I must say anyone would is a nature lover would be impressed to see this cafe and spend some quality time especially in winters.. so lush with all the plants around! Not just the interiors, the coffee and including the cup are so good and very well maintained! Also to add the best chicken banh mi I ever had Definitely going back here to try other delicacies and also drinks! read more

I won a contest online for a take home banh mi kit, two iced drinks, and vegan banana bread pudding. I got to choose which protein I wanted (chicken, pork or vegan), and I chose pork. WOW. So many thoughts racing through my head! The staff were so nice and the precautions being taken for safety are a lot. They had the door wide open, lots of tape for social distancing, pexiglass and the owner was wear a face shield. I never felt unsafe. He was so friendly and asked a bunch of really great questions to me while I waited for them to assemble the kit. I ordered two Vietnamese iced coffees - if you haven't had Vietnamese coffee before, I highly recommend it. The kit came with mayo, pate, pickled veggies, cilantro, pork, cucumber, baguette, and the sweetest instruction guide which seemed silly but was actually SO helpful - including reheat times, assembly instructions, etc. This was so thoughtful!! We toasted the baguette after spreading the pate and mayo, and reheated the pork and made sure to pour on the juice as well. I hate cilantro and usually avoid banh mi for this reason, but the rest of the ingredients were packed with flavour that I didn't even notice the missing herb. The owner told me I could eat the banana bread pudding cold or hot, we were lazy so we ate it cold with the coconut milk spread, and it was beyond delicious. Complex and layered flavour. The prices are extremely fair, the experience was safe, and I was just so thrilled with the whole thing! Can't wait to be back, they are doing take out of all their drinks and many at home meal kits. read more

Banh MI were overpriced for BANH MI but I guess regular priced cafe sandwiches... Compared to other cafes/coffee shops that price their sandwiches for the same but prepare them from frozen, I guess this is one up. The bread is big, toasted and has sesame seeds. The length of the sandwich is medium sized. Smaller than the large you would get from a Banh MI place. Also the Banh MI is served on paper in a woven basket which is cute but I can see getting greasy and dirty in the future. My pork sandwich was super fatty. More than half fat. Each of my friends who also got the lemongrass sandwich said that theirs had big pieces of fat too. The flavour was good but Im usually a person who picks out the fat from my food and even chicken skin. The drinks (iced pandan latte and iced purple potato latte) were very unique and ASTHETIC. Flavour was pretty good, I enjoyed them and would reccomend them as something new to try. I would not get Banh MI from here again though. Other points of interest: - you put your dirty dishes into a bin that is identical to their garbage can that is next to their real garbage can. I can see people getting them mixed up here. - They have metal straws! - Water is self serve by the main entrance and has lemons inside. - Free WiFi too! Very cafe - Beautiful decor read more

This is a nice and pretty cafe with a twist of Vietnamese taste. It serves regular coffee and some Vietnamese focus food like pandan latte, iced Vietnamese coffee and banhmi sandwich. The owners are friendly and many comfortable seatings in the shop where you can have a coffee date with friends or work. Love to go back to try their ice cream next time. read more

Rustle & Still Café - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I love it here! This cafe recently opened up in the area and I'm already in love with it. The owners are very friendly and the place is super clean with lots of natural light, pinterest looking furniture and books, and various plants. As soon as I walked in, I already gave this place an A+ for its appearance. For the food/drinks, I was quite impressed too. For drinks, I tried the matcha pandan latte and the hojicha latte - both very tasty. The matcha pandan latte was very sweet and the hojicha did not disappoint. I'm a huge hojicha fan and I know I'll definitely be back for more. For food, I tried the caramel flan - this was also very good, I just wish the portion size was a bit bigger. I hear the purple sweet potato latte (taro latte) and the banana bread are absolutely delicious so I'm definitely trying these next time I come here. Definitely come check this place out if you're in the area. read more

