We entered and found a small lounge (for first responders etc) and someone came out to show us the merchandise. We bought a few bags of coffee and shirts and got to see the production side too. Super nice people, great cause, and GREAT coffee!! We will be ordering from them in the future. It would be awesome to see them grow but keep humble as one of their shirts says. Definitely hop on their website and order some to try!!

Was greeted and informed they usually roast per order and my heart sank. They walked to the back and came back with a few bags for me to select from and I chose their signature Dark Knight that was roasted a few hours ago. Nothing fresher than that! Met the proprietor David whose passion for all things coffee was infectious as he described their history and what they provide. Their prices are very competitive and definitely cannot beat their custom roast and lineup of beans for you to choose from Definitely a must go if you are a coffee connoisseur

If you're looking for Roasted Seeds (beans) or Green Seeds, this is the "go to" place to get some! (Btw, coffee beans aren't beans, they're seeds, the seed of the coffee cherry. The flesh of the coffee cherry is removed and the seeds are "processed" into what we generally call "beans", but they're seeds!) Dark City has a wide variety of seeds, sourced thru distribution, but I think they also source them directly with the coffee plantations as well. If you want to support coffee growers more directly, then buy from here. The seeds are roasted to order! If you buy from Grocery stores, Costco, whatever, they'll all post an expiry date on their coffee. Expiry dates are stupid. Why? Well, as a person who buys Green seeds from Dark City and roasts his own coffee, I can tell you that I can tell the difference between "freshly roasted", like yesterday, and 3 week old coffee seeds. At 3 weeks, you can see that the crema isn't as visible or doesn't form as frothy and dissipates quickly. The taste is slightly less pungent (I drink espressos, black) and, like I said, I can begin to taste the difference @ 3 weeks. At 4 weeks, I can tell more and, as a rule, I try to roast enough coffee so that it lasts just over a month. That way, I can limit my roastings to 12 times a year. (Preferably, I would roast every week, but who drinks that much coffee and who has the time?) I can say much more but, be assured, at Dark City, you're getting farmer sourced seeds from Dave that better helps the farmers and you're getting expert roasters (like Kevin) who take pride in the quality of their work. Say hi to Julie when you pick up your order! I've tried finding another place like Dark City in the Metro Toronto area. I haven't found one. For parking, park across the street, that's what I do, cause they don't have enough.
