FINALLY someone read my mind and opened up an indie café in Port Credit! I mean there's nothing wrong with Starbucks/Second Cup, but another non-chain option would be nice and now, there is one, Archtop Café! Archtop Café is actually a transplant from Bolton and that location was HUGE in comparison. It was a café/musical instrument store/live music space, so you can imagine the size of the space. Anyway, this may not be an entirely fair review because I didn't have the coffee! It was later on in the afternoon and I had already had a giant cup of Joe in the AM, so I opted for a Matcha Tea Latté. Pretty good, Matcha could've been stronger, and next time, I'll ask for less ice chips! ;) I'd prefer more drink as opposed to ice for $5. Seating is quite limited at this location. Only a coupla bars with a few stools and that's it! Not really meant for dining in &/or studying/doing work on your lappie. I'll definitely be back to try their coffee and possibly food items, that's for sure! read more

Shocked at the violation of masking laws and mandated vaccine laws. No asking for proof of vaccination, people walking around unmasked. Owner and his partner unmasked. I felt unsafe. It was incredibly disrespectful to customers to ignore the law- and unlawful! I will not be back. read more

Came here specifically for "The Duo" which consists of espresso and ice cream! It is delicious and would definitely come back again for more! Only reason I gave it a four star is because of the price. $4.99 plus tax is quite pricey but all in all, it is yummy! Great summer coffee alternative. read more

Archtop Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

This place is great for a quick bite. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. They even modified their sandwich quite a bit to suit my diet at the time (being pregnant, I was nauseous to almost everything). The cook was able to create a sandwich that tasted amazing and didn't make me nauseous read more

This place is really great. I like to support local business so I sometimes go in here while I wait for my daughter in her karate class across the street. The staff is lovely. Very pleasant and I have noticed there are regulars who come in and they know their names. I order tea and watch the traffic go by at the big front window while I listen to great music. The oatmeal raisin cookie is delicious, as is the pumpkin muffin. I have not had any of their sandwiches but they smell great and they offer a gluten free option. The atmosphere is cool. I intend to buy a record player so I can buy records in here. :) I understand from another review that there is a lower level. I can't comment on the selection but the records that they have on display upstairs are awesome. read more

Love the tea lattes here! One of my favourite stops when in Port Credit. The roobios tea latte and London fog are a must for any tea lover. They don't over steep their tea, so there is no sense of bitterness. They also don't put an over abundance of sugar in it in comparison to other franchised cafes. I've enjoyed my cranberry baguette there (lightly toasted with butter) and their breakfast cookie. Their breakfast cookie is like a chocolate chip cookie on (healthy) beast mode, complete with pumpkin seeds and flax seeds to give it a chewy texture. It's super filling with all of the loaded fibre and protein. Any music and movie lover will love perusing through the old music and movies. Their used selection contains popular titles for dirt cheap. I plan on passing by in the near future to pick up $3.00 boxed DVD seasons and $1.00 movies. :) The atmosphere is warm and cozy with some little vinyls and record players on display. The staff is too - although I did pass by right at closing once and wasn't too warmly treated beyond the door. I don't blame them though. Stragglers! read more

Strolled into this cozy place late tonight. Delightfully surprised at the selection of comforting eats and wide selection of hot drinks. While the turkey brie sandwich I bought was one of the day's last, it was definitely much better than your average coffee chain's offerings. Brownie was as good as they ought to be despite not being made in house. Did not need another coffee this late at night, but the friendly staff gave me enough great recommendations for next time. Classic tunes and vinyl make Archtop cafe a wonderful standout with an ambience that really isn't matched anywhere else in Mississauga. read more

Apparently this place is owned by the café of the same name in Bolton. While this place is a lot smaller, they still maintain the same theme of vintage music (they have vinyl!). I had their roobis tea latte and it was nice and smooth. In terms of atmosphere, it's a nice mood, but there are only two tables and a little sitting bar area. Verdict: While your in Port Credit, drop by this place for a latte, coffee or tea to enjoy it while you enjoy the scenery by the lake. read more

