Stopped here during a weekend in Canada. Wonderful coffee! I've never been to a coffee shop that…read moredoesn't do flavorings or syrups, but that is how Oso Negro is, and it really lets you experience the amazing coffee for what it is! Also had a delicious raspberry bar that I'm still thinking about. I brought home a bag of beans and will be genuinely sad when it's gone because they are amazing.

If you like coffee that will make your hair stand on end, this may be the place to get your fix…read more If you like coffee with a more subtle flavor profile that doesn't include burnt as a tasting note, then perhaps you should search elsewhere. I fall into the latter camp and did not enjoy the coffee here. The breakfast sandwich was messy, hearty, and good. They were out of croissants by mid-to-late morning, so I had it on a cheddar scone. Lovely outdoor area with numerous cozy nooks to perch among the plants and birds, and also quite a bit of seating inside. Obviously a very popular spot amongst the locals.

It had a really robust menu with lots of reasonably priced add on options. They specialize in spatzle so I of course had to try the Vienna Scramble with sourdough toast and homemade jam. It was a big portion and super tasty. The staff were friendly and the food came out so fast! I peeked at all the other orders coming out and the eggs Bennies looked pretty tasty if that's your thing. Definitely recommend stopping in. It's well priced, big portions, lots of options and a cute atmosphere.
