| - We serendipitously stumbled upon this Tehran-inspired cafe while strolling around downtown Toronto. The clean and modern decor was what caused us to pause and review the menu. After all, first impressions matter! However, The Poet Cafe is more than just a pretty cafe. Each time we came here for breakfast, the coffee and our sandwiches were made with a lot of care. We're talking so much care that the sandwiches came wrapped and tied with a bow.
Their coffee beans are sourced from Pilot Coffee Roasters, and the lattes we had were smooth and slightly fruity. The first time, I had the Egg & Cheese Sandwich which was made up of pita bread, egg, labneh, feta, and walnut herb spread. It was delicious and made for a good snack. The second time, I had the Omelette Sandwich that consisted of pita bread, *two* eggs, beef sausage, and mozzarella. The sausage can be substituted for Persian mortadella if you so choose.
If I were a local, I would definitely camp out here to get some work done. The ambiance is quiet, Wi-Fi is reliable, and there is all the complimentary watermelon and cucumber infused water you can drink.
