Local gem!! In a city that's over-saturated with pretentiously trendy, over-priced cafés and brunch spots, Cocoalatte is a delightful find with delicious, reasonably priced food, surprisingly fast and friendly service, and actually decent coffee & tea. My partner and I stopped in for a quick bfast and were really impressed. Breakfast sandwich was tasty and filling, the Avocado BLT comes with delightfully crisp bacon and a gorgeously light yet crackly bun (at first it looks like a lot of bread but it's surprisingly light and melts away to nothing). Would DEFINITELY eat here again!! read more

I don't think I could love this place more. This is mine and my partners go to stop for breakfast, brunch and lunch! Their sandwiches are just amazing. Everything is made to order and they use delicious fresh ingredients. This means that you may wait a bit for your order, but well worth it. (You also often have to wait a bit b/c they're always super busy!) Their service is great and super friendly. You will not leave hungry. Just writing this review, I want the avocado toast! For those that don't know, they have an option to order online right on their website. Especially helpful during Covid for easy curbside pick-up. I even saw some art on the walls that I loved and was able to order some prints from the artists on Etsy! read more

I got a "Too Good to Go" bag from here (recommend that app!) and it was great. Service was friendly and fast. I have gotten delivery from here as well and the drinks are great read more

CocoaLatte - the delicious Nutella Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I love CocoaLatte! What a cute little cafe! What a cute name! Drop by for a Sunday lunch/brunch on a sunny day. The restaurant is quite busy but we have no problem to find a table either inside or outside at the patio. We order the Breakfast Burrito and a Tuna Sandwich Melt with Beet soup. The ingredients they used here are nice and fresh. You can even watch them preparing in their small open kitchen area. Though the portion is smaller but I think it is perfect for a nice quick meal without overeating. At least I feel like I have a healthy meal when I eat here. The Chai Latte and Cafe Lattee where both nicely made.. The only thing I don't understand why the Chai Latte is served in a paper cup and half of that is milk foam? The waitstaffs here are all so friendly and upbeat with such positive attitude. I will definitely be back and have a coffee when I am in the area! read more

Great cafe that serves yummy baked goods, sandwiches, hot beverages and desserts. They also sell scones and granola from Baker and Scone I ordered a breakfast sandwich and it was made fresh on a warm and toasty bun. I was surprised that it the serving was so big! Definitely recommend this cafe. The staff was super friendly too! read more

Good breakfast options. Nice back patio. Waffles could have been a bit crunchier/more well done. But generally tasty and nice brunch spot. Helpful, friendly staff. Order at counter. read more

CocoaLatte - Breakfast waffle and waffle breakfast sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I got takeout from CocoaLatte, so can only speak to the food. Would definitely like to go and check out the service and ambiance of the restaurant. I saw multiple items on the menu that sounded great, and ended up ordering the Breakfast Waffle ($12) with strawberries, bananas, blueberries and a side of maple syrup. The fruit really won me over with this meal. I find that fruit is so often an afterthought at restaurants, but at CocoaLatte it was all really fresh. The blueberries especially were crisp and not at all mushy or gross. A friend ordered the Breakfast Sandwich, with two fried eggs, bacon, cheddar cheese, tomato and mayo. At $7, this is an amazing deal and was super delicious. I would probably get that next time. read more

This place was amazing, Me and my partner been wanting to try this place but never got a chance but as we did I was shocked on how good and filling the food is.

CocoaLatte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I've been here both for breakfast and lunch. They have a nice little patio out back where you can sit in the sun, and a four seater at the front of the restaurant where you can watch people walking by on St. Clair Ave. There are also some seats inside, but frankly, it's a little stuffy and loud. The service is always friendly, although it can be a bit slow. The food is delicious and fresh, just the right amount so that you're comfortably full, not stuffed and not still hungry. For the non-dairy folks, you can get lattes with soy milk. You can also get milkshakes made from their selection of gelatos, something I'm definitely going to have to try next time. Mango gelato and soy milkshake? I say yes! read more

My friend and I decided to check this place out after the cute play on words and the fact that it had the highest rating of the options in the area. On first glance, this place would appear to be out of place on this St. Clair strip, you'd place it more in the Bloor or Queen St. area of the city. But why should us "Northerners" not have a cute little cafe to go to? For a Sunday brunch, there was no line up and we were seated immediately; however, we were definitely not the only ones in there. We were greeted immediately and promptly provided menus. Very impressive and they have found very interesting things to do with Nutella. I decided on the Nutella latte, with a single shot of espresso. Very delicious! My only complaint is that you have to stir it frequently otherwise it all collects at the bottom. But when mixed, there are little flakes of hazelnut with every sip. Yummy! I ordered the veggie omelet and it had a good portion of vegetables and was cooked perfectly! The accompanying salad was delicious; however, I could make the exact same salad at home so it's nothing special. The servers are enthusiastic about the products they offer and very knowledgeable about the selection. I got a couple of baked goods to go which I look forward to trying tomorrow. All in all. I would definitely recommend this place to people who were in the area or were wanting to try somewhere different. I will also probably return next time I have a craving for a warm drink that has nutella flavoring (which thanks to CocoaLatte will probably be in the near future). Definitely worth a try. read more

