Came here on a balmy Tuesday night, and Cold Tea was surprisingly packed! Rumor has it that there was a fresh BlogTO review that day, so it may have affected the volume. Lots of groups sitting outside. The patio has a very "backyard' feel to it, which is cool. It was so busy they brought out extra tables for the middle. Smoking is allowed, and there was lots of it.
The music was good- kind of old hip hop favourites like MIssy Elliott and Outkast.
Service is unpretentious. The vibe is pretty young feeling- didn't really see anyone who looked a day over 26.
I've been here three times so far and have always had fun. Never yet been drunk enough to try the pork buns, but it's always good to have goals.
