| - For those that don't know about TP, here is the scoop: think consistently good. It's not the absolute best place to get your coffee/tea/sweets in Queen E, but it's damn good and very cozy, with some pretty welcoming staff. The bevvies tend to be on the pricier side, but I have yet to have one that wasn't good. Not great - but always good. Same for the sweet treats. Again, not cheap (usually $3-6 for cookies, scones, bars, etc) but there's always a huge selection. Was there last week and for $16 got 2 tea lattes, a cookie and a date square. The best part about TP is the atmosphere. It has a very intimate and comfy vibe, and usually is packed with people from all walks of life (and ages). This is it's real draw. Good tunes, and if you score one of the high-back chairs, it's easy to twiddle away hours on the free wifi, on a book or even just people watching. Not stroller friendly at all, which is a huge draw back for the Leslieville 'hood, but it does have a clean washroom and a few chairs outside to nest in, weather permitting.
