If you're GF Not Worth Jumping Through the Hoops…read more When I found this place online, I was so excited. When one must follow a gluten-free diet, it is so nice to find places where you can eat what everyone else gets to enjoy. This was anything but enjoyable. I was planning a little Halloween getaway to Kingston and searching for a new and exciting breakfast place to stop on my way there. I found Heaffles and read through their website--I'm always very careful and vet my restaurants before the trip and plan food meticulously, you have to when you cannot eat gluten. The site stated that if you want a gluten free waffle, you must call 24 hours ahead of time. I immediately thought that was ridiculous (that eliminates any possibility of a GF person walk-in from eating there) but messaged them on Instagram. I asked if I could message then and schedule or did a I have to call. They told me I must call the day before. Pain in the bum, but I set a reminder in my phone and did so. The next day, I show up. Such a cute place and the breakfast that kicks off a trip always makes me so happy. We don't eat out much at all, living so rurally. It had also been ages since I'd enjoyed a GF waffle, so excitement was high. This place has a ton of potential. The seating is cute, the bathrooms clean and so beautifully decorated. There is even a little cubby with cushions that would make it feel as though one was having breakfast in bed. I really did fall in love with the space. There didn't appear to me to be a traditional server comes to your table. You walk in and place your order at the counter. I ordered a Flat White to drink along with a water and a gluten-free coconut rush. The young lady at the counter was very quick to tell me that they had a customer coming in to get a GF waffle and that they only had enough batter for one waffle and that I would need to try again and call 24 hours beforehand. Right before I told her I was that customer, my brain was like, what? You have enough batter for ONE waffle??? I make GF stuff all the time. It is NOT that expensive. And what if you mess up that ONE waffle (and they did because she didn't listen to me)? I said, "Oh, I called yesterday." And I had driven a very long way. I would hate for anyone else to do that and end up disappointed. After that, I was allowed to order my waffle. Coconut is my favourite sweet flavour, but it came with strawberries and strawberry syrup. I told her THREE times I didn't want the strawberries or the syrup. Strawberry jam, jelly syrup...I hate them all, also cannot stand cooked fruit. She told me she could put the strawberries on the side and that they were uncooked. I said that was okay, but reiterated AGAIN that I do not want or like the strawberry syrup. I thought I might get my drinks at the counter, but she said they would bring everything to my table. I sat within view of the counter by the window. I assumed, as at most places, the drinks would come out first. I had started on the Terra Health heartburn kit to kick my PPI script and needed to take the supplements before eating. Some ladies came in after me and they got their drink order while I sat and waited. The waffle came out, and I was too panicked by not taking my supplements to pay that much attention and told them I needed some water and that I didn't have my coffee yet. They came back in a few minutes and in the meantime, I saw that the waffle I'd paid nearly $30 for, along with a very tiny flat white coffee, was drenched...every inch in yucky strawberry syrup. I'm a silver lining kind of girl, so I told myself to try it, maybe my tastes have changed. Nope. It was this strong, chemically strawberry flavour that made me gag. Talk about disappointed. At this point it was late in the morning and I was starving. I opened up the waffle (the size, even if they'd managed to listen to my order was not worth what I paid) and ate some of the filling out. The only waffle that had no nasty syrup was at the fold and I ate the four bites I could. The coffee was literally 3 swallows. I left hungry and angry. And in all that time, no one ever came back to ask me how the order was...and I knew I couldn't send it back because that was their ONE GF waffle batter of the day. I had to stop at Wendy's and spend another $10 for a bunless burger after. I would never go back. The ask and not having the batter available is beyond RIDICULOUS, despite the fact they don't listen, which makes a GF person VERY nervous. You couldn't pay me to eat there again. Poor service, poor value and food I couldn't stomach. Not for me.