Rustle & Still Cafe offers great banh mi sandwiches, a selection of mains, and good coffee. I ordered the Beef Brisket Stew takeout. Unfortunately it was quite salty, the brisket was not very tender, and the serving size was disappointing considering the price point. I'd recommend sticking with their great banh mi sandwiches, such as the Garlicky Shrimpo. Service is friendly and the place has a very nice vibe. Street parking available. A block and half from Bathurst subway station. TLDR; good banh mi sandwiches, good service read more

Pandan Latte! Something you don't see everyday and this was the first time I've tried it at Rustle & Still. I love the decor here, simple with a touch of nature! Their wall mural & plants are my fave :) i love having pandan coconut cakes, pandan souffle, pandan everything pretty much LOL and was excited to try their iced pandan latte (with coffee version). The pandan taste was fragrant, but not grassy, and was different than any other lattes you could think of (eg. London Fog), but I'd get it again for sure with a banh mi the next time I'm in the area :) read more

I really like this cute little hidden cafe ! The atmosphere and decor inside is really nice. Feels organic and welcoming. The staff is really nice. I love their pandan drinks, especially the matcha pandan latte which is amazing, especially iced in a hot summer day. Their coffee pandan latte is also good but you taste the pandan less. I recently went two days in a row just to indulge myself in these drinks. Will definitely come back for more. I'm also looking forward to trying their ube latte and Vietnamese snacks / sandwiches that they have! read more

Was craving me some Bahn Mi and decided to hit this place up in Koreatown. The cashier and barista were both lovely as, and seemed genuinely happy to be there. I had the gochujang mushroom tofu bahn mi, and it was so good, although really big and I kind of made a fool of myself in front of everyone trying to eat it without making a mess. All the components went really well together, the crispy tofu and shallots with the creamy coleslaw and fresh coriander and as a vegetarian that can be hard to find in a bahn mi, so I was happy with what I got. It wasn't spicy though, so next time I'd get a higher spice level than the mild that was recommended to me. Also had a Vietnamese iced coffee that was pretty standard and kept me up all night. The sitting area was so aesthetic and pretty, I kind of wish I'd brought my laptop that day or a book so I could've just sat there for a bit! read more

An urban oasis in the heart of Koreatown! I popped in here to kill a half hour and instantly fell in love. I ordered the peach tea lemonade, which was perfectly refreshing and even came with two fresh peach slices, which was a really nice touch. The decor is super airy and zen, with plants and wooden touches throughout. There were a few laptop folks working, as well as reserved sections for chatting and chilling, so you'll always be able to get a seat. Service was fantastic, and after I had to dash out, they kindly gave me a to-go cup for my lemonade so I could sip on the run. Looking forward to coming back to try the food! read more

Such a cute aesthetic Vietnamese café! They sell a variety of coffee and tea drinks, as well as bahn mi and other foods. The staff is very friendly as well! I ordered the iced pandan latte. A bit pricey (we paid $16 for two drinks) but I enjoyed it a lot, although I do wish the pandan flavour was a bit stronger. The hojicha latte my sister ordered was also very light and creamy. It's a pretty small space filled with plants and nice decorations, perfect for instagram and food photos! Seating is limited, but they have free wifi so it would be a good spot to stay if you come earlier! read more

We found out about this café shop for its being the only place (to my knowledge) in the GTA that served Banh Mi Skillet - a creative spin-off from the traditional banh mi sandwich. The shop is a bit tucked away as it locates on a second floor; however, it was not difficult to navigate. If you're into nature, this may be a perfect spot to relax - tropical vibe with a lot of refreshing green, leafy decorations! The menu offers various options for banh mi sandwiches, Asian/Vietnamese inspired tea & coffee, and some pastries. We, of course, went for their Banh Mi Skillet, which arrived with toasted baguette, sunny-side up eggs, ham, meatball cooked in tomato soup, pâté and Viet slaw. We really loved their pâté - very smooth texture and full of authentic flavours. The baguette was enjoyable as well - perfect amount of crunchiness outside with light, fluffy bread inside. As for the tomato soup, I would definitely like it better in a thicker/gravy-like consistency, yet it was actually too watered down. The skillet was for sure delicious, but was not something too impressive. Overall, I'd recommend getting Banh Mi skillet if you're looking forward to trying a Vietnamese take on breakfast/brunch! read more

