  • Not sure why this place has such a good rating, with so many coffee shops in the area (in the junction, bloor west, roncesvalles)  there's no way a "coffee shop" should have a 4.5 star rating with NO WIFI IMHO. These days, it's a basic offering. Maybe I should have been tipped off by the empty Cafe w the exception of one lady getting a to-go cup and someone drinking a beer at the bar. I came here at 3pm. These were my observations in the 30 mins I was there: - LOUD: the music is loud here, so much so that the staff and patrons at the bar drinking beer are all screaming to talk over each other. To me it was car-stereo-blazing loud. - NO wifi. Go be productive elsewhere.  - NO menu anywhere, so you're stuck having this conversation: C: so what do you have here? Barista: Everything. C: Oh ok, do you have hot chocolate? B: No. C: Do you have decaf coffee here? B: No. C: Can you do a chai latte? B: No, sorry. C: uh OK so what do you serve here? B: Brew coffee, Americanos, caffeinated teas... Righttt so not "everything". I was looking for something decaf but nothing was avail. Without a menu, not only do you now know what is available, you don't know how much things cost. FYI a cup of brew coffee is $2.  Hubby said it was decent and gave it a 7/10. Oh, And you'll also have to ask the barista for the cream.  Depending on what you want to do in a coffee shop (or bar in this case), it may be helpful to know that the lighting is dim here and provided entirely by Edison light bulbs. So unless you score one of the two two-seater tables by the window, it might be difficult to read a book or do paperwork here. Good aspects: - music selection was decent  - appears to turn into a bar in the evening;  has pin ball machines and sells records  - has beers on tap. - staff was nice enough, not her fault they don't serve anything decaf or lack wifi In the end, this is definitely more of a social bar setting rather than a quiet catch up with your friend or getting work done environment which is what I was looking for at the time. I just wanted to try out a new place and wandered in.
