This place was my go too during my Masters at UofT. They serve great tasting coffee. If you have a few minutes to spare, try their Ethiopian french press coffee, just amazing! Its a "fancy" coffee shop with Starbucks / 2nd cup style prices, but way better imo. Their snacks are good too. They have good lunch specials as well. They use very fresh ingredients in their sandwiches and it comes through in the taste! Remember to mention your student status as you will get a discount.
This place does get crowded however, and they have a great patio at the back, which allows smoking. They seem to have a decent drink / wine selection, although I have never tried either. I think the quality is good because most of their staff has been there for a while plus the owners are usually there, so customer service levels are maintained. The head chef is also the owner and they usually accommodate any special requests for food!
