    Beans!!!!
    Shane S.

    It's been a very long time since I found this awesome Cafe. I was worried about this place because the plaza decided to let Starbucks move in within plain view of this lovely shop. Nice to know that it is still going strong with delightful pastries and, AND now BEANS!!! All you slow pour, french press or Aeropress geeks like me get over here and grab a bag.

    Sandwich packaging.

    I have been wanting to try this place as I kept seeing it around. Finally tried it today with a friend and it didn't disappoint. It's a gem in the neighborhood. It's a small Cafe. It was still early and quiet when we went and we were greeted by the guy who works there I am assuming he is the owner as he is a one man show. The smashed avocado butter croissant was a perfect combination with cream cheese. The Muscle Flex sandwich was pretty good. It comes in neat packaging and good enough for lunch. The matcha drink and the pistachio mocha was good too just need a lot of stirring to blend ingredients. Nice Ambience, good customer service and good food. Worth to try.

    It's been less than a year and what was once a tiny coffee shop sharing a space with a convenience store has blossomed into a full fledged cafe/event space. I hosted a small, intimate event here and had them cater. Justin and Sophia were an absolute pleasure to work with. They gave us different options and worked within our group's budget. We were allowed to move the furniture to accommodate our guests. We asked for the lights to be dimmed, we decorated the tables with candles and asked for the faux fireplace to be turned on; it was a very cozy atmosphere. The food was delicious and the service superb. I appreciated that they treated our guests as warmly as they treat their regular customers: like old friends. Everyone in our party had an excellent time. We would not hesitate doing another event here. Keep an eye on their Facebook page for events showcasing local artists and musicians.

    Delicious croissant!

    Cute cafe with some tables and couches. Unique mix of sandwiches, soups and espressos and teas. Got tea (Tea square brand) and my friend and I shared an Italian croissant and brie and cranberry croissant. Good flavours and so fresh and flaky. I never had a croissant quite like these ones, it's not soft and chewy like the ones in the store, it's more crunchy and crispy. Excellent service! Very friendly and great hospitality!

    Vegan Meatball sandwich!

    So we decided to get some take out lunch, well that's our only choice during this pandemic. So we stopped off at Caffeine and got the meatless meatball sandwich on focaccia, it was absolutely delicious the perfect amount of heat, and great fresh toppings. This isn't a small one either it's rather filling. We also got the Greek salad which we will need to eat for dinner cause we are just too full at the moment. The coffee was solid also. The owners are great and super friendly service. Looking forward to trying more stuff of this menu!

    Stuffed beef patty--so delicious!

    I absolutely love everything about this hole in a wall coffee shop. I came here for a meeting but if I lived in the area, this place would definitely be my "second home" for where I'll do my work. The ambience of this coffee shop is super chills and laid back. I love how there's a variety of couches and tables where you can come meet with friends or take your laptop out to do some work--they have free wifi! Prices for the food and drinks are reasonably cheap; I could totally see myself camping out here all day. The staff are super friendly and checked to make sure that my friends and I are having an enjoyable experience. I got a bagel with cream cheese and my friend got a stuffed beef patty, which is a beef patty with lettuce, tomato, and cheese--what a way to dress up such a common snack!! If you're in this area, you've gotta come here!! You won't regret it!

    Cozy little coffee shop at Victoria Park Terrance, Caffeine is perfect name for one, surprised that it hasnt been taken sooner. The shop has been there for a few years now according to the owner (Justin) but they been part of a convenience store for most of that. They only recently expanded to it current look. (4 weeks ago) Despite not being a big location, it looks roomy and the various sitting like from relaxing chairs near the front to couchs and even tables if you want sit down and eat. I didnt actually eat, I just had an americano coffee (double shot) because I needed the kick to wake me and it was really good coffee. A place I would be a regular if I was closer to area. Props to Justin and his service too, friendly guy, able to talk to people and well its the little things that make the experience better. It could be best coffee in world but if people making it are meserable, you may not visit as often but this definetly wasnt the case. You get both here, good coffee and good service, Got to try the food someday

    Friendly owner. The inferior isn't great, a bit too cluttered. Too much like a community rec room or basement. Latte was not good at all.

