Discovered this place recently and it’s become my new little spot. Coffee and service have both been consistently great, prices are good and they have really tasty overnight oats! The vibe is cozy and welcoming, like hanging out in a friend’s living room. A true gem in Corso Italia.

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.

Amazing coffee. They have the best latte I've ever tried. Sandwiches are also amazing. Price is around 6 something dollars for a latte. It feels like a work cafe bar ( not my vibe :p), and it's very small on the inside.

Great coffee, amazing staff, and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend!
I wandered in with some time to spare and was pleasantly surprised. A steady stream of patrons (many clearly regulars) came and went, each warmly greeted by the friendly staff who chatted with everyone like old friends. The atmosphere had a charming warmth. The coffee was excellent, and I was happy to find a vegan pastry option too. A thoroughly enjoyable experience!

Amazing sandwich and coffee And plenty of space to chill and work
Tasteful coffee with variety of flavours to choose from different countries. Cappuccino, latte, espresso they're all very good. Try their 512 Classic sandwich its delicious! A fabulous place with contemporary setting and Wi-fi available. Simply unwind and enjoy their coffee and light snacks such as muffins, (glutten free available) cookies and croissants. Patio seating. Owners; Mitchell and Hazel are very friendly. Free parking on street. During summer enjoy their refreshing drink like Lichee Cooler. Closed Sundays.

Lion Coffee is just off StClair. Cherry blossom matcha spritzer was beautifully ice-cold and juicy sweet. Also serves detour coffee. Seating is slightly cramped but nice place to co-work or meet friends. Friendly service but table was a tad sticky.

A true gem in the city. If you haven’t been, you’re seriously missing out. The owners and staff are some of the warmest, kindest people you’ll ever meet — their hospitality is unmatched. The coffee? Absolutely incredible. Every cup is made with care and consistency. The rotating art on the walls adds a creative, personal touch, and the food is next level — fresh, thoughtful, and full of flavour. This place isn’t just a coffee shop; it’s a community hub, and it should be at the top of everyone’s list.
