A friend told me about this new coffee shop that had opened on 17th called Waves. Other friends have told me that it's a chain out of Vancouver. I figured "new Canadian chain? Cool. Worth checking out." And so I did.
On a service note, I had no problems here. The staff/owners are all very friendly and asked every customer that came in while I was there a question about themselves or where they worked. Two thumbs up there guys.
The selection of teas and coffees wasn't amazing, but it wasn't that bad either. I stuck to a cinnamon roiboos tea and enjoyed my cup by the wannabe fire place.
Where Waves fell down was with their internet. It's free to use, but is spotty at best. Two thumbs down as a place to hang out for a drink with your laptop in tow.
I'm with Devon B in the opinion that this Waves location is wasting their potential. But they're new here... so maybe they'll hit it yet?
