I've been meaning to check out Grey Tiger since they opened as I'm always interested in new vegan spots. This wasn't ideal timing because we just ate some snacks at Bunners, but I just wanted a coffee and to check the place out. Unfortunately this plan didn't jibe well with the person taking my order. Since I was with someone else we were informed that my partner should order something too. Well, she didn't want anything.
The place was completely empty, we were literally the only patrons in the place so I'm not sure what the problem was. And we were at an engagement party earlier so we definitely didn't look like a couple of scumbags looking to take a nap at a table.
I was so shocked by their behavior I actually asked if I should change my order to "to go" and they passive-aggressively let me know that we were allowed to stay and drink the coffee. It was the most awkward coffee I've had in Toronto. I basically pounded it, then we got out of there and I'm not planning on returning.
The americano was ok, the mug was covered in fresh espresso splatters so they might want to check out the machine.
tl;dr If you go with anyone else make sure you are all ordering something. Which shouldn't be a problem most of the time, but hey, maybe someone you're with isn't hungry?
