“Stae Café has such a lovely atmosphere, calm, cozy, and perfect for relaxing or catching up with a friend. I ordered a matcha, and while they didn’t have their regular blend, I opted for the higher-grade version (+$1) with lactose-free milk (+$0.90). It ended up costing $10.84 in total, which is a bit on the pricier side, but the drink itself was smooth, refreshing, and really well made. Overall, a great experience but just be prepared to pay a little extra for upgrades.“

“This is our go-to spot for crepe cakes! They’re very cheap for the quality and in comparison to many other cafes/bakeries that sell crepe cakes. We’ve tried the Oreo, mango and Earl grey crepe cake, and they were all so delicious. The cakes were not too sweet which suited our taste. The store is in the underground parking lot, and once you enter, there’s the sweet aroma of cake.

The crepe cake is very delicate with many layers as pictured. The mango crepe cake was great for mango lovers as there was a lot of fresh mango. The earl grey crepe cake was great as well because there was a strong tea flavour and it wasn’t too sweet. There was also an Earl grey jelly on the top layer of the cake. We come here every birthday to order crepe cakes because although crepe cakes are usually the most expensive, X-Cake sells delicious crepe cakes for an affordable price.

We came back for the earl grey crepe cake again and it was delicious as usual. We also tried the mango purple rice crepe cake which was not too sweet, and the purple rice added a unique flavour which we enjoyed!“

Real local coffee shop, when I go there only have one old man watch shop. I think I go wrong place. I think is someone else watch shop.
Ask for one Double Espresso, taste very very good, price also very reasonable, only order one Muffin, also feel satisfy.

“i was going to leave a review about two rude customers from earlier today but it looks like some people already beat me to it ?

a couple and their daughter came in and started holding up the line because they couldn’t decide what to order and then got really offended over the one of the girls turning the ipad over for them to pay and made a huge scene. the workers did the best they could to get them to calm down but they kept throwing a tantrum, ironically their kid was more well behaved than either of them. even after they had their order taken, the husband would not shut up and kept huffing and puffing over the whole situation while the workers were helping other people. they kept saying things like “check the cctv footage” like a bunch of people didn’t witness what had just happened. rude people are so predictable because i knew the photos they were taking would end up on google reviews ? ? ?

anyway, big props to the two girls for handling this situation well. i came with my friend and we are definitely coming back to try the mango milk pudding next time. the matcha mango latte was delicious ?“

“This is a MUST GO TO Restaurant. I went for breakfast on March 20/23. My experience started with the best service from General Manager Gary Anthony. He was friendly, informative, and fast. The breakfast menu has everything. I love Eggs Bennie. While my style was not on the menu, Gary made it happen anyway. THE BEST EGGS BENNIE EVER! Gary recommended the Banana/Orange/Strawberry juice (it says fresh on the menu). I asked if it was "that grocery store brand" that shall not be named here. He said NO, we made it fresh from real fruit in the blender. It was like a smoothie from heaven. I will return often. While I live about 30 - 40 k from this restaurant (I had an appointment near it that morning) - I will be returning again and often. Next time I'm bringing my wife - She'll love it. Thank you Gary.“

Starbucks Cafe • $
60 Ninth Line, Markham

“Two things will tell you if you’re at a good location.1. Exceptional staff and baristas who don’t miss a beat, and 2. The quality and taste of the Nitro Cold Brew. And this location won me at that.I’m a bit particular about the taste of Nitro, and if its pulled wrong or the ratio of water that is mixed in is wrong, it can throw the flavour off. If the tanks and lines aren’t cleaned properly you can get a bitter or strange tasting beverage. There are a lot of moving parts in making sure the cold brew is up to par, and is usually a good indicator as to how much care the staff takes in preparing the cold brew (and likely everything else). That litmus test is what I personally use to know if I want to keep going to a location or not, and I never have issues here.Also special shout-out to JC who knew exactly what I wanted from my Nitro beverage. Incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Keep up the great work. Cheers!“

