About Pourquoi Pas espresso bar

A third-wave espresso bar on Rue Atateken in the heart of Montreal's Gay Village. Owners Max and Ben pour single-origin beans from Pilot and Escape roasters, with careful latte art and Aeropress options. The homemade iced orange blossom tea is the standout non-coffee order. Listed in the Village Montréal official business directory and covered by Fugues, Quebec's LGBTQ+ publication, as a Village establishment. Rotating local artwork lines the walls and is available for purchase. Small summer patio facing the street.
