Contra Cafe is a Toronto gem. Every baked good is scrumptious, and the baristas pull an excellent cappuccino. The pistachio cookies are out of this world, and the granola is craveable. If you are in the GTA, this is a must visit spot.

I've been trying to go to this cafe for years due to a series of funny scenarios of trying to navigate through the city, and you know the hustle and bustle of 9 to 5. Today, I finally sat down and had me a cup of something delicious!! The flat white with almond milk was absolutely heavenly.

Thank you Contra. Holy moly.

The London fog and clementine almond cake I had were amazing.

I was there working for a few hours and every table was full the entire time, with people coming in for takeaway constantly, so if anything they could do with a much bigger space!

A charming and bustling cafe in midtown. Their coffee is strong but not bitter and hits the spot. The cafe gets busy during the day so seating gets limited. Parking is also limited if you are driving.

Doesn’t get enough credit for having the best breakfast sandwich in the city.
