Made with their feature espresso, their head of coffee 100% knows how to handle his coffee. It was fragrant with a kick that you can catch just under the milk. I would highly recommend trying them out if you're in the area. Bonus: try their assortment of mac and cheeses!

If you're looking for a variety of unique flavours in good pies and good service, the only hole you should be going into...is The Pie Hole! === 2. FOOD If you're looking for exotic and standard flavours of pies, The Pie Hole may have what you're looking for - frozen/fresh in 9" size, in a mini (4"?) format, or in a hand pie format (it's like a Stromboli). On this latest visit, we tried: Raspberry Cream Crumble ($32): one of the signature pies - a great dessert - a lot of raspberry with not-too-sweet cream in a thick, flaky crust. Bourbon Pecan Pumpkin Pie ($34): a neat twist on the traditional pumpkin pie with pecan crumble drizzled with bourbon - a nice touch indeed! Chicken Pot Pie ($7.50 hand pie): better than the Costco version - moist, yet just as thick and chunky! Turkey Dinner Pie ($43): like someone wrapped Thanksgiving dinner inside a pie: shredded turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce all in one - surprisingly good...but bring a little extra gravy/cranberry with you :) === 3. SERVICE The service was great on the phone and in-person. Easy pickup is available for pre-orders (especially during Thanksgiving), and service is good and fast for fresh/frozen pies you order in-person. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's really a storefront; walk down stairs to the retail level and be met with freezers containing pre-orders and a frozen pie selection, a fridge with mini pies, and a display case of fresh pies. It is spacious, but I would leave the wheelchairs and baby strollers behind given the descent into the retail area. Parking involves a spacious private lot (which is full on holidays).

The menu is extensive and the decor is fun and modern. We ordered the hidden gem to share between two people and the portion was perfect. Service was a little slow but understandable as people kept coming in the door. The dessert itself was fantastic and as every bit as delicious as it looks. The ice cream side however tastes very generic like it was from lucerne or a grocery store. I was hoping for more of a homemade ice cream taste. All in all, great options and they ever serve some amazing poutines and burgers. We'll have to come hungrier next time.

For those who loves desserts, this place should probably feel like a heaven! We have been here a…read morecouple of times now when my wife craves for something sweet late at night (because, there aren't a lot of options late in the night). Some of the desserts at this place are just as large as the main course! I had ordered waffles with ice cream and I was full even before I was done halfway. The problem is, since it has ice cream on it, you can't even take it to-go. So, I just had to force-feed myself before the waffles got too soggy. It was way too much sugar for one sitting! My wife had ordered a tres leches cake and it was a bit underwhelming. On our second visit with a few friends, we ordered a bunch of things for the table and once again, the desserts were all underwhelming. The only saving grace was the chocolate hazelnut milkshake, which was quite delicious. However, the milkshake was $15. In a lot of places, that's the price of a main course! Service was average as the hostesses were quite occupied with other guests. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place. It's way too pricey, desserts are underwhelming, and the portion size is ungainly for desserts.

My friends and I tried the cheesecake bingsoo, and melon bingsoo, and ordered them in the large size. There was also a 10% off promotion, which was nice. We didn't expect the servings to be so big! (I think the large size can definitely be shared between 3-4 people). I also found out that bingsoo is made from shaved milk, not shaved ice, so there was a nice milky flavour--complimented by the toppings. Personally, I like the fruit flavours more. The place was quite busy, with a lot of customers and there was only one girl working there. She managed the cash register, as well as making all the orders, I hope that they will shift more staff as she did not get a break!

Pop in for a nice cool treat after dinner at Mongo Bongo next door. Besides ice cream, the ice cream cakes are good too. My favorite flavor is the double chocolate raspberry.

Came here for ice cream after dinner and ordered a mango sorbet in a cup with fish waffle on top…read more Since it was my first one, I wasn't sure how to eat it! Lol! Well I took the fish shaped waffle off the soft serve and ate the sorbet with a spoon then took a bite out of my waffle fish! Apparently after watching everyone else around me, you're supposed to just bite the waffle while it sits atop the soft serve. Oh well I guess I'll have to come back and try it that way next time! The soft serve is very light and the flavours are delicate. The waffle is really yummy with a soft chew. It's a busy and popular spot filled with teens and twenty somethings. The lineup moves pretty quickly but seats are often taken. Tables don't get wiped down often as staff are busy making cones but you can always ask them to wipe it down for you. Great dessert place for something light and refreshing.

I have tried more things from here since my first visit a few years ago. I really want to love the…read morecakes here but they are just not wow to me. The highlight is still the shortbread cookies. The cakes are still not that great to me. The latest cake I tried was the Dubai chocolate cake. If I eat it as just a chocolate cake, then it's good. As Dubai chocolate, it falls way short. It is lacking the kataifi (or knafeh) bits and I can barely taste the pistachio cream or tahini. The chocolate is probably overpowering the other flavors. Very pretty in presentation though. The blackforest cake is also lacking in the kirsch taste. I can barely taste it. Maybe I had a such a great tasting blackforest cake before that many places do not match up to it. Bottom line: just get the shortbread cookie. Get the cakes only if you're really craving it and this is the only place nearby for it.

When I bought their ube flan cake, I was told to let it sit at room temperature for a bit before…read moreenjoying it, as the flan needs to come up to room temperature a bit first. However, they said it should likely be ready now. The first few bites were enjoyable although the ube flavor wasn't too distinct. The flan was tasty, smooth, and custardy. Unfortunately, as I got closer to the center of the dessert, I noticed that the flan was frozen. This must have been the reason why the sales associate told me to let the flan come up to room temperature firsr. Although they never explicitly told me it was frozen. I was really disappointed with finding it partially frozen. The dessert was on the pricier side, and so I'd expect that the ingredients used to be relatively freshly made. I will say that I bought this product at an event, so it's possible they sold out of their initial inventory and the frozen desserts were made as an emergency back up option. 3.5 stars

I might try their ube flan cake at $14.50 next time. The staff at the counter said flan would taste on a sweeter side. I think it would still taste good. The customer service was good. There are a few tables and chairs for people to dine in. I ordered takeout. They also have some special beverages. It's a very unique cake shop!
