| - This place is by the corner on a strip of restaurants/stores on Yonge St. Specifically, it's north of Sheppard (north of the Government Passport office). Parking wise might be a little tricky - there are street parking available and a few paid parking lots.
There are interior and patio seats available - so it's a nice date spot or catch-up spot with friends. Inside is bright, trendy with a wide selection of baked goods and drink menu.
I guess you can call this a sister store of Chatime - you can use vicinity points on their Chatime drinks only, and those drinks include your classic grass jelly roasted milk tea.
They do serve specialty cafe related drinks - and this is the one I tried. It is a Matcha Black Sesame Latte (served cold with less sugar). Nice presentation of the drink, as you can easily see the black sesame at the bottle and matcha at the top. The drink itself was ok, more on the bitter end and heavy on the black sesame. The combination didn't fit to what I thought it would be, but it was worth a try to taste my curiosity.
Their pastries are also worth a try. Although it is a little pricey (average around $5), but it has a lot of interesting fusion flavors such as Croissant (Matcha, Thai Milk Tea), Bread (Earl Grey, Lychee).The Earl Grey is definitely a popular one (and also my favourite). They have samples available for you to taste, which I thought was nice gesture.
If you are in the neighborhood or craving coffee/Chatime, this is a place to swing by and also grab a few tea snacks if you have the appetite.
