I don't know who Stella is, but I feel like I've sat in her living room and had coffee on her patio. Stella's is an ABSOLUTE gem right off of St. Clair W. The inside looks like a comfy, but hip living room with a fabulous coffee bar staffed by the friendliest of people. There's long worn wooden table for larger groups or getting to know your neighbours. The patio is tiny, but quaint. I feel like I'm sitting at a quiet Parisienne cafe.
The boy and I shared a delicious grilled veggie panini and had a coffee each. The eggplant, zucchini and red pepper had a nice char, and still has good bite to it. The coffees were delicious and smooth. Our sweet tooth wasn't aching that day, but if it was, there were delicious raspberry scones and mini chocolates to remedy that at anytime.
I have a feeling this will become my local coffee haunt. So if you're in the area, come visit Stella and I'll probably be there too!
