    Went with work group. Although the website/ voice message said no reservation for lunch, the manager told us that they take reservations. The menu has many vegetarian options. The place is spacious. Portion is generous and taste good. I had their signature shakshuka with salad challah bread. The bread is very fresh and tasty. Please note they put compulsory 18% gratuity for big groups, but the service was attentive. Will come back for work team lunch.

    We came here on a whim around lunch time. It was a pretty large establishment when we walked inside, and it was packed. There was a tablet by the door so we just put our names on the wait list. We waited for a couple minutes before we got seated, so wait time wasn't too bad. I really liked the ambiance and design inside. Originally I wanted to get a tiramisu, but the waiter told me that they were already sold out. It was around 11:30 in the morning and they were already out of tiramisu? I was so disappointed, but I knew that I had to come back because I'm sure their tiramisu was that good. For drinks, we got a London Fog with oat milk and I got an Iced Latte with oat milk. Both drinks were good, the oat milk blended well with the espresso. It was rich yet creamy. I forgot what exactly my boyfriend ordered. But it had eggplant. I think it might've been the Sabbich Bowl. His entree was very good, it was flavorful and savory. Since I had my heart set on the tiramisu and something along those lines, I just ordered the Belgian Waffle. That was pretty good too, the waffle texture was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. All the components were great, I loved the sliced bananas and nutella with the waffle. There were so many different textures on this dessert plate but it came together so well. It definitely satisfied my sweet tooth. Lastly, service was excellent. I was actually impressed. Though they were very busy and the staff were running around the place for a good couple minutes, we got seated quickly. Our server was awesome, he was helpful and funny. We were taken care of and had a pleasant experience. This was actually my last meal before heading to the airport, so I'm happy that my trip ended on a good note. I look forward to coming back again and trying other things on their menu, and the tiramisu!

    Stopped by this cafe after walking around Toronto with some friends. They have a good deal in the afternoon where you can get any coffee and pastry for 7 dollars. The drinks and cocktails are all 7 dollars as well which was listed outside on a sign. My friends ordered coffee and pastries for 7 dollars and I got a croissant and red sangria. For the price this place was good and the service was decent. A lot of people were working or meeting up with people in this location.

    Mediterranean omelette

    Went on a Sunday morning, they were very busy so the waiters were slow. The kebabs shakshuka was so so, meat was more of a strong flavour like lamb taste, the Mediterranean omelette was good. Breads are made fresh and delicious. Cappuccino was really nice and creamy. English breakfast tea was too light, stronger would be much better.

    Iced Matcha Latte

    It's a perfect spot for your warm weekends! They have indoor sitting and outdoor sitting for you to enjoy! It's was a very hot day when i visited so i only ordered Iced Matcha Latte! I will definitely recommend to try this, it was amazing :) Service wise i will say they are good. I will say 7/10.

    Cafe Landwer is always a reliable spot. The menu is extensive with lots of choices. Service was friendly and efficient, and the space has a nice café feel. Overall, it makes for a solid default option when you want a dependable meal in the area.

    I had searched for a nearby breakfast cafe in yelp and came across Cafe Landwer. I read through some of the feedback and thought I'd try it out myself. I ordered the Merguez Shashaka and it was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. I also ordered an OJ and Espresso. Team are friendly and service is great!

    Halloumi Shakshouka

    Came in at 10 on a Sunday and seated quickly but it's crowded. Halloumi Shakshouka was amazing. Service was quick and attentive with waiters and manager both checking.

    Aperol Spritz

    Located at the corner of Front St and Scott St across from Berzcy Park, even though the address is Yonge St. It was late afternoon so not busy. We were immediately seated on the outdoor patio. A Mediterranean place. They have brunch which I hear is good, pastries, various drinks and coffees, pizza, burgers, pastas and Mediterranean options. Service was attentive and friendly. We had: Sharwarma sandwich: 4/5 - this was nicely prepared. The chicken was tender and you can taste all the various sauces and ingredients individually. Served with a basic salad which had fresh. Chicken skewer main: 3/5. The chicken in its own didn't have much flavour. You needed the sauce to help it along. The rice was flaky but nothing exceptional. Kofta skewer main: 2.5/5. The beef and lamb ground meat texture was a bit rough. Needed more seasoning. Like the chicken, it needed the sauce to improve it. Aperol spritz - 4/5. Nicely done. Serving sizes were reasonable. Reasonable prices.

