There's a couple of tables inside and a few chairs by the window. There's also a few tables outside in the front yard. We ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte with oat milk and a Chai with oat milk. For sandwiches, we ordered a Veggie Wrap with chicken and a Reuben. I was very impressed to see one guy behind the counter making food, taking orders, serving, and just handling everything going on. I was very impressed with my latte. Coffee was flavorful, sweetened perfectly, and oat milk was creamy too. Honestly, I felt like the coffee here was better than even some coffee shops in the area. Great quality coffee. We got our sandwiches and were pleasantly surprised that they were also served with fruit. We had a couple slices of oranges and watermelon, it was so cute. Our sandwiches were delicious. The Veggie Wrap was tasty, full of fresh veggies, and portion size was great too. And the Reuben was hearty, meat quality was top notch, and overall really good. We even talked to the Leonardo himself. He was very down to earth and friendly. One thing I really liked was that he was upfront about what wasn't available and always told me and other customers when he could get to them. I appreciated the honesty. That man was HUSTLING. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. We'll definitely be back and I'll recommend this place to anyone for good food, coffee, and that cozy comfortable cafe vibe.

My mom and I shared some french toast as well, and it was so yummy! It was fluffy and soft, very edible so it was gone before it went cold. The service was excellent. There was one lady serving people but it's a small place and she managed it so well it didn't even feel busy, so that was not an issue. She was super sweet by the way! She got honey for my coffee and such. Overall, its a good place to go. Not too expensive and its got a lovely, quiet family atmosphere. If I can, I will return!

The place definitely has an old school diner vibe going and that's not from clever decorating. This is an old school diner. We didn't want breakfast and I think that is their specialty so we each ordered the clubhouse sandwich. It came with soup and fries. The soup was from a can so that's not impressive. The sandwich was okay though. Service was prompt and friendly. The washrooms were clean. That's about all I can say. If you are nearby and hungry, by all means stop in. However I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to dine here.

I'm updating my review from the prepandemic version. Sadly the Dirtbag café is but a shadow of its…read moreformer self. They used to have all sorts of unique and interesting foods. Now there was just one type of a breakfast sandwich and one type of a dessert square. I think that there were some cookies too. The breakfast sandwich is small but so is the price. It was fine but not like the Dirtbag used to offer. I had drip coffee which was also fine. Unchanged is that the building is shared with the rock climbing place called Boulder. Now this is important, you can park where the signs say Boulder (climbing or rock wall?) because they are the same owners. Just make sure that you register your license plate. One other thing that is unchanged is the varied and comfortable seating. If you need a place to work with your laptop, this is a good choice. If you looking for lunch, look elsewhere. We arrived on Wednesday at a few minutes before noon so they don't seem to be catering to the lunch crowd.

Well this review is long over due!…read more I quite often come into this Caffe Sorrentino, especially for quick business meetings. They have a parking lot with lots of spots (unlike the newer Caffe Sorrentino that is about 10 blocks South of this location). The staff is always so friendly, the espresso consistently good, the pastries fresh, sweet and delightful - especially the nutella cornetto, it's a warm, gooey nutella filled croissant dusted with powdered sugar. I literally have to have one every time I go in! I also really like that this Caffe Sorrentino has a real neighbourhood feel to it, versus a busy Downtown feel. Oh, and they also have a decent amount of fresh/frozen pastas and sauces that you can take home for dinner!

Now this is a caffe, an Italian caffe! To say that the atmosphere in Sorintino's screams euro-caffe…read moreis an understatement. It hits the concept right on the head and blows me right out of the water. Though I've never been to Italy, this place reminds of some of the nice caffe I've visited in Greece. As I write this, gentlemen are at the bar sipping away on little cups of espresso and wine while conversing in foreign languages. Plenty of big comfy single chairs line the east wall that call for you to sink into to and enjoy your coffee/wine. A picture of Italy's 2006 World Cup triumph is on the wall in case you didn't know where their football loyalty lies. A single big screen TV just left of the bar allows one to view an NFL game in a relatively quiet atmosphere. The barrista speaks with an accent that definitely adds to the charm of this place. The drink options are plenty, including alcohol. The desserts all look delicious. Even the sandwich options have an Italian theme to them. Really, feeling the vibe here. I tried a large moccacino with a ricotta cream cheese cannoli. The total was just under $10, which is no doubt pricey. However, I found the moccacino excellent. This being said, the real star was the cannoli. Fluffy, yet firmly textured, and subtlety sweet it was fantastic! In addition to the food and coffee, I love how it is quiet with contemporary Italian love songs softly playing in the background. What's not to love? Consider me floored!
