    A cute cafe serving great coffee! Commence Coffee opened recently and I'm so happy it's here! Every time I've visited, there are folks ordering, chilling, and having delicious looking croissants. Love to see a local coffee place thriving! I've only come here for take out and every drink has been a hit. Huge fan of the Honey Cream Latte (iced), Coconut Hojicha (iced), and Spanish Latte (hot). Their croissants are also gigantic! I had the Hojicha Croissant and I had to split it into 2 breakfasts. I saw people sitting around with their laptops, taking meetings, so even though I didn't sit in, it looks like a very comfortable place to do so. I'm looking forward to returning. Maybe for a nice smoked salmon croissant lunch, or for more delicious lattes.

    This new spot in Markham at Hwy 48 and 16th Avenue is clean, with a vast drink menu and also offers a brunch items. There are a few high tables with two standard ones. I really enjoyed the iced London meets Kyoto iced drink. Perfect amount of sweetness made of earl grey with earthy matcha and oat milk. The salmon croissant is always a good choice!!! Make sure to come early especially during the weekend.

    New coffee shop in Markham! There's a very calming aura when you enter the shop. There's some tables to sit at, with some outlets along the walls. The menu is extensive, with lots of variety from coffee shops, iced tea drinks, and smoothies, and refreshers. They also have a display case with some pastries. My order: London Meets Kyoto ($7.75). Very refreshing! You really taste the mix of earl grey and matcha with a hint of sweetness. Dirty Coconut Jasmine ($6.75). The espresso is strong and there's a floral aftertaste from the jasmine. This was also a good mix of flavours. The staff recommended us the top drinks (anything from the Barista Special menu). Overall, very clean space, free parking, fare prices, nice staff, and a calming/quiet space to get work done if needed.

    Really nice, clean, local coffee shop with chill vibes. I appreciate the beautiful latte art and also the interesting scone flavours.

    Such a lovely new addition to the neighborhood! The space is beautifully designed with a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends or just enjoying some quiet time with a good cup of coffee. I tried their Latte and it was smooth, rich, and well-balanced. The staff were super friendly too, which made the experience even better. Definitely a new go-to spot for me. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

    Didn't realize this place only opened up 2 weeks ago. I was looking for sun tea. I ended up trying the strawberry matcha which was quite tasty. I'm glad there is a nice coffee shop in my neck of the woods. The barista was friendly and it had a chill vibe.

Their designs are abundant on the website and they really get the design to a tee, it was PERFECT. Flavour selection is pretty good and I did have a short call with them while ordering on their site to determine which flavour was recommended as well as what colours I wanted the cake design to emphasize. I had to check Google reviews to confirm instructions on their location, but when I got to the Langham Square plaza it was easy enough to find based on their address (unit number 2006). Staff gave clear instructions at pick up to keep the cake in the floor of the car during transport and to store the cake in a fridge until ready to eat. The box for transport was great because I got to check the design easily before leaving and the ribbon was tightly wrapped to secure the box cover to the base. The staff speak Mandarin as well as English. Payment was all done online beforehand. Highly recommend ordering their cakes for any event!

I arrived right at opening time on a Saturday, and they had all their food items out, and were just placing the description cards on the display. Another family had entered just before me, but otherwise the place was empty. The interior of the store is minimal and clean, very nice quiet spot to enjoy some of their goodies. I ended up getting 3 pastries in addition to the mini-cakes since the staff reminded me that any order of 6 items would be tax-free, and the selection was so appealing that day that I couldn't resist! Flavour, quality, and presentation was amazing, just as I expected based on the birthday cake I had tried from here. I loved everything! Such a spot for great pick me up treat. Prices tend to run pretty standard for the GTA, $6-10 per item. Staff told me their night baker had made all items the same day, so no wonder their quality is top notch.

Also this bakery absolutely beautiful and located in a prime location within Downtown Markham! When it comes to the cakes one of my favourite things about this bakery is the fact that is the cakes aren't super sweet. You find the cake to icing ratio is perfect and its just such a delicate cake. I bought the Ferrero Rocher chocolate cake recently and it was so light and delicious would definitely recommend. Yes the cakes are expensive but you are paying for premium quality and a beautiful cake as well! 9/10 recommend!

