Reviews of Narrow Espresso (Coffee Shop)

kaatja walsh

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from the owner. Witnessed him treating staff very poorly and with no respect on multiple occasions.

This is a hidden gem! The shop is tiny, with only one table, but the coffee is phenomenal! I'll have to come up with more excuses to be in this part of town...

This is my favourite coffee shop where I can get the coffee as exact as how I want to. You guys really made good coffee.

Tim Kearns

Tiny but amazing coffee. Being from Seattle, I LIKE my coffee a lot and really enjoyed this place.

Kyle B

Amazing customer service and great espresso!

Liz Martin

Always fresh coffee and friendly service. Great baked goods also including gluten free if you need something on the go.

Jack Wong

There's always those days, even at your go-to coffee shop which usually serves good coffee, when the brew is just "bleh" and you just blew $3-4. Narrow Espresso is one of those rare spots where that never happens -- AJ and his team are consummate perfectionists. And at the same time, super down-to-earth and the friendliest service!

Great, cozy cafe! Tiny tables for two, with lots of varieties of coffee to choose from!

Adam Glynn

Great coffee and great staff

Jennifer Bazinet

Great little place! We were in Halifax last week and this was about 5 min from our AirBnB so we decided to check it out. We went back 3 or 4 times throughout the week. Coffee was good, and we loved the big cookies. We were hoping to try the breakfast sandwiches but didn't get around to it. The service was always prompt and friendly and the milk station was well-stocked. It is literally a narrow space, but they've made room for some limited seating, which I would have happily taken advantage of if we'd had more time.

Sarah Marie Lavers

Excellent service and excellent coffee!

Dan Fleet

Mark Landry

Super friendly service in a very cool atmosphere along with the best coffee on the peninsula. A real hidden gem

Deedee Slye

Best espresso in the city.

Keisha Turner

The staff are always happy to great my dog, husband and I. Good coffee but my fave thing is that they are dog friendly - they even give my pup a treat every morning when we visit. 5 stars because he loves going there, too!

Serena Drouillard

Hands down best coffee in the city. Not to mention best service and snacks! <3<3

James MacLean

Had a flavored coffee that's was very tasty

Sarah Rumley

This place is fantastic! Wicked good coffee, baked goods AND customer service.

DP Steyn

I absolutely love this place and feel that it's one of the most underrated independent coffee shops in the area. I think part of the reason for that is that it's so easy to m issue when walking by. Literally blink and you miss it, especially if you're distracted by the crowds often present at Darrell's next door. Their espresso is of course out of this world, with all of their beans carefully picked from fair trade sources. They offer a variety of other drinks of course, but I would recommend starting with at least an espresso. They also make delicious breakfast sandwiches and all sorts of other snacks are available too. It's incredibly cramped inside, but that adds to the charm (as long as it isn't too too busy). Highly recommend this place and will return again and again in the future.

Casper Pineo

I love this little coffee shop! It's such a gem. The coffee/lattes are very high quality and the staff are really great and friendly. Overall one of best cafes in town.

Jaclyn Buell

BEST COFFEE IN HALIFAX! The coffee is perfect, run by a sweet man, in the cutest shop on Fenwick, this is a hidden gem in HRM ♥

Andrew Clarke

Love the coffee here and friendly staff, but sometimes not open when they say they are. Baked goods seem to have changed recently. Still good, but feel like they were better in the past.

Aerial Luz

Narrow Espresso is the best coffee shop in the universe ! Fine coffee :) :) Cappuccinos are magical, matcha latte is beautiful, sandwiches are full of life and the staff is sweet. We will dream about Narrow forever and ever. Thank you for every moment!! <3

Kevin & Sheila Purkiss

Such good espresso and super nice staff.

Stephanie Rector

Very friendly staff!

Pierre Roy

Cozy, excellent espresso. Worth it. Smiling staff.

Kaylee Kapital

Cute

Kenneth Carmichael

On my first visit here we ordered a Delicious Matcha Latte, mango smoothie, a freshly baked cinnamon roll and cranberry muffin each. I am sure the rest of the menu is also delicious. Great friendly staff and reasonable pricing with convenient hours

Pauline Naillon

The best coffee, tchai latte and macha latte in town ! The staff is so nice and joyful ! Always a pleasure to step inside this place and talk to them for a while... ????????

Ian MacDonald

Excellent coffee in a really unique little space.

Chris McCain

Very nice espresso and associated drinks, plus totally decent food. Solid muffins, breakfast sandwiches that are just what you'll want when you think, "breakfast sandwich." Very tiny - best for takeout. Typically very, very friendly staff.

Rich Irving

Always, always, always a great cup of coffee. They use the North Mountain brew of coffee. I get a dark roast, but usually it’s the ginger latte that is my go to. Pair it with a cinnamon bun and you have the perfect start to the day. The owner and his staff are the best - always friendly, great service. Best coffee place in Halifax hands down.

