Categories:
Italian,
Breakfast & Brunch,
Nightlife
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
REALLY?! $7 for a Dulce de Lèche Cheesecake?! Are you kidding me this better be goo... *fork enter mouth, moment of silence, entering a world of ecstasy*
That is all!
2. Grinder
If you like tuna like I like tuna STOP everything and run *scratch that* SPRINT to Grinder for their incredibly genius tuna sandwich.
Soggy or stale bread is in my opinion a sandwich cardinal sin!
So I was reluctant to try this tuna sandwich…More »
3. Spin Dessert Café
If this was just about my amazing Sundae this place would have gotten 5 stars but sadly bad service has reared its ugly head.
Lets see:
11:35pm- walked in, greeted by a hostess and shown our seats. She offered to go through the extensive menu with us…More »
4. Aroma Espresso Bar
Hands down best latte in the city and the little chocolates they give you on the side are just the thing on a cold and dreary day. It's to bad this place is always packed... I can never find a seat :-(

Confused! Everyone here was confused! From the barrista taking my order to the other staff running around in the "kitchen" like chickens with their head cut off; everyone here super frazzled.
After and awesome trip to the AGO, I decided to venture…More »

(416) 251-2233
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Etobicoke
Lattes are by far my caffeinated beverage and this place makes AMAZING Lattes! Ordered a small Hazelnut Latte and just about died!
I would recommend that if you are staying in you order the small vs the medium as the ceramic cups are virtually the…More »

Categories:

This location is stunning: part art gallery upstairs, part commie propaganda saloon downstairs. I was actually in Liberty Village, and my friend said "let's go in here.. (the LV Balzac location)". I immediately got the idea to take transit all the…More »

I popped by today with my friend from out of town and immediately fell in love with the atmosphere. I am a sucker for chandeliers and ones made of wood made to look like horns are really no exception!

Neighbourhoods: West Queen West, Beaconsfield Village
What's up with restaurants in the Queen and Ossington strip closing at 3pm and opening at 6pm?! I mean seriously people, it's 3:30pm on a Friday and I am hungry! Their loss is my win I guess because as a result of this most distasteful realization I…More »

Loved the:
- Comfy leather chairs
- Fireplace

I did not like the Butter Pecan Latte I got though... it was sort of repulsive!
Next time I will have to try a regular one.More »

I have been passing this place via the 30 Lambton once a week for the last few months, with the intentions of one day getting off and grabbing a cup of joe.

I popped by El Almacen Yerba Mate Café for the first time on a dreary Monday hoping for a latte and some grub.
There wasn't much to choose from for food, but I settled on an empanada. Since I was staying in, the barrista said he would bring me my…More »

(416) 703-8881
Categories:

I was excited to try this place after hearing rave reviews about the Red Mocha Latte. Well boys and girls, the hype is real and this drink is the bomb! The Red Mocha has two shots of espresso, hot chocolate and cayenne peppers for a reasonable $3.25.…More »
16. Ezra's Pound
Toronto, ON M6J
(647) 346-8448
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Trinity Bellwoods
Maybe it's because the friend I was with seem to know the barista or maybe it was the cute Harry Potter look alike serving my latte, or the fact that during my 15 minute visit they played only The Magnetic Fields...
Whatever it was I liked it. After a…More »

Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhoods: Little Portugal, Ossington Strip, Trinity Bellwoods, Beaconsfield Village
I was strolling down Ossington and saw a "Home made Gingerbread Ice cream" sign in the window... honestly they had me a homemade! The ice cream was good and rich although I found the flavour a bit overpowering.
Apparently this place is brand new and…More »

(416) 534-7700
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Ossington Strip, Trinity Bellwoods, Beaconsfield Village
I happen to be in the area and needed a caffein fix. The location a bit on the scuzzy side. There are two small tables at the front and a few ratty looking chairs against the wall. Despite the free WiFi, I don't know if I would spend extended periods…More »

