Very good cappuccino and a nice place for the summer. I enjoy their outdoor area. Always nice finding a place in the city with a patio not surrounded by busy roads. Would be cool to see more food options though

Cutest Neighborhood Café . A Must-Visit!
This is the cutest café in the neighborhood and a true local gem you have to support! Their seasonal coffee options are always fantastic. I recently got their grounded coffee to brew at home, and I'm loving it. Service is good and fast, coffee is always great. Check them out!

The atmosphere of this cozy café is warm and welcoming. It’s situated on a quiet street, with a couple of tables outside, good coffee and some great pastries. As a fan of small cafés with character, I really appreciate that.
The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is because I don’t think an iced coffee, half-filled, in a small plastic cup without a straw (they should have straws) should cost over $5. Other than that, it’s a lovely spot.

Quick and easy grab in the morning. No fuss, no frills. They seem to have a local following with lots of locals carrying their cups, seen in the neighbourhood.

Lemon Bichon and cappuccino were my go-to at Contra Cafe when I used to live nearby. I missed them so much but it takes so much time for me to go there from uptown now.
Thanks the staff for letting me know when are the Lemon Bichon available so that I won't miss them!
Delicious as always. Love them! It made my day💛💛💛
If the store has delivery service, i think i will order a dozen😂

Ultra cute neighborhood cafe. Excellent bakes and drinks. Had one of the best Earl Greys we have ever had. Very family oriented and had a great slow communal feel.

Inviting, laidback setting. Choice of indoor or outdoor tables in sun or shade. You’ll see an abundance of cute dogs out on their walks as well as cyclists in this residential area. Lots of wi-fi, baked goods and tasty coffee. Croissants sold out; eggs cups might be less fresh. The service is good but might be an adjustment because of quiet, subdued manner. Recommended!

A lovely little coffee shop in a beautiful, peaceful area, perfect for starting the day. The coffee is rich and delicious, the baked goods are fresh and flavourful. Prices are reasonable. The cozy patio adds to the charm, making it a great spot to relax or catch up with a friend. Highly recommend!

Really great pastry, I ordered an iced dirty chai and didn’t really get any chai flavour but still enjoyed the coffee. The guy at the till didn’t say anything to me at all while I ordered, which I found rude but slightly entertaining - not sure if it’s the culture here or just him having a bad day but I enjoyed pondering about it while sitting outside. I would return xo
coffee is superior; pastries are excellent. i would have the clementine cake every day of the week if i could. perfect neighbourhood coffee shop tucked away on shaw st. vibes are good, staff are kind, patio is beautiful in nice weather. worth stopping in at (again & again 😉) if you’re in the area.

Really enjoy this cafe. Coffee is great. My wife loves the matcha latte and we always get a breakfast sandwich. The other baked goods are also tasty
I love this café! Get the blueberry scone
