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 coffee, even better people. Coffee is all about the experience for me. This is it!“

“The food is phenomenal!!!🫶🏻“

“One of the best coffee shops I’ve ever been in. The ambience is cozy, eclectic, and warm, the pastries and drinks are delicious, the owner is so kind, and the greeter of the cafe, Juliette, is the star of the show! I could stay for hours! 🥰🥹😻“

“I accidentally stopped by this cafe today. Once I entered, I felt as if I know everyone there. I saw the owner chatting with everyone and his assistant girl moving among tables like a butterfly. The owner is so gentle. I didn't talk to him, but was monitoring his amazing attitude with ppl. He was sitting with a customer, then he was chatting with another one at the cash. I even saw him cleaning the floor. What an example!
His assistant was serving coffees and food with a real smile on her face. They just made me happy. What a vibe! I got a cappuccino and it was heavenly good! Thanks guys for making your own real community, for dealing with ppl that nice (rare in Toronto). If I wanna come back to Toronto, I would come back just for this coffee shop.“

“Soul Chocolate is a delicious place to grab a treat. The hot chocolate, mochas and frozen hot chocolate are very yummy. The chocolate tart and chocolate chip cookies are a great accompanyment. There's lots of space for babies to hang out here as well. A great place to take your baby and meet up with friends. The staff are so friendly and warm.“

“10/10 - coffee tasted good. Family friendly place, and also perfect for a date.

The baristas are kind and have incredible skills. The foam art was perfect. A little sad that I had to drink it.

Definitely will come again.“

“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. 🥰“

“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!“

“Very clean and nice shop. Very friendly staff. 100% would go back. The toasts is very unique!

Update: very high reviews all around from the kids. The toast pastries as well as the croissant cookies are fantastic. And again we really appreciated the friendly service!“

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

“The cheesy corn had my attention so I decided to give it a try. My other half got the meat lovers one. The corn was unique and tasty.

I did want the side of hashbrown but he ordered it on the sandwich instead. Haha. But absolutely a delicious place.“

“Beautiful place and worth a visit“

“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.“

“Best lentil soup ever! Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mmmmmm“

“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!“

“Buy your beans here and for the love of God don't butcher these artisan beans at home with inexperience

Great coffee shop, wildly fun roasts. Milkshake is impressive with pineapple upside down cake notes, doesnt turn sour. Tropical will get acidic real quick. Ethically sourced. They have very fancy bikes for sale (if you have $3000 + to spare (tire-get it). This is probably my favorite drip coffee spot.“

“Such a lovely coffee shop! Amazed by their varieties of drinks (tea, coffee or even cocktails!) and of course the vibes🥰 will definitely come again in the future“

“Very nice place with amicable staff.“

“Honestly, the gelato was very close to what we’ve had in Italy. The texture, flavour, and quality really reminded us of authentic Italian gelato. The cappuccino was also excellent — rich, thick, and topped with a beautiful crema, just the way we like it. A great spot to enjoy a taste of Italy right here in Toronto. Highly recommend!“

“Wonderful cafe that is very aesthetic and accessible-friendly with very kind staff! They have a great and delicious range of homemade desserts as well as unique delicious drinks. Must note their fresh and super crumbly baked in-house croissants! My favourites are their must try Almond and Medovik cakes! Just the right amount of sweetness for a side of coffee or buckwheat tea ♥ I keep coming back for more!“

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

“Peppermint coffee is great.“

“Expensive. Food wasn't fresh, took over 2h for my drink which was so sweet I couldn't drink it, fungas gnats all over our table, we went as a group and we paid nearly $100 a person for crappy food, service, well if you call reheated appetizers food that is. Each person got 1 piece of appetizer each, from three "courses", we ended up going elsewhere to eat real food... never again. Oh and not to mention, took us over 2h to get there (we were excited and quickly dissapointed), and they charged the same amount for our kids under 8, as they did for adults, as well as a forced tip!! Not worth it, don't waste your time or money.“

“Really cute local coffee shop. I only had a black coffee so can’t comment on their food offer but the place is so relaxed and welcoming, with cool artwork on all the walls. Feels like it would be a good place to spend the day writing or studying as it is spacious and light.“

“Such a cozy little cafe! I've been coming here almost daily during my lunch break this summer, and the baristas are always so kind and welcoming. I've been a regular consumer of their smoothies, particularly the peach smoothie (which is so refreshing!). Their minty lemonade is amazing on a hot summer day, paired with any of their baked goods. I love their sandwiches, they are always fresh and tasty. I will really miss this place and its people!“

“Loved this spot. I was searching for a pet-friendly place that served good-quality matcha, coffee, and pastries, and I found it! The staff is friendly. My mango matcha was tasty, and they served it quickly. The matcha they use is high-quality ceremonial matcha! Definitely a place to come and study or chat with people. It's a peaceful place to be.“

“I’ve been coming here for a while and absolutely love it! I always bring friends who haven’t been before so they can try the amazing croffles. I’m particularly obsessed with the cream on them… it’s seriously the best. I’ve always wondered what kind of cream you guys use because I would love to know what makes it so good!!“