Food 4/5 Service 5/5…read moreAmbiance 4/5 Food: I got the smoked bacon Cronut for hubby & also the classic tiramisu for us to share. Hubby loves the smoked bacon cronut. The Tiramisu was really good as well. Service: Service has improved here since they opened. Looks like they hired more experienced staff not kids who didn't even know how to make change from cash. The guy that was manning the service counter knew what he was doing & everything went smoothly. Ambiance: The decor is bright white walls & pastel colours. The music isn't loud anymore, which I like. There was a good amount of people at the cafe but it wasn't crowded. I think this place is better now & I will continue to come back & try their other items.

There are a wide variety of dessert and snack choices to pick from. I believe one goes there to try their drinks. I was there to try their bingsu which is Korean shaved ice. The strawberry bingsu was light and refreshing. However, the price is on the steep side due to the size of the bowl. Reality, ice doesn't cost that much money. Overall, it was a nice experience and one can chill there for an hour.

The creme brulee donut - the brioche is wonderfully soft inside, while crispy on outside and with the creme topping with some creme inside the dough - and the crunchy bruleed sugar on top makes for an amazing combo that really works. A mix of different textures. I really loved the fried creme sando as well. Really crunchy and when you bit down there is the custard waiting for you oozing out. Just wonderful contrast of textures. Highly recommended.

I preferred the Biscoff one a little more as the taro one had a little bit of an artificial flavor. I also ordered a mango drink which was super refreshing. We enjoyed everything so much that my friend and I decided to go back a second time while on our trip! This time I ordered a matcha cubed croissant and it was so so so good and definitely hit the spot. We also got a few freebies including croissant cookies & small samples of their soft serve. Major bonus: there is a parking lot and a cute little back patio!

Located on Yonge Street, Kream Dessert…read moreis a standalone cafe with its own parking lot - (a bonus, considering how busy Yonge St is and how crowded the parking lots can be behind the shops)! I felt like I was transported back to Korea. There is a display case with cakes, pudding, and sandwiches and another where all the pastries (Kream bombs) are beautifully put out. These pastries are self serve - tongs and trays are provided for you to bring to the cash register area to purchase. I love that there are a variety of drinks. Everything looked so delicious and decadent. My friend and I ordered a matcha and strawberry matcha kream spanner. They were both so sweet and rich in flavour - I really enjoyed it. The tarot kream bomb was also a wonderful dessert. There were so many flavours to pick from and they all looked so good. We decided to go with the tarot, which did not disappoint. This is a cafe I would come back to - I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a cute spot to hangout solo or with friends/ family. There's a couple seating and cute decor located on the same floor. There's additional seating upstairs, with board games and books for you to enjoy.

Food 5/5 Drink 4/5…read moreService 3/5 Vibe 5/5 Super super aesthetically, pleasing store. Was very excited to try their drinks and food. I think service was all right, but I'm happy that a lot of their Bakery items are actually made in house which means it is mostly fresh. I got the ice latte and a couple pastry items. My personal favorite was the almond croissant as for the latte. I think it was quite smooth, i had pay for simple syrup as i like my latte with a bit of sugar, which I thought it was usually free (thats on me, I was just too focused on decor and didn't notice until I got home) The only pain is they don't have parking so it's not the most convenient to get there unless I walk over. Still cute store tho!

Food wise, the pistachio croissant was well balanced and flakey! The pistachio cream inside wasn't overwhelming and it was just the perfect amount of sweetness. Highly recommend this cafe for a quality cup of coffee and a sweet treat.

Tried this place out with a few friends last Sunday morning…read more Pretty busy spot, but we were still able to find some seating even though it's pretty limited. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We all ordered drinks and also a few of the baked goods to share since we were just snacking. The Cheddar Chive Scone was the best out of what we chose -- so buttery and moist! Logistically, it's a little awkward since there's not much space from the door to the order counter, so when busy, you would have to wait in line out the door. Also the pick-up area for drinks is a little tight since you have to walk towards the middle of the shop and then walk back.

We went in one morning and found ourselves seats right by the window, perfect for people and dog watching while enjoying our coffee with a side of banana bread and a very delicious rhubarb scone.

Absolutely no regrets! Their basque cheesecake looks so good also and will definitely go back to try it (maybe even this weekend!). I'm happy we have this gem in the neighbourhhood!
