Lazy Daisy's Cafe is standard. You order at the counter and they bring you your food when it's ready. You can't start a tab, so we had to up three times to pay for our coffees, then our breakfast and finally some jam and a dessert. When the server dropped off our food, she didn't say a word. Just plopped the food down in front of us. The options are pretty limited. They don't offer any alternatives to bacon (e.g., sausage, sliced tomatoes, etc.) and don't poach eggs. The veggie breakfast sandwich was okay. It didn't come with any sides. Our group also ordered chocolate chip banana pancakes, the veggie sandwich on gluten-free bread (soggy) and the full breakfast. The consensus was that everything tasted okay/good but we won't be going back. read more

I had the veggie rise, hubby had club sandwich, daughter had breakfast burrito and also had sweet potato soup. Everything was delish and fresh. read more

I want to love lazy daisy. There coffee is good, their food is good. But I find the food portions to be too small. The "big bean burrito" is not big. In fact it feel more like an appetizer than a big burrito. It's tasty. But I'm still hungry. Also I wish they would scramble eggs for their breakfast sandwiches. But the atmosphere is great. And everyone is always very nice! read more

Just ok. Nothing amazing. Although, their sandwich looked great. (But never tried one) It has wifi but it didn't work last time. It seems like it's local mom's hot spot, though. Toddlers to teenage kids come with their moms and friends. Nothing is wrong with it. Just don't expect it to be quite. lol If you looking for some place to bring your kids, you will like it. They have little toy train at the back. Super cute! read more

I was surprizes to see so many 4 stars for this place and I fail to see why. I'm not giving a 1 star because I don't want to be an a#@$. Came in a weekday morning for brunch. No brunches on weekdays! We were told to pick from a breakfast menu and when receiving our order, we were given a plate with a sandwich made of 2 pieces of toast and unseasoned egg with avocato and tomato. On the side, the fruit was a slice of orange and a sliver of melon. Come on! 2 plates and 2 lattes cost 40 bucks! Sorry but if the server wasn't so nice I would told them off. This place is a rip-off. To AVOID! read more

I got a chocolate croissant and a coffee. Everything is fresh and delicious! This place also has a great study environment and is family friendly. read more

I came in here on a chilly fall day with the desire to have a hot chocolate with my mom and sister, we ordered 3 it was over $13 and it was THE WORST hot chocolate i have ever had. It wasn't hot and simply tasted like Luke warm water, it was so Cold the whip cream didn't even melt. This is the second time this place has disappointed I will not return here. read more

I didn't find the service here too great. The table we sat at had remnants of the previous diner's meal. No one bothered to come clean it off so it became self-service. I don't expect to walk into a place and feel like I'm at the Gap and get a "Hi, there! Welcome to Lazy Daisy's! How can I be of assistance?!" but a little acknowledgment would be nice. The food was pretty bland too. My husband ordered a breakfast dish that had bacon. He asked for the dish without it. They said they'd give him more eggs but lies! lies! lies! The pastries looked pretty good though. I think if I return to this place, it'd just be to get a tea and maybe one of those yummy-looking pastries. read more

Fantastic biscuit sandy. I make my own homemade biscuits (and have eaten a lot both home and away) so I consider myself a biscuit pro, and these are fantastic biscuits. The place is clearly family/kid friendly. Super strong and tasty coffee. I'll be back. Great spot. read more

I live in the neighbourhood and really want to like this place. We've been there twice and experienced very poor customer service both times. The food is good but not good enough to make up for the lack of customer service. The first time we went the person at the cash told me "it was a pain" for her to make change from my $20. The second time we went I was served the blackest, most burned quiche I've ever seen and told by the waitress that they knew it was burned but wanted to see if I would eat it anyways. Seriously, that is so rude and almost mind numbingly bad service. I was given a $10 coupon to make up for the quiche which I spent right away on cookies because I won't be going back. read more

I don't spend a lot of time in this area but I've been working nearby for about half a month now and this has quickly become a morning staple. Delicious coffee, awesome breakfast sandwiches, almost all of which are completely home made, and the friendliest staff I've ever met, even during their super busy morning rush! They even make their own breakfast biscuits. So good. read more

Lazy Crazy Daisy is my favourite breakfast/lunch spot! They do the best coffee in the neighborhood! The staff is amazing, and you can always see some cool art on their wall! read more

