I love the atmosphere of this cafe, it’s not overwhelming both in interior design and noise level. I especially love the mugs they provide when dining in!!

Best Coffee (Espresso) I had on this whole trip of three weeks in Quebec and Ontario.
The waiter/barristas where super attentive and friendly. The second day the guy did recognize me and asked if I would like a double espresso again. That's a WOW!

I recently visited this charming coffee place and was thoroughly impressed, not only by the quality of their brew but also by the exceptional service. What stood out the most was the kindness of an employee named Gavriel. As I was making my way in with a cane, he noticed my difficulty and went out of his way to bring my drink to the table.

It's rare to encounter such thoughtfulness, and it truly made my visit special. The coffee itself was excellent, rich and flavorful, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. But it was Gavriel's act of kindness that will bring me back.

The special drinks were absolute dog water, especially the shaken espresso with Hojicha and dried orange (?). What’s more, our short interaction with the male barista felt cold and awkward, while watching him act warm and welcoming towards the other Caucasian customers.

Muffin was a little dry, but it was around 3pm! Service was spot on. Busy bee Server but really knows his job! Wish I had his memory cells. Lots of natural lighting, comfy sofa at front highly recommended.

I ordered an iced matcha which I liked, my friend ordered a cappuccino. We were expecting some latter art, but didn’t get any.

We accidentally spilled some coffee on the table and had to clean it ourselves with the napkins. The staff wasn’t very friendly as well.

It's getting harder these days to find vegan breakfast options in the city so I LOVE that they had not only a tofu scramble but a vegan steak wrap option as well for quick easy breakfasts.

One of the best local roasteries! The staff is very welcoming, their coffee is good and from sustainable sources, they have many vegan options for those interested, and the prices arent't that bad, all things considered. I really recommend.

It has been brought to my attention that an employee at this store has been assaulted. Also it seems that the once security team that was patrolling is no longer there helping the people that work there feel safe. Sadly for some reason or another the management seems to be NOT taking responsibility for keeping their employees safe from people that want to harm others. If you like Happy Goat it would be wise for you to go to another one as this one is not what it use to be, from it's once was, a great place to sit and relax, have a coffee, and small bite to eat from your day.

I found the café to be dark in a little bit dingy. The coffee was also weak and small.

We came here 3 days in a row because it is next to our hotel. The coffee and food is good. BUT the servers, yes we had different ones, they never smile! We certainly got the message from their attitude that they don’t want to be there. Sorry!
