| - The location used to be Royal Bank, built in 1926. It's recently been (2-3 years ago) transformed into a cafe targeted for freelance and start-up workers.
Inside is absolutely gorgeous! The ceiling had very intricate and stunning engravings. You can also see the row of glass panes that were used by bank tellers.
You can become a member for reserved working spaces, but it's a tad bit expensive.
For food, I had an iced latte, mini donut and bread pudding.
The mini dark chocolate donut had roasted marshmellows on top with graham cracker crumbs. Small, but super rich, enough to satisfy your sweet craving :)
Bread pudding was made with brioche bread, with walnuts, coconut shavings, dark chocolate pieces, some peppery spices, and raisins, dipped in some syrup. I'm sure I missed other ingredients but that's all my unsophisticated taste buds could figure out :'). Was good, not overly sweet.
Iced latte was good, my favourite out of all other iced lattes I've tried so far actually.
I think everything came to ~$14? Latte was around $4.5, mini donut $3.5, bread pudding $4.5. It's definitely not cheap but everything tasted really good!
On a different occasion I also tried their chocolate and marshmellow cookie and affogato. Both super tasty, their espresso is also the best I've had so far.