I am surprised to see the positive reviews! We had a bad experience here and it wasn't just us. We waited a good 15 minutes for a simple soft serve and the owner & waitress blew us off when we asked how much longer. It was soft serve! And they weren't even that busy. But my review isn't based on our experience. While we were waiting, we saw the waitress repeatedly stare down a family (paying customers) with a crying infant. She even walked over to them. The family eventually felt so uncomfortable that they left. Not cool. read more

I would have given a zero out of five rating if I could, but I wouldn't be able to write this review. My boyfriend and I decided to drive 15 minutes away from home to this cafe because we saw numerous positive reviews and were craving for late night sweets. Little did we know that we would be driving towards disappointment. We had arrived about 20 minutes before closing attempting to open the door, which was already locked. We had also witnessed the employees leaving the cafe through the back door when the cafe should still be opened till 9pm. Apparently, staff are able to leave the cafe 20 minutes before closing and go to the Roc n' Doc's Bar next door. We are definitely never returning. read more

Cute little coffee shop! We had a mocha, a pumpkin latte and chocolate chip cookies, and we were very happy with our orders. Love the chocolate chip cookies read more

Unique offerings and incredible staff. The coffee is for a true lover of the beverage, ranging in roasts and flavour profiles. I haven't tried the snacks here -- they didn't seem very appealing to my palette -- but many patrons were enjoying baked goods. read more

Great coffee shop. Nice to have a unique alternative to the big chains. I've enjoyed the coffees and they have nice loose leaf teas as well.

Love this little spot! Fabulous lattes, sandwiches are always fresh, tasty, with quality ingredients. The lemon meringue tart (if you're lucky to come in on the right day) is the best you'll ever have, and if you're a scone lover keep an eye out for the cheddar & chive. In the past year I've become re-acquainted with vinyl, and Archtop has a great selection of new and used LP's. A great little spot, very personable owner and staff, parking right in front, and a real warmth to the place. What else could you ask for? read more

Had coffee the other day coffee was cold and watery after asking for a strong flavour the scone was good people are nice will visit again things happen no big deal. First coffee of the day is important for me. read more

Despite the very quick and very late night visit I thus far see no reason for anything less than a 5 star. I did my usual latte test, simply asked for a small latte. They had raw sugar and cinnamon you can top with after. The latte was very smooth! I think that a lot of people would agree that it's very good, as most Canadians (from my experience) tend to shy away from anything too strong (hence the popularity of Tim Hortons). Now I like my coffee extremely bold but I totally appreciated this drink. I got a buttertart to-go; to eat today after my run. I heated it up in the oven and oh my goodness!! The crust was amazing and the inside to die for. I am so impressed. They do not make them in house but they are made fresh daily for them. The decor is very cute. Music theme as you can deduct from the photos. And it is just so refreshing to have an independent coffee shop back in Port Credit after the loss of The Guilty Dog (still bitter about that). The prices are totally reasonable 2.99 for the latte and small was actually pretty big. Second Cup is right next door but I would come here over a chain any day. read more

Friendly staff.. great selection of albums.. drop by for a coffee.. you won't be disappointed!

Very friendly Barista, the Mocha was on point as it was not too sweet but still rich, just the way I like it. Did not sit inside but would come back. read more

Came just to try the espresso and ice cream and it was worth it! Don't think a lot of people know there is ice cream in this place but damn was it good! read more

Went here for the first time today. Decor is nice, place is small but there are a few spots to sit inside and a couple of chairs and tables just outside. I liked the music motif and the old school records for purchase, good taste in tunes. I got a Mocha and a butter tart and my fiancee had a Cappuccino. Tart was delicious and the mocha was good but I actually enjoyed the sip of my fiancees cappuccino more. Don't know how often we will go back , but would recommend checking them out. read more

The atmosphere is great. Cozy little cafe with a great collection of vinyl, CDs and a few movies. Will definitely be back for a browse to accompany a caffeinated beverage. read more

Randomly ended up in here when I was walking by with my cousin and she wanted a bottle of water. The owner was very sweet and we had a nice discussion about all the vegan/vegetarian options as I'm a vegetarian who is lactose intolerant. She was very friendly. I was curious to know what a "dirty chai latte" is (chai latte with a shot of espresso) and decided to share one with my cousin. It was so delicious that we ended up going back after half an hour for another one. I recommend getting it with soy or almond milk, tastes excellent. read more

A break from all the chain coffee shops. Not much seating but cozy with a nice vibe. Wi-Fi available.

