Anyone who walks through the tunnel connecting the Eaton Centre and PVM knows that this small and - let's face it - boring strip has seen its share of boutiques and food joints opening and closing in no time. Heck, even the Tim Hortons closed down a while back! Needless to say, this place has truly brightened up a spot that needed its share of TLC and has become popular with good reason.
The owner, who started up 2 years ago working alone every day and selling (delicious) pastries made by his mom now attracts lineups of business men and women at lunch time. Staff of baristas has since then expanded and the team is delightful. Most importantly, the coffee is great. This place is awesome and definitely here to stay (a second Tunnel Espresso Bar has since opened at Peel subway station).
