Like Starbucks, but betterEdit April 2024: place got degraded: rushed made coffee, only plastic cups and no wifi

The coffee here is SOUR. The staff, service and atmosphere are nice. The pricing is not. $3.75 for a sour coffee brew is not my idea of good coffee. An Americano was made with a different blend as a replacement to the large brew, but it was also sour even with cream added. I've never been served sour coffee in all my times to Europe or with any roast of beans in Canada and the US. I am not sure how so many patrons can drink this. The taste resembled berry tea. Yikes. I could not drink more than a quarter of the sour Pilot that soured my mood at almost double the price of other coffee shops. It seems coffee is being redefined... No thank you. Also they don't take legal tender here. ?

Really bright, open space with lots of seating. Brewed coffee tasted just okay. Lattes looked better.

Great spot for a coffee. Large, bright open concept space. I've stopped in a few times now just to grab a coffee to go and they honestly always have the best music playing that gets me in a great mood. Service is about par for the course for millennial/Gen Z - slightly sullen, slightly aloof, but in a friendly, too-cool-for-school kind of way. I don't mind as long as my cappuccino is hot and well executed. The tip prompts on the tap/POS machine are a bit ridiculous, but whatever. Good coffee is what I'm there for, and that's what I get... I've gotten a muffin once, it was decent.Parking: Always tough to find parking on Ossington...

I absolutely adore this coffee shop. It's a fantastic spot for focused work sessions, reading, or catching up with friends. The entire team consistently goes above and beyond to ensure an exceptional experience. Juan, in particular, stands out as the friendliest barista in town.I particularly enjoyed their long black and lattes, and I'm eagerly anticipating trying their single-source coffees.Highly recommended for fellow coffee enthusiasts in Toronto.

Juan, the barista at Coffee Pilot, is the friendliest guy around. He always greets customers with a warm smile and makes them feel right at home. The coffee is top-notch, and the pastries are delicious. Whether you're stopping by for a quick caffeine fix or settling in to enjoy the cozy atmosphere, Juan makes sure you have a great experience. I highly recommend Coffee Pilot!

Really nice space - only got a takeaway coffee but the service was great and the coffee was perfect.
Went in yesterday around 5:20 because it closes at 6:00 and the chairs were on the table and the person behind the counter quickly walked away and I stood standing there waiting. Looks like customer services not an issue when it's close to closing time and going home. However, I would try it again. Maybe the owner or management will correct this kind of behavior towards customers.

Great atmosphere, love the interior and how everything is placed and arranged. Good place to have a coffee of course and meet people. In this specific day I tried, I would have preferred the music to be down a notch. Its a bit too loud for me to focus on work or read a book. I wanted to try their Honey Chai Latte which tasted like a normal chai to me but no complaints. Hot chocolate was really nice too and my friend liked it. Everything less sweetened which is good, you can always ask for extra simple syrup or tell the barista that you like your coffee sweet.

I love the coffee they have, good place to work on the computer, sometimes the air conditioning is high. The service is good and the atmosphere is calm. I recommend americano el Vesuvio.

Went in to grab a coffee and go and I was told no dogs allowed ???And if this is how you’re operating your business then put a big sign outside “NO DOGS ALLOWED” so dog owners don’t waste money at your shop!All I wanted to do is grab a coffee and go!

Should prob do a no laptop time/area, no seating available due to every table being taken by single people on laptops!
