30 Best Cafes in Markham

“Stae cafe is one of Markham's best cafe's and a must-visit!

They have vegan, vegetarian, and meal options available, so you can come for the amazing drinks but also get fed good treats here. The indoor portion of the cafe is not dog-friendly, however the patio is and they have a window to the outdoor area so you could technically order from outside. :)

The team here is very friendly, so feel free to ask them questions and explore their seasonal menu items - they're all hits!“

“What a pleasure to have such great quality French pastries and delectables here in Markham. Our favourites are the authentic Chaussons au pommes and Gâteau Basques. Delicious!“

“Awesome mochi! i travel 3 hours on a bus just to get to it. It on my list of things to experience post pandemic.“

“My go to place for crepe cakes. The taro purple rice was unique and we really enjoyed it. Felt like a fusion Chinese dessert in a cake format. The only downside is where the shop is located. If it’s your first time coming here it’s quite challenging to find. The entrance is in the parking lot and you can’t access it on the outside.“

“Absolutely wonderful. The food was affordable and delicious, probably the best I’ve eaten compared to anywhere else. The service was lovely, and made me feel welcomed and comfortable. The atmosphere is extraordinary, very cozy, the type of place to give you warm fuzzies inside while you drink a warm cup of hot chocolate after coming out of the cold. It might be a bit small and not the most suitable for very large amounts of people, but it’s still incredible and I highly recommend it. A great place to visit with friends and family.“

“Wayne's cup has greatest one of a kind Flapjacks and Biscotties ! Made with love and quality! A definite try!! #autismawareness #dayprogram“

“food is fantastic, will definitely be back for more“

“Best Cafe ever they use the best quality I recommended to try 🙏“

“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 ?“

“Stopped in with my daughter for a tea while we were between appointments last week. She decided on a sweet treat while we were there. I can't remember what the amazing gentlemen behind the counter called it but it was a huge hit. Its was like a churro in a muffin shape. Will definitely be back.“

“Took my 2 kids and niece to Markham location and the staff Alyssa and Jenny were AWESOME 👏 Thank you to you both for your assistance offering us seats to sit and watch while we waited! Paintlounge is a great venue for kids, families, girls night out, self-care etc. Highly recommend you check it out! 👌🏼“

“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!“

“Great matcha and a cute vibe!

The actual coffee was nothing special, which was disappointing, but we loved the matcha and looking around at the decorations and books in the shop.

Depending on the time of day you go it can get busy.“

“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.“

“In the 2nd floor of Pacific Mall. It’s now expanded to be slightly larger and also offers more menu items.

Their milk teas are always solid. Cold milk teas cost about $2 more than hot ones.

They now sell bubble waffles. I tried the original flavor and it was crispy between bubbles, but nice and soft within the bubble. Packaging is also cute!“

“This is a great place to get some work done in a small, cozy cafe with strong WiFi and delicious coffee and drinks. They have cute tables and really nice decor too that makes you feel like your studying at a sea-side hut😂 the menu has a lot of variety for sweet and savoury snacks, and the service is easy and quick!“

“Stumbled across this cafe this morning for the first time, saw that they were opened and decided to give them a try. Ordered the Big Breakfast. Service was great, friendly duo, small chats and positive vibes. Price for the food was very solid and the portions were generous compared to most restaurants. Flavours were spot on and very consistent. Glad I decided to take another route today or I wouldn't have been able to find this gem.“

“great ambiance and great food. just loved it.“

“2025 October 4★
Standard bubble tea. Two for one deal. Total under $10 via Uber. Pick up. Apparently not much seating. So really, no hanging around. Unless you are a group of friends who want to stand around, this place is probably only good for the summer as you can hang outside and the nearby park. Otherwise, this is purely a takeout place.“

“Food 4/5
Service 4/5
Vibe 3/5 (food court so nothing fancy)

If you want something fast and not needing to wait in like for those Hong Kong Style Cafe in Markham, this is the place!

It is technically open kitchen😂so everything is made fresh upon your eyes.

I love their pan fried vermicilii and hong kong style ice milk tea! (It can get bitter sometimes so ask for more sugar, they are nice)

Overall great pricing, easy and homey! 5/5“

“yummy yummy and yummy, everything is awesome, cute coffee“

“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.“

“We were just in the neighborhood and thought of Greek for lunch. So great to chance upon Loui’s Kouzina! Started off with complimentary garlic bread (which was a nice touch) and fried calamari that was super good! 👍🏼 We were all excited for the mains and they did not disappoint! 😋 Such a healthy portion for the ‘small plate’! All were fresh and flavorful! Best part of my meal was that they took the meat off the skewers so no struggling with your food! ❤️ Service was friendly and fast. 10 out of 10!“

“Panera has my favorite soup of all time its the broccoli cheddar soup. It is seriously the best and take it every time I go here. We also took the avocodo BLT and its the best sandwich ive ever had! I love coming here for lunch especially. If you haven't tried this place yet then make sure to add it to your list. They never disappoint!“

“The present owner has many years of experience in the authentic Chinese cuisine in Hamilton,Ontario. We used to go to his Hamilton restaurant every weekends for at lest over 10 years until he moved to Markham.. Good food and service too.We really missed him.“

“A good brunch spot place for waffle lovers. We loved the Chicken and waffles, the chicken was so crunchy and crispy.
Loved their Mocha, just absolutely delicious!!! We also got the Spicy Chicken Sandwich which was very flavorful. A cozy spot you shouldn't miss.“

“First time here and the custard crossaint was sooooooooo good! The lady's working there were very lovely, one recommended the gingerbread latte and I was very pleased with it. Will come back!“