LOUD !!! This is a great place if you too are an entitled parent. I like Flying Pony better read more

This is an adorable place with locally sourced cafe with organic and vegan pastries, sandwich options and delicious beverages. I LOVE the aesthetic - minimal and crisp. It is quite spacious as well. A great place for conversation, study or work! :) read more

Unbelievable service, coffee was velvety and incredible and the breakfast sandwiches are some of the best in the city. The biscuit one is HUGE.... but it is really really good. Come hungry! read more

Can we just talk about that biscuit??? Exceptional. I've had better coffee, but that biscuit is enough to keep me going back. There's a small train set and some books for the kids, but it isn't enough to entertain my 2 year old for more than 5 minutes. read more

Wonderful little cafe with excellent breakfast and brunch options.

The pancakes though!!! What a great spot to have a morning breakfast. Super family oriented and friendly but also has enough space that you can find a quiet spot to read a book or get some work done. The fresh squeezed orange juice was amazing. The pancakes will blow your mind with how flavorful but light they are. The prices are very reasonable and it's a place you can definitely come with the kids to enjoy. Service was really fast and friendly as well. read more

We were very excited when this place opened up in our neighbourhood recently and went this morning to grab a late breakfast. The restaurant gets an A+ for ambiance and friendliness of staff. It's warm and inviting, has a kids' play area, reading materials on the tables, the food is organic and locally sourced - awesome! We were surprised with the price of our meal, however. I had a turkey sandwich - the kind of basic sandwich that you could whip up at home (two slices of non-descript brown bread, cold-cut style turkey, goat cheese and cranberry sauce), my boyfriend had a breakfast sandwich (egg, melted cheese on a biscuit), and for drinks we had a tea and a coffee. There were no sides. Our breakfast came to $24 and change. For that amount of money we would have expected something a bit more substantial - even a handful of chips on our plates. We left $24 poorer and still hungry :( I won't write the place off after one experience and I so want to love this place. I'll just have to wait and see. read more

Lazy Daisy's Cafe is a cozy oasis in a slightly ragged corner of our neighbourhood. So much to love about this place: the vegetarian options, soy London Fogs, great homemade cookies in big glass jars (makes you feel like you're at home), great vegan brownies, and charming staff...PLUS Dawn is an amazing community builder...our neighbourhood has improved ten fold since this shop opened up 2 years ago. read more

9 inch long hair in my omelette after the second bite. 2mins later, an adolescent sized fly in my "freshly squeezed" orange juice. Mediocre (at best), yet pretentious "service". Bottom line: hipster douchbag, wannabe Leslieville dive that caters to pretty much the same clientelle. Don't believe? I encourage you to visit this place for yourself! read more

i'm not a coffee drinker, so i always feel like a bit of a fraud when talking about cafes... anyway, i went with a friend who had a latte and quite liked it. i had a tea--it was okay. i tried one of their scones (can't remember the flavour) and it was so-so. maybe would have been better if it had been warmed up a bit. they have a huge, really delicious-looking menu with all kinds of great breakfast-y sandwiches & dishes--i look forward to going again and trying it out. read more

Its great that this area where I have lived for 15 years finally gets a decent coffee shop, but it does miss on a whole lotta neighborhood warmth. The lazy daisy NEEDS to recognize its neighborhood, faces, people, familes and regulars. They emphasize too much on the look and feel of the place but really forgets about warming up to their customers. The staff NEEDS to recognize and remember customers coffee preferrence as if they are bartenders. Staff needs to step up and be socal like community baristas. Please cover up the treats on the counters and forget the wooden log platters if covering them would be difficult because of this. The neighborhood is friendly and warm. The lazy Daisy needs to be the same like a cozy warm coffee. read more

Love this place! Great place to grab a delicious sandwich and soup without spending a fortune!! My favourite is the Farmers Club!

