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!!!🫶🏻“

“Hi 👋 to all the Staff @ Haven Brews, Elena and Albert want to thank you for your kindness and generosity.

“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.“

“Great food! Great atmosphere!“

“Very nice place with amicable staff.“

“The espresso base is excellent! It is well extracted, with a full body and a rich, nutty flavour. I ordered a cortado, a 1:1 espresso / milk ratio drink, it had absolutely brilliant balance. The sweetness from the milk perfectly merges the nuttiness of the espresso.

The barista was chill and calm. Grinding the beans, distributing, tamping, steaming the milk, and pouring it all together with a relaxed, unhurried rhythm. No rush, just patience. It’s already a good sign of a good espresso-based coffee.

I’m a retired barista and now just an enthusiast. Had a terrible coffee from somewhere this morning and needed to find a proper one. You saved my day Space Coffee!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

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

“Awesome people making awesome coffee!! 👍“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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 :)“

“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“

“Try out their freshly stocked beans.“

“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.“

“🍵 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“

“The best coffee in town!“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“Hailed coffee feels like a warm hug anyday! It’s the perfect pick me up in the morning before work, a refreshing boost in the afternoon and a cozy companion for winding down in the evening. Their coffees will hit the spot EVERYTIME! Baristas are trained to perfection, your cup of coffee will be made to perfection no matter who is serving you and no matter which location you go! They know how to be consistent. Their baked goods are always made fresh and are packed with the right amount of flavours and love that it never feels overly sweet or too buttery. The chocolates are chef’s kiss - silky, rich and melts in your mouth rivaling the quality of lindt and laderach! (Big compliments to the chocolatier). With options ranging from classics to fruity, dark, and coffee-infused flavors, there’s truly something for everyone. Do not skip out on the chocolates - you’ll thank me later. A small hearty place packed with freshness, cleanliness, solid customer service and flavours that never disappoint!“

“I looooved the eclairs and my Latte. The interior is tasteful and beautiful. The place is very clearn. Service is friendly. Patio is a huge bonus. European novelty drinks like Bumblebee coffee and Blue Matcha Latte make this place stand out.“

“I wish they had a seating area (i do understand is not really possible bc the place is so small). But since I loved everything I tried there, just wish I could have stayed longer to try even more things haha

The service was excellent too. The girl at the cashier was super sweet.“

“My friends and I arrived early for the box bouquet class and had time to enjoy a few drinks while the studio was being prepared. I chose the Ube latte which was delightfully light and sweet and a perfect companion as I arranged my blooms.

The instructor was incredibly kind and clear with her explanations and patient with every question. She struck the perfect balance between guidance and creative freedom and offered gentle suggestions that elevated each composition. The session lasted one hour and we even had time for a quick photo afterward. We received handy bags for carrying our bouquets and detailed care instructions to help our flowers last longer.

The experience was so enjoyable that we are already considering their latte art classes this autumn. I highly recommend this workshop. The price is very reasonable and the welcoming atmosphere makes it truly memorable.“