I have eyed this place for years and finally dropped by. It's across from The Origin where the Cineplex VIP theatre is. I parked in the lot on the northwest corner of Andre de Grasse Street and Enterprise Boulevard, next to Grande Burrito that used to be Copper Branch. Parking is free. It's steps away from Patisserie Fleur. It's such a charming bakery. I saw croissants in the display case to my left that I wanted to devour. The seating area was cozy and clean design-wise. There were two women behind the counter. They said hi. They were kind to let me take a look at everything in the display cases before I made any decisions. This store had Korean macarons. Perfect! I got a mixed box. The desserts look beautiful and yummy. I also got heart peach oolong tofu cheesecake. I paid with a credit card. Prices are on the higher side. My heart cheesecake was $8.50 and my box of five Korean macarons were $19.50. I will say that the packaging is awesome. I have a feeling that the price takes into account the premium boxes that my items were safely in. They were classy and nice. I thanked the woman who helped me with my order. I grabbed my goodies and walked back to my car. I then headed home. I had the heart peach oolong tofu cheesecake. It was so good. It was slightly sweet, which I appreciated. The peach flavour was perfect. The cheesecake was smooth. You can't tell that it's tofu. I brought in the macarons for my friend and me to enjoy at work. The mix box had these flavours: - Strawberry - Mango - Pistachio - Earl grey - Matcha I remembered to bring a knife into work. No, I'm not a violent person seeking revenge on an evil colleague. It was to split each macaron, so we could taste each one. We went with the earl grey first. The tea flavour was subtle. It had more of a lemon flavour. The flavour strengths should have been reversed. We loved the strawberry. It tasted like a strawberry milkshake. So good! The matcha had a strong, bold matcha tea flavour. I probably liked it more than my friend. We both loved the mango and pistachio. This place does fruit fillings so well. The mango was bright and fresh. The pistachio was delicious. This place also has drinks. I hope to consume one the next time that I'm there. I loved everything that I sampled. It's nice getting special baked goods from this place from time to time. It runs on the expensive side, but it makes sense giving the quality of ingredients that comprise these yummy delicacies. I'll be back for more, but it won't be weekly. (441)

Recently, I got to try two of their 6 inch cakes. The earl grey tea chestnut cake with fresh strawberries and the black sesame mochi lava cake with fresh mangoes. Both cakes are AMAZING! I could taste the earl grey flavor and the chestnut flavor separately along with the fresh strawberries, it is a wonderful combination. The black sesame one was sooooo good also. It has black sesame mousse on the outside and the top is like a black sesame lava topped with pistachios and some kind of nutty crumble crunch. The inside has mochis layered within along with black sesame cake, more of that nutty crumble crunch and at the bottom is fresh mangoes. I honestly don't know which one I like better but I am craving either cakes again (I had both within the last 3 weeks haha). The service there is still excellent. Everyone working there is so kind & helpful. The ambiance is nice... it is spacious, bright and clean. I really love going in there and chatting with everyone while receiving top notch service.

They also have other flavors such as chestnut which we also love. Also worth mentioning, they have walk-in specials that are cheaper than the price on their website ($8 vs $15).

If you're just doing a pickup like me, it'll be easier for you to just temporarily park by the curb and go in. Picking up was very quick and easy - I was in and out within minutes. Just remember to have your phone number ready! They have pretty interesting flavours but this time got the Matcha Red Bean Mochi Cake. The matcha flavours were good and not too sweet, and complimented the red bean nicely. I did really enjoy the mochi layer. The cake itself was also very light. I don't really know what the things on top of the cake were (dried figs?) but we didn't eat them, so not sure if they're edible. I'm usually the cake-person for my friends and family, and I definitely will be ordering from here again, especially to try the other flavours. 10/10 would come again! Tip: my cake came with a sparkler. I didn't get a choice in candle, so beware!
