I used to learn music here in the 1980’s, but this coffee and community space was created with the big upgrade a decade or so ago. It is an outstanding spot for meetings, conversations, thinking and best of all, straight up good espresso.Nice staff, Cathedral ceiling between a Heritage building and a contemporary art space. Few like it in the city.

Their oat milk sucks - doesn’t foam and tastes cardboard-like. Great service otherwise!

It's a lovely, airy cafe located inside the music conservatory. You can enter from the east side via the Philosopher's Walk park, or through the conservatory entrance doors on Bloor. The atmosphere is relaxing and pleasant with plenty of light. Washrooms were very clean!Service was friendly and I ordered a hot soy matcha latte and vegan pumpkin chocolate loaf. Both were delicious, and the pumpkin loaf wasnt overpowered with the chocolate pieces. There was few packaged vegan salads in the cold case as well. However, the pastry was a bit overpriced but maybe that's expected for this area. Recommended if you're in the area and don't mind spending a few dollars more than usual.
Nice and calm environment very bright under skyline, part of the Royal Conservatory of Music. But there was no internet for the public like a normal cafe. Matcha latte tastes a little bland.

I'd like to personally congratulate b espresso bar for winning 2023's Driest Pastry Award.Few thought this unassuming cafeteria had any hope of taking home a DriPa. And when they dared to submit an almond croissant -- literally filled with wet paste--, many assumed it was a publicity stunt. But b had the last laugh, sweeping the awards and toppling the reigning champ: a danish excavated from L'Anse aux Meadows.Congratulations on your well-deserved triumph, and may you keep pushing the boundaries of confection dessication!
