This is a perfect spot for dessert! There was no queue on a Thursday night, service was great. We entered and got immediately seated and served with a glass of water. The menu is quite extensive, since every dessert looks great, it's hard to pick one. We had the same delicious Dubai chocolate crepe, it was so yummy! The portion is always generous and two of us were unable to finish one dessert. I love this place and will visit again. read more

Decided to give this place a visit for a nostalgic dessert hang after years. Everything is pretty much the same in terms of vibes, service, and portions. Their menu has remained the same, but this time around I noticed a few trendy items which was fun. They also have 4 different kinds of waffles to choose from too -- from Belgian, liege, and croffle. I ordered their new ube flavour (not sure if this is a limited time offering) croffle. I was so glad I got the croffle because I really enjoyed the chewy texture. I tried my friend's liege and it was really heavy and had a bit more of a savoury taste. The ice cream scoops they give are also huge. The price is slightly higher, I guess it's the inflation after all these years... after tax and tip the one waffle cost me almost $30 which to me is insane for dessert. Overall their stuff still hits the spot.. very fun selection of flavours and a cute vibe for a dessert hangout. We came shortly after a pretty big dinner which was our first mistake. Make sure to come hungry because their waffles are huge and filling. read more

It's been ages since I came back here. The service was great; we were always asked if everything was good or if we needed anything. I have to say, no matter what time, this place is busy and crowded with people. Good thing we were able to be seated. We ordered two different desserts to try. I must say that both desserts were delicious, but the Ube one was much better. The matcha one with the white chocolate sauce made it a bit too sweet, in my opinion. You have to try it for yourself to see, as everyone's taste buds are different. Also, even though it was crowded with people, it wasn't loud, and we were able to talk amongst ourselves. Even when I had my baby there, the noise level was decent. read more

Here's the thing - I am never too sure about Demetres. The downtown Markham location probably has the most breathtaking interior designs of all the desert stores, but I find the food underwhelming and way too overpriced. Also, they don't serve espresso drinks on ice. I asked for an iced latte, but apparently it only comes as a hot beverage, which was very bizarre (especially since they do serve their special iced coffee drink, which costs 11 dollars, if I remember correctly). I suspect that the drinks were premade and they don't have an espresso machine? But that doesnt add up since they do have affogato on the menu... The waffle is a bit too soggy and lacks flavour (it is priced at like 21 dollars I think). I only give it three stars for its decor. read more

The desserts here are delicious! We had the waffle dessert as well as a crepe and both were a great sweet treat! The interiors have very fun and colorful designs and are brightly lit. Service was very friendly and prompt. read more

Always a great time to be at demetres! We went after watching a movie with two other people. On the outside, they had a lot of empty tables but when we arrived, there was a long long waiting. Not sure exactly why? We waited probably about 20 minutes and when we got inside, there were still empty tables so not sure what was happening there. Decor was alright, there's an open kitchen and you can see the staff making your waffles and crepes right there. We ordered the fudge waffle and it did not disappoint - fudgey, gooey and paired perfectly well with the warm waffle. It was a great complement to the salty and buttery popcorn we had had during the movie. read more

the service is okay and we didnt have to wait long probably because we went there @ 10pm. Since it's fairly new, the place looks neat and clean. But let's talk about the desserts... $22.5 for Belgian waffle $17.5 for Parfait Was the price justifiable? Hmm... no, i dont think so. I dont think a $56 bill is justifiable with risking my sugar levels in this cafe. Will I go back again? If im a teen and dont care about i eat and how much money I spend, probably yes but now that I know better, No. Just a true and honest review for this chain. read more

Opened late night and as we were debating which dessert place to go, so glad to have stumbled upon Demetres! We saw it full of people at 10:30pm and knew we had to try especially when we saw "best ice cream ever" We got the crepe w/ banana and Dulce ice cream! LIFECHANGING Their menu was extremely cute and had so many different flavors! Not ordering the whole menu was difficult. Must try if you're in downtown Markham! read more

Demetres is definitely a very delicious dessert spot, but we've noticed that the prices have increased quite drastically over the years. With that being said, the crepes are still VERY delicious, especially with the homemade ice cream. We ordered the Apple Pom crepe to share, and it satisfied our sweet tooth craving. It was very busy and chaotic inside when we went (around 10pm on a weekday night), and only one server was on the floor, so service was a bit slow in terms of placing our orders and getting the bill. However, the space inside is huge and can definitely fit lots of people, and is also very family friendly. read more

