I've been to this place about a zillion times. It's a really convenient go-to spot if you need a place to hang out around Bloor & Spadina: open late, lots of seats, casual atmosphere (the staff doesn't really seem to care if you hang out indefinitely as long as you behave yourself). I haven't eaten much there, to be honest, but the soup of the day is actually pretty good and of course there's the famous cakes that everyone else here reviews. I find them pretty good and have tried a few different varieties over the years; no disappointments. I enjoy window-shopping the pastry case to see what's new. The coffee is...well, it's ok. But really, my review is more for the ease and the convenience of the place. I'm glad it's there and hope it continues to be for some time.