OMG!!! this place is amazing!! From the moment you walk in you are overcome with the smell of Nutella and crepes!!! A great spot for a coffee/latte date, meeting, lunch or breakfast! If I lived in the area, this would be my spot!! Lolly the manager is amazing! Super friendly and positive and attentive to every detail. Alice was great too. I ordered a Nutella Latte with Almond Milk and she made an awesome one!! read more

Had an amazing brunch here. This cute cafe was pretty busy but well worth the wait. They were super sweet and made pancakes as a special order. The avocado sandwich was pretty good but messy to eat. I needed a knife and fork. The fruit used was nice and fresh and they give pure maple syrup (not the fake stuff). I was really happy with the service and we didn't mind waiting for the food as long as it was made right. You can tell they take pride in the food they make. I was also surprised to see quite a few vegetarian options for the brunch. Definitely recommend and will be going back. read more

CocoaLatte - Breakfast Tostada! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Cute little spot on St. Clair West. Would recommend this cozy cafe ideally if your party is small (say 2-4 people) just due to the small size of it. Great coffee. Delicious Nutella crepe. Friendly staff. All at reasonable prices. A nice spot to enjoy the weekend AM. Also enjoyed the art by local artists on display on the walls - many of which are for sale. read more

I met an out of town a friend here on Family Day monday so it was probably more crowded than usual. Despite my aversion for crowds I found the experience pleasant and would definitely return. My breakfast bagel was well-made and tasty; a good balance of egg, bacon, tomato and toast. I just wish it was bigger. My americano was also enjoyable but also wished it was a bit bigger. Maybe I was just especially hungry that day. A great addition to the neighbourhood. read more

It's a cute little place that seems to be frequented by new mothers mostly. I couldn't believe all the baby strollers...wow. The prices are decent for baked goods and coffee, but the food is slightly pricey, but they do have a vegan selection, so...maybe that's why. The place is a good size but as it was totally packed it seemed a bit small. The staff is nice but they could use a little more seating, just that there's no room for it! Decent place, good for a lunch or a chat with someone, but not the type of cafe you'd go to do work on your laptop or read. read more

I've been back to Cocolatte a few times now since my first review, as their sandwiches and soup are always so fresh and great tasting. Sometimes the deserts are sold out (baked goods) but that's because they are amazing! I only wish they were open later in the evenings read more

Great breakfast, I got the "tostada". Skip the chorizo, per my recommendation. Friend got the early start, came with a side salad--perfect! Awesome dressing too. Got the soup, which was roasted cauliflower. Superb. Great service, just three ladies working, very efficient and friendly. They have a tiny bit of time to chat, and I'm amazed that they can be friendly and get so much work done. The secret: they like their job, and they care about their customers. Stereo is not too loud. Oh, get a latte too; I did, great job! They don't forget anything you've ordered. read more

Good food quality and service. Prices are very reasonable, likely they can do it because portions are small. I got one piece of toast (ie. should be two) with my omelette. Charged full price for a coffee refill, there should be one free refill if you are eating an "entree". I'd go back, but just keep the above in mind. read more

I only ordered a chocolate milkshake and got what seems like slightly thick chocolate milk instead. How can you mess up a milkshake?? I was only in the area waiting for someone, so I thought I'd find a spot to have a drink and read a little but I regretted my choice pretty quickly. The place is also quite loud as there are a lot of children running around. Additionally, there seems to be no ventilation and I walked out of there with my clothes smelling like food. I don't live in the area so I most likely won't be returning but even if I did, I probably still wouldn't. There are better spots on Saint-Clair. read more

We arrived just before a huge rush but the servers were organized and very nice. We arrived not knowing what to order but when our food arrived it was delicious. The waffle sandwich was fantastic and the avocado BLT with the beet & dill soup was really good. My favourite spot on St Clair now. I will be bringing my vegan parents next time for brunch since they have some good options on the menu. read more

This place is one of my favorites!The coffee is amazing and the staff is awesome! I've been going here for years and don't go often enough lol Please try the breakfast sandwich and anything that features avocado-you will want more I'm sure. I hope the owners are there for a very long time! read more

