Third-wave coffee & honest café fare, in the heart of the Plateau.
Founded in 2009, the original Café Névé opened on rue Rachel, in the Little Portugal corner of Montréal's Plateau. It was the shared dream of professional barista Luke Spicer and Montréal entrepreneur François Larose — built on a shoestring budget and a couple of sleepless months, with a simple idea: offer the neighbourhood a welcoming place to enjoy great coffee.
From that first room, designed by the two founders for comfort and conversation, Névé grew into one of the city's coffee landmarks — a spot for students, locals and coffee lovers alike.
We serve third-wave coffee: carefully sourced beans, dialled-in espresso and clean filter brews. Alongside the cup, an honest, homemade café menu — pastries, sandwiches and the little things that make a café feel like home.
What we brew, and why: quality first, seasonality always, and a respect for the people who grow it.
