| - I had been watching and waiting in anticipation for this place to open after my love for the neighbourhood Red Rocket had started to dwindle a little.
I stopped in on a Wednesday morning about a week after Brickyard Grounds first opened. The space is beautifully renovated and inviting. Somewhere you could grab a coffee and plop down with the morning paper or your laptop.
The wonderfully friendly owners, Sophie and Lefteris, were manning the shop that day so we were given a detailed overview of the cafe's offerings which included an arsenal of winter warm-up beverages (coffee, hot apple cider, hot chocolate) but also a full menu of sandwiches, salads, baked goods, etc. They also mentioned they will be offering rotisserie chicken to go for those wanting to pick up a quick meal for the family on a week night.
With the newly renovated Greenwood Park (swimming, playground, skating, off-leash dog park) next door they picked an ideal location to set up shop. I can see myself stopping here regularly on my way to the park with my dog and kid.
Oh, forgot to mention that I ordered a cappuccino, which was just perfect.
