“ 4.6. Love this cafe. Great space and amazing back patio to read/catch up with a friend/have coffee. The chai concentrate is made in house, also highly recommend the ice tea or breakfast cookie. Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff. They have lots of milk alternatives if needed ”
“ Vibes!!! I visited on a Sunday morning, and even with the rain and thunder, the experience was fantastic. Sitting outdoors amidst the marigolds, I enjoyed the calm breeze and the cooling thunder, a refreshing escape from the Toronto summer heat. ”
“ i love a place that doesn't allow laptops to cover every available space!!! i stumbled across this spot after trying to get a drink at two other cafes with laptop zombies planted with old empty cups taking up every seat. for this reason alone, i will be back. the space itself is bright with natural light, with lots of wood and earth tones. i love the bar seats by the front. the staff members i interacted with were so sweet! they have a beautiful tea selection. i had the hibiscus lemongrass tea - so pretty and delicious. i also got a sandwich that was really well-seasoned and fresh. ”
“ Cute little coffee shop that turns into a bar in the evening with the prettiest backyard patio. They have started having a live DJ in evenings this summer. The drinks are very refreshing. Highly recommend visiting this place. ”
