Not as sweet as I’d want it to be but that’s just me. I forgot to take a pic before eating it, but my back is so big I couldn’t help but dig in! It’s so delicious and the light sweetness makes me feel skinny and healthy ☺️

Looks good - but the coffee tastes stale, as well as the baked goods and the prices very high - $15 for a coffee and a cinnamon

I love the atmosphere of this place! Decent amount of seating, a lot of outlets to plug your devices in, and the staff are attentive. Great study spot if you want a place to plug in and lock in.

Worst Service ever I have experienced till date. I wanted to give -5 for service if there is any option. It hurts when we pay$ 25 for the coffee and there is no washroom facility available. Very poor service. Recommended only if you want to hurt your feelings.

I have been coming here for 2 years now. I usually see my regular favorite employee on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with some random visits throughout the week. She knows my order pretty darn well and makes it exactly how I like, which is really sweet! Sometimes I’ll come in and she’ll check in the back to see if there are any blueberry muffins in the back if they are out.Though the atmosphere and her service is phenomenal, I noticed when I came in today (Tuesday, March 5th) there was a gentleman working instead. I tried to buy a 24 oz chai latte (which it says on the board that it is $6.50) and I was charged $8.34. I asked him if that was correct, he told me to look at the board. I told him that that wasn’t the price shown and he told me I was probably looking at the wrong size and I informed him I was not— as it’s clear when looking at the board. He did not say anything else and just proceeded to wait for my payment. Then, when I got my chai latte, it tasted just like milk with a little bit of cinnamon. I was really let down. Though I have loved coming here, it seems as though the price is not worth the product. There are other cafes nearby that are not as expensive and are local (not corporate). Usually, just for a muffin and a latte, I spend about $20 (including taxes and a 20% tip).

I like it when my coffee shops are abundant in selection and choices. For Five Coffees’ set up is pleasing to the eye and good for the soul in a place that is otherwise a pretty drab metro station. I’ve only been here a handful of times but from what I can gather is a well run establishment that is offering very yummy food and drinks at an elevated cost. Nevertheless when I’m in a pinch, I like to come here and enjoy the daily soup special, or a nice hot drink crafted in a no-nonsense place and plug away on my computer in silence. Lord I can use some chill music to ease the vibes here.

Good coffee as I've had it many times but be careful of the posted times. Went by here at 6:25PM and they were actually closed even though Google and the posted signs say 7!

I work nearby and wanted to try this spot out, but I don’t plan on going back anytime soon. I purchased a *small* Chai Latte for $6.61 (with tax), and it was so not worth it. I can buy a 32oz carton of chai tea concentrate for less than that! Not to mention, it just tastes like warm milk.The cookies looked REALLY yummy, but $7.20 for a cookie is outrageous. Once again, I’ll just go to Whole Foods for my cookies going forward. ?

Im a little distraught that I didn't get a picture but this is a post I plan on coming back to because For Five was THAT GOOD. I came here with low expectations because coffee spots are always a hit or miss but this coffee store has got it all. The coffee is perfectly brewed every which way they make it. The store is clean and lovely. You feel that you can sit and stay a while. The employees are nice and attentive to detail. Impressed!

Everything here is very tasty, very large and expensive. Coffee drinks are excellent and not more expensive than other places. Food is large and expensive. I had a $17 breakfast sandwich which was truly great, but if they could leave off the side of greens and charge $12 for it I would order it again.

I ordered an iced coffee with coconut milk and a cranberry muffin. The coffee had an unpleasant bitterness, and the muffin had half as many cranberries as it should have. The atmosphere has a hotel lobby vibe; you’re welcome there but everything looks nicer than it actually is in reality. A fine shop if you’ve got time to kill waiting for a train, but I wouldn’t recommend this place as a regular spot.
