| - There is a certain magic which occurs when you cruise the city and randomly decide to make a left or right turn and see where it takes you. Yesterday, a few misguided turns landed me somewhere along Eglington near avenue road and into a hip little cafe.
The sandwich board out front made the claim "Best Americano In The City!" That statement is Madness old Bean, simply madness!!! OK, I'll bite. I entered in and immediately fell in love with this chic urban inspired loft-y cafe. Walls adorned in brick, booths set up in high back wood finishes, urban tables and chairs abound AND.... plenty of outlets - Finally a coffee shop that gets it! People like ME need places to work all day, and outlets and WiFi (and Coffee) are our lifeblood!
Saddling up in a cozy booth with my main gal Evelyn W, we set up shop for the day and made our way to the counter. I called them out on their "Best of..." claim and I was told to take a seat and they'd bring it out.
Served hot and in a to-go cup, the Americano was well balanced, not too bitter and got the tingles going in my toes. There was very little aftertaste and I was buzzing by the time I got half way through!
Verdict: A
Definitely in the top 3 I've had in the city and top 5 in the GTA! Worth the visit, but warning, you'll want to stay for more than just one!
