De Mello is located in the well, one of the upcoming spots in the bustling downtown Toronto core , and definitely earns it's place there. It's located at the very entrance of the well which means you can grab a nice coffee and walk through, exploring the area. Seating is limited as it's connected to the residential building lobby, but you can easily take your drink down to the food court downstairs and pair it with a meal. I got the iced nomnom and it was so flavourful and sweet! I'm a big fan of Vietnamese coffee , and enjoyed this but was a little disappointed when I realised it's just a sachet and probably should've got an espresso based drink. I did end up taking the drink outside even though I planned to sit in as the inner space was freezing with the AC on full blast. Will probably get something warm next time, and the pastries looked really good!
I loved this cafe! It's right by the Well, so the location is really nice. I got the matcha latte and it was so smooth! It's probably one of the better matcha drinks I've ever had The service was also quick and efficient. The employees were really kind and helped me choose a nice pastry to pair with my drink.
I wish there were more tables but luckily when I went there was enough seating. I ordered the Matcha Kumo which is a fixed size and iced. This is a sakura matcha and it's really good not too sweet and lightly fragrant. The matcha foam itself is not sweet though so make sure to mix the drink if you're ordering it. The pastries looked so yummy, I'd definitely wanna try it one day.
Ordered the matcha kumo which included Sakura syrup. It looked very aesthetic! On the pricier side for matcha though. It was good matcha but definitely a treat at its price point. There is seating available on multiple levels if looking for a spot to read or chat with your coffee.
Is there anything more Toronto than an $8 coffee in a trendy lobby? $16 for two drinks is comical, but I guess that's the price we pay for living here - no point complaining, right? (I complain about it daily) To be honest, the drinks were really good! The Iced Nomnom (love the name, btw) had a smoky flavour that kept me coming back for more, and the pink matcha was deliciously green and pink, as advertised. Maybe I'll go back when I get my tax return again next year.
De mello I get your hype! You deserve it all that's why so many cafes use your coffee beans! I got to try the Blueberry Latte and it was super good. Unfortunately not milk substitute as the milk is extracted with blueberry. Very simple, unique, and delicious. Service was fast and very friendly. I asked one of the employees Kathy for a recommendations. ^_^ The black sesame scone was nice as well. It's conveniently inside a condo building but accessible to the public with a few seats very easy to get to. Love the bright concept with natural lighting.
I come here pretty frequently for coffee and their pastries. I love their coffee, and I typically get iced lattes or iced Americano. I've also had their chocolate croissants - the flavour and texture is perfect and it's been fresh when I go in the morning. You can purchase coffee beans, or breakfast items here too. There is some seating in the lobby. Baristas are friendly and I like their r&b oldie playlist.
I came here after brunch on the weekend with some friends. We selected this establishment because of its high Yelp rating and it was close to where we were. Its operation is similar to Starbucks, stationed at an office building within the well. It does not have he's own stand alone unit, nor do I recall there being (much) seating. Expect a line up evening on the weekends! The one good thing is that the line moves fairly quick and usually doesn't go out the door. I ordered their matcha latte, and it was a little bitter at 50% sugar. I am not much of a coffee drinker but I was looking for a warm drink. Note: Soy milk replacement is an additional $1
Solid coffee. Solid customer service and team. The space itself is beautiful. So modern and plenty of space in and out of this cafe. Really truly love this spot. The bathrooms are amazing by the way.
Was really looking forward to trying this place out based on such good reviews... But, unless you want your coffee with a side of BUG don't come here. Was sipping on my blueberry latte when I saw a little speck... turns out a fly was in my drink. Overall, this coffee shop isn't much. It's not very aesthetically pleasing, the seating area and overall vibe is bland. Wouldn't recommend this place, go somewhere else.
Go to on my way to work. Fast service and while it gets busy it moves fast! Their pastries are always so great -- the muffins, croissants, and danishes are all so perfect with their coffee. It's a lobby location but if you go up the stairs there's plenty of quiet seating and free wifi from The Well to sit with a laptop and look out onto front and Spadina!
I was looking for a fun coffee to try over the weekend and saw the blueberry latte. Unfortunately, that drink only comes cold so the barista offered the orange vienna that's served hot. She explained it's an americano with an orange flavoured foam. I wasn't sure if I'll love it but was open to give it a try. To my surprise, it was a very delicious hot coffee with a cold orange foam on top. The orange flavour was not overpowering also. I definitely recommend this drink and will order again.
I got the famous iced blueberry latte and I now understand the hype. Who knew blueberry and coffee would pair so well together... but it just does. It's the perfect amount of sweetness and milky/creaminess. The perfect ratio of blueberry flavour and coffee flavour. It's kind of expensive for a latte ($6.50), but even then I think it's worth it and I'd easily splurge on it again. Now, the Strawberry Lolli Roll was also a pleasant surprise! I was kind of expecting it to be overly sweet and artificial... but it was very delicious. The right amount of sweetness. The strawberry cream filling is light. The pastry/croissant itself is flaky, buttery, and airy - a tad savoury. It is also kind of pricey ($8), but I'd totally get it again on a "treat yoself" day. Definitely recommend ordering these items.