The desserts are SERIOUSLY SO SWEET. Neither my friend nor I could finish what we ordered because the sweetness became a little intolerable. I can see how that can appealing for some people though! The ice cream was very creamy and rich. The brownie was pure sugar though. I'll likely come back in the future when I am craving something very sweet! read more

The best part of fall? Cozying up with something sweet and indulgent! Demotes Fall Menu is something I tried and it's packed with warm, comforting flavors that capture the essence of the season. Every seasonal menu is designed by local Toronto artists !!! My favorite was their Fashionably Latte Belgian Waffle with hazelnuts. I love their ice creams and Thats why I went here. So, if you were to boy pint ice creams, try their ice creams from stores as well :). ! Location: Demetres They have multiple locations as well in Toronto to try :) ... read more

One of the best dessert spots in the GTA. The waffles are to die for, I had the moo lala. The server was kind and prompt, they were busier and so it did take a bit of time for us to receive the food, but my friend and I were chatting so the timing of everything was great. Presentation was on point, very instagram worthy. The quality of the dessert as mentioned was excellent, probably my go to dessert spot in the GTA. read more

We frequently dine at this location, but tonight we decided to order from Uber Eats for the first time. We tried the Splitsonian French crepe, and unfortunately, it didn't meet expectations. The banana was unripe and very bitter, which was disappointing since the menu only offered two fruit options: banana and strawberries. How could they serve unripe fruit? There wasn't enough Nutella to balance out the bitterness, and I didn't enjoy it at all. I called Demetres to express my concern, and the response was less than helpful. The staff apologized, and after waiting for any further assistance, I was told they would inform the kitchen staff and advised me to contact Uber directly about my dissatisfaction. The call ended abruptly without any meaningful resolution. read more

They say a good salesman can sell ice to an eskimo. In this case, sell ice cream to Canadians while it's freezing and snowing outside. This place is a favorite everytime we visit this area.

Not meter parking in the parking area Ambience - clean, colourful, great atmosphere Service - only one person working for everything on a Thursday I went with my family but the service was still great.

This dessert shop is the best I have had so far in Toronto. Their desserts are particularly impressive, especially their ice cream, which is not overly sweet. The combination with the waffles is incredibly delicious. The prices are reasonable, and I highly recommend it. 呢間甜品店係我so far喺多倫多食過最好食嘅甜品，特別係佢啲雪糕非常出色，唔會話去到太甜，配搭埋啲窩夫超級好食。價錢唔算貴，高度推薦。 read more

Came here for dessert and was honestly pretty unimpressed. Tried the tounge depressor belgian waffle and found it pretty expensive ($22). The portion is pretty big and it's very sweet- the chocolate was good! But overall wasn't very inspiring. Dish was pricey but not particularly special or niche or unique. The place was also not very clean and there seemed to be glitter (?) on some of the seats. The service wasn't great and it was hard to get their attention and servers didn't seem super experienced...Everything was sort of lacking and just can't justify dropping 22+tax+tip on such a mediocre experience when's there's a lot of other dessert choices in Markham. Can't see myself coming back read more

Came here to grab some dessert to take home to enjoy with my nieces since we had a slumber party ( yes, I'm that kind of fun aunt). My nieces has never been exposed to demetres before, so I was excited to let them have a little taste of heaven. Got inside and it wasn't too busy, told the host we wanted to order for takeout and she handed us a menu and seated us close by to the cash/cook area as we looked at the menu to see what amazing desserts they had to offer. We ordered splitsonian (with crepe), sweetcar name devour (with liege waffle) and blush French crepe they all come with icecream on the side when you order take out. Order was ready within 15 minutes. By the time we left, it started getting really busy. Got home, and the girls ripped open the bag and devoured everything! mr. Tran and I shared the splitsonian and we had no complaints. Had a piece of the liege waffle to try and it was pretty good, it's more dense and chewier, not like the classic waffle. Prices are a little steep, but def nice to have once in a while. read more

The new summer menu is very refreshing! The tartness of the ice cream brings a really nice balance to the desserts. The crepe was super creamy and paired so well with the strawberry ice cream and toppings. The croissant was a bit denser than I had imagined and not as flaky, but the ice cream really saved the day. We also had the parfait accompli, which was perfect for my chocolate cravings. Although slightly too decadent, it was a great treat to bring home and savour over the next day! The waffle could have been a bit crispier and was slightly eggy though. Service was unfortunately really inattentive and oblivious. read more

