50 Best Coffee Shops in Toronto

“Very lovely experience upon visiting! Such informative description of each coffee item which was suggested, and the one I got was the best I’ve had… and I worked at SB for 4y! 100% recommend!! 💙“

“Great experience! We were traveling in Toronto and came to this place near the water. Great service and delicious food. We had the classic charcuterie board, the grilled chicken pesto sandwich with fries, and the fish filet sandwich with onion rings. Delicious! Thank you.“

“visited Himalayan Coffee House with my kids and we loved it! The art coffee was so cute — it looked just like the pictures and my kids couldn’t stop smiling at it. The drinks weren’t super hot (probably because of the coffee art), but they still tasted really good.

The vibe inside is really cozy and the waitress was super nice and helpful. Everything we tried was good and I honestly really enjoyed the whole experience.

Parking was easy too — there’s a Green P lot right across the street, and since I went on the weekend I found a spot with no problem.

Overall, it’s a great little coffee house to relax and enjoy something fun and different. Definitely coming back!“

“Came in because the Ube latte caught my eye, it was just okay maybe I need to ask for it a bit sweeter next time. Would love to try the strawberry latte next. Also grabbed the croissant and croissant pudding, very good! Loved it a lot (: the Guy at the front was very nice, the look of the store was very cute too.“

“Love this restaurant on Ossington, especially in the summer on their patio. The food is delicious, fresh and colourful. The menu changes every once in a while but the breakfast sandwich is great, worth every penny. I also had their veggie sandwich which I don’t think is on the menu anymore but it was perfect, I hope they bring it back They make nice classic cocktails and have a good selection of wines. It’s not pretentious like some of the other restaurants on the strip.“

“Delicious made-to-order sandwiches, plus pastry and excellent coffee. Friendly, efficient service. Covered northeast patio - St. Clair West at Kenwood. Good value - shop local.“

“The food is phenomenal!!!🫶🏻“

“What a beautiful cafe!

This one set the bar high with its cozy interior, delicious food, the most friendly server and a nice little patio.
The hot turmeric tea was surprisingly satisfying and exactly what i needed on a rainy afternoon. The sun-dried tomato baked thingy was chumma 🤌 I had a chocolate croissant to go (not in the picture).

A cafe worth stopping by.“

“Saw your post yesterday about the blossoms which prompted me to visit you guys as part of my adventure to Queen’s Park. Great staff, great coffee, great food. 🥰“

“Excellent cortados with a choice of beans roasted by Hatch or by a guest Australian roaster that rotates regularly. Come early for the good seats up front.“

“Loved this little coffee bar ❤️. Awesome chai tea , croissant, and the best egg salad sandwich I’ve ever had .“

“Great food! Great atmosphere!“

“Very nice place with amicable staff.“

“Not to be a self proclaimed coffee expert butttttttt I do frequent a lot of coffee shops in the west and Fungo is for sure one of the best. The owner (who is super friendly) is clearly extremely knowledgeable on coffee and the espresso is amazing. They also make speciality lattes and matcha which are equally as good.“

“It's a shame this place closes so early, since it's such a lovely place to get work done. I like the london fog with oat milk. It's nice and flavourful. I'll have to come here again to try the snacks and coffee, but I wasn't disappointed at all.“

“It's a cafe where you can enjoy high quality coffee in a sophisticated atmosphere. The interior of the store is simple but stylish and comfortable, perfect for relaxing with friends. The coffee that our baristas carefully brew has a deep flavor and is truly delicious. The flat white is especially popular, and its smooth texture is addictive. They also have desserts, so we recommend enjoying them with coffee. It's a place where you can forget about your busy daily life and have a relaxing time.“

“Friends and coworkers have been suggesting this place for a while. Price is good for what is given. Bread is fluffy and soft but has a great light toast so there is great texture with each bite. Hash brown was flavourful and doesn’t need any condiments to eat. It’s a great breakfast or brunch option. I will eat here again.“

“This place is an absolute secret gem Bloor Village! Viktor's knowledge and passion will always encourage you to try some new exotic flavors! Lavender Latte was superior! Made with authentic Lavender Extract from France, a proper way of preparing and quality! This place is addictive, with a pleasant ambiance and a genuinely friendly service! You can enjoy it inside or on a patio :) Highly recommend!“

“I had so much fun at the Chocolate Workshop hosted by Adrian. He’s so energetic and passionate about chocolate making. I loved learning the history about chocolate and the various brands. The taste testing experience and little quiz at the end was a great way to end the session!“

“Wonderful in every way, all the time, always“

“I’m not a downtowner, so on a cold evening out there, we were in search for a hot chocolate after reading reviews.
This nice cozy cafe didn’t disappoint us. Loved the hot chocolate here, although we shouldn’t have added the whipped cream as that made it go colder at a faster pace.