Discovered this super cute and relaxing cafe near Bathurst Station! It's my new favourite cafe spot to chill and study~ Perfect spot to come enjoy a cup of warm latte, or delicious Vietnamese banh mi for lunch. Absolutely loved their pretty lilac purple sweet potato latte, the warm yam like flavour is subtle and match the foamy milk really well. Their matcha pandan latte is also one of the best matcha latte I've had, has the bittersweet traditional flavour of matcha MY FAVOURITE OF ALL is the Banh Mi! They have 4 flavours of their popular Vietnamese sandwiches. I got the juicy savoury char sui BBQ pork and my friend got the vegan option of the Mushroom Tofu. The sandwich was soooo good that I wish I can pack another to-go. Super filing, enough for 2 to share half and half. As well, recommend the caramel flan cake, a neat little pudding dessert that perfectly finished off the meal Love all of their plant decor, and they now have a little rewards stamp card where you can get a stamps for every item purchased.

My sister raved about this place before me coming here and so I was excited to see what they offered. Greeting us right away, they were very patient in waiting for me to order since I didn't know what to get. I was still unsure on what to get untill they suggested a cafe latte with a shot of Pandan which is a combination I have never heard of. I got it since it sounded interesting and it was great! I like sweet drinks and they did deliver that! Great place to work on the computer with in a green-friendly environment. Would come again!!! read more

Another Banh Mi review! I finally got the chance to try out Rustle & Still! I found out this place opened before BlogTO or any other social media outlet advertised it. Usually, I am at the restaurant located below called Hancook for the rice cakes and was so surprised a new Vietnamese joint was opening! I ordered the Pandan Matcha Latte with Soy Milk and OMG it was bomb! The Pandan had a really strong taste that almost overcompensates the matcha but it was a good thing, I surprisingly enjoyed the taste! Bonus: I like the fact that they use metal straws! For food, I ordered the Banh Mi Mix (Chicken and Pork) because I couldn't choose between the two haha! In the photo you will also see a few orders of the meatballs, ALSO highly recommend! Comparing this to my other Banh Mi review, this one has a much thicker baguette and much more flavourful! Personally, I like the thinner baguettes because it is easier to eat but this was definitely a new experience for me which I liked! For dessert, we all got the flan pudding which was the perfect texture and taste! It was a bit on the sweeter side, but overall pretty good! The place was super aesthetic with lots of plants, books, and cute decor! If you're into IG aesthetics, this is the place to go (or blogger)! Also good to know: they do not have wifi (to encourage people to socialize)! read more

This is my first visit here and it's definitely not my last. The food menu is a small and not overwhelming. I chose the Lemongrass Pork Banh Mi and it was absolutely delicious. The bread was fresh and a different texture and taste to the regular banh mi you get at the Viet store. The pork was well flavoured and the ingredients taste very fresh. I also ordered the Sweet Potato Latte which was a beautiful purple colour. It tasted like Sweet potato milk tea, kind of like a taro milk tea that you would get from a bubble tea shop. I love that their drink menu includes a few specialty item that you can't find at other cafes. I definitely want to return to try the Matcha Pandan Latte! The atmosphere is also super cute and a very good spot to do work. Also, good for meet ups with friends! read more

Lemon grass pork Banh Mi with sunny side up eggs ($9.80) Lemon grass chicken Banh mi ($7.80) * In all honesty, I'm not a huge fan of sandwiches, but the sesame baguette was perfectly toasted for both sandwiches. For the pork banh mi, it was perfectly seasoned and the pickled vegetables partnered well with the spiciness (medium). I added the egg for an extra $2 and I definitely think it was worth. Although the chicken banh mi was ordered with mild spice, it definitely delivered in flavour. Not to mention, the bread to chicken to vegetable ratio was This was my second time coming here and first time trying the food. It was voted BlogTo's best new cafe of 2018 and I understand why.

