"Flyjin Café, Old Montréal West. Named after the term used by the Japanese to describe expats fleeing their country at the onset of World War II, Flyjin is a tucked away coffee shop offering a warm yet eclectic atmosphere. Having taken over the historic Café Vieux-Port, one of the first coffee shops in the city, Flyjin replaced its predecessor’s diner-dive vibe with one-of-a-kind stools, nearly-monochrome colours, and faceless decals adorning the walls. On a given weekday, you’ll find office workers sipping on coffee brewed from locally-roasted Kittel beans, and enjoying quick and welcome break from their busy schedules."
