What is the difference between bistros, Van Houtte Coffee Services and Van Houtte brand®?

VAN HOUTTE®

In 1919, Albert-Louis Van Houtte opened his first fine grocery store in Montreal where he focused on his true passion: coffee.  Ever since, the know-how of this Master Roaster has continued to shine under the brand that bears his name.  With its rich, premium-quality coffee and European single-batch roasting process that draws out all of the flavours and aromas of the beans, the Van Houtte® brand offers coffee lovers a rich and satisfying experience with every cup.
