Heard a lot about Cotti Coffee because they've opened a number of stores in the GTA recently, so I was curious to check it out. Overall, my rating is based on the taste of the drinks I purchased, my opinion on the menu, this particular store's service.
I tried their Iced Americano with regular milk and their iced toffee hazelnut latte. Unfortunately, I couldn't taste much of the coffee in either one - not sure if the espresso was really mild, or if it was too watered down by the drink ingredients. The flavours didn't stand out, and while the drinks on the menu looked interesting, there wasn't anything that really caught my eye (sparkling flavoured drinks + espresso didn't appeal to me). This could be personal preference, as I don't always like unique flavour combos with coffee drinks. I also didn't realize many of their popular drinks used coconut milk, which I'm not a fan of :(
The staff were quite busy, so the only way to order was via a single touchscreen kiosk (unless you ordered through an app). For my first visit, I would've appreciated being able to ask about their drinks because maybe I would've liked some of their other items more! read more