This is a cute little spot in the annex! The decor is very cute, filled with plants! The place is small and can fill up quickly, so be wary of that when you enter! We had a vietnamese coffee and a banh mi plate, which consisted of an egg, meatball, ham, and some sauces, a salad on the side, pate dish on the side, and a warm banh mi bun. I loved how fresh and warm the bread was, and all of the flavours were great. The pate is more buttery than the traditional banh mi, but still tasted great. I'd recommend this to anyone in the area, it's cool take on the traditional Vietnamese banh mi! read more

Cute small Vietnamese cafe! My boyfriend & I ordered Deluxe Rustle & Still, Pot of Autumn, Pandan Matcha Latte, and Purple Sweet Potato Latte. Deluxe Rustle & Still Sandwich: Baguette was slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Loved how they spread pate onto the sandwich (not many places use pate anymore) and the meat was given a reasonable amount. The pickled radish were not sweet/sour enough; it still has that fresh radish taste. Maybe it was just that batch that wasn't ready. Pot of Autumn: A hearty pot of soup was perfect for a cold, snowy day! The toasted sliced sesame baguette dipped into the tomato soup complemented each other so well that I have no other words to explain it. You'll have to give this a try yourselves. Pandan Matcha Latte: I had to order it once I saw it on the menu. It was something new and fresh that I never had before. The thought and imagination of how it will taste tasted better than actually trying it. There was a slight pandan fragrant to it, but tastes just like a regular matcha latte. Purple Sweet Potato Latte: After disappointment from the pandan matcha latte; this one offset it. There was a sweet potato fragrant and tastes like a purple sweet potato as well. I would reorder this drink the next time I visit. read more

Delicious banh mi! Love how they give you the option to have mixed meats. The meat was really the star of this sandwich - they were so savoury. It also tasted quite Smokey and charred, so we think they might be grilling the meat instead of taking the typical approach of pan frying it in batches. Either way, really delish sandwich that stands out from the other banh mi spots. read more

Beautiful cafe with great food! The layout is interesting with a variety of cozy tables and seats. I enjoyed getting some sun and doing a little people watching at the big bright window. The variety of plants add such a nice feel to the place. I ordered a pork bahn mi with pate for an additional charge, an Americano and an almond croissant. The bahn mi was so delicious, perfect crusty bread, delicious and flavorful meat, and tangy pickled vegetables. The coffee is great! The only disappointment was the almond croissant, which didn't have an almond paste filling. Even so, the croissant was good and flaky. Service was wonderful and surprisingly attentive. I assumed it was counter service but the barista delivered my food and drink to the table. I'm looking forward to my return visit and their iced drinks in the summer! read more

I love this Café! Rustle & Still is a super cute Vietnamese Café. It's an absolute gem that is quickly gaining popularity. They serve some unique drinks, but very good. The Vietnamese coffee is strong like it should be, and one of the better ones I've had. They have unique drinks like matcha pandan latte and sweet purple potato latte. Their matcha pandan latte is very good and not too sweet. Everything is reasonably priced (~4 a drink), given the area. Like many cafes, they're priced as hot drinks - iced is $0.50 more. You can also add flavour like pandan, matcha into other drinks for $0.50. The decor is super modern contemporary. The atmosphere is very chill and inviting. It's very aesthetically pleasing with lots of natural light, perfect for this age of digital bloggers. ;) As a small location, there's actually a lot of seating. I'm a boba addict - yet, with so many boba places nearby, I always find myself going back to Rustle & Still. I definitely suggest checking them out. This was actually recommended to me by another yelper and I'm so glad she did! read more

