The Milky storefront at Dundas and Bathurst is tiny but super aesthetic with lots of decorative ceramics and cute niknaks to browse and purchase. Not to mention, service was top-notch. I ordered a couple items to try: HOT CHOCOLATE: Though milkier than I'd prefer, the chocolate notes still came through rather nicely. I enjoyed that it was a semi-sweet beverage and made at the perfect temperature for this cold winter weather. I got it with just regular milk and it was smooth to drink. Overall, not too special so I'll give it a 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. OREO COOKIE: I was very happy to have found an Oreo cookie that isn't paired with cream cheese! Yet, there's big enough cookie chunks for you to taste that flavor profile, coming through nicely, without an overload of sugar. It was chewy, the way I like my cookies and overall, probably the best Oreo cookie I've had (4.9 out of 5.0 stars) BROWN BUTTER RICE KRISPY COOKIE: A unique flavor profile that caught my attention when I heard the name. Same as the Oreo, the chewy consistency was perfect. As you approach more of the center of the cookie, you also get those rice krispy bits which weren't the crunchiest but added an interesting texture to it. This one definitely had a more sweet n' salty balance which was a nice touch. All in all, a very flavorful cookie that I really enjoyed (4.9 out of 5.0 stars). Hot chocolate ($5) Cookies ($3.75 each) Though my drink was a little underwhelming, I'll be visiting again when I get the chance as they do have some more unique offerings that I'd be interesting to have a taste.

Here is a hint always ask for light ice they still give you plenty of ice, even if the cold brew comes out cold. Otherwise you get a cup full of ice. De Mello coffee is expensivei. However, in the scheme of things it is a good value because the coffee beans they use have a good solid caffeine kick and it tastes good! (My overall favorite place is still across the street a couple blocks North at Himalayan coffee. It's folksy, a lot less expensive and I always feel happy there, especially after I get a cute latte art on my drink.). The Coconut island cost $8.50 plus tax or $9.60! De Mello Coffee is creative marketing their coffee beans. They have crazy names by cotton candy, lolipop, birthday cake, dead, man, walking, etc. however, a small bag of beans is super super expensive. But their marketing makes you wanna try it and then afterwards you're like oh I guess I taste something but it's still not worth the cost. I'm sorry if this review leaves you puzzled to go or not. It's worth trying. The baked goods look amazing and as long as you get one that is moist, are excellent. Well, I return? Yes.

Don't get me wrong, it was good and the staff was friendly but the coffee itself was a little airy and wasnt quite as rich as I usually want. That mixed with how tiny the place is means its hard to sit and enjoy which is a bit of a bummber. The staff is super friendly though and it is a cute place. I dont want to be too hard because it wasnt bad, but I also dont think it deserves almost a perfect score.

Panther City Coffee is located inside The Piston on Bloor, near Delaware Ave. The coffee shop is…read moreopen daily (except Sundays) starting at 9am until 4pm. Sharing the space with the bar, you are free to order a coffee and pastry and chill in the space. Washrooms are located downstairs. I stopped by Panther City Coffee on a Friday before noon to grab a quick coffee. The owner was super friendly during my short visit there and stated that their pastries, especially their croissants are made fresh daily. The drink menu consists of your classic espresso based drinks where they also have several lattes like chai and matcha. I decided to grab a cortado which was made at a reasonable time. Staff were friendly and the coffee was made well. The space looked nice but didn't have the time to enjoy my coffee there. Will also have to try one of their croissants next time as well. Overall, a hidden coffee shop located inside The Piston during the day, Do definitely stop by for a coffee and croissant if you're around the area!

This review is for the NEW SECOND LOCATION on Jarvis St. (North of King, on the east side). I was…read moreincredibly excited to hear this location opened as I was a huge fan and a regular at the Shuter St location when I worked in the area. This second location is only a couple of weeks old and I already like the vibe. There are long tables and a bench - I love the possibility of conversations when people sit at shared long tables!! The walls are still bare, and I suspect it's just a matter of time for some inspired art to show up. About the main event, coffee, the same focus on excellence followed to the second location. Come here for great coffee and excellent service! Shawn mentioned that they will be a rotation of cookies that are baked onsite - I am excited to come back to see that. Oh yeah, I mustn't forget that this location faces the gorgeous St. James park and cathedral. See photos.

The staff at this location were super sweet and friendly. This spot is undoubtedly a hidden treasure, and I will most certainly return.
