Melk Café Sun Life

the matcha here has built a quiet reputation among the downtown lunch crowd, and if you're cutting through rue metcalfe on a weekday, it's worth stopping for. sun life square draws a mix of office workers and people in transit, which means melk moves at a real pace rather than a slow, studied one. the coffee program keeps up. very strongly regarded by people who come back regularly, and repeat customers in this part of montreal tend to know their options. you don't stay loyal to a place on metcalfe just out of habit. cold brew is a solid call in the warmer months, and the espresso-based drinks hold their own against a neighborhood that isn't short on alternatives. finish with a matcha latte before the afternoon shift hits.
