Thanks to the Coffee Passport, I tried out Brooklyn Cafe. I probably wouldn't have otherwise, it's tucked into the section of St-Viateur that I rarely pass through, and open only during daytime (working) hours. \n\nThe coffee I had was fine. Nothing particularly amazing but not bad either, just unremarkable. The setup was interesting, Brooklyn is part cafe, part furniture shop, but I felt like I wasn't sure where I was supposed to be allowed to sit or roam with my coffee. The staff were very friendly, but it unfortunately friendly staff alone cannot make for an awesome experience. I dunno, the whole thing just didn't do it for me, though I really wanted it to.\n\nReading all these reviews, I think I may have to pass by again and try out the food, because that really seems to be where it's at. Might be tough, considering the opening hours and the fact I work 9-5 downtown, but perhaps a nice treat on a future day off.
