Coffee Tea in Montreal

I learned that in the business district of Montreal, they don’t know how to pour a good espresso. 6 coffee shops all poured espresso like drip, well more like tea actually. I may have missed a better shop, but I think 6 was a good enough sample. Patrick confirmed that no good coffee can be found downtown and assured me that there is good coffee in Mileend (especially) and Plateau neighborhoods. Beer however, was not an issue!
