| - Located on the northwest corner of Adelaide Street East and Church Street (just across from Terroni), this is the new kid on the block of the Toronto cafe scene and it seems to have all the ingredients to be a pretty successful one - variety of fresh pastries, sandwiches, salads, delicious coffee, decent amount of seating, nice large windows with the sunlight streaming into the shop making for a nice cafe environment, cute and cheerful decor, and friendly staff.
I dropped by on a weekday morning for a treat and much-needed coffee and was pretty impressed. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the quality of the products are top-notch. I ordered a shortbread cookie and two coffees (one for a colleague - $2.25 each). The shortbread cookie (at $2.50) was denser than I expected, but buttery and delicious. I was really impressed with their drip coffee - which, as others have mentioned, they source from Propeller coffee in Toronto. I barely even had to add sugar - the beans weren't over roasted at all, and was wonderfully deep and delicious.
As of my visit last week, they hadn't received their espresso machine yet, so they were only serving drip coffee. However, it looks like they'll be getting it in soon, so I'm excited to come back and try out their specialty drinks. A great addition to the Toronto cafe scene, and I'll certainly be back!
For a shortbread cookie and two coffees, I paid $7.00.