    This Yonge & Front location is Cafe Landwer's newest location. The interior has a more retro diner look compared to the other locations, but still with the same bright and casual ambience. There are patio seatings outside in the summer, with good view of the park nearby. The menu is the same as in all other locations. Excellent food as usual - everything is delicious. They're most famous for their shakshouka, bread, and breakfast / brunch items, but other items on the menu are also equally good (fish, sabich bowl, falafels, etc.). There are lots of vegan, vegetarian, and plant-based options. Their vegan omelette (made of quinoa and chickpea flour) is one of my favourite items to get here. It comes as part of Farmer's Breakfast (if you ask to make it vegan), or it can be ordered as a stand-alone item. The sides are also really good - mujaddra (rice with lentils and spices), rice (with carrots, almonds, and caramelized onions), green vegetables (freshly cooked broccoli, green beans, and spinach), side salad, chopped salad, etc. Everything is fresh.

    This place has been on my list ever since it opened. After all, the menu looked well rounded. I ordered the salmon fish. Unfortunately, it was overcooked - it was dry and chewy. Luckily, the server came by to ask how our dishes were, so I told her the situation. She was very apologetic and rectified the overcooked fish by replacing it with another that was moist and tender. I really appreciate the service given here and would go back to give them another chance.

    Granola yoghurt

    Visited this place for Saturday breakfast-we tried the granola yoghurt and omelette dish. All were delicious along with their coffee. Service was friendly and fast. The place gets busy and there was quite a line by the time we left (around mid-morning) so recommend getting in early to avoid a wait. Charming old-world ambiance. Vibe was fun and friendly.

Where you order and where you pick up your drink isn't designed to allow for a good flow for customers, aside from that, I have no complaints. I ordered a latte and grabbed two goodies for the road, a raspberry croissant and a ginger molasses cookie. The staff working were welcoming and friendly and my items were ready rather quickly. Once I got back to my hotel, I settled in to enjoy and get some work done. My latte was smooth and creamy and just what I needed to get my day started. My raspberry croissant was beautiful and packed full of flavor. The filling wasn't too sweet and there was just the right amount inside. I saved my cookie for a snack while I traveled home later that day. I love how it had chunks of sugared ginger on top. The cookie had the perfect amount ​of chew to it and the ginger on top added an extra burst of ginger. It was lovely. I'm so glad I found this cafe on Yelp and I highly suggest you pay them a visit. I'm still dreaming of all the pastries I didn't get to try.

Not the best experience. Food wise -- nothing on the menu stood out. But I wouldn't say we picked this spot for their food. Drinks were at best mid for the price. Could definitely get a nice fancy cocktail at that price point. Service was lacking, had to constantly look for our server. Table beside us was a couple whom were also not happy. But again, come for the views.

This place looks like a fairly typical breakfast spot, offering a good amount of seating, large menus for both breakfast and Lunch, and of course, a ton of different pancake options! I'm usually not someone who orders temporary menu items or specials, but the second I saw the S'More Toffee Lava Pancakes I almost had a heart attack, so of course, I ordered the stupid pancakes to avoid such an problem. The food didn't take too long to come out, and they looked even better in person than they did in the menu. Maybe I'm just a little over enthusiastic about these pancakes, but I can pretty confidently say these may of been the best pancakes I've ever had. They were big, fluffy, and this plate did not skimp on the toppings at all. Overall, Stacked Pancake & Breakfast has definitely become a go-to spot for me when returning to Toronto. The food here was phenomenal and even though it took us almost 30 minutes for someone to give us a bill and let us pay, the pancakes were too good for me to get hung up on that.
