Just upon entering I was greeted warmly by the staff and the interior was charming - with cute messages drawn on canvasses, it really gave a very warm feeling. I ordered their cafe mocha latte (confirmed it came with the latte art - that was important!), and their shredded chicken naan panini. Food and coffee were ready in 5 minutes and I was OBSESSED with the latte art that the barista surprised me with. It took me a lot of mental strength to actually ruin the art and drink the coffee. But the coffee was so delicious that it actually made up for it! It was a rich taste of coffee and dark chocolate and tasted divine! Oh and the panini? Delicious! Perfect balance of chicken, greens, tomato and a flavourful sauce packed with yumminess. I am going to be back for more!

I ordered the acai bowl and the vanilla smoothie. I found it hard to eat the acai bowl, as it did not taste very good. The vanilla smoothie was more palatable, but it fell flat for me, especially at these premium prices.

I was in the area looking for local cafes, and I stumbled upon this place…read more First off, the desserts and sandwiches looked amazing! I've been trying to watch what I eat, so I only ordered the praline and hazelnut croissant, even though there were so many items I wanted to try. The croissant was amazing! It had a nice fluffy texture, and it was very sweet. Highly recommend! I also ordered the lotus latte. The latte was sweet, but not overly sweet. It had a biscoff like cookie layer on top which gave it a unique flavour. I enjoyed the drink, but I probably wouldn't get again. The service was quick, and the server was very helpful in helping me choose which drink I should select :) Definitely will be coming back to try more of the pastries!

second time coming here and it didn't dissapoint! I randomly called on a rainy weekday around 2pm…read moreto see if they had the nutella "cronut" croissant, they didn't have it but offered a alternative. The person behind the phone was kind enough to hold 3 pastries down for me, I think I only got lucky because it was rainy and not as busy. If it was a sunny busy day it definitely wouldn't have happened. Finally got to try the famous crossiant x cookie mix. It was honestly just okay. the two chocolate croissants were yummy! And i did get the matcha strawberry latte, personally wouldn't recommend as it tasted too artificial. Would definitely check them out since they're a local gem. Service is always nice and effective.

A neighbourhood cafe restaurant and bar…read more Came before noon to grab a bite and thought the dishes here were great! The spot was cute on the first floor and heard there's a second floor for larger tables. The interior was cute and decorated prior to the holidays. Menu is large with lots of food options to choose from. We got: Oxtail Marmalade 4/5 - This was delicious, braised and had a deep flavour of oxtail. It was a bit sweet and paired perfectly with the griddled bread and dijon. French Toast 4/5 - A thick 2 layer French toast with blueberry compote and marscapone cream. Great for sharing, tasty but definitely can't finish it on my own. Fries 5/5 - The fries were great and tasty. Cooked well and great for sharing. Overall, thought the place was a great neighbourhood cafe. Service was good. Make a reso ahead of time.

Went to Manita (Rosedale location) for brunch. Comfortable space with a homey vibe. The problem is…read morethat tables are quite close together and it gets loud. The volume level was such that it got difficult to converse with others at my table. Had to speak quite loud so others could hear me. Lots of tasty looking options on the menu. I decided to order the falafel plate. service was attentive and the food came out quickly. The pita and falafel were tasty, while the vegetables that it came with were fresh. I just felt like it was missing more of a sauce to tie everything together. Overall, brunch was a good experience and I would like to come back to try other items.

This place is cute, quaint, and also cozy. I had to do some online work so we came here. It was…read morequite busy when we arrived, almost every seat and table was taken but we managed to find some stools against the counter in the back. I got the Lavender Latte with oat milk and my boyfriend got the Apple Cider. I really enjoyed my latte: it was smooth, the oat milk was creamy and complemented the espresso, and the lavender shined through. It was a great latte. They had a vast menu with many drinks and breakfast items. They had so many pastries to choose from! From croissants, baklava, bread/loaves, I'm sure there's something for everyone here. The further you go inside, it gets dimmer and there's not as much light. The interior has alot of yellow lighting, so that paired with working in the back on my laptop was a little straining on the eyes for me. I would've preferred working by the front but all those tables were occupied. Also it seems like there's a good amount of people working remotely here. All in all, I liked it here and I would come back to try their pastries and Turkish coffee.

This is my go-to spot for a mental reset on my typical work-from-home Fridays. It's the perfect…read moreexcuse to step away from the laptop, conveniently located at Redpath and Eglinton (just a few blocks from the Line 1 station) and a 5 minute walk from my place. The staff is always friendly, and the mocha is a reliable afternoon pick-me-up. The interior is pleasantly dark and welcoming, with large cozy tables and low lighting that give it a snug, English-pub vibe. I often see other remote workers camped out with their laptops, though I've yet to commit to a full work session myself. My visits are strictly of the grab-and-go variety so far. What really sets this place apart is the authentic selection of English pastries. While I'm not a meat pie person, I love that they have them here. It's a nice little nostalgic nod to my time in the UK, even if I'm just ducking in for a coffee and croissant. A solid choice for a caffeine fix, a friendly face, and a brief change of scenery from your home office.

I first heard of Lil E Coffee…read morethrough Instagram awhile ago and immediately fell in love with the cafe's mission and purpose to provide opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to gain hands on food and beverage work experience. The cafe itself, while tiny, is brightly lit from the large windows and offers a wide range of menu items, from their drinks, to baked good like muffins, to energy balls. I got a regular iced latte with almond milk ($5.25 plus $0.50 for the milk alternative). It was not overly sweet and was a great midday pick me up! I've heard great things about their iced sweet latte, so definitely will be coming back to try that. Their scones also looked delicious! Service was quick and the staff members were super friendly. There were some office workers on their lunch break here and some bar stool seating by the window as well.

However the service is good, they also have a bar to spicd things up. They have cookies and other treats. Theres a cute patio, and many sitting areas upstairs and downstairs and lots of privacy.

Last Saturday a friend and I decided to visit this venue. We'd both previously been to their…read moreFinancial District location and I'd also visited their Harbourfront venue a couple of times as I live close by. We arrived around 3:30 pm when it was fairly occupied; they feature 'Happy Sour Hour' from 4 to 7 pm, during which all of their sour beers are reduced in price to $7.00. We ordered and shared two beers, the first a lager, the second a sour beer in order to take advantage of the discounted price. The venue is long and narrow, with two floors and a distinctive looking back patio. Our service was fairly prompt and they are located in a quite convenient location, literally across the street from the subway and the historic, flagship LCBO location. So I can recommend a visit if you're in the area and desire a drink and/or snack.
