It’s always the right time to enjoy a great cup of coffee! Montreal is known for its impressive variety of independent cafés and coffee shops. Stop in at one of them in between BIXI trips.
On September 30, any trip of 30 minutes or less will be free. Plus, you can get free coffee, thanks to our partner Café Barista! To highlight the theme of the month, find the Barista mobile at Brébeuf / Rachel station in La Fontaine park between 11am and 4pm and let yourself be spoiled with a good cup of coffee!
Or check out one of these five local establishments:
Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie – Boyer / Beaubien station
Celebrate fall at this charming café & bakery.
2. Pastel Rita
Mile-End – Bernard / Clark station
With a coffee and pastry in hand, you’ll be seeing life through rose-coloured glasses.
Petite-Bourgogne – Duvernay / Charlevoix station
The perfect relaxed place to sip a good cup of coffee with friends.
4. Station W
Verdun – De l’Église/Edna station
Here it’s not just the coffee that’s good—the grilled cheese sandwiches are to die for!
5. Hélico
Hochelaga-Maisonneuve – Desjardins/Ontario station
A new little café in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district that’s worth the trip.
