Now Hiring Being a barista at Cortado Tasting Room means to be on stage and performing. However, more often than not, we are in the back stage, carrying out daily tasks that contribute to our customers' experience. We are looking for those who love to share coffee passion with customers. But more importantly, we are looking for those who appreciate and value the little responsibilities and supports that add up to a positive and fulfilling working environment.
If you are interested in a FT or PT position to grow within the specialty coffee industry, please send in your resume, cover letter, and availability to info@cortadotastingroom.com
We are looking for people to start training soon, and to start working full shifts in September.

Has anyone noticed that Joe hasn’t been at work in forever? Or that when he is in the café, he’s been brimming with (even more) giddy energy? That’s because July has been a BIG month for him! Joe got married to his Gina a couple of weeks ago (our very own Beth was their officiator), AND see that bump under the dress (swipe!) They’re expecting a baby barista in February! We are so happy for them both and excited to teach those little hands to make some quality espresso as soon as they can shout “12 oz oat milk latte!” 😄 #love #marriage #babycarriage #whatisthesmallestsizeofapron @ Cortado Tasting Room - Coffee
The many colours of @monogramco are now decorating our shelves (and tables. And the inside of our mugs). Come pick a colour - every one’s a winner.

It was hot so @catieturner_ took this picture of a cold brew cloud, but it was so hot that Catie came in and said “There may not be a cloud in the sky, but there may be one in your cup!” for a caption suggestion. So we’re treating her for mild heatstroke.

Coffee was amazing, staff were so nice! Would be back for sure. My only suggestion would be that the seating wasn’t very comfy, didn’t feel cozy and pretty limited for how busy it was. Guess that’s a good thing, I would have loved to have been able to ask some questions about the unique coffees they have there and what they mean. But I didn’t really feel it appropriate due to how packed it was. I will try to go back when it’s less busy to experiment a little. Great experience though.
I ordered cappuccino and asked that coffee will be not roasted much. Asked that taste will be more like Latte. I was charged for cappuccino and for Latte too! Capuchino was bitter, roasted much not tasty at all. But it cost more than at Starbaks. Never will back there.
Absolutely the best coffee I have had in North America. I’ve been searching for something that would give me a similar taste and quality to what I have had in Europe. My first sip took me back to that first morning in Paris last year.
On top of the high quality coffee, the service was phenomenal. Such care was taken to make sure we were happy with our experience. Cortado Tasting Room will be a regular stop for me!
I've been here many times now and still have no complaints. The staff are very friendly, the atmosphere is cozy, the drinks are excellent (and there are so many to choose from!), and I'm not sure if it was the owner whom helped me to pick out coffee beans for my new French press, but he was very knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. He knows his stuff, and loves what he does.. so refreshing to see. Cortado is my #1 (and only) cafe of choice.
Quite possibly the best coffee in the city. Friendly staff, cool atmosphere and great snacks. Highly recommend.
This place will become a regular for me, and an opportunity to experiment with preparing coffee in different ways. Staff are friendly and the coffee was great. We had a chicken on bagel and it was a generous size.
What an incredible spot! The lavender lemon balm kombucha I had on tap was absolutely delicious! Definitely will be returning for more :)
Favourite place to get coffee, food, relax, and get some work done! Such an inviting atmosphere with some of the best staff and management I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. The large variety/specialty of products and not only knowledgable but caring staff take the coffee experience to another level and will be a weekly/daily spot for me from now on. I encourage anyone who hasn't had the opportunity to check Cortado out to make it their next coffee stop! Truly a wonderful business that will never disappoint and will most likely grow to be your favourite too!
11/10 would recommend! Friendliest staff, awesome environment, and amazing coffee!
Great soup of the day yesterday (Saturday, December 1)hope to see it served again. Great friendly, knowledgeable staff, great food and excellent coffee! We visit at least twice a weekit is our favorite coffee spot in HRM!
Friendly service, clean environment, lots of natural light, open atmosphere and the smoothest Americano I’ve ever had the pleasure to enjoy. Lucky me, it’s right in my community. ☕️😊
Cortado is bar none, my absolute favorite coffee spot in HRM, and probably anywhere truth be told. Went in tonight with my wife, and was treated to excellent service and excellent product again as usual. This place has a great vibe, the decor is very modern casual with exposed beams, wooden tables and just an overall relaxed environment. This evening I even got to pick the tunes, so we listened to some Gary Clark Jr., while sipping on our Apple Cider Chai's which were oh-so-delicious. Joe always has a welcoming smile, and you can tell that it's important for him to see his customer's satisfied. I really feel privileged to have this place in my neighborhood and I hope to enjoy it for years to come.
Thanks Joe for the cold brew suggestion. It was perfect for the hockey game!
My favorite coffee shop, amazing customer service! �
Love the atmosphere; friendly customers filled the place. My sandwich was full of flavor and generous. I had the BEST Chi Latte ever.and I have ordered many all over HRM and beyond!
Love that you offer Bulletproof Coffee, it was delicious! I’ll be back for sure.
Cortado is like no other. They have a cool and elegant style and an amazing presentation. The food is delicious and flavourful. They have a variety of healthy options and lots of yummy treats too. The people are super nice and can answer all of your questions. If you haven't been you defiantly have to check it out!
What an amazing place what a great coffee and what awesome food choices. I'm so happy that we have some amazing people like Alex here in Hali that take the time and risk and open such amazing businesses. I appreciate your business very much and you have me hooked as a long time customer now.
I finally visited this fine, spacious establishment after hearing great reviews! The ambience was inviting and staff very accommodating and patient as I asked many questions. I watched a special coffee being brewed for a friend and since there were so many options and couldn't decide, I ended up having the best cappuccino ever! I will be back. A wonderful variety of yummy lunch items and snacks await! Returning very soon!
Best place in the city to grab a hot beverage, great drinks and service!
