This cafe is almost ALWAYS jam packed with people. In theory it's a great place to hunker down and get work done but it can be really hard to find a free table, and when it's packed it gets quite loud. I usually just take something to go. My favourite drinks are the snow dragon latte (it's a tea latte) and thr matcha latte. I tried their hot chocolate entry for hot chocolate fest this year and it was tasty and interesting-a mix of sweet and salty with the maple and bacon bits.

My husband and I loves this coffee shop. Whenever we need to just unwind and chill we always go here! I also love the fact that they didn’t stick to just plain lattes - I enjoy trying out their specialty coffees as I am not a black coffee person ✌️Personal fave - cafe rolo and great divide!

Barista with blue hair (ur super pretty btw much love to you haha) made my drink.. a caramel macchiato and it was the best i’ve ever had, the cashiers were nice. The place is super busy and loud so if you want to go to work, read, etc… it’s probably not the best place to go. I also had the butternut squash soup and it’s was soooo so good

The latte tastes great and is reasonably priced. They use organic coffee and tea. Baked goods are also tasty, the red velvet cake is a bit too sweet for me but still good. Great music, great vibe, great service. I would definitely come back during Christmas for the fireplace!

Super friendly staff, great energy and atmosphere, and delicious food with amazing portion sizes. Having lunch there made me wonder if I was still in Canada!

The guy from the front was rude with people who doesn’t speak English really good. In that kind of position should be nice people.Bad service.

Good enough cafe mocha and average hot chocolate but a solid 10/10 vibe and ambience with open mic nights. Highly recommended !

We went here for lunch and it was so good! I had chili and toast, also tried the nut and honey latte. I bought a few baked goods to have for dessert later at home, my family loved the cinnamon buns, brownies and the blondie. Service was great, the person who took our order looked up food items to make sure no nuts in the baked goods (for peanut allergy), and had some good recommendations. I was also impressed with how large it is , lots of seating. I would definitely come back again.
