Is a Montreal Coffee Pioneer Being Priced Out of Saint-Henri?

Café Saint-Henri, a trailblazer of third wave, artisanal coffee in Montreal, is done, apparently, in Saint-Henri.

Dear Saint-Henri... the last 5 yrs has been an incredible journey. Thank you. #tooexpensiveforus pic.twitter.com/9yrTMQmvX4

This is the second café to ostensibly close in the area in recent months—though to be fair, Buck15 is expected to return from a long hiatus on June 13. A staff member at Café Saint-Henri was unable to comment today but a well-placed source tells Eater that the coffee shop's lease is good for another year. Café Saint-Henri also operates outlets in Verdun and the Latin Quarter. Stay tuned for more details as they develop.