Coffee & Tea

OMFG I HAVE FOUND THE EQUIVALENT OF HOT LIQUID GREEN TEA ICE CREAM!
The Pistachio Matcha Noce Latte was great and the perfect appetizer for the sushi dinner I was going to have later. As yummy as my Latte was, it cost more than $5 for a small!
As I…More »
20. Lit Espresso Bar
Toronto, ON M6G 1C9

Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Bickford Park
Joke of the day... What is a cat's favourite flavour of coffee?
I am not going to lie... prior to 2009 I never drank coffee, but two part-time jobs and going back to school at 26 has certainly thrusted me towards a caffein mecca. Coffee houses can be…More »

Categories:
Coffee & Tea,

Neighbourhood: The Junction
I felt super left out during Doppleganger week on Facebook, because frankly there are no celebrities that look like me (and vice versa). I am betting however that my waiter from Littlefish didn't have any problems identifying his... he is a dead…More »
22. Manic Coffee
Toronto, ON M5T 1T3
(416) 966-3888
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
Frankly I don't get what all the fuss is about... if it wasn't for all the hype I would have given this place 3 stars for sure but I feel as though 2 best fits my unimpressed demeanour.
I ordered a coffee and specifically chose a blend that used the…More »
23. Merchants of Green Coffee
I really really wished this place was near me, but alas it's quite the hikes away from Etobicoke (but worth it)! I was visiting my friend in Corktown and helping her through a little life hiccup when she suggested we go for coffee.
She suggested…More »
24. Mercury Espresso Bar
Today I had quite possibly the best Latte I have ever had. The foam was rich and flavourful, the base was strong but tasty and at about $3.
The WiFi was quick and reliable; you just need to ask the barista for the password and your set. I loved that…More »
25. Moonbean Coffee

Category:
Coffee & Tea

Sometimes great company makes all the difference in the world...
The first time I went to Moonbeam I was meeting up with a 'friend' known for her shitty attitude and my life sucks persona. I didn't think it made a difference but just recently I went…More »

I wanted to give my mom her Obama themed mother's day gift (http://www.yelp.ca/biz...) at an Obama themed cafe. I trekked it all the way from Etobicoke to this place only to find it inexplicably closed.
The sign in the window fully says open, and I am…More »

Toronto, ON M6G 1G7
(647) 341-2572
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Palmerston, Bickford Park
Not many seats here but the service was quick and the barista didn't look flustered one bit when we asked for six cappuccinos all at once.
Like Sam G stated, there are no washrooms (which posed quite a problem when doing an espresso crawl).
I should…More »

Alright time to take out the red marker... and give School a lesson in how to run a place that has both the words Cafe and Bakery in its title. I went back to School yesterday and I was very disappointed with my last visit.

Toronto, ON M6J
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Trinity Bellwoods
I've ridden a mule before. They are cute, but slow and inefficient which is a perfect way to describe my experience at the Communal Mule!
When I entered there were two ladies in front of me. Somehow, their combined order of 2 croissants, two lattes…More »
33. The Only Cafe
So this is where my mom threw away all my shit from my childhood! I thought this place was adorable. I was wandering the Danforth and wanted to grab a coffee somewhere.
I ordered a large latte and it was LARGE (the barista handed us our lattes in a…More »

I was looking for a coffee shop with WiFi, and stumbled upon this cute little cafe. I went to the counter and asked for a latte and the barista said she would bring it to me.
After looking around, I realized that this place was more of a restaurant as…More »
35. Williams Coffee Pub
This is one of the very few places in Etobicoke that has both free WiFi and an outdoor seating area. I wished they had more outlets available, but the WiFi was strong and reliable.
I came in and ordered a Chipotle Turkey Club Panini and a large…More »
36. Williams Coffee Pub - CLOSED
I will have to agree with my fellow Yelper, the location is convenient but getting to it is a bit of a bitch...
There is a fence that surrounds most of the building and you have to walk all the way around in order to get in (yes I am lazy!)
I got my…More »

*Insert rocket Onomonopia* The first time I went to Red Rocket I swear I thought the barrista sneezed in my latte. After a few visits, I realized that the uber hipster behind the counter was not releasing mucus into my $4 drink but in fact handing it…More »
