This place has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. One of their lemonade bottles…read moreexploded on my counter in a million pieces like a bomb and the owner did nothing, barely even apologized. She actually made this frightening experience much worse with her terrible attitude. The bottle nearly blew up in my daughters face and could have been very serious if not deadly. I acknowledge it was left out and not in fridge for 2 days as label didn't say "must be refrigerated"... but does that mean it should explode like a Molotov cocktail? I will never shop here again and many people I have shared this story with have agreed.

****UPDATE The owners are extremely understanding and…read moreaccommodating, and it is very evident that they care a lot about their customers. They contacted me a day after to explain the situation, and have even taken steps to remove the Big Veg off the menu based on my suggestions/comments. The owners are two very heartful and dedicated women. It's wonderful to see such passion and care! ***END UPDATE Came here today for lunch with a friend! I ordered the Big Veg (a bunch of vegetables wrapped in collard greens) with their nutty bacon, and a side of sipping broth. My friend got their Seed to Sausage on beet bread, also with a side of sipping broth. The service there is very friendly, and it's a very hip and cool place! I love the concept, and it gives off a great vibe. However, my first experience was less than ideal... The Big Veg cost me $9, and with the sipping broth ($3), the total should have been $12. For some reason, they charged me $15, and so I asked for them to correct it. The correction took a while, but eventually they gave me back in cash. However, the cashier mistakenly gave me less than the amount owed, and overall, the entire refund process was quite slow. That being said, they were very apologetic and kind through it all, so the service was pretty good! My Big Veg fell short of expectations. First off, I must note that it is a take-out place. Although they had warned me beforehand to eat my wrap as a gyro (as the collard green is fragile and cannot sustain the content's weight), by the time I had arrived at my sit-down destination, the paper bag was soaked through. The sauce and dressing had leaked everywhere! It was a very messy eat, and despite being very careful, the sauce just kept dripping down my arms and in front of me. I would highly suggest that they reinforce the packaging for stronger protection (i.e., a double wrap). The wrap itself also lacked flavour, though that may have been in part due to my decision to get the nutty bacon (which was essentially just hemp, fried walnuts, with some smokey flavour). Maybe try the cheese or the actual bacon for more taste. The bone broth, though interesting, could have used more depth and flavour. Given my experiences, I would have given two stars - however, I had a bite of my friend's Seed to Sausage sandwich and it was quite tasty! I think it really depends on what menu item you ordered. Hers had the delicious smokey taste of the sausage, and was very clean and aesthetic!

I decided to visit the closest Starbucks drive-thru in London. This one was it!…read more The drive-thru is fairly busy. The baristas are friendly. I visited the place for two consecutive days. Both baristas advised that the debit machine was down, but all other payments were fine. That's perfect for me, as I tend to pay using my Starbucks card. Both times, I ordered a grande iced coffee with soy. I am not a big coffee drinker. However, this beverage was so good. A police car was parked in front of the store. It must be good to tear the police away from a Timmy's! (203)

You can tell everything is made in-house, which is impressive given their wide range of offerings:…read morequiches, sandwiches, cookies, muffins; they have it all. The ingredients are high quality, and the flavours are thoughtfully developed. Pink lemonades are often too sweet, but this one was perfectly balanced. The lemon square was nicely tart, the quiche had generous chunks of feta, and the muffin had that rich, buttery flavour you only get from homemade baked goods. Service was bubbly and helpful, and the interior was quaint. There's just enough seating outside, with a setup that lets you choose between sun or shade. Special mention for offering the London Fog iced; my first time trying it, and it is now my new go-to. Prices were surprisingly reasonable considering the quality. Easily the best coffee shop I've tried in London so far.

It is a bright and spacious coffee house, obviously very popular with the Western University students. They also have sandwiches, which I did not try, but they have a good selection. B served me, and she was friendly and efficient. They make their own doughnuts and loaves. I got an apple doughnut. It was filled with apple filling, some cinnamon icing on top, and it was fresh and not heavy. As a tourist, I appreciated not feeling rushed. A very pleasant place to have a coffee and pastry, even if you're not a student.

I think the coffee itself could use some improvements though. Food: My friend had the avo brioche and said it was the most bland sandwich she's ever had. I had a good experience with the ham and cheese brioche though. So if you're deciding between the two, definitely go for the ham and cheese because it has a great basil sauce. Drinks: drip coffee- wasn't really anything special, just tasted like black coffee with no specific notes. ginger latte- a little too spicy, I was expecting it to be infused with ginger taste within the drink, but it seemed to just be the spiciness of the ginger with none of the sweet. pumpkin foam (iced)- this was my favorite of the 3! A good amount of sweetness, enjoyable, I would order this again. I would come back to try their other seasonal drinks. I think that's where they shine. Overall, nothing really blew my mind for the price, but I might come here to get some work done.
