A central workstation features a large table with seating for 4-6 people. However, the chairs lack back support and are quite uncomfortable - I ended up standing for the two hours I was there. The café offers Wi-Fi and has four outlets for charging devices. A small iced Americano costs $4.75 (tax included, no tip), though prices don't appear to be displayed anywhere in the store. The pastry selection is limited. Music consists of slow, relaxing tracks that match the café's ambiance, but the volume is a bit too high for conversation or focused work. Service was excellent - very friendly and polite. One staff member asked if the music was too loud and adjusted the volume when I said yes. Later, when I asked for a fork (despite not having ordered food), he kindly found one, washed and dried it in front of me, and handed it over. The washroom was relatively clean, though the handwashing station outside the washroom is cluttered, with items like a fridge and extra tables stored in the area.

Woolshed Coffee is a cozy coffee house just south of Trinity Bellwoods. The decor and feel inside…read morethe cafe is cozy and cool with records, plants, and even a projection of some animation playing on the wall. The space is quite small with only about 8 seats altogether (I'm here at the end of winter so there may be additional outdoor seating in the summer) and it can feel a tad cramped if you like your space. What I ordered: - Oat Milk Matcha Latte Final Thoughts: I ordered the matcha after seeing a rave review, but I personally found it quite weak in matcha flavor and a tad powdery at the bottom of the cup. I've had better matcha elsewhere but would return to try other drinks and for the ambiance of the cafe! A bit of a hidden gem if you like cute, cozy cafes.

While waiting for my order at The Empanada Company, I saw Fair Grounds Cafe and it intrigued me. I…read moredecided to drop by a week later, as I was in the area to get more empanadas. I found parking right in front of the cafe. It's diagonal, pull-in street parking. I walked in. It's a push to get through the door. I was immediately greeted by a friendly, accommodating staff member. I wanted a hot chocolate and asked about the four different ounce sizes. He showed me all the paper white cups. I went with the second-largest size. I also asked that I get soy or some non-dairy beverage added to it. Done! I have a weakness for baked goods. This cafe has vegan options, including pumpkin vegan muffins during my visit. Everything looked so goods, from brownies, to cookies. I saw the large cookie jars staring at me. My gosh, each cookie is larger than the palm of my hand and I have big hands! I wanted a s'mores one so badly. You basically take the tongs, grab your cookie, and place it in a paper bag. I got my hot chocolate and cookie that came to $9. It's not cheap, but it's fair trade goods. I expect to pay slightly more. There is a draft in the cafe, so the merchant bill that I had ripped off the machine before getting my bill blew off the counter and onto the floor. I let the man know, which he appreciated. You can pay by cash, and debit and credit cards. I also provided a tip. As usual, it's up to you. It was a bit of a challenge with full hands to get out of the cafe when you need to pull on the door handle to get out. Luckily, I put my hot chocolate on the bar-like table, pulled the door open, used my foot to keep it open, grabbed my drink, and moved quickly through the door. Problem solved! The hot chocolate is dark chocolate. I happen to love it. If you are more of a milk hot chocolate lover, you might find the hot chocolate to be missing sugar and perhaps taste bitter. I loved it. There was probably more soy in my drink than there should have been, but it was perfect for my less sugary needs. The s'mores cookie is extremely yummy! OMG, if I lived in the neighbourhood, I would buy the jar of cookies every day. It was buttery, chocolatey, and marshmallowy (I know, not a word, but whatever) delicious. It paired nicely with my hot chocolate, as it had slightly more sugar. I would come back just for this cookie alone. There were plenty of seats to sit down. If you sit by the bar-like area with stools, you get a nice view of the area. People-watching is casual in this cafe. It has a nice vibe. You can get a number of fair-trade coffee varieties. I am personally not a coffee connoisseur, but I appreciated both the selection and the cause. I like this cafe. I'd come back to give the muffins and more drink items a taste the next time I'm here.

While the coffee itself was genuinely good the overall experience left something to be desired…read more A cappuccino with almond milk and decaf came to $9.58 a price point that's hard to justify for a small cup. In my experience, most coffee shops, whether large or small chain or independent cafes don't charge separate for decaf and an additional surcharge for alternative milk on top of that feels excessive. Unfortunately, this pricing makes it difficult to see myself returning, especially when comparable or better options are available at reasonable price. I'd encourage management to revisit their pricing structure

They also sell the beans. They had a great selection of quiche, tarts, blondies bars, milk cakes, croissants and sliced loafs. Nice to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea. We got the biscoff latte and the caramel banana latte from the summer menu. Delicious! We forgot to ask for lactose free or alternative milk but it's ok. The lattes were really refreshing and lightly flavored which is perfect. Not too heavy and you can enjoy the entire thing without feeling too heavy. Staff are super friendly and the drinks were pretty quick. There were about 3 couples ordered at the same time and we were in and out within minutes. I also appreciate that at the seating, they ask people not to use laptops cause it's really meant for people to come, enjoy a cup of coffee with friends, and move along. Not a cafe that encourages people to sit for hours and work, given the limited space. The seats are really comfy too. I would love to swing by again for a cup of latte and maybe try a croissant too next time. It's such a cute, cozy neighborhood spot!

The Bana coffee ("Espresso, Caramel-syrup, banana milk") was served cold, which I thought worked perfectly. It's a really tasty, refreshing beverage. The different layers are all really delicious, but the drink is improved immeasurably once you stir it all up. It really did remind me of a banofee pie.

The coffee bar occupies the front of the store where the menu has your usual espresso based drinks as well as signature drinks like the rose latte, cinnamon spiced latte, espresso tonic, and even affogato! They also have matcha drinks as well as a pour over menu as well. Pastries are neatly displayed in a case where there are croissants and other baked goods. I stopped by Rooh Coffee on a Saturday morning. The coffee shop has a sign outside to indicate they are located inside Gamerama. Once you enter, the coffee bar is to your right. I opted to grab a cortado to have there (they have a table inside and another table outside). My order was made at a reasonable time and staff were friendly. They even offered me a coffee rewards card (you can buy 4 drinks and get 15% off your 5th one. Buy 9 drinks and your 10th drink is on them!). I randomly browsed the game shop and there were lots and lots of games for purchase! They also have an old school pac man arcade game in the back as well. Coffee wise, my cortado was made well and tasted great (came with latte art as well!). I enjoyed my coffee while soaking in the sun. Overall, a great new addition to the Midtown area. Great place to grab coffee and pastries!