Delicious & reasonable drinks - I recommend the chai latte.

Found this cafe by accident and I loved it! As for the cafe selections, I'd say it's very comparable to any other local cafe but what made it stand out was of course the record display and selections which was really eye-catching and diverse. The service was good and the ambiance is really nice. I would definitely recommend! read more

Really nice place! Loved the food, I got a pre packaged salad. Super creative place with records downstairs available for purchase. Worker was very nice and helpful! Definitely coming back sometime soon. Would recommend to others!! read more

I'm a latte enthusiast. They're one of the reasons I enjoy travelling in Europe. I've had some really good ones and some really bad ones. I kept an open mind for this place, as I always do everywhere. As I was speaking with the barista, I could tell she knew what she was doing. I had asked for hemp milk and was curious how she'd work with it. Beautiful. I'm not even simping haha The first sip I took: Not burnt, nor did it burn. I took my second sip for taste and did it have flavour! The smile on my face right now haha I want more of this. This was my first visit so I can't critique the other beverages, but they had a nice selection. Oh and they have a lot of milk alternatives- no other place has offered me hemp milk yet. The barista (Bailey) was very friendly and pleasant to speak with. Am I returning? Yes. It was raining otherwise I'd have loved to sit on their patio. Btw, this review is for the shop nearby that opened Sept 11 (the two locations are 30sec walking distance from each other- the other seemed great too). read more

Absolutely wonderful. It is very small and very cozy:) We went there on Tuesday evening for a coffee and a small bite. Everything we ate was fantastic, coffee was fabulous! Service was outstanding! I love their establishment and I hope they have more traffic and more business, maybe they can build a patio at the back there their parking lot is :) With more small cocktail tables :) Anyways, we loved the place :) read more

Finally a coffee shop that knows the art of making a great cup of coffee as well as creating an enjoyable ambience. While I haven't tried the food yet, lots of patrons have and it looks fabulous! read more

Finally a coffee shop that gets it right! Great coffee/vinyl shop with that nostalgia feel. Highly recommend while visiting quaint village of Port Credit. read more

I was always thinking for a cafe like this is exactly what port credit needs, and just like that it appeared. definitely enjoyed going here, the owner was super friendly and i love that the baked goods are all fresh and made with simple ingredients. they carry quite a large selection of vinyl at very reasonable prices with titles people actually want to buy not random stuff, going to be bringing my friends here for sure read more

An excellent array of used DVDs, CDs and, of course, new and used vinyl! Love the great selection they have for vinyl, if they don't have what you're looking for in new vinyl they'll probably have it in used. Used vinyl is fairly priced, based off of the condition of the vinyl and how rare it is. Browsing through Archtop's assortment of media is always better when accompanied by a hot drink and yummy snack. Love the grilled veggie sandwich! read more

This place was very promising as it was the only indy coffee shop to open in the area. Too bad it suffers from extremely poor customer service. I was there with my family during the southside shuffle and had an extremely rude and incompetent person serving me. They charged me $ 1 for an ice cream cone just for my baby, when I asked if it had sugar in it, they said no. I tasted it and it was sweet, I then went back to them and requested they just give me a plain cone instead of a waffle cone. They said sure, but that it would be another $ 1. You gotta be kidding me! Most places would give a small baby an ice cream cone for free. Not these guys! Plus there was literally no one in the coffee shop. That's what happens when you get money hungry and rude. Like I said, too bad, as I was here before for coffee and had a good experience. If the owner is reading this, I would love to talk to you about my experience and point out exactly who I dealt with there. Oh, and me and my family love indy coffee shops. I guess Ill be going to Starbucks in Port Credit instead. read more
