For 3 years this was my fav shop in Leslieville, but the Barista quality has been so inconsistent that I won't be back.... and It's not the beans, Cut Coffee is great! Mercury used to be one of the best now I'm sorry to say that if you want consistency you will need to go to Boxcar Social, Te Aro, Rooster or Buds (run by a former Mercury employee). Dark Horse's consistency is gone too, so don't go there either. Only 4 years ago in Toronto a $3.50 coffee used to be made by baristas that loved their craft, now that's become the normalized price for an espresso based drink and with that mentality the quality and consistency has been lost by Mercury. It's sad, because I loved Mercury for 3 years and through 2 owners who were usually at the shop training staff and maintaining quality control that's no longer the case.