“Super cute little cafe! We really enjoyed our drinks. We got the latte donut and the butterfly latte (non-caffeinated). For the donut latte they pour it in front of you, allow you to try it and they add some more. Which I found pretty cool. The staff working was very kind, helped us decide what to get by recommending and patiently explaining. The cafe is a bit small with probably around 10 seats. We came on a Friday at around 2:30 and lucky was able to get a seat. Their drinks are a bit pricey though, the donut latte was around $10 and the butterfly latte was around $7. I believe they are also pet friendly. Would definitely come again, loved the vibes!

“We came for some Chinese desert after meal, we ordered the Super Mix (招牌大满贯), I would give it a 10/10 for sure, everything in it was tasty and made just right, the brown sugar is on the side for us to adjust our preferred sweetness. It is a bit on the pricier side but in my opinion well worth it and I anticipate us coming back whenever we are in the area.“

They are incredibly kind and generous — it feels like you’re being welcomed by old friends.
There’s no stinginess in their service; they go above and beyond to make sure you’re happy.

It comes with a crisp sugar top you should take a bite and mix it throughly into the black milk tea. I always get the golden pearls and every sip is a great mix of creamy and chewy goodness. Definitely a nice treat when you want bubble tea and not overly sweet. Make sure to get lite sugar and enjoy!“

“I went there for the first time today to try out the taste.
These tastes feel very authentic and delicious
Although the garlic buns are a little burnt, they are still delicious.
The salad is very thin, the ham is delicious, and the salad dressing is not too much or too little.
The lamb chop is not too smelly and has a strong lamb flavor. The fish fillet is very tasty and the side dishes include broccoli, tomatoes and corn.
Spaghetti is tougher
Fried chicken wings, they have a leafy flavor and are fried enough to be crispy
The French fries are also very delicious and delicious.
Hong Kong-style milk tea is rich enough and the tea base is fragrant enough
I think it tastes better than the milk tea in Hong Kong.

Parking: There are many parking spaces near the restaurant, but I'm not sure how many there are.“

“Visited around 10:45 a.m. on a Tuesday. The café is tucked beside Shoppers Drug Mart, with plenty of parking available. You pass through a charming patio to enter, which was shaded nicely thanks to the size of the Shoppers building.

Given the recent heatwave, we opted to sit indoors. We were greeted at the door and offered the choice between a two-person table tucked farther inside or a four-person table closer to other diners. We chose the smaller table for a bit more privacy and ease of conversation.

Menus were provided right away, followed shortly by tap water. When our server checked in to ask about drinks, we let her know we were fine with just water. Later, when we were ready to order, she came promptly when we called her over.

A standout moment: we ordered just one smoothie, and she kindly asked if we were sharing, then offered to split it into two cups without us even asking. A thoughtful and appreciated gesture.

The Pineapple Banana Smoothie was a highlight. It was perfectly balanced between sweet and tart, and incredibly refreshing.

My sister ordered the Halloumi Benedict. She noted that while the waffles leaned toward a sweeter flavor on their own, the combination of waffle, egg, and halloumi was well-balanced and worked beautifully together. The egg was jammy and spot-on in terms of taste, texture, and presentation.

I had the Fully Loaded, which features a potato waffle topped with bacon bits, sour cream, chives, and cheese. It leaned a bit salty, but not overwhelmingly so, still quite enjoyable overall. I loved the potato waffle which has the slightly crispy edges but was soft to bite with a texture that resembled mash potatoes. As someone who isn't usually crazy about waffles, which was such a nice alternative.

Each of our mains came with a side salad (lightly dressed and refreshing) and a choice of fruit salad, maple baked beans, or potato salad. We both chose the fruit salad, which was impressively varied with orange, grapefruit, watermelon, blueberry, blackberry, and banana.

Note: Payment is cash or debit only.“
