After spending two years on wheels, the Pista Café Mobile finally found an address of its own in the heart of Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie, in Montreal. The goal was to make a shift from being a nomad café to become a sedentary one, while still keeping a street stall feel.

The location, on the corner of Beaubien and Saint-Vallier, allowed for a simple and refreshing concept. Les Ateliers Guyon created a cozy and luminous spot where the inside recreates the outside.
The Café is divided in two separate sections. On one side lies a long bench, its colors soft and lively, allowing the location’s natural light to shine. On the other, the service section is hemmed in a container-inspired workspace where customers get served as if they were sitting on a food truck stool, waiting for their order. Within this workspace there’s even a place designed especially for the tricycle as there is a little workshop where it can be stored, repaired and admired by the patrons.