Echo the other poster's thoughts on the chili. Not only that, for a dish that listed beef as the first or second ingredient, there was none. Also avoid weekday lunchtime unless you enjoy having lunch in a daycare. But I am more than willing to try them again due to the lovely pastries and the smiles. They have great potential. read more

Cute space, and it's great to support a small local shop. However, the coffee they poured me was horrifying. It had clearly been sitting on the burner for far too long. Will never order coffee there again. Blech. read more

Breakfast is yummy! I really enjoyed the biscuit sandwich over the other options. The coffee was ok nothing special. I think our favorite thing is they support local farmers and growers! read more

Coffee is great. Service is typical of any coffee shop - mediocre. Nobody ever says "how are you?" these days. Though it is set up like a restaurant, you order your food at the counter, pickup your coffee and they deliver the rest. The menu consists largely of buttermilk biscuits (too sweet for me) layered with different items. The veggie one was reasonable but not particularly tasty. Quite greasy. Worthy for a visit if you are a local and want a quick bite to eat. The place is cute and comfy. read more

Pretty good upmarket coffee house where lots of moms and kids hang out and they have breakfast too. Decent prices.

Nothing better than a cup of java after a long day of helping clients in the area find their dream homes. Very lofty design & great staff.

Very tasty breakfast sandwich and cappuccino, but at $12 total and a small portion with only two bits of melon on the side, I won't be coming here often -- which is unfortunate because the vibe and ingredients are great and there is nowhere else in the area that does a sit down breakfast aside from the dingy joint across the street. Will give four stars anyway but I'm still disappointed by the high prices. This area should be affordable for young families, not straight into full tourist-price gentrification. read more

great food, great coffee. They also just started doing trivia and games nights. So happy to have such a cool place in my neighbourhood.

This is a good local spot for coffee, tea and sandwiches if you need some sustenance. I am not sure why there are so many comments about how the food isn't mind blowing. I had a BLT which is pretty standard fare if you are going out for brunch. The sandwich was generously proportioned and came on multi-grain bread. My friend had the big breakfast which reminded him of an English breakfast. Again generous proportion. The coffee that they had is Pilot coffee. The seating is spaced out so that you don't feel like you are intruding on your neighbour's conversation. Families with children do frequent this spot which is nice. The servers were remarkably cheery and amiable. I didn't feel like I had just been parachuted into hipsterville or the land of toddlers. Would certainly make a return trip. read more

This has been my go-to cafe since moving to Little India almost 2 years ago. Love the vibe, there are no holier-than-thou espresso-wieding baristas like a lot of the more well-known places. The staff members are awesome! So friendly, (almost) always smiling. They seem to have a LOT to do, so I always try to cut them some slack. This isn't just a coffee shop. There's a full food menu, and even craft beers for sale. Whenever I'm in there the staff are constantly on the move and doing a good job. I've found it's a good place to get some work done and catch up on emails. The coffee is great, and the food is a-mazing! Fresh, unique, delicious. Sunday brunch is always a hit (and is usually crazy busy). Try the Son-of-a-Rise and thank me later Food is a bit pricey, but that's what ya get for farm fresh, free run, organic-type stuff. I'm already looking forward to stopping in tomorrow! read more

Great local cafe with delicious eats & treats. Always in for a London Fog and the hard-not-to-get Grandma's Butter Tarts.

I live around the corner from the Lazy Daisy & finally stopped in. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing & the coffee is perfect. I'm glad we finally have a decent cafe in the area. read more

Great breakfast, fast and friendly. A little smokey inside and crowded but that just means it's a great place.

I'm a student and I can't seem to work at home so I enjoy travelling to cafes to work for the day. I arrived around 11am and ordered an almond milk cappuccino. One of the best I've had, so smooth and velvety. Their prices are in the midrange. I've definitely paid more for coffee. They didn't mind me sitting all day which is nice some restaurants try to rush you out. A couple hours later I ordered lunch. I got the breakfast burrito. This usually comes with chorizo but I am a vegetarian so they happily substituted portobello mushrooms for the sausage. I highly recommend this menu item. They grill it and serve it with a couple pieces of fruit and a side of hot sauce. Delicious. Overall a good experience. The only two downsides for me was the screaming children (although to be fair they do warn you it is a child friendly environment) and the cold air that blows through the vents all day. Other than that friendly staff, cute atmosphere, delicious food and coffee, great for students. read more

Lazy Daisy's Cafe - They make a mean almond milk cappuccino here. Trust me. - Cafes Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Honestly I would throw myself into the sun for another Lazy Daisy's quiche. Service is always friendly-- and see if you can sneak in and get a ticket for one of their lovely wine and cheese events! read more

It's ok but they are overcharging parents. $3 for a juice box?! 3.5 for a kids hot Chocolate? It's sad when you have to push prices this high. read more