From the hostess to the waitstaff. All very polite and welcoming. We observed them with other guests and they seemed very patient with the loud kids...and adults to be fair. LOL We had the big skillet both days as well as the breakfast sandwich. While there were some variances, we enjoyed both experiences. The first visit was better in my opinion - the potatoes were tender and not overcooked and my fruit cup didn't have a lot of cantaloupe. I have shared pictures of the menu as well. We had sparkling water and diet cola both times. Our beverages never ran dry. There is an upstairs that overlooks the first floor dining area. We wondered if anyone had ever spilled a beverage that landed on guests below. We could definitely see the possibility of that happening. They also had a nice patio, however, on the hotter days, not sure how enjoyable the city smell would be while trying to eat. Interesting - they only had one bathroom. So we observed a line. And there are tables right next to the door. I would avoid those seats if possible. A little too close to the restroom in my opinion. If we are in the area again, we would definitely eat here again, although they may be at the new location if we visit in the future. I look forward to seeing the upgraded features at the new location.

Pierina guided us via phone and even came outside of the restaurant and waved as we approached. That was awesome Customer service as well as kindness. Ambiance was chill inside. Especially liked the artwork and table with their name on it. I had the Nutella latte, Nutella and strawberry waffle, and a side of sausage. Didn't like the sausage at all (tasted a bit gamey) but that's probably because ein the states there are nitrates, etc that make it taste better. No biggie! She switched it out for bacon, and that was fine and appreciated. My sister had the breakfast tacos that looked delicious and she really enjoyed. All in all this was a great pick and I would return when im Canada ever again and I'm in the area. Keep up the great work, Pierina. Her welcoming attitude attentiveness and knowledge of the menu was stellar and warrants recognition. Thank you!!!

The almond croissant, when you're lucky enough to claim one before nine, delivers a genuinely impressive balance of shattering, buttery layers and a filling laced generously with almond cream, more Parisian in spirit than most bakeries attempting the same feat across this city. Even the raspberry version, when available, carries the same confident hand in the kitchen. The coffee program deserves equal praise. A well pulled latte and a properly balanced cappuccino suggest a team that treats espresso with the same seriousness as their pastry case, and it shows in the cup. Where the experience finds room to grow is in the choreography of the space itself. The room is petite, charming in its cobalt blue framed way, but the flow between ordering and pickup can feel cramped during a rush, and seating fills quickly. The patio, however, is a genuine reward, a shaded perch worth claiming on a slow afternoon. This is a cafe operating with real ambition and skill, let down only occasionally by its own popularity. Arrive early, claim a croissant while you still can, and settle onto the patio; you'll leave understanding exactly why regulars keep coming back.

Food (3.5/5) - the menu is a combination of small and large plates ideal for sharing. A cosmopolitan menu of diverse items from many different cuisines. - Baja Caesar Salad - baby romaine, corn, caesar dressing, agave bacon, croutons, grana padano, chili spice. This was pretty good, romaine was fresh and sauce not too overpowering with a slight kick to it. - Coconut Shrimp with mango salsa, lime, chipotle aioli. Also pretty good... shrimp was cooked fine and the garnishes worked with it. - Tuna Ceviche with avocado, cilantro, corn, red onions, leche de tigre, cancha, plantain. This one was average. The sashimi chunks were pretty average and the overall mix seemed to lack flavour and moistness. - Hamachi Crudo with avocado, elderflower, pickled strawberry, jalapeño, pistachio, basil, olive oil. This was one pretty bad... some of the worst hamachi I have ever had! Overly fishy and off-colour. Service (4/5) - server and assistants were friendly and generally attentive. Some lapses in check ins from time to time. Rooftop is first come, first serve so a reservation does not mean you will be seated quickly and may have to hang out in the interior bar or tables until ready. Atmosphere (4.75/5) - you really cannot top the view from Kost. It has multiple look out areas besides the patio dining area by the infinity pool. They have a raised photo pedestal which is ideal to take pictures with the Tower, Rogers Centre and lake in the background. They also have some trendy couches and sitting areas as well. The interior dining area is also pretty good with window views outside and a California vibe to it. Overall (4/5) - Yes, the food is on the average side for the price. However, it really is a great atmosphere for dining, even if sitting inside. It is a bucket list destination at a minimum and worth a repeat imo.

They definitely could've used some more seasoning. The pancakes were good with maple syrup- I think the fruit topping was delicious. The pancakes themselves were a little on the drier side but the fruit made them tastier. The ambiance and vibe of the restaurant definitely made the experience worth it.
