| - As a dog walker in the Queen West 'hood, the White Squirrel has been my saviour time and time again! It is the only place in the area where you can stroll up with a group of dogs and order a life-saving beverage (hot or cold) from the take-out window, never having to go inside. It only takes a minute, and for those with dogs or strollers, it is a godsend!
The White Squirrel lemonade ($2.50) is the BEST IN TORONTO! It's wonderfully fresh and spritzer-like, with the optional mint making it more like an alcohol-free mojito. And if you're ultra-environmentally conscious, you can forgo the (biodegradable) cup and take it to the park in a glass...they trust that you will return it. ;)
For vegans, the tofu & chickpea empanada is healthy, filling, and yummy, but they sell out early!
All of the staff have been nothing but fast, friendly and helpful, and I stop there 4-5 times/week so trust me, I would know! If other reviewers claim otherwise, I would suggest that their experiences are more a reflection on themselves than the White Squirrel staff.