A cold evening, hot chocolate and lovely company made up the atmosphere 5 stars ✨“

“Walking along Harbord looking for a good cup of coffee. I asked some locals who led me here, to Pedaal. Boy was I impressed. The coffee was 10/10. I had an Americano which the owner explained to me was a Brazilian bean from a high altitude which I believe was roasted in Montreal. Regardless. It was VERY good. I bought the beans. This is a passion of the owner who used to home roast / brew before opening the store.“

“A café built from pure feelings — and you can truly feel it!
This place has such a calm, genuine vibe that makes you want to stay for hours. The coffee is excellent, the atmosphere feels sincere and heartfelt, and everything seems made with care. Hamoon, the owner, is incredibly friendly and welcoming — he makes you feel like you’re visiting a friend, not just a café. Definitely one of those rare spots that’s full of warmth and authenticity.
Highly recommended!“

“I was there during Nuit Blanche tonight. Bright, clean and friendly staff! But the best thing was the cupcakes! They are the best cupcakes ever! Moist, extremely fresh cake and not overly sweet icing. Perfection. Going back tomorrow to try the cookies!“

“I love this place. Youssef is a great guy. The atmosphere is one that’s very warm and inviting. I just feel very comfortable being there.

Add to that it’s a 7 minute walk from my place.

The desserts, which I promised myself one each weekend, makes the anticipation great. And I’m always happily satisfied . So far I have not been disappointed but rather pleasantly rewarded.

Add to that the place is open beyond 10 pm most weeknights. The perfect place to bring a laptop, knock off a few work emails or just chill after a long day.

I’ve been there 6 times so far and each time it’s becoming more of a place I look forward to going to.

The cold, snowy winters will be better tolerated with a warm spot like this.

I love this place.

“Awesome people making awesome coffee!! 👍“

“Lovely atmosphere, great selection of food, friendly service 😊“

“This is a very warm place with beautiful decor and friendly staff. The location is convenient and it is in one of the oldest multicultural neighborhoods. This cafe also has tasty goodies, sandwiches, pastries and one of the best coffees in town, De Mello. I highly recommend Ninetails Coffee Bar.“

“Nice place for our planning group to meet up!“

“This is the go to place in the neighbourhood. The atmosphere is so pleasant and colourful. The food is delicious, especially the home made breakfast. Yonder, Rebecca, Cynthia and Kevin are friendly and can remember your order with a quick smile and a hello. When you come in, it’s like you’re family. Come to Nicaroma and enjoy home away from home!“

“My first experience with Ethica Coffee Roasters began when I purchased a bag of their coffee from another source. Today, however, I received my very first 1kg order directly from Ethica. I was so impressed back then that I could hardly find the right words—and now I feel the same. Of course, the most important part is the coffee itself, and I won’t try to overdescribe it: it is simply sublime. I truly believe that the quality—or even the happiness—of life depends on small details, and the coffee I get from Ethica absolutely makes my life better.

I don’t even need to mention how beautiful the packaging is—it’s just perfect in every detail. On top of that, I received a sticker and even a card that can be exchanged for a cup of coffee, which was such a thoughtful touch.

Even though I live in London, I definitely want to visit their café in Toronto one day, and I hope I’ll be able to do it soon.

Your attention to detail, your outstanding coffee, and the kindness that can be felt even while unpacking the box have truly won me over. You’ve got a loyal customer in me. I wish you the best of luck—and continued success, though I’m not sure how you could possibly get any better.“

“A little hidden oasis in somewhat of a rough patch of the city. Great for cosy dates as well as quiet moments with a book or a laptop. They offer good quality selection of coffee and tea. I liked their choice of music which enhances the overall classy atmosphere. The food and pastry, as well as the service never disappointed us. Warmer months on their patio are equally enjoyable as their indoor environment. Word of caution - you won't like it if you dislike the scent of freshly baked butter-based delicacies.“

“A Latin and Asian fusion cafe!! GREAT, FUN owners!

Originally visited on September 28! ☺️ I had extra time before a work event and came here for breakfast! I was drawn to the name of the coffee shop, and thought the yellow chairs outside were cute.

For food, I ordered the ham and cheese croissant sandwich and Groovy Smoothie. Everything was soooo fresh!! I had ask the owner his name (Rolando) and told him I could taste how fresh everything was. He was so happy to hear this and shared that he makes everything in the morning! ?☺️

I also asked him where the name Capulus came from and what inspired him to use this name for the cafe, and he said that in Latin, it means coffee.

