I only wish that Bulldog was closer to home... Open a Parkdale location pretty please?
I used to frequent Bulldog quite often when living downtown. It's a charming little place hidden on a downtown side street. Little known fact: Bulldog was on TV's "Restaurant Makeover" several years ago - hence the new looking, clean-lined décor. Apparently, it didn't look quite so great before the makeover.
Appearance aside, Bulldog espresso is to die for. Get yourself a cappuccino - Their milk foam is of the thick, dense, delicious kind. Their latte art is equally lovely. Ladies - you'll likely get a heart. Gentlemen - a very pretty espresso milk foam leaf will be coming your way.
I recommend the Bulldog patio on a sunny spring or summer day. There's a tall tree overhanging the patio, and more tall trees lining the street, so you really won't feel like you're sipping your cappuccino in the middle of a bustling downtown street.
