| - Although there are already a ton of cafes in Kensington, Fika sets itself apart with the Swedish-influenced design and vibe. I could see myself easily spending a relaxed afternoon here reading. It's quiet and not too claustrophobic (compared to Moonbeam for example). The coffee is decent, but for a hot summer day, I definitely recommend the Fika iced coffee. It's flavoured with cardamom and fresh mint and tastes amazing!!
Other details make Fika special: fresh flowers at your table, picnic blankets, a serene back patio (complete with hammock), kid-friendliness (crayons and paper, a change table in the washroom)...
I haven't tried the food items yet, but they looked delicious (croissants, cookies, ice cream sandwiches). Prices run a bit high, but the quality of the experience is worth it.
