As I walked up Yonge I had in my mind that I would stop at the Starbuck's at Yonge and College for a tea and some forced reading of academic articles - but I always dread trying to find a chair/table in Starbuck's or pretty much any other coffee/tea place.
Then I looked up and saw a pleasant perch in the window of what turned otu to be Golden Mint. I ventured inside and after pondering my choice, I order a mug of Peach Roibos - yummy :) The only challenge here was convincing myself not to order one of the delicious-looking desserts - maybe next time:)
With tax, the tea was $2.12 and there was no searching for a chair since the place wasn't packed. I will definitely be returning. I like the opportunity for a little variety (unlike most other coffee places that serve tea) and the service was friendly.