We came here for dessert after dinner. The place appeared understaffed, and we had to ask to be seated. It took several minutes until we were acknowledged. The menu is pretty extensive with lots of offerings. I enjoyed the Severus (Belgian chocolate) milkshake and was probably one of the best chocolate milkshakes I've ever had. Unfortunately our orders came out staggered. I could see my kids' ice cream on the service counter melting while waiting to be picked up and served to us. I told the waitress but she seemed stressed out having to attend to the other customers. My wife's order was messed up and we had to reorder. Again we saw the ice cream on the counter waiting a while before being picked up. All the flavors were excellent with amazing presentation but the poor service was disappointing read more

I got the Pomme Pilot and it was amazing the amount apple to waffle ratio was the same. The only downfall is the ice cream melted so fast that it makes the waffle soggy fast. Otherwise I would recommend trying. On a Tuesday night it was quiet and the service was quite slow. We asked for the bill and it took a while before it came. read more

I ordered "the last straw french crepe". I was surprised about the amount of fresh strawberries I got which was a good thing. The vanilla ice cream was rich and the portion was plenty. The crepe came out hot and went well with the toppings. The food and decor at this location was super cute. I visited earlier in the day, the service was friendly and attentive. The food came out faster than I anticipated. I am looking forward to visiting with friends again, we agreed it's a good location for celebrations too. read more

We ordered the Splitsonian on a Belgian waffle and it was so satisfying. I was hesitant at first because I don't really like ordering vanilla ice cream at ice cream stores, but it was rich, creamy and definitely better quality ice cream than some other places. The menu changes frequently, as there were some spring items, so it would be nice to see what they have next season! The decor is super cute, as always at this location. However the price was pretty steep for a waffle so I took off 1 star. It came up to $25.71 before tip. read more

Visited Demetres on a Monday early evening with family. We love the atmosphere at Demestres, perfect for a date night or catching up with friends. The restaurant has lovely decors, blooming flowers all over the wall. Service was quick, we were seated and offered water right away. We ordered Tongue Depressor to share. It has a cherry next to it so you know it's a signature flavour. Instead of white chocolate buttons, we opted for strawberries to balance out the rich chocolate flavour. Our waffle arrived within ten minutes and the presentation is gorgeous! We've been here a few times and always enjoyed the waffle and crepes. We change up which one we order depending on the flavour and texture that we crave for the evening. The dessert tastes as delicious as it looks!!! We enjoy dipping the strawberries in the chocolate sauce. The portion is huge and perfect for sharing. I like how the waffle is not overly sweet, and the warmness contrasts well with the cold ice cream. Will definitely be coming back again soon :) read more

Upon entering, first impressions were definitely everything! The decor is absolutely stunning - from the architectural arrangements, to the bold flower wallpaper, to the matching pastel furniture. Such an Instagram-worthy spot, minus the old school carpet which was a little out of place. Since the menu is the same across all locations with the same prices, you might as well pay this location a visit for the ambience. Service wasn't anything to rave about but was quite good. We were seated with menus and water and given ample time to review the menu before ordering so there was no rushing. Everything also came out correctly as ordered, with the beautiful plating as you'd expect for this price point and came out in a timely manner. As always, portions were huge and perfect for sharing. Taste-wise, things were spot on as well. Place was overall kept clean, no complaints there. Some tables could have been better distanced in my opinion; but I did like the area we were seated which was all the way in the back, half booth and half chairs. They did check vaccination records and IDs upon entry with a reminder to keep masks on whenever leaving the table. read more

