First review for @superjetYYZ. Boy, does this strip need this coffee shop!
Super-Jet International was 5 days old when I stumbled on it on my way from the DuPont subway station. I feared I was hallucinating; how could there be an indie coffee shop in this place that only seems designed to get you from point A to point B without getting distracted along the way? But someone must have noticed, as I have, that all those Annex homesteaders and George Brown students have nowhere to get coffee that won't evoke a gag reflex. I know that's not nice to say but it's true.
UPDATE - It turns out that I was premature in my judgment of the Dupont Strip. Good stuff lays eastward. There will be reviews on this soon.
On to the happy news! Coffee so good you will not want to disrupt it with sweeteners. Please, try it before you think you have to mask the flavour just because you are on Dupont; it's really good. Unpretentious friendly service from the proprietor, frequent flyer cards that you will definitely want to use and, this morning, trip hop played at a volume that allows me to groove and still think! The space is comfortable but a bit spare at the moment; art arrives in a few weeks.
Only shortcoming; my scone was decent but nowhere up to the quality of the java. But the take-out container was a cute little paper Chinese-take out box; how can I resist?
There is definitely potential for doing a bit of work there. I've already mentioned that the music is of a style and volume to evoke your muse, but there is also wifi available and a few electrical outlets for keeping your equipment juiced.
Oh, I should mention that there is also loose-leaf tea and you can purchase David Lynch Coffee (yes, that David Lynch!).
Really like it here!
