I recently discovered Rooster Coffee (corner of Jarvis & Charles) and it has a nice loft feel, nice coffee bar area overlooking the street, which is great for a laptop working session and for people watching.
They also carry a mini patio if you want to take your work and people watching skills outside.
Best of all they have been playing some dope music every time I've been here. A little Jill Scott, Tribe Called Quest, Warren G and Ms. Badu to name a few. They just played LL featuring Boyz II Men 'Hey Lover.' Talk about way back play back!
Ohh and the coffee is pretty good, the staff is nice and they also have lots of yummy sweet baked treats to choose from.
Bonus: They have a selection of dairy free milks to choose from - soy, coconut and almond.
This is my new go to!
Well done Rooster, I like you.
