San Vito has some amazing coffee. The food looks great, and the menu reads reasonably healthy…read more Seating is comfortable, wifi fast. There is even free parking, and the prices are great. Three or four tables have power receptacles, and the staff is friendly. Everything about this place says that it should be a 5-star, daily visit, favorite. Except it's not. Don't get me wrong. I find myself going there more and more. It is just somehow less relaxing than a starbucks. On fire. I can't pick just what it is. The inconsistent décor, the stripmall flooring, or utilitarian seating arrangement. It just lacks character. It's a fine enough place. And I really would suggest it to anybody. I really do like it. I just can't love it.

I have a feeling this a takeaway spot and not meant for hanging around long. I had a cortado and it was smooth and well balanced. I would definitely come back here again and would try an espresso or cappuccino. They had a small pastry case, but it was mostly sold out when I was in around 1:30 pm. Has a small restroom and on the way there, there's a cute selection of books for purchase. Staff were very kind and service was fast. I'll be back!

Instead, it was matcha latte with syrup at the bottom, which I believe was lavender syrup. It's also topped with their coffee cloud cold foam. Regardless, it was darn good! After doing a bit of research on Google, turns out that the combination of matcha latte and lavender is supposed to resemble the taste of milk that's leftover from a bowl of fruit loops. If you're not feeling like coffee, tea or a latte, they have other drinks available including beer and wine. I thought I was coming into a coffee shop, but they actually had a lot more to offer, including pizza on their menu.

I haven't tried their sandwiches and meals yet but when I do I am sure I'll give them 5 stars. I…read morethink the real tea drinks are pretty good. They are not super sweet, keep that in mind, but I think you can ask them to add more sweetness to it. I personally like the real tea taste to my drink. I tried the "Kiwi" flavor tea and added boba/pearls to my drink. I liked it a lot! I went around 5pm and there wasn't anyone there, I had the staff's undivided attention! He was very nice and pleasant. The meals look so good too but I wasn't very hungry at the time. UPDATE: I tried their hummus and egg waffle sandwich and found it pretty good. I don't think the flavors of the egg and hummus go extremely well together but it's not bad. 4 stars for the taste. I also tried the cold blueberry tea and it was delicious. My friend loved his syrup bacon waffles and matcha green tea smoothie.

If you're not willing to go to Panda Tea or Chatime (both quite far from Osborne), this place is probably the best substitute out there for tea. I had the $10.99 lunch special, which consisted of a waffle sandwich and an iced fusion tea. I went with a waffle dog and lychee iced fusion tea. The waffle was quite savoury, but the concept of two waffles with a smokie sausage...didn't seem to fit right. The end product literally looked like a sausage sandwiched between two waffles. It still tasted good though, which I guess is what counts. The iced fusion tea was decent too. Definitely not the best place to dine in the Village, but a good place to sit back and chat/do some work while having a bubble tea and a sandwich.

I didn't even notice it until I needed to use the washroom, and ended up going up the stairs to discover it. They have a bunch of leather products from Wilder Winnipeg that is available for purchase, such as wallets, totes, backpacks, duffel bags, belts, etc. There also other merchandise for purchase from Thom Bargen, such as shirts, mugs, coffeemakers, etc. I have tried their lattes, which were alright. I have also had their cortado and matcha chai latte, both of which are my favourite to order.

The blueberry muffin was dry but the chocolate chip was moist and perfect. The main thing that will bring me back is sandwiches that we didn't even order.
