We visited Bulldog Coffee to try their Rainbow Latte, which has gone viral for its colourful latte art. The drink is definitely as eye-catching as the videos make it look and also refreshing . Bulldog also has freshly baked bagels in flavours like salt, poppy seed, sesame, and everything, with your choice of plain or scallion cream cheese. Dipping those hot bagels in the spread and having them with your coffee is the perfect combo. The owner is very friendly and cares about providing the best quality food and service. read more

I've never been here before and wanted to give it a try. Off the bat, the cafe was empty with the door open and I could see flies swarming the cookies out on display. I asked about the rainbow latte since it seemed interesting. I asked the barista what makes it rainbow and he said "the rainbow". Okay, that seems aggressive I thought. I asked if I could have one ho I've never been here before and wanted to give it a try. Off the bat, the cafe was empty with the door open and I could see flies swarming the cookies out on display. I asked about the rainbow latte since it seemed interesting. I asked the barista what makes it rainbow and he said "the rainbow". Okay, that seems aggressive I thought. I asked if I could have one hot and the person there said yes. He asked if I still wanted the oat milk, I said yes, so he started making it iced. When I saw this, I said "oh, I can't have it hot?" And the barista sighed, threw the ice away, and started making it hot. Then the barista said, "you know I have to use alternate milk to make it hot." I have never hear that before, so I said iced was fine, and he rolled his eyes and started making it iced again. He retorted that it steams at different temperatures so he couldn't do oat milk. I've had a lot of lattes at a lot of places and they've never explained that oat was a problem, but okay. Another of us tried to order a tea, but he said no because it wasn't on the pride menu. He then asked if the menus was up or not (it was clearly in front of him). When he was done making the drink, we waited for it, but he said "it's already at the pick up area, go to the pickup area". Then stood there and pointed at the drink. Mind you, I hadn't see any pick up area signed and it was behind their machine. Additionally, there was a poor dog in the corner that also had flys around it that looked a bit sad. Honestly, I understand that our questions might have seemed silly, but we had good intentions of trying a new place. I have never been there before and wanted to give it a shot. Maybe it's because we went during pride when we were in the area? I'm not sure. Obviously we won't be back, but wanted to warn other folks so they don't have a similar experience. read more

A lovely spot, cozy but modern seating. The coffee is simply delicious I would highly recommend getting a latte with a shot of pistachio syrup in it. The baked goods are also all made and baked in house, you can tell because the quality is superb, and it's absolutely delicious. My partner and I both said this was the highlight of our day! We will definitely be back! read more

Bulldog Coffee - Pistachio latte, black coffee, croissant and a cranberry and white chocolate scone. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Just had a sneak peak at something seriously drool-worthy over at @bulldogtoronto and please do yourself a favour because you're going to want to mark your calendars. @bulldogtoronto is going to be serving these New York-style cinnamon buns that are MASSIVE, gooey, and loaded with all the flavours and cinnamon-sugar. My personal favourites are the Pistachio and Marshmallow flavour. And yes, I got to try them before the pop-up drops! Of course, you're going to want to pair it with their new Iced Rainbow Latte. I on the other hand, I stuck with the OG hot Rainbow Latte which is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also tasted great. I will for sure return for their cinnabon as it is truly the BEST IN TOWN. Pop-Up goes live Sunday July 27, 10AM till sold out 89 Granby St You already know the line's gonna be long -- so plan ahead. And thank me later. read more

Tucked into a small street, the cafe itself felt warm and inviting however I am not too sure about my interaction with the barista. Felt a bit aloof and then I felt very rushed to order. I think the experience would have been better if I was a regular customer? Not sure why I am expected to know that the menu is on the wall and not next to the cash near the middle of the counter. Anyway, I got the Bulldog, one of their signature items and it was pretty good. They do have quite an extensive menu and lots of baked items that looked all delicious. Not sure if I will come back. read more

Bulldog Coffee - Bulldog - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I am in Toronto this week for work. One thing I can definitely say about Toronto that is better than Manhattan (where I am from) is they know how to make coffee. Bulldog Coffee is excellent compared to the swill I am used to in NYC. Yes, you can get a good coffee in New York... if you are willing to walk all the way down to SOHO or take the subway to Brooklyn, but in Toronto, apparently everyone knows how to make coffee. You can't get any serious attempt at foam in New York either. Anyhow, I'm not writing this review to bitch about bad coffee in my hometown, it's about Bulldog Coffee. It's good. Go there. read more

One of my biggest joys when travelling in new cities, is exploring for coffee shops. I don't do Starbucks and prefer to support small businesses , so luckily for me this was a quick walk from my place and boy was it wonderful. Exactly the vibe I was going for, small, minimalist, tasty coffee, friendly barista. Highly recommend ! read more

