In most Bay Street towers, there's always high traffic and loud noises, especially around lunch time, which probably adds to the stress of having a Bay Street job. There's no way for anyone to have any Zen or down time in the financial district! And we all need to recharge at the midway point in order to keep on trucking until it's finally time for us to go home and sleep and repeat our daily craziness.
However, this Second Cup is not so bad as the crowded food courts in the financial district. It's spacious and I always manage to find a table to myself so I could enjoy their delicious coffees with a book. I take a late lunch, so probably that's why I can always get a seat, but I took lunch at noon this week and I still managed to find a seat and table to myself.
I'm always here, so all hail me, the Dutchess of this Second Cup! But if you could be so kind, try not to come here during the off peak lunch hours, I like my space. =P