Can i just say this place is amazing? Hidden within the rows of korean hair salons and soon tofu places, there now exists a new Vietnamese coffee house. Walking in, we were greeted with the smell of viet coffee and smiling hosts. I absolutely love everything about this cafe, decor is trendy, light and very green with all the plants around the cafe. It gives a very clean but rustic feel even without the heavy wood accents you normally see at other restaurants. Once we ordered, we sat down by the window while the server (aka the owner) brought us our food. We ordered sweet potato latte, iced viet coffee and avocado ice cream (kem bo). I must say, their bahn mi is probably one of the best ones ive had in toronto. The viet coffee and the latte as a close second. Everything was so good i literally wolfed everything down. Their bahn mi featured freshly baked sesame buns with lemon grass pork and house made chicken pate. Unfortunately i had to share the other half of the sandwich with my bf, so this little bite of heaven ended short. They have some serious espresso machines too (if youre a fan of those). All their coffee are sourced from Vietnam, which is stronger and bolder than a lot of the american coffees. Even though I dislike strong coffees from sb or timmies, I absolutely love their viet coffee. Id give that a two thumbs up! I will def come back again to try their pandan latte and have more of that delish banh mi. Thanks for having us! 10/10 recommend. read more

Rustle & Still caught my eye with it's lavendar tinted latte... turns out it was sweet potato latte. So I bookmarked this spot and was hoping my weekend brunches took me close to here. I'm glad I did stop by and enjoyed my drink here. Korea town is FILLED with so many choices of bubble teas. You can shoot out a boba out of a straw and probably hit 2 spots before landing. Trying to find a coffee spot though... much harder. There was my favourite Put a Cone on It but Rustle & Still is a new comer and a welcomed addition. It sits above the street level with a huge window to let in a lot of light. The cafe is cute with it's many little bamboo table seating and lots of plants hanging about. Compared to other spots, it's more much serene and for now, lots of seating to not compete with other people. Service is cordial, polite, and quick. We saw their menu and it had lots of loose leaf teas but also many interesting Asian based drinks. Sweet Potato latte, Matcha Pandan, Vietnamese single origin coffee, and Vietnamese Iced Coffee. They also serve several items of food like banh mi sandwiches and pastries. It was nice to see a young group of owners provide the best they could. Matcha pandan latte - Pandan added to the matcha in such a great way. Pandan is called the 'vanilla of Asia'. It is used in sweets but instead of a warm sweet note of vanilla, it's a lighter and more floral sweetness that gives your drink a more Asian tropical feel. It balanced the bitter matcha. So at first you get hit with the floral sweet notes and then a tiny pop of true matcha at the end. I thought this was a great way to update the normally bitter tea. 4/5 Flat white - I actually liked this a lot. It was closer to a cappuccino with more of a overfrothed top and milkier drink BUT the beans were different. More vegetal and with a greater bitter bite than an earlier spot, it still had a pleasant robust deep coffee flavour. I found it similar to the strong bold coffee notes that I'm used to tasting in the Vietnamese Coffees with hickory. 4/5 Overall, great spot to relax for 30 minutes or more and enjoy some great drinks. They had a few croissants available but they sold out quickly as the matcha ones look so nice! Im glad to see this spot open up in Korea town! read more

With the chill music in the background, all-wooden interior, and lush green foliage, Rustle & Still feels like a spa with a lot more beverage choices. There were quite a few coffee from drip to pour-over, and latte options - featuring Vietnamese-origin coffee and pretty latte art (Rustle & Still's signature banana leaf logo, in a milk-foamy version in each cup). Debating between Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk or a tea, I ended up opting for the Purple Sweet Potato latte: caffeine-free, and something totally unique that I'd never tried before. I was glad I picked it: it was not too sweet, and reminded me of taro bubble tea but with a nutty, roasted sweet potato flavour made milder with plenty of milk (don't worry, it didn't taste like a potato!). Though I missed out on the latte art by picking the iced version rather over a hot cup, I liked that it the iced latte was refreshing and creamy. I'll have to come back for that Vietnamese iced coffee next time... read more

