Until December 16th, Presse Café branches in Cyprus, in collaboration with Young Volunteers (a charitable organization that helps kids in need), are inviting people to put presents under their Christmas trees to be distributed later to the kids, right on time for Christmas. What a great thought!
For a quick getaway, here is the event's advertising...in Greek of course!
Since October 22nd, Presse Café welcomes the Société de Transports de Laval drivers who waited almost two years for a café to open in their building.
With its comfy seats, fireplace, large artworks and warm colors, this Presse Café is an inviting spot where people enjoy to come breathe, eat and drink.
Our franchisees, Sylvie Bédard and Hugo B. Beaulieu, were delighted to have received compliments and positive feedback from their new, and already regular, customers who really adopted this warm and courteous Presse Café.
By the way, they've enjoyed the place so much that an impressive amount of prepaid Presse Café cards were sold since the opening. The story doesn't tell though if the customers bought them for themselves or to please those who are still uninitiated.
Come greet the new team! This Presse Café is opened weekdays, from 5 A.M. until 1:30 P.M.

Recently, Mr. Martin Dionne, franchisee of Presse Café Laurier Blvd. in Quebec and Mrs. Katy Gaudreault, accompanied by Mr. Maxime Laverdière, from Presse Café Delta in Quebec too, won brilliantly the Presse Café Barista certification.
To obtain this certification, baristas must have a good knowledge of the coffee world, the espresso and the specialty drinks so as to be able to prepare all those drinks in a particular time and according to our standard recipes and procedures.
Luckily, we had a camera with us during the presentation of the certificates to capture the pride in our franchisee's eyes.
After watching this amazing video by Tiger in a Jar, you may want to add honey in everything you eat and drink! Yummy!
You were wondering who is that lovely voice in our new Presse Café ads? Her name is Audrey Pageau-Marcotte, and she is the singer of a new Montreal band called Jolie jumper. Last time we heard about them, the group was in studio recording an album we can't wait to hear. For now, here is the videoclip of their song Pardon Me.
In the category «the video we would have liked to make», this one is for true espresso lovers. It's a nice introduction to the art of making the perfect cup. Fortunately, there is a lot more to say about espresso with a nice video too. Hopefully in the near future.
Besides being from different banners, what we have in commun with this barista is that we care about you in a way that we want to offer you the very best coffee. Miles away from what big fastfood chains are adding to their menu.
