La Fábrica café is owned by German-Canadian couple, Christian and Amber Mier. He’s a former pro cyclist and the chief coffee aficionado; she makes La Fábrica tick. It’s obvious the care and attention that they have lavished on the enterprise.
Before visiting we were told that Christian and Amber Meier’s coffee ruins all other coffee for you. They roast the beans in town, at Espresso Mafia and the menu gives more detail than I’ve ever seen on how my espresso will be prepared: “18 grams of coffee, extracted for approximately 30 seconds to deliver 36 grams of liquid gold. Parameters may change with our rotating coffee selections.”
So when the espresso arrives, expectations are high. Luckily we’re not disappointed. The deep, rich, chocolatey perfection is excellent. The bagels that accompany it are chewy and delicious: the nordic bagel generously smothered in herb cream cheese, smoked salmon and shaved cucumber, the pulled pork bagel in tender pulled pork, melted cheese, and mango salsa.
