| - I found R Squared on BlogTO and I wasn't disappointed at all coming here. I don't remember the name of my drink, it's orange mixed with something. ( it may sound nasty but hey, I tried it, I loved it!). It was something new for me. My friend ordered an espresso and said it's a bit bitter. But for me as a coffee lover, and after tasting it, the espresso here is pretty good. I mean, it's bitter but it doesn't have the "burn" taste at all. The server was nice and friendly. She helped my friend pick a pastry (a muffin, danish, I don't remember) since he was hungry and wanted something that goes well with his espresso. According to his comment, the pastry made the espresso less bitter and helped him to finish his drink.
We were there catching up about our hectic lives. Very funky but creative decorations and layouts, but fit perfectly in the Queen West neighbourhood. People there were busy catching up with work and I felt like a professional with an open macbook. I guess it was because of the atmosphere and people around made me feel that way.
It's a bit far from the subway. I know we could have taken the street car, but it was worth the walk in a warm, sunny day.:)
The price is fair for the quality, the art of the latte, and the atmosphere. I will definitely come back.