Great service and great coffee! Wednesday morning of our vacation I woke up before everyone else and I was Jonesing for a good coffee so I walked over to Bulldog and when I walked in was immediately greeted with by a very friendly barista. I asked about the macadamia coffee and the barista explained macadamia is actually the type of milk not the type of coffee. Happily I ordered a macadamia macchiato, it was delicious! Seriously this is a psa for everyone do not sleep on macadamia milk it is so so good! I also got a ham and cheese croissant sandwich also delicious! I wish I could have hung out maybe read a book and enjoyed the vibes but I had to get back. Had I not been quite so hung over the next morning I would have stopped by again before we left. read more

A perfect flat white. It had the perfect ratio of espresso and milk, robust taste, and excellent mouthfeel. I only wish I had time to drink it in a mug rather than in a cup because the milk art was great as well. This place lets the quality of the coffee speak for itself. read more

First time customer. Came here because I had heard good things. Passive-aggressive owner who seemed annoyed that I was asking about the croissant flavours when they weren't labelled. Menu is off to the side and is small in size and hard to read. Maybe he thinks that because he has won awards, he doesn't need to have good customer service. If I'm paying $18 for a coffee and a croissant I would hope that there's someone nicer at the counter. read more

He could be pouring gold in a cup and I wouldn't! The guy is standoffish and rude. No greeting, no eye-contact and kinda annoyed with me there. I had to check in with him if he was having an okay day. He was getting paranoid cause I asked him the price for a flat white. Maybe lay off the coffee & drugs or have some water or something! Not spending a single penny here. Left without ordering! read more

This coffee shop appears to be a one-man show. Apparently the barista has won an award. I can't really tell the difference between good and bad coffee, so I'm not going to comment on that. When I look for a new coffee shop is a nice place to sit and talk to my friends. Although the decor is attractive in a spare sort of way, the seating is not very comfortable and when I was there, we were not allowed to use the bathroom. So it doesn't really suit my needs as a comfortable place to hang out and talk to friends. read more

Bulldog Coffee - a view of a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I should've known this was going to be a bad experience when the barista told me "as you know, matcha comes from China..." Like yes, but GOOD matcha is 90% of the time from Japan. The matcha latte I got was that grassy brown you'd expect from low quality matcha. It was grainy and didn't taste like much at all. I need to stick to coffee if I ever come here again. I basically took a sip and tossed this. read more

Came here twice in two days for coffee - and I am totally a fan! I feel that this is the better place for coffee within Assembly Chef's Hall. The coffee flavour is strong and rich, and the lattes are made beautifully. I got the medium flat white with macadamia nut the first time. I asked the barista which alternative milk she recommended, and without hesitation, she responded the macadamia nut. The end result was a flat white that had a slightly but distinct nutty flavour. It was also very full-bodied and creamy - it resembles oat milk more in texture and body, but has the nutty undertones of almond milk. The second time I opted for a cappuccino with almond milk. It was smooth and rich, and utterly amazing. This will definitely be my go-to coffee place when I'm in the area! read more

Stopped here while I was in town visiting a few weeks ago. Primarily stopped to try the famous Rainbow latte. A little pricey but worth it! The coffee was really smooth, and if you order the rainbow the barista (who happens to be the top ranked barista in Toronto it said) gives you a show of adding in the colors to your drink. He was very kind and it shows that he loves what he does. A little hard to find at first. There's a sign on the sidewalk directing you, but I missed it the first time. It's inside the Assembly Chef's Hall. Considering the price it wouldn't be my every day stop, but if I lived there or visited again I'd definitely pop in from time to time to try their other specialty drinks. read more

Great coffee. Not an expert so I can't really comment on the details of the roast or texture or technique (see other reviews), but it tasted pretty damn good. My friend who IS a coffee snob agreed. But wow, the barista (the owner I think) is such an awesome guy! Super nice and friendly, with a highly infectious energy that truly shows how passionate he is about the drinks he makes. The store is right next to the entrance of the Assembly Chef's Hall, and when we walked out after a couple of hours he thanked us with such fierce enthusiasm that I was tempted to stop and get another cup right then and there lol. I would actually come back just to see the smile on his face again (errrrr, I meant that in the most non-weird way possible). Here's to hoping they open other locations ASAP - will be recommending to all my friends (coffee snobs or otherwise). read more

Was having a bad day so needed to get myself a treat. Enter Marshmallow Latte ($6+tax) from Bulldog Coffee. Shortly after drinking it, everything seems right in the world. A unique drink you won't find anywhere, martini glass is filled with marshmallows and drizzled with chocolate sauce and a shot of espresso. Not overly sweet (provided you don't finish the marshmallows) and pretty with the torched marshmallows. Stuart the owner, is such a sweet guy and always smiling. You can tell how passionate he is about his coffee place. Prices are reasonable and justifies the drink cost. Can't wait to come back and try their rainbow latte. read more