We chatted a bit about the cafe! His business partner is from the Philippines, which is why they have a lechon inspired sandwich (without the crackling) and she taught him how to cook it. They also have drinks like ube lattes. They're a fusion cafe, which is why their menu has Latin and Asian inspired food! ?

It is a cozy cafe, and I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I did hear Rolando say that they get the same customers coming to the cafe 2 to 3 times a day ? which is sooooo nice! ?❤️

Wheelchair accessibility: There are a couple of tables outside (see attached photos), but the inside is not wheelchair accessible (the tables and chairs are higher and attached to the walls).“

“Great coffee and customer service with the cutest cups. #supportlocal.“

“Legit good coffee and I know my latte lol! Only problem from preventing frequent visit is no street parking but lucky for ppl live around the block. One of the best coffee in Toronto Robust and smooth coffee flavour perfectly blended with the silkiness of milk“

“Only option in the Oakwood Village neighbourhood! Simply the best!“

“Larry’s Place is one of those gems you’re happy to discover. The moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and inviting, with a cozy setup that makes you want to stay a while. The staff are friendly and attentive, always making sure you feel taken care of without being overbearing.
The highlight for me is definitely the coffee—it’s amazing! You can tell they take pride in how they brew it. The flavor is rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced, easily one of the best cups I’ve had in a long time. It’s the kind of coffee you look forward to, whether it’s your morning boost or an afternoon pick-me-up.
On top of that, the food is fresh and flavorful, with generous portions that feel like real value for money. Everything we tried tasted homemade and carefully prepared.
Larry’s Place is more than just a café—it’s the kind of spot that makes you want to come back again and again, whether for a coffee break, a casual meal, or to spend some time with friends. Highly recommended!“

“so many drinks and food options! i loved how they have summer special drinks and a selection of food for breakfast and lunch. can’t wait for the autumn drinks😍 i loved the ambience and interior of the coffeehouse. a convenient and great place to catchup with friends or get work done. lots of space available.“

“Small cafe with a bright atmosphere and great drinks! Prices are very reasonable and support an important initiative to empower individuals with learning and developmental disabilities. Looking forward to seeing this cafe expand in the near future :)“

“My dad is in the hospital and requested a decaf latte at 7pm. Tim’s doesn’t carry them and everything else has been closed for hours. The hours here really helped us. Dad said it was the best latte he’s ever had! He took a picture of the cup so he can tell all his nurses about it, haha. Thank you!l for being open later! I’m coming for another latte tomorrow!“

“I try to come here every time I’m in the neighbourhood! The best decaf coffee (cappuccino) I’ve had in a long time, it’s smooth and full body tasting and not bitter at all. Owners/staff were super lovely and kind. Seems like a real community place. Also has vegan and non dairy milk options.“

“Mallo is my favourite because of the people who make it tick“

“Cozy spot to sit and enjoy authentic South Indian snacks. The filter coffee was really good—strong and flavorful—and the masala vada was perfectly crispy. I even ordered a second cup of coffee, but it didn’t taste quite the same as the first one. Would’ve loved to stay longer, but the ladies sitting next to us was very loud, so we left earlier than planned. Still, a nice place overall for good coffee and bites.“

“Try out their freshly stocked beans.“

“The best coffee in town!“

“🍵 Matcha lovers, assemble!Waited 30 minutes in line but finally got my hands on the Strawberry Matcha Latte from ICHA – absolutely worth it!

Their new Summer Breeze drinks are perfect for sunny days – light, refreshing, and beautifully crafted.

My fave? The Sunny Matcha Cheesy – bold matcha meets airy cheese foam. It’s layered, aromatic, and SO satisfying

✨ Must-tries for summer season:
1️⃣ Blush Breeze – lychee, sparkling water, rose petals 💗
2️⃣ Peach Camellia Americano – floral + fruity
3️⃣ Jade Breeze – fresh green tea vibes
4️⃣ Sunny Matcha Cheesy – matcha meets creamy cheese top“

“Such a cozy and cute coffee shop! One of the best flat whites I’ve had in Toronto and I loved the cranberry oat cookie! It’s a great place to stop when you’re out for a walk!

There is also more sitting in the basement where they play black and white movies“

“Zoe makes the best carrot cake in the world. It is a global first place. Absolutely smashing. Run, don’t walk. Line up. To get this carrot cake.“

“Janelle's is such a cute little spot with the most delicious breakfast. The quiche and the breakfast sandwich are excellent and so is the banana bread. Can't wait to come back!“
