On this visit I tried the baklava latte which was divine - not too sweet at all! I had the Spring Grapefruit donut from EnjoyDough which was OUT OF THIS WORLD! My gf had an oat matcha latte and the egg salad toast. We picked up a couple strawberry sprinkle donuts to bring our girls as well. The ambience, the decor, the seating, absolutely everything was perfection! Perfect spot for a visit with a friend or to get some work done on the large wooden tables complete with outlets for your electronics. I cannot wait to come back!!!

It took awhile to come out, being there were hardly any customers that time of day, but when it came out, it was delicious. Nice bright decor with paintings to look at and friendly staff. My friend liked her salad, which came in a large bowl for around 9 dollars. My Salmon Eggs Benedict was around 20 dollars. Their lattes are quite good as well. Although it's a cafe, my friend says their food is quite good. I would go back for the eggs Benedict and coffee.

Both my husband and I have the app so we sampled 4 slices of cake - Strawberry Soft Cream Cake Slice, Blueberry Chiffon Cake Slice, Mango Chiffon Cake Slice, and Crepe Cake Slice.

But really you can't go wrong. Service was good considering how busy it was for cake day. Ambience is bright clean and fun. They have a very diverse menu, so if you like baked goods check them out.

Located in the Ritchie Market, it is one of the first things you see when you walk in the place. The whole market has an industrial look, but it still feels cozy in a way. There are lots of tables for people to sit and enjoy their morning coffee orders, and from the looks all the people working on laptops, there must be WiFi as well. I grabbed and flat white and a mocha. Took a minute our drinks to come out, but I could see the baristas were dealing with a ton of pickup orders. Coffee tasted great and was worth the wait. Also grabbed a croissant which was super flakey and buttery - delicious! They also had a bunch of whole bean coffee varietals for you to take home if you wanna try your hand at a homemade coffee. Street parking only.

Service is nice and they bring your food you your table. The breakfast sandwich is just the right size. Today I tried a sandwich called Anthony Bourdain's Favourite Sandwich.

Parking is generally available but there's street parking too. The flights of coffee are very popular. I recommend Aspen.

If you order a treat to stay, you get that at the til, drinks are picked up at the counter and they call out by beverage order as they are made. My kids were not a fan of the cookie dough donut- it's probably cuz it was a cake donut and they found it a little dry, but I liked it to go with my drink. They also make kid size hot chocolate too and they do a decorative latte finish on top- made my kid feel very fancy & special. I guess some items sell out quickly, I'd like to come back for a chance at the avocado toast before it sells out! Also love how there's free WiFi and a crossword puzzle available!

I am sorry but charging that amount for something pre-made is ridiculous.

Don't forget to ask about their seasonal offerings - today I tried the baklava latte with housemade pistachio, honey, and rose syrup! The speciality items are usually only 50 cents or so more than their regular latte. Staff are always friendly and happy to give you recommendation. The vibe is down to earth trendy. Like their other locations, it's usually fairly busy and lively inside - not a place to read a quiet book generally. But a great place to wake up, energize, and take in the vibrant community. (Capacity is prob 50ish) Two thumbs way up!

This is a really fun cafe and something a little different too. It has coffees, and drinks…read more(including local brews by Alley Kat) as well as food options, but the main draw for this cafe is the board games. For $5/person you have unlimited access to, well there were probably close to a hundred board games if not more, for the durations of your visit. Everything is done on a tab, so you go up and order your food and drinks, let the staff know how many people will be at your table, and then you settle the tab when you leave. That way you don't have to worry about someone taking over your property on Park Avenue during an intense game of Monopoly. I met a couple of friends here and we played several games. First up Jumanji, because I am a child of the 90's and that just sounded awesome. Turns out a board game based on a movie based on a book about a magical board game that can cause an elephant stampede or trap you in the jungle isn't as exciting as it seems. There was a secret decoder in the game that I remember from other 90's board games (like Clue Jr), but the game itself was pretty boring. To be fair it's aimed for those 8 and up, so I'm a bit above that target audience. After that wholesome goodness we needed to go in the other direction, so we played Cards Against Humanity. Or I think we played Cards Against Humanity. There were's directions in the game box so we googled how to play and then kind of made up our own rules. I don't know who won, but it was funny. After humour it was time for a depressing game of Life (at least for me - I lost on all accounts). I think a few of the pieces (some Life tiles for sure) may have been missing from this game. It's bound to happen in a place like this, pieces go missing, break, get torn (hopefully from competitive game use and not someone intentionally trying to be a jerk). That $5 admission fee helps to repair old games and buy new ones, but things aren't perfect. Finally we played Mad Gab, the game where you're reading a nonsensical phrase from a card and you're saying something legit, but you don't know what it is (you have to guess). Turns out my friend had this game as a kid and she whooped us with it, so I know what game I'm not playing with here next time I come here. And yes there'll be a next time, because I think this is a great little cafe, and I love the fact there's somewhere in this odd industrial neighbourhood to grab some food and drinks, and have some fun.
