| - One of my favourite spots in the whole Toronto area. You know, when you find spot that is very characteristic of the city-- that is The Only. Friendly vibe, many regulars (from hostel above), only great (!) music playing (you'll hear everything from Gorillaz/Pixies to Oldies to Electro versions of classical music).
Several times I stumbled on live bands playing in the cafe, mostly indie/ rock genres.
Great for: bringing open minded first dates; mingling alone with yourself, working passionately on computer, having relaxing coffee/beer late at night with friend.
My so far favourite drink in cafe is Matcha Latte, green tea with whipped cream, so thick you can eat it with spoon, bittersweet taste with hint of milk chocolate (well, that's what I smell there, but it is not included actually).
The bar is amazing, too: great collection of craft beer, and whenever I come there to try something new, the bartender kindly offers me to try first any of those before buying. Love it.
On Wednesdays (correct me if I'm wrong) they usually have dj coming with his vinyl records collection and he just plays them, rare and interesting tracks.
In summer don't forget to mingle in the back patio, only once we were chased off it by angry and annoying herd of bees, otherwise it is very pleasant and quiet place.
Oh, and did I forget: boardgames and pinball machine...?
