| - I'll admit that I'm not quite sure how the non-profit element of this place comes into play, but I am all for fair trade/birds+bees friendly coffee, making consumers more conscious of what they're buying, giving back to the community, etc.
The Good:
- the concept, including the coffee beans, that this café+ sells
- the coffee is SOLID (also stay-in mug was HUGE!)
- even though it's basically a warehouse space, the mix of mishmash furniture gives it a homey feel
- staff were friendly and nice
The Needs Improvement:
- friend ordered banana bread and it was as as dry as sawdust, like crumbly dry
***banana bread could've been gluten-free, but still dry nevertheless***
- I ordered a granola bar, portion was generous, but it too was quite dry, fell apart
Location is probably what kills this place. It is in a weird, industrial area of Mississauga, in a somewhat new-ish commercial plaza, on a dead-end street. So unless you have business in the area/you are lost, you won't really end up here!
There's a dental office, various types of medical offices, a law office, and a bunch of other offices. I don't think there are other food/drink vendors in this plaza. So the location of this place is not ideal. Would probably do better in an area with more pedestrian traffic, re: Port Credit, Streetsville, etc.
Would definitely visit again, but I'm rarely if ever in this area!
