31 Best Cafes in North York

“Wonderful food choices in a well designed setting.“

“Ins風小資咖啡廳，唔錯！“

“Very good cafe bake shop I highly recommended“

“Ordered the strawberry bingsu and one of the lattes. Both were very good and the large bingsu was enough for two people. It has cheesecake bites in it which was very tasty. I would recommend getting the strawberry cake bingsu to get more cake pieces because they are really good“

“Highly recommend: The Knafeh. It’s my favorite Middle Eastern dessert, and I love that they serve it on a hot cast iron plate to keep it warm. Although the texture of the phyllo pastry was a bit too thin, so it became soggy quite quickly as the ice cream melted, which was a bit of a letdown.

Overall: It’s a very cute cafe with a nice atmosphere, and a great option if you’re looking for a spot that stays open late!“

“Today Jan 3, 2025 was my first time here. Beautifully decorated, Clean, generous size delicious baked on the premises blueberry scones, good coffee, friendly helpful staff and owner.

“I just had my first visit. The decor is fantastic. No cookie cutter decor, but original. Great service delicious coffee look forward to next time.“

“Fresh Cup Bubble Tea & Cafe is one of those spots that quietly gets everything right. The drinks are consistently fresh, well balanced, and clearly made with care. The bubble tea has great flavour without being overly sweet, and the texture of the pearls is always on point.
The café itself has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to sit, chat, or just take a break from the day. The staff are friendly, patient, and happy to help with recommendations if you’re unsure what to try.
Prices are very reasonable for the quality, and the menu offers a nice variety beyond just bubble tea, which makes it a great place whether you want a quick drink or a small treat. Definitely a spot worth revisiting and recommending to friends.“

“What an establishment! We are currently hosting our networking event at Eisenberg's every Wednesday Morning at 6:45am. Everyone is loving the food, coffee, and service! Boaz and his staff are amazing!“

“Cafe Kray is such a lovely little find. The vibe is cozy and inviting—perfect for a slow coffee break or a catch-up with friends. Drinks are consistently great (smooth espresso and well-balanced lattes), and the pastry/snack options are fresh and satisfying without being overly heavy. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and the space has that calm energy that makes you want to stay a bit longer. If you’re looking for a warm neighborhood café with solid coffee and a relaxing atmosphere, Cafe Kray is worth a visit.“

“Wow! Unbelievable flavour, heaven in a pastry Incredible dessert to spoil any guests or hosts after dinner.“

“Come into the cafe twice a week. They make an amazing hazelnut coffee. It's never burnt like some other well known coffee shops. I usually get a western sandwich. She makes it delicious. What I love the most, is their positive vibe in the morning. She is handling all types of orders and she still managers to always have a smile on her face.“

“I was here for Macaron Day 2015. So cozy, comfy, beautifully decorated and the juice was delicious, baked goods ween point, coffee was great. The service was wonderful, I am eager to come back!“

“I absolutely love this place! By far the best coffee and pastries in the area. Although they are a relatively new bakery, the reputation that they’ve built for themselves amongst the city, and especially the Lawrence Park community is remarkable!“

“I had lunch at this restaurant and it was an excellent experience—perfect for meeting with a client. The atmosphere was elegant and comfortable, making it an ideal setting for a business lunch.

The food was outstanding. The avocados were perfectly ripe, the deep-fried artichokes were absolutely delicious, and the fish was cooked beautifully. Every dish was impressive.

Overall, it’s a fantastic place to dine, whether for business or a relaxed meal. Highly recommended.“

“I had a great experience at this Tim Hortons thanks to Aayush. His behavior and attitude are always outstanding. He is extremely professional, polite, and respectful every time I visit. Honestly, I’ve rarely seen customer service this good. Aayush always makes the experience pleasant and welcoming. I truly appreciate his hard work and positive attitude. Keep up the great work“

“Very cute and cosy cafe. Love that they use De Mello coffee.“

“Really good food. Big portions.“

“I'm only giving the food a four stars out of five so they can continue to strive towards excellence because what a fantastic experience I had here. It's a place for creatives. It's a place for late nights. It's so fun! I was so happy to bring someone from out of town. We stumbled across it and what a majestic evening, especially with Christmas around the corner and Hanukkah. This was amazing. I highly recommend it. The ambiance they're really great coffee @Lavazza #Ifykyk #😉🫶 made fun content aswell 😜🫰. 🐐“

“always amazing service and great food😋😋“

“Stopped by this local Cafe today despite some negative reviews. I walked in for a latte and hoping for alternative milks which they had a large variety of. The barista explained they're revamping their coffee menu to better suit the community, will be back.“

“Lunik is hands down the most affordable and enjoyable spot on Glendon campus for coffee or a sweet treat. Operated by students as a non-profit co-op, it’s one of the most relaxed and welcoming places to hang out at York — Keele campus included! Even better, you can get involved as a volunteer, meet like-minded people, and learn about sustainability and hands-on democracy. A great place to connect, unwind, and enjoy good coffee!“

“I was just so very impressed indeed with the very great service in which I've received & also for the very lovely food presentation; it's also a very warm, cozy & also most friendly environment to experience

Vegetarian options: They have a very wide variety of vegetarian food; its very tasty & also very reasonably priced as well“

“Honestly everything you need from a coffee shop. Fresh coffee, inexpensive filling delicious bites, outlets and space if you need to work, environment is clean and washrooms are always well kept.

Anecdotally the drip coffee, matcha, and latte's have consistent quality and richness, never watered down. I have diabetes where the barista is always happily accommodating for. Love the bureka pastry i got this week. Very fluffy and tasty.

In terms of staff they're always kind, accommodating, and friendly. If you go often enough, they'll recognize you and say hi.

Highly recommend to drop by or keep as your go to shop“

“Had the best panzerotti! Definitely will go back 😋“

“Great coffee and food ! Love their Iced Brown Sugar Espresso Latte and Creamy Mushroom Toast 😋“
