I've been visiting a new coffee shop just about everyday since arriving in Toronto and The Common wins the award for friendliest service and best iced coffee. The chocolate chip banana muffins were fantastic too. My friend from NYC was completely speechless when they broke out REAL organic milk in a glass jug and had to skim the cream off the top. It's the little things that count, right?
One con: Lack of seating. Hot and muggy inside, no place to sit outside, and the medical spa next door wouldn't let us sit on their ledge. Not cool. You'll wait a bit for a chair outside, or better yet just take it to go and walk over to dufferin grove park.
