Review from Valerie G.

My review is less about the actual Nespresso bar than the company itself. I have been drinking Nespresso since 2006, I was on a trip to Paris and the apartement we rented had one, the rest as they say is history. Now a little about the product, the machines have been hit or miss over the years, (we have purchased mutiple ones to have in different homes 4 in total) D290 is the best one, the others have all broken down at one point or had issues. I must say that the service in getting these machines replaced has been very efficient and quick. The delivery services work very well also, my mom lives in a little remote place outside of Quebec (it is so remote they actually do not have an internet provider yet!!!)!, and she can order her nespresso pods online and have they are delivered with 48 hrs, so pretty good.
For those of you who travel, I have found that the cheapest place to buy the pods is NY city, I save about 10 Cents per coffee, so it is worth loading up when your there.
I figure that it is not cheap but for someone like mtself that has a once a day coffee habit it is worthwhile, the fact that I have not seen a coffee bean or grind laying around, and that fact that it is the perfcet coffee with crema each time is what makes me a huge fan.

As for the stores employees, I must say I find them all kinda full of hot air, and I can see why people think they are snobbish, but I think that is the image Nespresso wants. For my part they are always easy to deal with because all I ever say is gimme 10 sleeves of black, 10yello,10 kaki.....blablabla. -

Everyone is complaining that this place is pretentious...well that just happens to be one of the reasons why I come here!
I love the lay out of the store, it's always clean and they let you sample whatever flavours you want downstairs before you buy. The queue is crazy on the weekend so come on a week night if you can to avoid the mayhem. You can bring the capsules back for recycling and they keep all of your info on file so there is no need to remember anything, which is perfect for me.
Nespresso has made me a nicer person in the morning so I for one love this store and their product. -

I really enjoyed this place. Sitting at the bar, we got to witness the barista at work and man, did he take the job seriously. You would think that just pressing a button to make the coffee would make things simple, but the care used and combinations created made for a fine art.
You get the full selection of Nespresso coffees for each of the desserts so the possibilities are endless. I went for the simple espresso, after being guided through which kind would best suit my pallet.
My friends went for coffee ice cream blends, and I have to admit I was a little bit jealous.
They ambiance was elegant, and the patio was beautiful. A great place for visitors to the city to take a break from sight seeing, or for regulars to take a classy break from the day. -

Simply my favorite coffee place in Monteal and I really do enjoy their light original breakfast combinations!!! Ambiance and decor is amazing. As long as you don't mind the staff giving themselves an attitude

I've had the Nespresso Citiz Frother Combo with N36 wooden case, since it was launched and it's simply the best residential unit out there when combined with the high-quality 100% recylable Nespresso capsules. I'm digging the sustainable-organic-coffee-limited-edition capsule, right now! If you ask me, "Do not buy any other residential unit for this price range". I rate the PRODUCT: 5 STARS. ONLINE SERVICE, DELIVERY and SUPPORT: 5 STARS. Don't bother with the 2 Star boutique upstairs! It's a waste of time, unless you absolutely need a specific Nespreso product for a last minute dinner party (i.e. like more accessories or a display case). Usually women, experience more bitchy service than men at this boutique- for what reason? Your guess is as good as mine. But generally speaking, the service is... well... un service de merde, because you never know how it will go (50:50). So, as my mentor used to say, "Don't knock something, unless you can offer an improvement". So, here it is: Buy your Nespresso machine from Deco Decouverte, it comes with free assorted capsules to hold you off until you order your N36 wooden case which comes with even more free capsules, then order online what you need based on your preferences. The delivery service is impeccable- your product will arrive in 2-3days tops: no joke. And the service support is extremely friendly over the phone- I had an irregualr issue with my milk frother and they just sent me a new one. No questions asked. And to top it all off- here is the ultimate tip: twice a year, Deco decouverte offers a limited-time 10-20% coupon on ANY item in the store. Two years ago I landed on a 20% coupon... guess what I used it on? The guy in-line behind me freaked-out and bought one himself when he saw how I was applying it. It's all about the dealz!!! [I have nothing to say about the bar downstairs- besides: nice chill terrace in the spring/summer, with overpriced food/drinks (but then again, it wouldn't be a nice, chill Cresent St. terrace if it wasn't expensive to sit there. The crowd of customers is a tad stuffy, so make sure you go with good company to distract you from the pomp-fest, if u do decide to hangout there]

I love my espresso machine and the coffee but the staff in this shop
behave like snobs and it's unnecessary. They aren't selling $4000 hand bags they are selling coffee. These people need a serious attitude adjustment. I'd rather order on-line. -
Review from Laurent C.
Nespresso just opened in Montreal, same concept than in New York.
The place is stylish and you can have a coffee at the Bar on the ground floor and then buy your pods at the boutique on the first floor.
First the coffee is excellent, it comes from the small pods and you can have some nice food as well.
Seconf, you can buy the machine for your home (it is their objective of course) and then buy your pods online or in the location.
A good place to have a good espresso, latte or Cappuccino , the only small negative, you can feel from the service that the place is new. -

The MOST pretentious coffee shop I have ever been to. Unlike most of their newly launched stores around the world Nescafe has decided that they would serve both coffee and some food. The coffee comes in pods, the Nespresso pods. The wait staff snooty. I ordered a Machiatto Latte, and was served a Machiatto. When I mentioned that what they served me did not look at all like what I had ordered, I was told "the menus are printed in Switzerland and the items are not going to be exactly like the menu. I was offered a replacement Machiatto. I drank it to keep the peace, and it was comped. The prices are more than the Cafe de La Paix, but as the waiter proudly exclaimed most of our patrons are Europeans. Overpriced, snooty, and the so called food is nothing other than garbage. Stay away in droves.

On a short visit to Montréal I made my first stop was a visit Nespresso Boutique and it was a great experience, the staff was very helpful and knowledgeable... The food and coffee was amazing... I would definitely recommend Nespresso and I plan to come back on my next visit.