“Awesome people making awesome coffee!! 👍“

“I was drawn to Project Seoul because of their upstairs location and seating that faces Spadina Ave. This cafe is wonderful for getting some work done, relaxing, or catching up with a friend. The staff is nice and I look forward to trying more of the menu!“

“Larry's Place is the perfect neighborhood hangout. The coffee is great, the people are friendly, and you really feel the pulse of the West End here. It's cozy no matter what time of day and it's one of my favorite places to start a Saturday or Sunday with a coffee, croissant and a book. I only get my beans here, the Sunday Special is a fantastic blend.“

“The best coffee in town!“

“Folks, you have to come try the peanut butter and jelly latte here. I was expecting an overly sweetened flavor, but what I got instead was a rich latte that's not too sweet, just lightly topped with a bit of jelly.

We also had the cortado, which I would say is on par with some of the best coffee shops in the city. Overall, I recommend this coffee shop. Just a heads-up: there are a couple of stairs at the entrance, so it might be a concern for those with accessibility needs. Otherwise, Great vibes!“

“This cafe is amazing! Such an expansive drink menu and they’re all so well thought out. I got the signature latte and it was well priced and a large portion. I also really appreciate how the drinks weren’t super sweet and so you could really enjoy the taste of the coffee. Just keep in mind that they don’t have indoor seating so you’ll be taking your drinks to go. I’ll absolutely be back. :)“

“Still hanging on to that Starbucks habit for the non-dairy cold foam? End your enchantment with the two-tailed siren and try Nuttea’s Canadiano with Nut Cream. You won’t regret it… except, why did they have to call it Nut Cream? Updated from previous review on 2026-06-27“

“Very well located, right in front of Riverdale park, super popular and busy but the coffee is smooth and de pastries are divine. It’s always busy but if you cannot find a seat, you can just hangout in the park.
Easy to find parking.“

“Picture this: It's 9pm on a Tuesday night - libraries are closed, most cafes are too. You want to go somewhere with a nice atmosphere (that isn't a bar), have a cup of tea and read your book. Enter GelaTeo! This place is very cozy and was playing great jazz.
I'm excited to make this a regular weeknight haunt. Their ice cream and other treats look amazing as well, can't wait to try!“

“Came in for a quick drink — ended up staying for the coffee and company! I had a regular drip first, but then the barista (super warm!) and I had a great conversation so I got another latte! Would definitely recommend visiting and grabbing your morning coffee here. 10/10!“

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

“I must admit I had anticipated visiting here so much that just locating it was already an adventure. Typical tourist.

But once I arrived, I really enjoyed the ambience, decor and friendly, but reserved vibe. The presentation of the coffee I ordered, a pour over, was very unique, and it's a genius move to provide a glass of sparkling water with the coffee.
One to make sure you have time to savour visiting.“

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

“the drinks and sandwiches are super good, i tried many foods and drinks from this place. my favourite drink is the horchata latte iced. the sandwiches the sloppy, beef jerky, and pigs gone wild is my top 3 sandwiches!! the owner is also very sweet!“

“We ordered chili beef, chilli pork, chicken laphing, chicken momo sizzler and chicken noodles. Every did was mind blowing, the sizzler was oily but I loved it. Laphing was proper spicy - as hot as I love. Chilli beef was good. Will come again, very welcoming place!“

“Try out their freshly stocked beans.“

“Everything tasted authentic, flavourful, and freshly prepared. This restaurant is a wonderful place to discover Ethiopian cuisine, and I would gladly return to try more dishes. Highly recommended for anyone who loves flavourful and unique food!“

“I’m so sad I don’t live in this neighbourhood anymore! Hem Social opened up the week we moved and I crave their pho all the time. Had the pleasure of popping in for a quick lunch today and they still have the best broth in the city. My mom says my hands shake when I’m excited for super tasty food and my hands are not steady!“

“The absolute best coffee shop in Toronto’s South Core / Harbourfront. The iced oat matcha latte w/ strawberry is incredibly good. The staff are amazing and friendly. The atmosphere is chill and stylish. Oh and it’s dog friendly. 🍓🍵🐶“

“I tried the mocha and it was filled to the very top of the cup with pretty embellishment and not too sweet. I enjoyed it. Also indulged a delicious, decent size cheese scone. Yummy.
Met my friend and sat outside where there are 3 rickety tables and chairs. Also a couple small benches and stools.
Dog Central with friendly people. I did not get much of a chance to look inside since it was so busy. Chill vibes - Neighbourhood gem.“

“Amazing Service, Eats, and People!
I got an iced latte and a rasberry croissant, toasted.

Was Superb.
Loved talking to the cafe baristas and the spot was a Quaint-Adorable_Oasis in the middle of the city -- great way to start the morning!“

“Absolutely fantastic coffee place.
Huge variety of coffee. (Serve oat and soy milk), delicious treats and stylish design.
Also they have a little store with really great quality stuff. ( tea pots, cups, French press)
Must visit place.“
