What an excellent cafe! It balances everything someone would want in a cafe, and quite well - you can't say the same about every cafe in Toronto, that's for sure.
It's a great place to hang out by yourself or with friends, and the hours are super - open until 9pm. The coffee is great - be sure to try their cappuccino, but the espresso and drip coffee are good too. . The baked goods are absolutely delicious, especially the scones. The staff are always hospitable and happy to chat, if they have the time. The food is quite good as well - had their schnitzel panini the other day, it was delicious.
Best part? Not a sneer in the place. That's important, given what's happening to most independent coffee shops in TO, wouldn't you say?
