So incredibly disappointed. I've been ordering from their other locations for years. What we got from this store ruins their reputation

The coffee is great but chocolate chip cookies are pretty horrendous, I couldn’t even finish it and I love anything sweet. They’re very crunchy like when you over bake cookies and the middle is very cake like not chewy at all. I’m not sure why everyone recommends this cookie, I can’t believe they’re selling it for $4 each and people are buying them.

Best cookies in the city but have to take away a star because they stopped selling the greatest cookie of all time - the salted butter caramel one! I am heartbroken at this decision 😔

I love this place! Their cookies are amazing- especially the walnut chocolate one. They also make good gifts
Edited: Something has changed. Either they have a different chef or have started cutting corners. The french toast is just fried cinnamon bread now. After trying multiple times I give up.
Definitely try out the weekend special brunch menu. The french toast is the best i have had

Bagel with egg and bacon. Pretty tasteless and just a bit sad. Won’t order it again.

This is one of my favourite brunch spots in Toronto. Brunch is available on weekends and holidays (the cafe opens at 8 am and brunch starts at 9 am). There's seating, but it's counter service only.
I usually get the lemon ricotta pancakes (with berry compote, whipped cream, and lemon curd) -- SO GOOD. This time I got the kothu roti which was delicious. The portions are large. I also got the turmeric latte which I didn't like, but I do like their other drinks like the chai latte. The huevos chilaquiles is great.
Le Gourmand is well known for their chocolate chip cookies -- they're AMAZING!! I love the chocolate walnut cookies and the white chocolate macadamia cookies too.
It's good. I don't think the chocolate cookie is the best in the city but it's worth trying. They gave me a chocolate chip cookie instead of the Salted Butter & Carmel one I ordered :(
The fruit pastries were excellent!
Parking: Hard to find parking. Most likely a side street and walk
I’m not sure who’s giving this place great ratings. My almond croissant was genuinely disgusting and I could not eat it. My sandwich was bad and bland too. Honestly subway is better.

Don’t listen to the bad reviews! Try the chocolate chip cookie yourself! It is amazing! Not too sweet, perfect, crispy corners and soft middle… so nice and worth the price! Spend your $6 ! I did not regret it

The cookie was really good! crunchy and soft. The brownie wasn’t my type of brownie, was hoping it would have been more chewy. The taste was there but it was similar to like a fudge consistency and was so raw.

Rude service. Don't give a hoot about customer food allergies clearly. A liability waiting to happen.
Dietary restrictions: Staff are rude and totally clueless about dietary restrictions. I have been coming to this café since it opened, that's how much I liked it. Last weekend I brought a friend for lunch, she has a severe dairy allergy. She wanted to have a chicken salad wrap. She said "I have a dairy allergy, does the curry chicken salad or jerk chicken salad have any dairy, I have a bad allergy" The cashier (you order at the cash) says "I'll ask the kitchen". She returns and says, yes "it has coconut milk". My friend says "that's not dairy." Cashier rolls her eyes and goes back to the kitchen and then returns and says "it also has cream". We say "this seems to be annoying you". She says "yes, I don't like you, I'm not serving you" and walks away from the cash. If you have an allergy, I don't recommend you eat here, I certainly never will again.