I am a regular customer of Demetres Downtown Markham. I would always bring relatives, friends and out-of-country visitors to share the sweet. Although I live in Richmond Hill, I don't mind driving the extra Km's to this location. One reason was due to its fine renovation, high ceiling, comfortable seating and open concept. The more important reason was due to the attentiveness, efficiency and friendliness of its staff. I must explicitly mention the hard work and professionalism of Kingsley. I was delighted to have him serving my table again on 2025/11/26. I thought he was not working here any more (having not seen him in multiple prior visits). On top of the regular order, I bought many gift cards of various amounts this time. Kingsley was able to quickly fill our dine-in order. While we were enjoying the sweet, he quickly completed my order of gift cards. He patiently waited till we finished eating before presenting the gift cards. Every single card was carefully labelled with its amount. He then explained the specific details, terms and conditions. Thanks! I was fully satisfied, contrary to a prior experience in another Demetres where the associate ended up making multiple calls, manipulating the computer and giving me a pile of (mixed up) gift cards after at least half an hour, leaving me the suspicion whether the actual and proper amounts were programmed into the cards. I also remembered another occasion that Kingsley was the only staff working on a very busy March-break afternoon (poor management arrangement indeed!). He was working fast with high precision: greeting customers, taking orders, filling orders, processing payments, cleaning tables, etc., as if there were four people working there. Not until an hour or so later, more staff finally came in, but Kingsley continued to work as hard, outpacing the others, in my opinion. Cross table discussions among customers (i.e. strangers unknown to one another) admired his ability. Kingsley should definitely be given the opportunity to undertake higher roles and more responsibilities. read more

I went for desserts after watching movies across the street. On a weekend night, it was super busy and would definitely recommend joining the waitlist online prior to arrival. After around a 30 min wait, we were seated - the interior is quite spacious. We got the Pomme Pilot waffle and The Last Straw waffle. The Pomme Pilot was a classic mix of apple and ice cream, on top of a waffle. The waffle was light and crispy, though I wish there was a bit more of the cinnamon and caramel flavour. While our server explained the situation to us, the dishes did take a bit long to arrive and asking for the bill involved multiple attempts as it was forgotten. The prices are a bit steep as well so this is not a place I would frequent often for desserts. read more

I visit Demetres and ordered the Moo La La Belgian Waffle. It was delicious and the serving size was huge. It took two people to share to finish.

I would visit this location again. read more

We were seated and forgotten. Three families came after us and were served before us. read more

Came here for dessert with a friend for a Friday night because it's open late (12AM)! I've known this franchise to be catered toward those with a sweet tooth. The menu had SO many options but essentially you can customize your order to switch out ice cream flavours or syrups, which I love. I arrived at 8pm and was seated right away since the place wasn't busy. Staff were quick to bring water and menus, and gave us a few minutes to decide what to order. They were kind enough to bring us to one of the best seats in the house, a booth area by the back wall's floral mural. Utensils were already set up at the tables. My friend customized their order by switching out the ice cream flavour and asking for the syrup on the side. Both our orders came within 20 minutes with generous portions! The cheesecake was more of a soft light cream cheese filling, rather than a dense cheesecake. We did not feel a need to top up on any syrup for the cheesecake as it was already very sweet. The liège waffle was a nice flaky texture and perfectly topped off with a HEAP of warm cinnamon apples. If you don't have a strong sweet tooth, I recommend getting the butter caramel sauce on the side to add as needed. The white chocolate silk ice cream was smooth and decadent. Recommend you go hungry, otherwise you may not finish your order. We ordered coffee after finishing most of our desserts (around 10pm). Standard hot caffeinated drinks, not too strong. Our server kindly notified us that their shift was ending and we asked for the bill. We were advised that we could stay seated at the booth after paying. Since there was no one waiting for tables so we stayed until 11pm, but the place was filled by then since it is one of the places that's open the latest in the area. read more

We were scouting for dessert place after dinner and we stumbled onto this place. Demetres brand brings back a lot of memories during high school/university time. So we parked and walked right in, this Demetres is very well lit and clean. So far so good. We sat down and ordered something quick, as we were both hungry. So the choice is obvious, go with waffle :) Not long after our dessert arrived and this thing is huge! We devoured this thing quickly. Brings back good memories, but I believe both of us agreed that we are pass this stage. read more

We were quickly seated at a table with the menu, but we waited for a long time before the server came by to take our order. We did not get cups of water until a long time afterward, maybe because it was quite busy in the restaurant.

The dessert tasted very good, especially when the crepe was warm, and the ice cream was cold. read more

It's our first time to visit demetres. There were so many choices so we asked the waiter for his recommendations. As we don't like desserts which are too sweet, he recommended splitsonian waffle with mango ice-cream for us. It is definitely the best recommendation- the waffle looked so pretty and colourful with a balance of sweet and sour. The chocolate had a nutty and rich flavour, making the waffle and fruit tasted sooo good! And the mango ice cream was natural with no added sugar, so we can taste the real mango flavour! Also the environment was so great. We visited on weekday evening so it was a bit quiet. We can enjoy our dessert time. Price was a little bit high good for dating. Will definitely visit again! read more
