Good place to hang out, relax and watch the world go by. Won't speak for the food since I've never tried any but the beverages will get you by. Easy to find so it's good for meeting up with people who don't know their way around.

First of all cash only, which is not cool.
Found banana breads & other baked goods to be good, but greasy.
Sandwiches- low effort.
Good coffee/tea selection, nice variety of drinks, but nothing special. I would not say quality.

With a very nice corner location this cute place has a lot of seating and a nice selection of Tea and Coffee drinks.
I am a Coffee snob so I have to admit that I was not impressed with my beverage, or that they basically offer NOthing for my limited diet. I mean at least they could have a naked egg or some potato chips.
Would it be too much to shop across the street at the IGA ?
Must we be tortured by your glutinous mouth watering Cinamon Rolls and Cookies and Cake loaves? -jeez louise! This should be illegal!
I ordered my Soy Capp, drooled on the counter and went across the street for food I can eat.

I used to live right across the street from this place, and time after time it never failed! I don't drink coffee (sorry) but the tea selection is great and they make great specialty drinks as well (i.e. hot chocolate, chai, matcha, etc.).
The food ain't bad either. They have good soups, sandwiches and breakfast things to munch on. Plus, it's easy on the wallet and if you can get a spot, a comfy place to study, read a book, or just people watch.

Higher Grounds on Broadway is a very nice little independent café that is doing its part to keep the neighbourhood from the encroaching franchises. They serve the usual selection of hot and cold beverages alongside sweets and snacks to fill you up and keep you happy. The ambience here is really nice; it's warm and friendly without being imposing, there's funky art on the walls and there is definitely the kind of vibe that makes you feel welcome to stay a little while. Too bad it closes early!

Too bad the place sucks. This cafe is in a lovely building on a lovely corner but the staff are rude and the food is poor quality. The coffee is fine. I grabbed a coffee and a breakfast sandwich and the staff made me feel like a was a nuisance! The woman at the cash register let out a huge sigh and then handed back my change with a flat "here". I don't need people to fawn over me but if you want people to return you need to make them feel welcome.
The breakfast sandwich tasted a bit like sawdust.