Well known coffee shop in Toronto that my friend recomended me. Very cute lion mascot and shop. There were a few table seatings. They have lots of cute merch and individual coffee bean bags for sale. They also offered to grind them for me after purchasing. I got the Matcha Kumo which was delicious and not too sweet and a single shot of espresso. Service was fast and staff was welcoming. A solid cute coffee place. read more
If you want a good cup of coffee, De Mello is the place to get one at The Well. Tucked in the lobby of 8 Spadina Rd, it has limited seating and the ambient noise could be loud when busy. Service can also be slow during busy time when everyone else wants a coffee. Still a great place to get your daily caffeine fix. read more

Got the Hojicha and my friend got their hot chocolate. Drinks are not too bad but I tasted the milk more than the Hojicha itself. The hot chocolate was just okay as well. Drinks were made fairly quickly but they do get pretty busy. I would try the coffee next time I'm around the area. read more

I got a cappuccino and a chocolate croissant to go from De Mello. Both items were good and tasted similar to the same items at other coffee shops that carried products around the same price range, so I wasn't extremely impressed nor disappointed. I was in a bit of a rush and forgot to ask if I could get my chocolate croissant warmed up - I think that would have made it better. My colleague got the iced blueberry matcha and said it was spectacular, so I'd have to give that a try the next time I'm at De Mello. read more

This new De Mello Coffee location is a lobby kiosk located inside the office tower side of The Well, by Spadina and Front. The interior looks minimalist and sleek, with some seating on the main level, and a large table for groups if you want to get some collaborative work done upstairs. The staff were friendly, and despite the long line when I visited, it moved quicky, and I got my order within a reasonable amount of time. I'm not a coffee drinker, and therefore cannot comment on their coffees, but I did order a tea latte here, which I thought was well made (good temperature, the tea was steeped long enough for me to taste it, and it had the right amount of milk and sugar). A key thing that gave them extra brownie points from me is that they serve Sloane tea, which very few coffee shops offer, plus I love the tiger design on their cups. read more

Coffee is really really great, the light roast specifically is brewed really well. No outlets on the first floor meaning seating with outlets is limited, but not necessarily a detractor. Service was also good. Like a 9.3/10 overall read more
In the Well. Super aesthetic. Got the blueberry iced latte and it was tasty. I'm more of a tea drinker so it didn't have as much blueberry flavour as I expected, but still good. Staff is always friendly. It's a bit expensive, but their coffee is in the higher tiers. Tables and chairs to sit and work too. Could even hold a casual meeting or group study session on the second floor. read more

The drinks were of high quality and the customer service was stellar. The iced blueberry latte was amazing as it had enough blueberry flavour balanced well with milk & their blend of espresso. Plenty of seating to enjoy the drinks as well. The well is a beautiful space & all the seating is indoors, perfect way to spend a weekend morning. read more

This is a cool little coffee shop in The Well. There is a good amount of seating and the place is airy with high ceilings and a unique aesthetic. The drinks are a bit on the pricier side but pretty good overall. read more
De Mello is inside the well nested in the main floor of the office building. The vibe is great, open, but quiet and peaceful. The service was quick and kind. A great place to grab a coffee and a table or go upstairs and sit at one of the communal tables. Great coffee, not too acidic. We tried the lolli-roll it was truly incredible. It's a round croissant filled, and I mean FILLED, with delicious cream. Not too sweet at all. I'm definitely coming here again and I'm happy I've found my new local coffee shop read more
This is a newly opened coffee shop inside Well buildings. It is inside the building lobby with some seating space. We ordered for Americano, Vanilla Latte and a Scone. The service was quite and the coffee was really good. I would definitely recommended trying scone or other bakery items as well. read more
Great place! Even though it's in a building the ambiance is still ok. The coffee was good, I had an Ethiopian bean as an Americano. Good but could have been better. Prices are a bit high however you are in Toronto and rent is high. Service was good and came with a smile and friendly. read more

It's more like a takeaway coffee shop, but there are a few seats if you prefer to stay and enjoy the coffee. We had latte and cortado. Pretty good, I'd say the best at The Well; but I've had really impressive one before. Service was good even though they were so busy on the day we visited. read more

A brand new coffee shop located in the lobby of the Well at Spadina and Front. They do have seating along the window. I got a medium Matcha latte. Great latte art work, great coffee. The service was kind and friendly. Will come back again. read more
