Mezaj Coffee is a popular new coffee shop in Rochester…read more The interior decor is stunning with modern lighting, plenty seating like cushion chairs and high end sofas, and hints of gold and green throughout. The display of yummy pastries immediately caught my eye yet the lack of listed prices threw me off. I can attest the mango cheesecake was delicious. As for drinks, we tried the strawberry matcha and the new Dubai chocolate latte! Both drinks were sweet, rich, and delicious! Mezaj Coffee is a wonderful place to catch up with a friend, work, or just enjoy a beautiful drink in a relaxing environment. I'm already looking forward to going back to try more.

I want to love this coffee shop so much since I live nearby, I've been twice and will probably try…read moreit a third time to attempt to find something I like. In all fairness, I'm probably not the target market here - they have a huge drink menu with lots of different syrups and flavorings but I'm more of a no frills coffee person. The first time I got a plain latte and it was just ok, so this time I tried one of their specialties - the Mont Cloud. I assumed it would be mostly coffee and some cream but I guess it was a cloudy day because it was mostly cream (and ice) for $7. I also decided to try the basbusa because I've never had it before, but again ended not being up my alley since it's syrup-soaked. Oh well. The inside is decorated really cute and there's lots of different kinds of seating. They also have an outdoor patio area. Free parking since this coffee shop is located in a little strip mall. 3.5 stars overall.

It's very small with only a few tables, but most folks are carrying-out. I had a tasty white chocolate mocha, but easily could go for a cappuccino, latte or americano. Mrs. E. recommends one of their wonderful bubble tea drinks, sweet potato, to be exact. I'm curious to try their vanilla bean on the next visit. Enjoy Macaroons, Macarons and Mochi. They also have fresh baked cookies and my favourite, moon cakes. They've created a clean, cozy little nook that's well decorated and conveniently located. 07/26

Went there this morning and was charged $.89 cents for a cup of water. I asked the employee at the…read morewindow (who I now assume is a manager) kindly if the policy had changed as I hadn't remembered being charged before and she immediately jumped on the defense and snippily said "well if you have been getting it for free then the employees are in trouble because they aren't allowed to do that" etc. Like... I was asking a valid question, no need to immediately jump on the defense, just answer the question. I thought water was free so I called corporate to ask about this policy and ask why a massive corporation like them feels the need to nickel and dime customers for a cup of water. I can understand paying 10 to 20 cents for the cup, but almost a dollar? Corporate confirmed my suspicion and informed me that the restaurants should NOT be charging for cold water. They are allowed to charge if it was hot water, it was not. So not only was the manager wrong, but she was rude to me about it too. Not returning to this or maybe any other Tim's locations if this is how they treat their customers. I also didn't appreciate how she immediately blamed the employees and spoke negatively about them to a customer, implying that they have done something wrong (when they haven't) especially since SHE is the one who is incorrect. I apologize to the kind employees I have met who have to work with this lady, you all are very nice. This potential manager is the first bad employee I have interacted with here. Edited to add: A male manager called and doubled down on everything and said the rude employee was in the right and they have been charging for water for 2 years. Unsure where the disconnect is between the franchises and corporate as I am getting different information from both. That seals the deal, I'm done with Tims. Good to know you think it's okay for the employees to be rude to customers as well.