Youngju Yoo

Just had a 'Honeygingertea' from this small tiny cafe and it is a genuine my grandma's cold remedy! Really loved it! And it's gonna be my favorite this winter!!

Anthony Crawford

Top notch espresso drinks and superb cookies. I had silky smooth cappuccino just the way I like it.

Valentina Chong

I just randomly went into this Cafe, ordered latte that day, I have to be honest that was the best latte I’ve ever had in Halifax. Wish they can open more often!!

Steph

If I could give 0 stars, I would. Very poor behavior towards staff, and doesn’t care on how he treats them in front of customers.

Laura Funicelli

Quite possibly the best espresso I’ve had in the city. Very helpful, friendly staff. Quaint and charming little space. A new favourite.

J.B. Robertson

Great little coffee shop.

bob cratchit

Staff are so warm and inviting, and the drinks and food are delicious!

NiceWishes

looks can be deceiving. this place might be small and easily missed But their service is good and seasonal drinks are good.

JD Karab

Friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere. Cozy and cute. Awesome baked goods and great organic coffee.

Matthew Howatt

They exemplify good customer service.

Jeremy W

Really (reeeaaalllyyyy) small place with only a few tables, but if you're stopping in the coffee and espresso tastes great and the different cookies are good as well. :)

F C

Best "little" coffee shop

C V

Great little place tucked away! Best chai tea latte around.

장광수

What do you hesitate? It's Narrow Espresso!!

Tom Jung

Best take away cafe in halifax.

Don Nots

Excellent coffee and treats! Nice, friendly staff. What is great is that all prices are tax included.

Philippe Robert-Staehler

Wonderfully charming place with friendly staff!

Ruth Vandergeest

Super cute little spot. The staff are friendly and down for a chat. I got a latte with almond milk, and as is the risk, it was a little cardboardy. I don't drink coffee, but my friends say their coffee is fantastic.

Kyle Connolly

Extremely friendly staff, great food and incredible coffee. There are lots of regulars for a reason! Very highly recommend!

Kyle Pyke

Best Iced Americano in Halifax, also a super cute spot in general!

bill marrow

High chairs, narrow everything as promised. Disappointed to see north mountain coffee more than a few places carry these beans in Halifax. 2 dollar coffee was taxes included in price. Lots of size options. Will return for the espresso.

Alexander Sutherland

Great coffee, very friendly staff and a very unique location (its narrow)!

David Iruegas

This place has the absolute best coffee and espresso in town, hands down. The owner works really hard, he's super friendly, and he has awesome staff. No matter how snowy it gets, the sidewalk is always shoveled. Their food is top notch and well priced, and I've even seen the owner dump out and remake an espresso that he wasn't satisfied with selling. Altogether this place gets an A+. The only downside is how small the place is. If it were bigger, I would definitely spend more time there.

Justin Lynch

Excellent coffee, great machines, friendly service and nice finishes.

Barry Smith

great

Teri Yoon

This place is a gem. A cozy and well designed place with authentic specialty fair traded coffees. I think this place makes the best coffee around and I love their homemade treats!

Andrew Golding

Fantastic little coffee shop, super friendly.

dan grey

Spent 4$ on a double shot espresso, received 1/2 a shot... Sick, need caffine. Very dissatisfied.

Kat B

Best coffee shop in Halifax. The owner is the nicest person and makes sure that he and his staff provide the best customer service possible. And of course, the food and drinks are outstanding. Thank you Narrow Espresso!!

Robynne Cox

Great coffee and excellent service! Its my go to coffee shop!

danny hornsby

Very good coffee

A S

Recommended. Dark roast is consistent. Real maple syrup and honey for sweetener. Fresh muffins are unexpectedly homemade-tasting and the energy cookies are unusually tasty and filling. Polite unencumbered environment.

Natasha Danais

Stopped coming here when the owner told me that they actively donate to the police department. (Coffee is good, scones are buttery and flakey)

Rohan Upadhyay

I am all in love with this place. I tried here mostly all Tea they have and all are good but CHAI LATTE is top of all Awesome. If you are a Chai lover and an Indian I bet you, you will not get better Chai Tea anyother place in Halifax then they have. I tried black coffee with espresso in it, it was also cool. Moreover, As an Indian I should test Samosa everywhere ???? so I tested here and guess what? It was awesome as well. I mean change your name to AWESOME ESPRESSO???? I suggest at least visit once and try their best items, you will definitely enjoy it.

Alex Bryant

Probably my favourite coffee shops in the city. The coffee here is consistently delicious and the atmosphere is endearing. Good vegetarian options and fantastic macaroons. Serving North Mountain coffee, Narrow is a little place stuffed between Darrell’s and a Subway—it’s small enough that “busy” means more than 3 customers in the space. If you are on your own and looking for somewhere to study, check this place out but don't expect to be able to spread out on their small tables. If you aren’t into Celine Dion, make sure to bring headphones.
