| - Granted, it has something of a hippie-computer-geek-dorm-room decor (overgrown plants, mismatched furniture, dusty programming manuals).
BUT Linux serves a rockin' espresso and has tasty sandwiches. Vibe is chill, music is good, staff is friendly, if a bit zoned-out, and you can sit here from 8 am till 6 pm mooching off of the free wi-fi, nursing a pot of Jasmine tea without a single dirty look.
Big windows look onto Harbord or Grace, and it's across from Bickford Park (dog-central).
That said, service is at a snail's pace, so if you order food, be prepared to wait as each tomato is sliced with great care, your cheese is aged while you wait, etc. And while gluten-free and vegan desserts don't have to taste like cardboard, here, unfortunately, they do.