Rustle & Still is located a few minutes away from Bathurst/Bloor on Bloor. The coffee shop is situated on the 2nd floor and is beautifully designed and has drink and food items offered all day (like Vietnamese coffee and banh mis!). The lush greenery/plants and wooden tables/chairs are a nice touch as it conveys a warm and welcoming atmosphere. There is also free wifi which is a bonus if you want to get some work done. I dropped by for lunch on a Monday around 11:30am and the shop was completely empty. I was greeted by the friendly owners as I ordered an Americano and a Rustle & Still banh mi. Total cost of the 2 items was $12. It caught me by surprise that they use direct trade coffee from Vietnamese coffee farmers (which is totally awesome! I will need to ask next time I go if I can buy a bag of beans :D). I definitely enjoyed my Americano as it was perfectly made. The banh mi was amazing as well. I'm a huge fan of these Vietnamese sandwiches so I have tried a variety of them in the city. The bread of the banh mi was toasted just perfectly where it had a great crunch to it without being too hard; it was also warm and all the ingredients in the banh mi worked well together. I have to also give a thumbs up to the homemade pate; it was delicious and worked well with all the flavours of the sandwich, easily the highlight (along with the bread!). Service was very friendly and attentive. As more customers came in, the owners did not hesitate to make sure everyone was satisfied with their orders and also chatted with a few customers. Overall, great food, coffee, and service. Banh mis and coffee are two of my favourite things so it's great that now I have a place to go to if I want to have both at the same time. Will definitely recommend this place to others and be back for more! read more

My first review! How exciting! As a Vietnamese-Canadian I was wildly excited to go here, the only place that I know of its kind. The cafe is located above some stairs, so keep your eyes peeled for the sign on the sidewalk. Upon entry you can see the space is decorated with both potted and hung greenery. The large windows let in a ton of natural light (Instagram photographers rejoice!) and makes me extremely excited to come back when the skies aren't so gloomy. I didn't get to interact too much with the staff because I'm socially inept, but I observed like a creep and service was sublime. My drink of choice was a Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk because, duh. The drink came in two parts: a cup of ice and another cup of espresso layered on top of condensed milk adding to a true Vietnamese coffee experience. This is not the same iced coffee you'll find at your local pho restaurant where the coffee is seventeen parts condensed milk and one part espresso. Rustle and Still's is for the coffee lover and they add just enough sweetened condensed milk to taste great and not feel guilty about it afterwards. There's no doubt in my mind that this will become a Spring/Summer staple and I'll definitely be returning to try one of their signature drinks - the matcha pandan latte or purple sweet potato latte - probably later today if I'm being honest. UPDATE: I returned within two hours and purchased a matcha pandan latte which was delicious. read more

There's two things I love: banh mi & viet coffee. I was really excited to try this place out so I ordered a bunch of things on my first visit. I ordered the garlicky shrimpo, char siu pork, and the lemon grass banh mi. The garlicky shrimpo had a good portion of shrimp and had a nice smell. However, I couldn't taste the garlic and it was dry so I asked for more of their garlic mayo. Overall, all their banh mi's fell short for me. All had potential but was just missing something and they were dry. As for drinks, we got the pandan latte and the viet coffee with condensed milk. I'm not sure why but both drinks were so bitter. I was so confused with everything I tried like were my taste buds off? But my partner agreed and we felt like we were glad to have tried this place but would find it hard to come back. We're open to trying other items but not the ones we had that day. read more