Friendly baristas and good coffee with a flare for presentation (rainbow latte). The rainbow latte was really pretty to look at, but nothing too amazing in terms of taste. My girlfriend enjoyed her matcha latte. It was rich and silky without being too sweet. It was my first time at Assembly Hall, but i'll definitely swing by Bulldog Coffee again if i'm in the area again. read more

This shop is very filthy, unkempt, and surprisingly low grade. Above all, there were flies inside that it was disgusting. The owner/barista himself looks as filthy and unhygienic as the shop, and is incredibly rude and full of attitude. I left without getting anything. Not worth it for a trip to this place. This place is called Bulldog because it bites. Its customers. read more

My first time, I loved it. Beautiful latte art and an owner who was sympathetic and interesting. My second time I took a friend and she was horrified (as was I) at how RUDE the owner was to both of us. We were inconveniencing him by ordering. Never again. Which is sad. read more

Thank you Stuart for waking us from our food coma with your delicious coffee. It's the best damn caffeinated drink we've had in a long time!! It's in a food court, a high-end food court, so don't expect to be served! when you're placing your order with Stuart, he doesn't say much (at least when we were there) but you get that vibe from him - nice, sweet, cool, and artsy read more

Independent local shops need all the support they can get during this time, I'd request people to get their coffees from these coffee shops instead of big chains. This one is owned by an award winning Toronto barista. My go to at this place is their marshmallow latte, it comes with two shot of espresso and torched marshmallow, the sweetness of marshmallow blends with bitter espresso and creates a very balanced coffee drink, never had anything like it before. My wife gets a bulldog latte which is also really good. Their banana bread is one of the best I've had from a coffee shop. They also have a rainbow latte, great drink for pride month. read more

I only stayed for a bit, but wish I could've stayed longer. Bulldog Coffee is located inside Assembly Chef's Hall on the first floor of Google's Canada Headquarters. I opted for one of their signature drinks, the Rainbow Latte, that's as sweet as it is pretty, no need for added sugar in this one. They add food coloring to the steamed milk and then pour into the glass in a cute leafy pattern, making an instagram worthy treat for sure. They don't have dedicated seating of their own, but there are plenty of communal picnic tables and benches, filled with cuties on their breaks from their jobs in the financial district. read more

Download the Assembly Hall Application for $5 credit to Bulldog Coffee at Assembly Hall. I opted for the Rainbow Latte since it looks so pretty! It came out to $6.05 (around that) and tasted pretty good. What I didn't like was the attitude of the cashier who was very rude when I tried to give her cash. It was my first time there and I am more than happy to use a credit card but figured since it was $1.05 (after the credit) cash would just take care of it. Instead I had to listen to a long rant or lecture on how she is "cash-free"--I hope the next time she goes in a rant she takes a look at our laws that in Canada you must accept every form of physical Canadian currency. Stuart, the owner was a complete 360--very friendly and nice. If you happen to be on the lady's nice side your experience will be better. read more

Bulldog coffee is inside the assembly chefs hall. I got their infamous rainbow latte just to try. They had their st. Patrick's day special green latte so I tried that. The latte is sweetened. I don't love my latte sweetened so If you don't like yours sweet, should tell them ahead of time. The coffee was pretty smooth. Not bad. But a medium cup costs 6 dollars is pretty steep. This is probably a one time try. read more

One of the best coffee in Toronto! It's a cute little stall located in Assembly Chef's Hall so you can enjoy your coffee with some great food or snacks. Been here a couple of times and gotta say my favourite is the rainbow latte! It is very pretty as the colours add a really nice touch to the coffee. Most of the time, there is a tradeoff between aesthetic and taste / quality but this does not apply to Bulldog Coffee's rainbow latte as it is both beautiful and tasted amazing! Their coffee in general is very good too. My mom only drinks black coffee and she absolutely loves this place. Service is always good too, Stuart is very friendly (havent seen him in a while though)! I remember the very first time we came here (which was quite a while ago) he happily answered our questions about the menu, and offered us to watch him make our lattes which was very entertaining! It's also pretty cool that he's a champion barista :) read more

Could not resist the rainbow latte! Is it gimmicky? Maybe. And at 6$ it's not cheap but for me it was so worth it! Now coffee is life for me. I'm obsessed. So a lovely little latte like this just brings me great joy - and yes it's #latteartporn! Most importantly, the coffee is solid. I don't normally do lattes because I like my coffee strong and not too milky but I enjoyed this a lot. The quality is good. I would definitely return to try their regular coffee I'm sure it's good quality. Their treats also looked amazing. The cafe is located in the amazing Assembly Chef's Hall. Basically every single thing there is excellent and Bulldog Coffee is no exception. It's also a beautiful, modern, spacious area (especially for a food court!) so you really cannot go wrong there. read more
