“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.“

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

“Very nice place with amicable staff.“

“Great food! Great atmosphere!“

“This is such a cute and quaint little Cafe. The matcha latte was amazing, so was the panini and grilled cheese. Perfect snack for a chilly fall day. Great prices and pleasant staff! Only downside is that you might find it difficult to find seating during peak hours.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Come here almost every single day for breakfast or lunch or espresso

The service is like. Michelin star restaurant. The food is insanely good and everyone always has a smile on their face

Try ANY sandwich off of the menu. It doesn’t matter. I’ve ate them all and they’re amazing“

“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.“

“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 ✨“

“I like that they have some unique options, like the beetroot latte I had today. But just felt compelled to say that it’s socially criminal to promote a drink that’s just with oatmilk as horchata ?. Horchata is with tiger nuts, rice, jicaro, sesame or melon seeds, etc. … but not oat. and it’s disrespectful to both the history of the drink and also to coffee drinkers in T.O for whom oatmilk is nothing special at this point. Seems like a nice enough atmosphere but there were no observed plugs for anyone hoping to study/work on location.“

“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. 🥰“

“2 things which made for a stellar experience:

1. Came in for a decaf iced americano. Usually decaf is on the lackluster side, but their selection was absolutely delicious.

2. I decided to buy an Aeropress on the whim from this place, but then found I'd be eligible for a discount if I bought it straight from the Aeropress website. The staff here were gracious enough to give me a full refund, no questions asked.

Thank you so much for a beautiful Friday afternoon!“

“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.

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

“Definitely one of the best cafe/coffee shops that I've ever visited! The shop is cozy and relaxing, with really good coffee and pastries!

The real highlight for me was their ube cookie - you can actually taste the ube, and it wasn't overpowering or bland. Just the perfect amount. Highly recommend this spot, and will definitely be coming back again!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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 little, tiny café that offers good coffee and other drinks like matcha latte, etc. There’s no indoor seating, but they have a small patio in the summer. The coffee tastes good, though the espresso is served extremely hot—I even burned myself. If you want to enjoy your drink, head to College Park where you can sit down.“

“Try out their freshly stocked beans.“

“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“

“I love this place, I come often to get some work done while enjoying their delicious pastries. They sell out fast, get there before 11 am!
The donuts, croissants, and focaccia are great.
I tried different coffee options, latte, cappuccino and affogato, all were good.
I would recommend the jasmine tea, if you are a tea fan, it is refreshing and light.“

“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).“

“The best coffee in town!“

“Awesome people making awesome coffee!! 👍“

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

“Very cozy place to study in! The atmosphere is one of my favourite places to study or do work in. I usually get a Strawberry Matcha Latte, it has to be one of the best matcha drinks I’ve had in the city!

The service here is very nice! I’d highly recommend this place for either matcha or for studying! Awesome place.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“It's full of cream, but it's not greasy so I enjoyed it. The subtle yuzu flavor goes so well with it! However, the pastry may have been baked a little longer on purpose, but it had a slightly burnt taste, which was a bit disappointing to me.“

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

“Had an amazing experience on Sunday! Took myself on a date and had a delicious cortado with beans from el Paraiso farm. I love coffee from that farm and have a hard time finding it so was excited to see it!
The barista was also incredibly lovely I felt very welcomed“

“Not the biggest cafe out there, but the food is good, the drinks are pretty high-quality, and the basement is perfect for anyone who wants to do some quiet studying to lo-fi hip-hop beats. The only real issue is that the bathroom isn't accessible as it's in the basement. That said, it is a great spot.“

“Amazing hidden gem! I wish we had the same coffee shop with such yummy crepes (vitamin D crepe is wow) in uptown/midtown! Quite far from where we live, but I really loved their crepes and Freddo cappuccino is out of this world, so I’m ready to drive here weekly 😄Service is great and the lady who was preparing and serving our food is super lovely! Thank you for a great breakfast!“

“Visiting Toronto for first time and had the opportunity to find this cozy cafe with extremely attentive staff. Excellent coffee and pastries. My favorite the spinach and feta! Will definitely visit again if come back to Toronto. Highly recommended!“

“Amazing coffee. Delicious snacks. Friendly staff. The best summer patio in the area. I hope, hope, hope I’ll see them reopen in a few weeks ❤️“

“Well,I don’t know where to start to express my love for rooms coffee.
As a very picky coffee lover I don’t have to struggle anymore when I want some coffee in toronto.
The stuff is very nice and responsible.
The food is so delicious.
I am in love with all rooms coffee locations and it’s my top place to go.“

“Probably the best coffee shop in the city. Great pour over selection, immaculate drinks. Actually know how to make a modern macchiato. Great roasting, great baristas. All round good.“

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

“so amazing omg. Best donut I have ever had in my life. pumpkin deliciousness 😋“

“Ari, who I assume is the owner; knows his espresso. I ordered a double shot of espresso and asked him to a double scuro shot of his darkest roast. He did not dissapoint! I don't venture out this area too much, however I will put this coffeehouse in one of the top in T.O.

Decor is on point and service is amazing. I WILL be back. Will be trying the food at another day, am meeting up with friends for dinner!

Kid-friendliness: Strollers are to be put outside, just an fyi!

Wheelchair accessibility: Coffee place is wide enough to accommodate most wheel chairs.“
