When I went inside, I noticed that they specialize in Cheung, a korean fresh fruit syrup, so I thought I had to get a fruity matcha even though I don't usually. I ended up with a matcha latte with added grapefruit cheung. It was nice and tart and flavorful, and really cheered up my day. Pros: - Lots of interesting menu items - Great staff - Very quick service - Sleek, minimal interior with a few seats Cons: - Many steps up make it not accessibility-friendly - My straw was struggling with some grapefruit pieces, perhaps a wider straw would've been better

I ordered their Strawberry Cheong & Matcha Tonic. What's unique about 18Feet is that some of their drinks options are sweetened with cheong which is this jammy fruit marmalade. I have the strawberry cheong and the matcha tonic, it was really good! I don't think I've ever had a carbonated matcha drink and I quite enjoy it. Though I say it's an acquired taste, since my SO didn't like it as much as I did. This location is rather small so mostly takeout. They have some cute merch on display as well. The extensive menu options keep me curious to try more. Though I wish the cheong sweetness level can be adjusted, you can only ask for less cheong, if you don't want it as sweet.

I got the best selling iced mango peach tea drink and a salt bread. The wait took about 5 minutes because almost everyone got the same drink. When I got the drink, I was a bit surprised. The drink was full of frozen mango and not small size. They gave a straw so I had to go back to get a spoon because it was so hard to eat. Thumbs up for the salt bread though! It reminded me of all the yummy salt breads in Seoul!!

They have an interesting mix of regular coffee, Korean‑style drinks, and other specialty options. I also like how the banner menu is displayed -- easy to see everything at a glance. I tried the Mixed Grain Latte, which is their healthier option. It was smooth with a nutty finish and honestly tasted like a power drink in a good way. The Honey White Americano was refreshing and really enjoyable too. It was surprisingly busy even on a weekday afternoon, which is a good sign. I'm planning to order a different drink every time I shop at this Hmart. With how big their menu is, it's going to take me a while to get through everything.

There's very limited outlets (I think two) so you should come early if you want to secure a spot. There's plenty of seats otherwise. Note: if you are in vpn and use the wifi, it'll keep disconnecting. The ambiance is good, it's so aesthetic there's also cute instrumentals in the background. I had a meeting and it was a little loud. My voice was echoing but still understandable. The pastries are also delicious! I also recommend their hinako matcha latte. It's very good and you can tell the matcha is very good quality based on the color. Their soft serve sundaes are also good. Highly recommend this cafe! Just come early if you want pastries

I came after lunch time on a weekday. It wasn't busy And The employee served us right away. It was tough choosing as they have an abundance of choices. We ended up selecting 6 cakes as it included tax. It still was on the pricey side at over $40 But The cakes were delicious. They were soft and delectable. I would come back if in the area again. Side note: the branded box was nice but almost everybody is doing that nowadays. Luckily the cakes live up to their reputation.

I love ginger beverages- it wasn't overpowering here, I mostly tasted the kiwi and sparkling lemonade. It was busy in there but we still got our orders and drinks quickly, I appreciate how fast the service was. My friend got one of their banana bread drinks - if you like the taste of hojicha, this was particularly strong which I personally enjoyed! Love how the store also has sections where it is like a little market selling local goods and always fun to see the dogs that are sitting outside. The prices are a little expensive (my refresher before tax was $7.5) but typical for what you'd pay in Toronto for a fun drink, from what I've seen.

I'd absolutely come here to get some work done if I was able to get a seat. One thing I really love is that they sell handmade goods from local artists and host craft nights, it feels very community driven and adds such a fun, unique touch to the café. Drinks I tried: Maple Goguma Latte - Slightly nutty, lightly sweet, and super comforting. I added a shot of espresso, which made it perfectly balanced and not too sweet. Dalgona Latte - A really fun drink with great texture. Just make sure to stir it well since the sweetness settles at the bottom. They're known for their creative, seasonal drink menu, and I'm already excited to come back to try what they release next season. Definitely a must-visit if you love cozy cafés, unique drinks, and supporting local artists.

There were at least 4 people working and they actually use an electric whisker so the wait time for our drinks weren't too bad. I ordered their double pistachio matcha, which had a really strong pistachio taste that I really liked. It was on the sweeter side which I liked actually (even with less sweet). The pistachio taste was actually stronger than their matcha so if you want more depth in your matcha, it might be more worthwhile to get just the regular matcha latte. Think its a good place to go if you're from out of town or in the area, but wouldn't know if I would necessarily come back for it since there's so many different matcha places nowadays.
