I spent a month in the hood, subletting a place that didn't have the Internet, so I ended up checking out quite a number of cafes to do my work remotely. I'd say that this place was my favourite of them all, chill atmosphere, decent non pop music, great coffee (but to be fair I'm not a coffee person) and excellent tea. They are very meticulous about everything that they make here - carefully chosen ingredients and mixing, including the cocktails they serve. Lastly, their bagels are Montreal style oven baked, which sealed the deal for me even more.
