    Great coffee place at commercial! Plenty of seating for couples and singles, not that great for big groups. This place has a variety of coffee that tastes great and other drinks such as hot chocolate. As well, they also have an assortment of pastries. For the summer, they have gelatos.

    The location and business hours are great. Situated at a corner with street parking, it is a convenient place to meet friends for a drink. It also opens till late (9/10 pm) which gives them the after dinner or evening crowd. We were looking for a place to have coffee or tea, and the other coffee shops in the area close early like 5/6 pm. Besides drinks, there are pastries and gelato. We only had the coffee and it was ok. They charged extra for iced version and it was not stated in the menu. I only found out after I got the receipt. They also cannot do iced version for the regular coffee. It has to be Americano and latte etc. I had their house latte which was to have condensed milk but I couldn't really detect the condensed milk at all. It must be quite minimal in it. The reason to come here is they open till late and there is ample space to chill and have a nice chat with friends.

    While the fumes of the lacquered counter tops still lingering in the air and paint is just drying, this triplex ice cream shop / cafe and bakery is open for business. As we enter this shinny new cafe, we find it to be filled with enthusiasts. Each with a cup in hand while the other hand on laptops, some on books some on their partners. Alright place looks promising. With wet chilly spring weather, we opted for couple of hot drinks and some pastries. Pause the idea of gelato for another time. Hot cocoa, double baked hazelnut chocolate croissant and cinnamon bun. Let me tell you, they looked good and promising. Also costed a pretty penny. Definitely above average in prices. Then the quality reveal. We found definitely the pastries were at least a day old and gamey. Yup that's right, they do not have the hallmarks of freshness, flakey crispy layers and softness. I'd imagine they might have been great when they just came out of the oven. But not the case here today for us. Service was touch and go. While the cashier was polite, the barista was outright rude. Also the payment splash screen- whats with the 15%, 25% gratuity when they actually do zero service like cleaning the sticky tables or clear way dirty dishes-the 45 minutes while we were there? I know I know this place is just a baby, so they may just be reviving up?!? I am going to be gentle here and give them 2.5 stars. But I will not likely be back.

    It was busy as expected Saturday afternoon, but I was lucky to grab a table right away after I ordered. The interior is warm and not too cramped even though it's small. It looks like there is a patio that they may open during warmer months but it's closed now (January). I'm not sure if it could be called a 100% pure authentic Italian cafe but there is a bit of Italian influence in the bakery offerings, plus of course they serve gelato. The baked goods all looked so good. The food was very good. I had a salmon & cream cheese croissant sandwich, chocolate lava cake, and a masala chai latte. They were out of the salmon sandwiches in the prepared case but they made one fresh for me which was definitely better. I was expecting maybe some greens or onions or something else on the sandwich but it is really salmon and cream cheese only. I do prefer some vegetable on my sandwiches but I will not rate this on something it wasn't trying to be, and if I just judge it as smoked salmon and cream cheese on a croissant, it was perfect. The croissant was very fresh and had a buttery flavour but wasn't oily to touch. They warmed up the lava cake and it was also amazing, full-bodied but not too sweet. My chai latte was spicy and also not very sweet (which is how I prefer it). Just fyi, there was a single vegan baked good (an orange olive oil cake which looked great) and there are nondairy milks for your drinks, but I did not see anything vegan and savoury on offer. There is a "breakfast sandwich" on the menu which is not described in further detail - it COULD be vegetarian but very likely not. So do not count on a meal here if you are veg.

    My family and I, including our two elementary-aged boys, visited Rain or Shine Ice Cream recently…read more I was a little disappointed with the flavour selection this time. Maybe it's because summer is winding down, but there didn't seem to be as many fruity options, which made it harder for my boys to find something they really wanted. They ended up choosing the blueberry balsamic. They thought it was okay, but it wasn't a flavour they were particularly excited about. I personally love the honeycomb flavour! It was delicious, but I was disappointed that there weren't more pieces of honeycomb throughout the ice cream. I was hoping for a little more of that crunchy honeycomb texture. Another disappointment was the outdoor patio area. When we went outside to enjoy our ice cream, there was a noticeable garbage-like smell nearby. We couldn't figure out exactly where it was coming from, but it made the patio less enjoyable, so we ended up going back inside. Overall, we still enjoyed our family ice cream outing, but I was hoping for a little more variety in the flavours and a more pleasant outdoor seating experience.

    Rooster's Ice Cream is not your typical ice cream spot. It almost seems like it's the complete…read moreopposite to the ice cream giants in town (Earnest and Rain or Shine) on purpose; I dig it. Located in a random spot? Check. Only one staff member working? Check. We've been a couple times and I have yet to see it busy. A few people pop in but no one ever lingers. Most likely because there's no seating. There's also a sign on the counter stating you can only sample 2 flavours during peak hours. There's usually 10 to 12 flavours to choose from; always something unique and interesting. They also have sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and doughnuts on the menu. - Mango raspberry swirl and London fog ($7.00 double) - waffle cone is included and it was better than expected. The ice cream itself tastes a bit denser but still has a creamy satisfying texture. The London fog was fantastic! The mango raspberry was more mango than raspberry but also quite good. - London fog ($5.00 single) - came back on a Monday and they only had four flavours that day. We went with the London fog; just as good as the last time. - Dark chocolate and black sesame with honey ($7.00 double) - the dark chocolate tasted like a fudgesicle but better. Not too sweet and hefty; it was so heavy it almost fell off the cone! The black sesame was delicious. Not quite like the ones we had in Japan but tasty and flavourful. I'll be back again and again! Love the laid back, no frills vibe at Rooster's. One of our favourite ice cream spots!

    Very odd location and no seating unless you count place mats along the bench against the wall…read more Would be great if there were a couple tables at least outside. Ambiance resembles like a really old former laundry mat. Quality of ice cream is there. However, cookies and donuts were sold out so no sandwiches available for the ice cream. Pretty decent scoop. I am not sure if I would come back... I prefer seating with my ice cream.
