About Café Binocle

Café Binocle is a Montreal coffee roaster that roasts its beans in a zero-emission electric roaster. The approach shows that great coffee and a lighter footprint can go together.

It suits coffee drinkers who want to support a local roaster with a clear environmental commitment. Pick up a bag for your morning routine, and ask for a grind that suits your coffee maker if you do not grind at home. A bag also makes a simple gift for a coffee-loving friend or a host. It is a small roaster rooted on the island of Montreal, part of the city's busy coffee scene.
