Wonderful relaxed comfortable atmosphere and delicious food and excellent service. I particularly like the tasty and nutritious quiche and salad with strawberries and cheese. The owner, Daniela, is very kind and caring and compassionate and takes a personal interest in her guests. Always a pleasure to visit Cafe 22!

Kind of an insufferable tech bro crowd on a weekday morning. Food isnt very good for the price, but the tea was nice. Its the kind of food id see served at the nursing home I used to work at.

Cafe 22 is my favourite place to go for coffee, a light lunch and/or dessert in the Waterloo Region.
The ambiance is reminiscent of a European café - relaxed and cozy.
The coffee is rich, the sandwiches are delicious and the desserts are decadent.
Daniella the owner and her staff are welcoming, attentive and efficient.
I am so happy to have this little gem in my area and look forward to every visit.

I love this place! Daniela is a wonderful human being and she has stayed true to the vision she created over the years. I used to come here in my university days to write my papers, 10 yrs later, now I come here during my work hours wether to pick up a quick sweet treat, coffee or lunch. I would 1000% recommend this cafe to anyone, whether you want to sit and slow down in busy life, or you need a quick something to go!

Attended a special event here. The food was delicious, excellent service and wonderful staff. I'd recommend that you try the Blondie for dessert, it was so yummy.

this is a great place to hangout with friends or just study by yourself. nothing ever disappoints me regarding the food - my favourite is probably all of the desserts ☺️ they taste amazing!

The environment is very cozy and it's right across the Waterloo Square, which is so cool to watch from there!

This review is primarily for the service. The owner is so sweet, reminds me of an auntie. She genuinely wants her customers to have a good experience. Such genuine service is so hard to find these days.
The space is comfortable and a great place to hangout—no wobbly hard chairs. She truly cares about her customers comfort and enjoyment.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Waterloo!

Café 22 has quickly become one of my favorite spots for both relaxing and working. The atmosphere is cozy, clean, and welcoming — perfect whether you’re meeting a friend or diving into a book with a latte.

Their espresso is rich and smooth, and the food is made with care. I tried their sandwiches and a dessert, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. What really stood out to me was the service — warm, attentive, and genuine.

If you’re looking for a café that feels like a second home, with quality drinks and food to match, Café 22 is definitely worth the visit. I’ll absolutely be coming back!

I love hanging out here! The drink was so good and the food never disappoints. Their desserts are awesome—and I really appreciate how many gluten-free options they have. The vibe inside is super cute and cozy, definitely gives aesthetic goals. Can’t wait to come back and bring my friends along!

This is such a great spot uptown with lots of amazing treats and really great food! The atmosphere is so nice. Daniella, the owner, Is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met and it’s always such a pleasure talking with her and catching up with her. This is truly a treasured local spot and you need to check it out if you have a chance

Nice cozy place. Quiet, clean and vintage style. Even the washroom is very well decorated.
