I am so, so glad this place opened up on Spadines, giving us local workers an alternative to Starbucks and Second Cup. And what really knocks this one out of the park for me is the massive, gorgeous space they've got. It's open, airy, full of light and offers plenty of seating. You can chill at one of the two large communal tables or head to the cozier upstairs to lounge in a comfy chair and join the nerds on computers (I can say this because I am one of them). Free Wi-Fi!
The espresso is quite nice, making for luscious iced bevvies and tummy warming cappuccinos. The fresh yogurt with granola and rhubarb wasn't quite as amazing as it sounds (I think I wanted more rhubarb) but the maple scone has called my name on more than one occasion. And their obese low-fat muffins are pretty tempting... OH, and it's always nice to find a cafe with smiling, chatty baristas too, ya know?
