My friend and I have a nice-weather-on-Sunday plan, and I'll let you in on it:
Te Aro
I always get an Americano; he gets a latte. Sometimes we split a cookie or a scone, and I try to time it right and nab the last bite as he's fiddling with his phone to get a great snap of the foam art on top of his drink. Barristas = artists, y'all.
Warmer months? Outdoors for a prime people watching patio spot.
Cooler months? Indoors at the long communal wood table (5/5 on decor, including the large garage door that brings the outside in).
WE'Z GOTS OUR RITUAL DOWN PAT. And, chased with a stroll around Leslieville...wouldn't change a thing.
Yelp note: all you work-from-home-ers and freelancers: it's a great weekday place to tackle some work, too.
