Cute little shop that serves a variety of drinks and light food items…read more While walking along Whyt Ave, I was looking for a nice little drink. I decided to stop by Woodrack cafe for an iced tea to quench my thirst. Service was very fast in getting me my drink of choice, an iced cucumber lime mint green tea. It was nice and refreshing. I really also liked the inside of the shop as it seems very cozy inside! Next time I definitely want to come to try their coffee. :)

We got a couple of things: an Almond Croissant, Bulgogi Poutine, a Lavender London Fog with oat milk, and a Peppermint Mocha with oat milk. My Almond Croissant was okay. I know almond croissants are made with leftover pastries, but there was no texture at all. It just fell flat, and lookswise it was physically flat as well lol. It was alright. I wouldn't get the almond croissant again. The Bulgogi Poutine was pretty good. The fries were delicious and crispy. The sauce on top of the fries was slightly sweet, salty, and savory. For me, the bulgogi could've been more flavorful and it didn't taste fresh but I liked the overall dish. Lastly, the Peppermint Mocha was alright. It wasn't spectacular. And I felt the same way about my Lavender London Fog with oat milk. I wish there was more depth in my drink. I think the tea could've been steeped a little longer. Flavor was there in my drink, but it wasn't strong enough. It was slightly disappointing since I've had amazing London Fogs before, and this one just wasn't up to par. Also my drink was slightly warm, not too far off from lukewarm. I feel like the price doesn't exactly correlate with quality for most things here. If we come back here, I'd be willing to try different things and pastries. But I don't think my rating would change much.

I found the prices high but the Bennys were good. There was lots of parking and most of the waiting was in line giving our order. There were plenty of tables. I found the ambiance a bit austere to my taste. Like McDonalds without the bright colours. It had gf bread which was $2.00 Extra. .the salad was fresh and tasty. The potatoes were perfect and tasty. It was a big meal and I ate it all. I might go back but I prefer the Highlevel diner because I get better service and better prices for equally good food.

Now it is under "new" management led by a permanently sad Indian woman who never greets her customers and never smiles. This alone reduces my rating by two stars. The place is still OK (only OK), but far cry from what it used to be. BEWARE: the two washrooms are neglected, ugly, and very unpleasant to use.

It was delicious, reasonably priced (compared to Starbucks), and it was in a cute cup! The staff were super friendly. They had food options as well, but mostly café-style dishes (sandwiches, pastries, etc.). Huge place with plenty of tables to work, study, or just enjoy a cup of coffee/tea with friends. The coolest thing at this place is you're able to smell the tea canisters and bring it to the barista to steep for you. I'd come back for sure!

This is not a comfortable place to sit and chat. Server/owner (I am assuming) was friendly and helpful. Food was good The high tea is all vegatarian which was fine. My biggest complaint - and this is to all high teas the ratio of sweets to savoury is uneven. Definately need more savoury on the tray. Sandwiches were simple but tasty and not the usual ones found on the tray. Tea was lovely. I will try again for a quick bite (and i mean quick, those chairs are aweful) and try the regular menu.

It's a bit cramped but it's not bad if the tabes are not full. I managed to bag the table with the plug in but its really cold by the window in winter. Really drafty! I ordered a soup to keep warm, it was red lentil and feta which was tasty. The portion was large and it came with two warm cheese scones. The scones were worth a star alone! I wanted a vanilla latte but they don't do any flavoured coffees. The normal latte was fine but small. It came in a cute glass :) It's a nice open spot for a short meeting, or a quick coffee and catch up. But not somewhere I'd spend a few hours working... not in winter... too chilly.

New Da Capo! New Da Capo! New. Da. Capo!…read more Let's backtrack just briefly, here. I'm the Duchess of the original Da Capo. So much so that it almost makes every other Duchess-dom I hold null and void. I'm there at least a few times a week - during the day to work, and in the evening for wine and gelato with friends. I know the staff, I notice new gelato flavours, and I can give you my personal opinion on almost every pizza on the menu. The second location, recently opened along East Whyte Avenue, is sa-weet! It's got a similar feel and a ton of the same staff as the old location. Bright, white, clean, European. Gelato, Pellegrino, and a well-dressed clientele. The lattes are as good as ever. I'm still trying to figure out exactly how they share the space with Under The High Wheel, but if I never venture to the other side of the bar, I don't really care. My new favourite cafe!

Definitely a top tier dessert place. I would have gotten more if I'm not lactose intolerant.
