| - Good amount of seating, friendly staff, certified fair trade and organic products - located just east of Port Credit in the Long Branch/Lakeshore West neighbourhood, this place is a decent space to get your coffee fix, to do some work, or to meet up with a small group. WiFi is available (it's their phone number, written down by the stir sticks and napkins), windows are big, lots of natural light.
First, parking. There's free parking in front of the shop for a maximum time of 1 hour.
Second, the products. Lots of pastries to choose from, and a good amount of drinks on the menu. I ordered a latte and a banana chocolate chip muffin, both of which were just okay to me. The latte was super foamy, I could barely find the latte in the cup. The muffin was also just okay but a bit dry (it wasn't bad, but to be honest, Black Goat Cafe just down the street has better muffins, in my opinion, and also made in house).
The winning point for me here is the space because they have a good amount of it (good spot to get some work done, read the paper, stop by after a morning run, or to meet up with friends), it has a great story (ethical, fair trade product choices), and staff are incredibly friendly.
I'll definitely be back again to try something else on the menu that I'll hopefully enjoy more - overall, this a place I'd recommend, support, and come back to.
