It's a great space & something the neighbourhood really needs, however the coffee is horrible.\n\nAfter numerous visits, it seems that the staff have no idea how to make drinks. First visit, ordered a latte. Got the drink & there was so much foam I thought she gave me the wrong drink. Then I realized that I was the only customer there. I shrugged this off, and left to enjoy my now cappuccino.\n\nSecond visit, brought in a friend. Both got lattes. Same staff working. Both ended up with cappucinos. This time they tasted like 5 shots of bad espresso covered in foam. I think I had 2 sips before I gave up.\n\nThe last visit I got an iced coffee. Can't be that hard to mess up right? Wrong. I'm not sure what happened, but it was 90% milk, 8% ice & a drop of watered down brewed coffee. \n\nThe Birchcliff gets 2 stars because they carry non dairy milk & another star for the lovely space. But please, make better coffee."^^ . "5"^^ . "1"^^ . . "0"^^ .
