This review is for the NEW SECOND LOCATION on Jarvis St. (North of King, on the east side). I was…read moreincredibly excited to hear this location opened as I was a huge fan and a regular at the Shuter St location when I worked in the area. This second location is only a couple of weeks old and I already like the vibe. There are long tables and a bench - I love the possibility of conversations when people sit at shared long tables!! The walls are still bare, and I suspect it's just a matter of time for some inspired art to show up. About the main event, coffee, the same focus on excellence followed to the second location. Come here for great coffee and excellent service! Shawn mentioned that they will be a rotation of cookies that are baked onsite - I am excited to come back to see that. Oh yeah, I mustn't forget that this location faces the gorgeous St. James park and cathedral. See photos.

They also have coffee gear as well as a small pantry of items for purchase as well. I've been to Ezra's Pound several times throughout the years where I've found that their coffee is consistently good. I recently stopped by Ezra's Pound again to grab a coffee. Service was friendly and I had my cortado there. The space is casual and chill with their black and white tiled floors and wooden tables. I ordered at the counter and was tempted to grab a pastry but decided against it. I also noticed that they had sandwiches you can purchase as well for lunch. After ordering at the counter staff were nice enough to bring my drink to me. My cortado was made well with latte art as well. Overall, a great neighbourhood spot for coffee, tea, pastries, or lunch. The cool casual interior make you want to stay and enjoy the vibes of the space. Definitely do check this coffee shop out for great coffee if you are around the area!

It's summertime so I tried Coconut Island. It's Cold brew coffee with some coconut cream on top and…read morea sprinkle of coconut flakes. I enjoyed it, not too sweet and it tasted coconutnutty! Here is a hint always ask for light ice they still give you plenty of ice, even if the cold brew comes out cold. Otherwise you get a cup full of ice. De Mello coffee is expensivei. However, in the scheme of things it is a good value because the coffee beans they use have a good solid caffeine kick and it tastes good! (My overall favorite place is still across the street a couple blocks North at Himalayan coffee. It's folksy, a lot less expensive and I always feel happy there, especially after I get a cute latte art on my drink.). The Coconut island cost $8.50 plus tax or $9.60! De Mello Coffee is creative marketing their coffee beans. They have crazy names by cotton candy, lolipop, birthday cake, dead, man, walking, etc. however, a small bag of beans is super super expensive. But their marketing makes you wanna try it and then afterwards you're like oh I guess I taste something but it's still not worth the cost. I'm sorry if this review leaves you puzzled to go or not. It's worth trying. The baked goods look amazing and as long as you get one that is moist, are excellent. Well, I return? Yes.

One of the few spots in Toronto where you can find a real cappuccino like you'd get in Europe…read more Perfectly balanced, with the right ratio of espresso to milk and that silky foam on top -- not the oversized, watered-down versions you get elsewhere. It's become my weekend ritual to stop by here, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is lively, the pastries look amazing, and the quality of the coffee keeps me coming back. Definitely a place I'd recommend to anyone looking for an authentic cappuccino experience in the city.

This neighbourhood cafe has so much potential. Great space and location. However, my visit here was…read morepretty disappointing. I had a London Fog, they use Sloane tea ("heavenly cream" flavour, a classic) but they fill the cup half way with hot water and then just add a bit of steamed milk and vanilla syrup. I thought that was so weird, as it should be just the tea bag, steamed milk, and vanilla syrup. It tasted watered down. I also had a croissant and it was so bad, it was almost inedible. Judging by the way they were stacked up like sardines in the display case, I think they are bought from somewhere else and certainly not made in house. It was too dry and lacking the inner chewiness, yet also not flaky or crips on the outside. Instead it was kinda stale. It looked like those ones that come in big boxes at grocery store. Very disappointing. The only good thing is that their street side patio is really nice in the summer. There are ample muskoka chairs with side tables and a bowl of clean water for the dogs. On a weekend morning, there are lots of regulars here and people are very friendly. However, for quality espresso drinks and fresh baked goods, Supernova Coffee up the street is significantly better (and also has a cute patio area).