Just what this area needed - a Vietnamese inspired cafe! As soon as I heard of the inventive drinks at Rustle & Still, I knew I had to check it out - if only for the cool Yelp photos I'd get out of it. ;) Well, gut instinct is never wrong when it comes to food and drinks! As soon as I entered this coffee shop, I fell in love with the bright, well-lit, and spacious interior. There are a variety of seating arrangements, including benches, chairs by the window, and a longer table near the back. Their staff are also super kind, which goes a long way when you haven't had your daily coffee fix yet. Now on to the drinks! I ordered the matcha pandan latte because I was intrigued by this unique combination. If you ask at the counter, they let you smell pandan leaves to get a sense of the fragrance that will be in your drink. Essentially, pandan is the "vanilla of Asia," but I found the flavor much less sweeter than vanilla. Very different from anything I've tried before, but it does offset the typical bitter taste of matcha. Probably just my personal preference, but I'm not really sure I actually like the smell of pandan. I also do wish this drink was served a little warmer. At $5.55 after tax, this drink was pretty pricey but good to try for a one-time thing. Anyways, if that doesn't float your boat they also serve up other drinks like a sweet potato latte, more typical coffees, and their take on the vietnamese coffee with condensed milk. I'll have to come back for the vietnamese coffee! I didn't order their bahn mi so can't comment on that. But I did have their carrot cake/bread and would pass on that! It was too dry tasting, as if it was not freshly baked. Overall, I'd give this cafe a 3.5 - it's not the kind of cafe that I'd keep returning to on the daily because of the high price point for the area, but it is the sort of place you go when you want to try something new like the matcha pandan latte! read more

A cafe that serves unique lattes, elevated banh mis and has plenty of seating with natural lighting. I really love everything about Rustle & Still -- the experience from the moment you enter is spot on. This cafe is beautiful aesthetically and the service never fails. I've only ever had their drinks, and each time I've tried something different. The hojicha latte: bold in flavour and freshly made - only ever tried it hot with coconut milk. The iced matcha pandin latte is refreshing during hot days, but a little light on the pandin flavour - so if you're a pandin fanatic it may not fulfill your taste buds. The iced purple sweet potato latte is refreshing as well and such a different flavour. A little more savoury than expected. I think this would be delicious when hot. read more

Lovely Cafe! Came here at 9am on Saturday for a Yelp event. Best way to start the weekend with the chill vibe of the Cafe and delicious food. Tried their specialty banh mi and the friendly staff even put some foam on my hot Vietnamese coffee.

The cafe gives off a relaxing vibe with its plant decor and wooden tables. I tried their sweet purple potato iced latte and found the cost (~$5) reasonable. I also liked that they used metal straws which is more environmentally friendly. Overall, definitely recommend this place for study or a quick catch up with friends. read more

Rustle & Still Café - Sweet purple potato iced latte (~$5) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

The moment I heard Rustle & Still open, I immediately went over to check it out because I love embracing my own culture. Their iced Vietnamese coffee has a strong taste to it. Although they're fairly new, their menu is not entirely complete yet. But for the time being they have banh mi's. I am excited to try their other dishes once they're available. Overall, the interiors are soooo lovely. Very Scandinavian but reminds me of Vietnam as well with the bamboo chairs. It makes me miss home a lot but this cafe will suffice. I'll try to be a regular here lol. You can definitely get some work done from here, I can imagine this place being super busy during the summer time. The staff are extremely friendly as well. I hope this business thrives. read more

Stopped in because the weather app didn't warn me how warm Toronto was gonna be, and also bc someone said this is the best bahm mi in toronto "in her opinion". Idk about it being the best in Toronto since i'm not from here, but it's definitely good. Crispy bread, rich and flavorful meat (not overly sweet or doused in sauce), crunchy pickled vegetables, and a homemade liver patè. Has a good spicy kick, too, which is adjustable to preference. Just let the owner, Tri, know. He's super nice, very humble. Atmosphere is cute and clean, and there's free wifi. Why aren't you here yet? If i lived in Toronto, i'd definitely hit this place up. Also, had an iced pandan latte. The pandan didn't shine through as much as i would've liked, but overall the drink was decent and refreshing. They have milk alternatives for those who are dairy-free. So...why aren't you here yet? read more
