The space is a bit older and dated looking, but it is cozy and warm. I finally had the chance to try it out for breakfast recently. Staff are very patient and friendly -- there were the 2 owners and 2 other staff. So all the customers were well taken care of. The restaurant was packed. It's small only a few tables. My friend and I grabbed a seat at the high top table. Their menu was larger than expected for a cafe! Quite a lot of options for sandwiches. We both tried the Breakfast Sandwich -- it's a croissant panini-grilled with 2 poached eggs, cheese, hash brown and choice of bacon or sausage. It was satisfying without being too greasy or oily. I had a regular drip coffee with cream. It was ok! They do have a small coffee menu. Not alternative dairy. Lastly, we tried the Borsch soup! When we learned the owners were Polish, we knew that we had to try the Polish items on the menu. The Borscht was light and fragrant. Loved it so much, we bought a container from their to-go fridge! Will definitely return to try the pirogies and other items too.

They take their coffee seriously and have pastry options like bagel, muffin and croissant in addition to real food. The play area is separate from the cafe area. You could go here just to work (internet tested at 24/23) or just to keep the kids busy. I went on a PA day and it was quite busy but I was still able to find a seat. There is also a separate children's area with a ECE and more structured activity. My kid made some crafts while there. Recommended all around, great place, great staff and great product.

The vibe is very cozy--I fondly remember walking here in knee-high snow after the thunder snow storm. Even then, the shop was up and running, ready to welcome us after a long morning of shoveling.

This is an adorable cafe, very quaint but very small. There are only 3 tables that seat 4 people,…read moreso my family and I had a fairly difficult time finding a spot since many pairs had taken the four-seaters. We were, however, very fortunate as one party of four was just leaving! Since we went in January, the cute Christmas decorations were all still up. The chalkboard is a lovely touch, filled with many scribbles and comments from visitors. Upon sitting down, we ordered four portions of their very famous roasted red pepper tomato soup. My order came with a side of chickpea artichoke salad (cost $8.38) - the waiter/cashier emphasized how it's a popular choice, so I decided to give it a try. It was a generous portion of both chickpeas and artichokes, but I found it overly sour (the balsamic vinegar) and there was just a bit too much oil. That being said, it was extremely filling! My dad's order came with the savoury scone/tea biscuit ($6.00). He enjoyed it very much, and wolfed it down. Meanwhile, my mom ordered a panini side ($8.38) - she got the chicken, bacon, cheddar, but we couldn't taste any bacon whatsoever. There were massive chunks of chicken, and the cheddar was deliciously stringy. The exterior was also perfectly crispy! The soup was very good ($5-6)! I loved it a lot, but my family's comments were that it became increasingly sour near the end. Indeed, it definitely needs to be served with some crackers to even out its tangy and tomato-y flavour. It was rich in ingredients, as I could feel the rough texture of ground-up celery, tomatoes, onions, etc. The service is impeccable - very kind, though slow. When we arrived, there was only one person on shift. Our waiter was very kind and patient, willing to explain each order and walk us through what's famous. When we asked about the soup, he gave us a small ramekin to sample and share. Moreover, halfway through the meal, he approached our table, apologized for not serving us water, and immediately brought some over. Because of the single-person shift, they also tended to be slow in clearing tables and in bringing our food over.

LOL) They do not sell a wide variety of food, but if I'm not mistaken, they did have a breakfast sandwich with eggs and bacon. On this visit, I started off good, ordering only coffee, but I told my hubby about the baked goods and just like that we got delicious treats too! Trouble, looking for a place to happen! Looks like we both have a sweet tooth!! Service is good, coffee is good, treats are fresh and very tasty. The location is not large, but it's clean - including the washrooms. The biggest downer this past summer was the constant construction on Dundas, which blocked vehicular traffic all summer long. This must surely have negatively affected the local businesses. I am grateful this one survived. I look forward to going back.s
