Torch Song Cafe is a charming cafe! The moment I stepped in, I appreciated their vintage vibes, and…read morethe lovely records on the shelves. I believe they sell the records as well. The hosts provided good service and it was nice seeing the baker as well. The barista is definitely talented. Loved the art latte. Great music selection, and it added to the ambiance. The London fog and flat white were both delicious. Excellent coffee! The highlight of this trip was the walnut and maple scone - it was simply delectable and not dry at all! The presence of all of those books added a lovely feeling, making this whole experience even more enjoyable and fun. I had a wonderful time here and can't wait to come back again! They need to add a couple more seats but I understand that they're trying to maximize the space. Regardless, I shall return. Highly recommend!

While I didn't buy my cheesecakes directly from them (I got them from a shop in Chinatown), I was…read moredisappointed that the cheesecakes were below average at best considering the cost. Mango calamansi was more tart than expected, while the one barely had any ube flavor. Overall, maybe a 2 to 2.5 but rounded up to 3.

My boyfriend and I were so excited to try this new cafe for our weekly breakfast date and we were…read moretotally obsessed with their bold unique flavours! I've never tried pandan before so I decided to get their pandan latte with oat milk and a pandoodle cookie. My boyfriend got an Ube cookie so we could try both flavours. The cookies were honestly a little too dense for me and I wished they had more flavour in them. The ube cookie was my favourite because it was the sweeter out of the two, I wish the pandoodle tasted more like pandan. My latte was so pretty, but the first sip tasted disgustingly sweet so after some stirring I tried it again and while I thought the the nutty flavour of the pandan was interesting, it ended up being a little too syrupy for my taste. The atmosphere in here is so cute though and we'll definitely have to come back to try more of their pastries! But this is definitely an afternoon work and vibe cafe spot and not a breakfast cafe spot!.

Like people are saying Kashmiri chai is definitely the way to go here. I tried an iced chai (which…read morethey said was the dumm chai), a regular hot chai, and a kashmiri chai with pistachios and the other chai were very traditional in the way they're not sweet at all and a bit bitter. But kashmiri was more modern and really well-balanced, straight up delicious especially with the pistachios! Also dear lord this is one of the best mango lassi I've ever had, definitely don't sleep on that. In general I love this business for its extremely unique presentation and implementation. It has a walk-up window outside you can order from with a table reserved specifically for chai house. Or you can walk into the kebab house restaurant it's attached to and get to the lovely low-lighting and beautifully designed chai house interior where it's filled with cozy seating and a self-serve order kiosk. I ordered a lot and it all came quick which was great. I also ordered both the rice pudding (lahori firni) and carrot pudding (gajar ka halwa) desserts. I wish I asked the best way to have them (temp, add-ins, etc) but 30 mins out of the fridge they had a mild and off-putting flavor for me. Will inquire about them next time I'm in, because I will certainly be back for those delish kashmiri chai and mango lassi!

My best friend and I regularly worked here through all of last year. I love that their upstairs seating area is always clean with lots of open space and comfy chairs to snuggle up in. My go to drink is a 16oz iced oat milk mocha and I love how creamy and rich the chocolate is. It's the perfect amount of sweet to keep sipping while I work on projects. I love that their pastries always change, it was fun to try different things like a passionfruit macron or a scone. While my bestie doesn't live in Cap Hill anymore and we don't visit weekly, we are both eagerly awaiting the next time we can grab coffee and chill at our favourite cafe.

I've seen a few yelp reviews say this place is a little ummmm pretentious or overhyped, well yes they don't do customizations and they really don't want you on your phones when you order but honestly, their drinks are just worth it I always order their Wiener Schokolade in the smallest size and that's only because I do like the strong taste of the coffee when its smaller and don't want to over indulge (it does get sweeter when you order the larger sizes, and remember what I said about no customization) We also had a croissant, it was fine as an accompaniment but nothing amazing.

I tried the Mango Hokkaido milk ice cream along with the fromage cheesecake, and both were definitely tasty. The flavors are authentic and the texture of the cheesecake is as smooth as expected. However, the overall experience felt subpar for a few reasons. The pricing is quite high, and while the food is good, it does not feel like the quality fully justifies the cost. Additionally, the staff members were a bit rude and did not provide a welcoming atmosphere.