A small rift in the lute, as P.G. Wodehouse would say. I found CocoaLatte's basic breakfast unsatisfying. Was there too little butter on the toast? Was the breakfast too small? Were the slices of chorizo simply not doing it for me? Maybe it was all those things. Nice and light, but not the experience I'm looking for on a lazy Saturday morning. I mean, there's no getting around it; the portions are small. There! I said it! The prices are still very reasonable, the food is fresh and lovely, if not overseasoned, and the service is wonderful. However, you can drop in for a sandwich midafternoon without much worry about spoiling your dinner. This is probably a good thing - big portions are unhealthy and can be downright gross. However, it does feel a bit Spartan if I show up hungry. Still a lovely place! I'm looking forward to dropping in for an afternoon snack and a cup soon. read more

Phenomenal. I've been here numerous times for food and coffee. The food is great and the coffee is always on point. The owners of this place happen to be the most down to earth people and are always engaging with each customer. This is a stclair west classic and people in the area know that this place has high quality food. Would recommend to anyone. read more

I love this place! We've come here for brunch a few times and we haven't been disappointed. The food is delicious and the service is great. They have a cute little patio outside in the back if you rather sit outside and enjoy some great weather. I highly recommend the Nutella latte if that's your type of coffee ! read more

This place has potential but is not quite doing it for me yet. This is unfortunate because their coffee and espresso are great but a few things are lacking: 1. No wifi. I get that cafes don't want to attract laptop lurkers but they could set a limit if that is their concern. Why not fill up your cafe during the day when most people are at work anyway...? 2. Flies. I took my mom there for brunch a while back and these flies just kept circling our table. Not fun when you are trying to enjoy your meal. 3. Service. Yes, the staff is friendly. They might even be overly friendly. BUT, one of the owners (I think) tries to up-sell me all the time. Crazy for a coffee shop! I just want my coffee. If I want to have a cookie or come back for dinner, I will make that decision. That is really it for negatives. They have a nice back patio for the summer and one big bright table at the front of the cafe. Never tried their gelato but apparently it is homemade so that is a plus. Thus far, CocoaLatte is just A-OK. read more

I'm writing this review from the quaint little back patio at Cocoalatte after baking in the sun all day at Salsa on St. Clair. What a gem this place is as the Bathurst and St.Clair area is lacking in breakfast/coffee shops with that cozy yet downtown feel. To drink, I'm having their signature Iced Cocoalatte which is basically an iced mocha that puts Starbucks to shame and to eat I'm having a delicious Avocado salad. It's a bit pricy but they definitely don't skimp on the avocado. The staff here is extremely friendly and accommodating. I was going to get my salad to go because I had my pug, Esther waiting outside - but they said I could bring her through to the back patio and eat with her there. Also - I love the patio! It's very tiny with 5 tables. Christmas lights for the evening and a large tree growing right in the middle. There is also the option to sit in the sun or under a shaded overhang. The sliding glass doors into the restaurant make me feel like I'm sitting in a friend's personal backyard. Very cozy. Whenever I socialize, I always spare my friends the trip all the way up here and meet them downtown, but now I finally have a reason to ask them to visit me up here for a change. I can't wait to come back for a Sunday brunch. *update* I just want to add; as I'm sitting here writing this, the very nice male server brought out a bowl of fresh water for my puppy! read more

I went to Cocoa Latte for a quick brunch by myself and greeted the counter server who was kind but suggested i grab a table myself. I waited at my table for 5-10 minutes was seen by multiple staff before i had to get up to ask someone to take my order. Although the food and drink was very good, my waitress didn't seem to care that I was there, didn't check up on me and only did the bare minimum - take my order, bring my food and take away the dishes. I've passed by Cocoa Latte hundreds of times and finally decided to try it as it appeared to be pretty popular. Needless to say, my first experience was disappointing and I will not be returning. read more

I was looking forward to trying their espresso here. Today I got their double americano, my signature drink. While various other coffee establishments price their items differently. I was disappointed. The espresso tasted weak, based on other places I have gone and it came to over 3 bucks. That, to me is quite an expensive charge on a double americano, considering too I brought my own take away mug. No discount? It would be worth checking out another time. The service is lovely and the food, from what I have read on the menu, does seem like it would be delicious; however, I have yet to try any food item. As for the vegan goodies, I know them well. After all the majority, if not all their vegan baked treats are supplied by the best vegan bakery in and around the Toronto area- Sweets from the Earth. All of their products, especially their vegan carrot cake is worth trying. They have perfected the faux "cream cheese" icing. It doesn't even taste like soy, but it is. As for Cocoalatte, I would try it another time, but to be honest. given the specialty coffee-shop status and the lack of others in the neighbourhood, it is bound to be expensive. read more

This cafe feels family run and approachable. Their crepes are tasty, delicious coffee and nice homemade soups (I've had the cauliflower soup a few times, always good). I think they also bring in their baked goods from local sources like wychwood baker. My boyfriend and I will keep coming back here! read more
