A quaint little cafe near midtown. Gave it a visit as it's very close to my place and I'm looking for good matcha places in the neighborhood. This cafe is one of my friend's favs, and I can see why! The strawberry matcha was gooooood. I also love that they had a little Wes Anderson alphabet poster near the back :) read more

Isle of Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here to try their regular matcha. They offered to put sugar in it, but after being in Japan, I wanted to try without and asked for their recommendation, and they said at least half sugar. Right away I know it wasn't going to be good matcha. However, I really like their Madeline, it wasn't buttery and not too sweet. The perfect snack. Just wish it was bigger for the price you pay for. I like their hojicha matcha more. This one is more smooth and you don't taste much of the bitterness to it. The cafe itself is a cute little cafe. It doesn't have too many seatings available. read more

Isle of Coffee - Hojicha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Decided to try their ice matcha latte. It was good, not the strongest flavour but it was good enough! Smooth and yummy with soy milk. They do dine in as well so they put it in a glass cup. Service was quite friendly and very fast. The ambiance was modern and nice. They sell pastries as well. read more

This Isle of Coffee location on Eglinton isn't as renovated as the location on Queen St E but still super cozy and surprisingly spacious. DRINKS (4/5) We ordered and iced latte and a flat white both served in modern and stylish cupware. The iced latte can be requested to be sweetened with simple syrup and was textbook. The flat white tasted like it had a smidge too much milk that threw off the espresso balance. There were also pastries and other food options that we didn't try this time. AMBIENCE (5/5) When you walk in, you're welcomed with seating decked out in warm woods and modern art deco furnishings. There is also a few tabled seats behind the POS great for studying/working. To my surprise there is also a door that leads to a basement with a contrasting darker vibe with spotlights and a projector - super cool! LOCATION (4/5) Located steps away from Eglinton and Avenue it isn't the easiest to get to. However once Line 5 Eglinton opens up, there's a stop right at Avenue which will make it really convenient. There is some street parking along Eglinton or neighbouring side streets. OVERALL (4/5) Super cozy aesthetic cafe and great drinks. I'm excited to check out the Queen St location that is also really aesthetic. read more

Small cozy cafe. They have a basement with extra seating and one washroom. Last time I went, they were projecting snoopy on the wall which was cute :) I'm not too sure about food but I ordered a cold ice coffee and a hot latte which were decent. They whisk fresh matcha powder to ale the matcha latte. Service was average. read more

This place is a hidden gem. I discovered this place after the Starbucks I was going to go to was unexpectedly closed. The woman who helped me was so lovely and suggested the iced matcha. It was delicious. So creamy and didn't have that too grassy or too creamy taste. Just perfect. The inside is also quite cute and I believe they have a downstairs lounge type space. I would definitely sit in again. read more

Isle of Coffee - Iced matcha with oat milk and vanilla - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Isle of Coffee is located in midtown Toronto, near Eglinton/Avenue. The small coffee shop is currently open for takeout only due to the pandemic restrictions. They do have some tables/chairs for indoor dining and lounging as well - something that can be taken advantage of once indoor dining is allowed again. The cafe has a welcoming and warm vibe with several different kinds of plants throughout. In terms of their offerings, the small coffee shop uses Seth Taylor beans and serves a variety of caffeinated and non caffeinated beverages. They also have a variety of baked goods (cookies, croissants, madelines) as well as sandwiches/toasts available. I dropped by Isle of Coffee on Tuesday morning for a coffee. Ordered a flat white with oat milk. The baked goods caught my attention and I also got a lemon bear as well as a matcha and truffle honey madeline. The coffee was made well and the pastries were delicious! Service was friendly and all the baked goods were individually wrapped and packaged which I appreciated. Overall, great coffee shop midtown. It is about a 10-15 min walk from Eglinton subway station if you are heading there by public transportation (easily walkable from the station, just have to watch out for all the construction). Definitely recommend and check them out if you are around the area! read more

This is my one of my favorite places to grab a cuppa in the vicinity of Yonge-Eglinton area. The shop is very small, especially in the midst of midtown infamous construction scene. What I usually order here is the ice latte, which comes with strong espresso (many places i felt it's just coffee flavoured water) and creamy milk. Perfect for a hot day. Another must-try here is the variety of sweet treats, especially the date scones and the choux which just melt in your mouth. Parking on the main street is challenging so you may want to consider the side streets instead. Also, 2 blocks towards yonge is Gouter, my go-to spot for French pastries. read more

The vanilla cookie choux was amazing as well i love the cream they has because it wasnt overly sweet. I would definitely visit again to try their other drinks and desserts!! read more

If you're near the Eglinton station area check this place out!!

Must Try: Cookie Choux, Madeline's, Tahini Maple Latte, Lattes Rating: (10/10) Coffee, (9/10) Pastries, (10/10) Service, (10/10) Value, (9/10) Ambience, (9/10) Presentation, (10/10) Cleanliness An amazing cute shop that serves pastries as solid as their coffee. We came looking for a coffee shop in the neighbourhood and stumbled here. The coffee roast for this lattes were great, and their special drinks were delicious.

A hidden gem in a neighbour filled with surprises! read more

Finally tried this cafe in my neighborhood on Sunday afternoon and loved it We tried Match latte, Houjicha latte and Cookie choux. Tea lattes were not the best but ok, Cookie choux was delicious! Cream was not too sweet but refreshing with vanilla beans and generously stuffed. I may like it better if the the puff is crispier (maybe it's got soggy as we bought it in the mid afternoon). read more

loved the coffee here and the house-made treats and desserts looked so beautiful. I was really impressed with their cortado. Nice to see great thought and heart out into coffee in this neighborhood! Second to none read more
