With $8.95, you will get a mediocre sausage and egg breakfast sandwich.

The price was not shown anywhere so you will be surprised when you pay.

Dimension and ingredients are quite impressive for the price. One little piece of red pepper was a bonus.

This might be just my personal experience though your sandwich might be bigger or cheaper.

Big ripoff but might come back when I’m desperate.

don’t get the matcha latte. it just tastes like watered down, slightly sweetened milk. there was a pool of undissolved matcha at the bottom of the my cup.

salads are alright.

food is definitely not worth the price. way too overpriced for how crap the food is.

Long lines (10-15 minutes) and terrible drinks. I don't think I've ever enjoyed the Second Cup drink selection, but it's the only convenient place to get a drink on campus. I typically order an iced matcha latte, cause it's one of the few drinks on the menu I tolerate. However, it's usually warm to the touch despite having a ton of ice cubes in it, which is absolutely perplexing. Try to get a drink on your way to campus - avoid this Second Cup because it's not worth your time or money!

Fair prices, fast service, but no dairy-free baked goods and underwhelming coffee. Super convenient location, so hopefully improvements are made in terms of quality.

Everything here is priced much higher than its value. I don't mind paying more for drinks if they are made well, and I don't mind waiting in line for 10-15 minutes, but to do that all to receive a poorly made drink with poor customer service? I've tried multiple drinks from this Second Cup. No matter what I order, it always seems to be poorly mixed and somehow made with a different consistency every time. Many of the workers barely interact with customers, save for the rare few who smile and greet me.

Thing is, the other Second Cups on campus seem to have better service than this one. I'm not sure if it's because it's constantly busy here or simply because they are not trained well enough, but if you have the choice, please don't order here. Save yourself the headache.

I have come here many times over three years as I frequently have classes in Sidney Smith. The convenience has never justified the quality or price of the product. Many times the staff have been rude, mixing up orders, not vocalizing when orders have been completed and mixing up people’s drinks. I have been a barista and the staff seem completely untrained to make the types of drinks they are serving. The espresso is regularly burnt, as is the milk, and the matcha is mixed poorly if at all. I ordered an iced matcha latte last week and had so many chunks of matcha powder in the drink that I was chewing it. I will not be giving my money to Second Cup going forward, as they seem to have a lack of regard for training and quality standards.

Lined up like everyone else. Got the worst coffee. Tasted like... I don't even know?! Awful. Just ordered a quick regular black coffee. Urns obviously need washing! Was in meeting so couldnt leave so just dumped coffee.

I go to this Second Cup location every once in a blue moon, hoping that I will have a good experience. I am a nice person who always says hi with a smile and says thank you. Yet, at this spot, in the best case scenario, I get disinterested employees who couldn't care less about my purchase. They usually don't even look at me when I pay. In the worst case, scenario, I have been served by employees who are outright and deliberately rude. This is the only Second Cup where I find customer service to be dismal.

Great coffee and lots of seating. But service is often slow.
