I frequent this place on a very regular basis, the staff is great and knowledgable, the vibe in this place is relaxed and very friendly. If you want to go in, grab a seat and talk to the other customers about Rob Ford and his latest antics, you can, I actually did that this morning. I was sitting by the window photographing my muffin and cappuccino and the 2 guys sitting beside me brought up Rob Ford in their conversation and I started to laugh. Thats all it took for me to get involved in the conversation. I'm not a big political guy (so we'll leave it at that) but everyone has an opinion about our so called Mayor Rob Ford. I'm not going to talk about that right now (there's a time and place for that and this isn't the right time nor place) so back to the topic on hand, Tango Palace Coffee Company. You walk into Tango and the first thing you notice is the antique feel Tango has, with stained glass chandeliers, the very comfy older style armed chairs, the statue hanging from the wall and the beautiful espresso machine. The display case is filled with fresh muffins, cookies, biscotti, croissants, gluten free options and the list goes on. Everything looks so delicious that your choice can be very difficult. I grabbed a cappuccino and a chocolate chip muffin (for some reason chocolate chip muffins are a must have for me, my girlfriend always makes fun of me for it) and sat down right by the window, had a great cappuccino, muffin, did some people watching and had a great conversation with some of the other locals. What else could you ask for on a Tues morning. Tango Palace Coffee Company has been in the hood for 17 yrs and is still going strong. It's hasn't been affected by any of the competition that has been popping up in recent years. That right there tells you about the quality, knowledge and care Tango has for it's consumers.\n\nCheck out my full review here.\n\nhttp://aboutyourhood.com/2013/11/06/tango-palace-coffee-company/"^^ .
