I like their smoothies but very expensive. Only splurge on this place if you really like smoothies otherwise if you just want to be healthy, just buy a bag of grapes from nofrills. read more

I really had high expectations of Nutbar after reading all the glowing write ups. I was excited to try a healthy restaurant. Perhaps this is where I faltered. I ordered the acai bowl and the vanilla smoothie. I found it hard to eat the acai bowl, as it did not taste very good. The vanilla smoothie was more palatable, but it fell flat for me, especially at these premium prices. read more

Nutbar is the place for a bougie, healthy snack, but don't be surprised at the sticker shock. A smoothie is priced at $13 (add ons extra) and lattés are some of the most expensive in the city. The namesake nutbar, a delicious concoction of nuts, seeds, dates other superfoods and chocolate, is quite delicious so definitely splurge on that. A great vibe for an outing with a friend or working remotely, bit space is limited. Service is hit or miss. read more

Disgusting food and smoothies. Never again, it is not worth the price and even if it was free I wouldn't touch it again.

I was super excited to try this place out, as they have some super cool and unique superfood drinks. If I'm being completely honest, I'm weary of the term "superfood" being used as a way to market food products. But I wanted to try this place out anyways because they seemingly had some promising items and I was excited about the idea of having a nutrient-dense coffee. Inside the cafe is quite loud and it's hard to hear the person at the cash register when you're placing your order. The combination of having a small space, wearing masks, loud music, and loud machines work together to make it really hard to hear one another. This isn't a really big deal, but just not what I was expecting the atmosphere to be like. I ordered the supercoffee and my friend ordered one of their nutmilk bottles. I was really excited to try out my coffee, but I wasn't very impressed with how it tasted. Despite having vanilla and honey, the drink was flavorless. I could hardly taste the espresso because the nutmilk was SO overpowering and frothy. If you typically like milky drinks, you might like this. However, my friend and I both disliked this drink. It's also a very expensive for what you're getting. The drinks were relatively small and there was nothing special about it. I don't think this is the place for me, but might be worth trying out if you're into "superfoods." read more

I was influenced by someone i follow on instagram to try this place and boy am i glad i did. I got this via ubereats so you KNOW that it must be good for me to (1) give it 4 stars (2) pay the mark up price on uber eats on the menu AND on the service/delivery fee. I got the supermatcha and chillpills. Supermatcha- it tastes like a regular matcha with a kick of the coconut oil. You definitely notice the coconut aroma in this and it's very silky smooth. Chill pill- this is the healthier hot chocolate. It's thicker and quite dense - aka quite filling. I LOVED this and would 100% get this again. Next time, I want to try their turmeric latte or beetroot one. Honestly, they all look so good - i just wish this was closer to me so i wouldn't have to pay the surcharge from Ubereats and simply spent that money to order one more thing from this shop instead. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon to try their famous housemade nut milk! The shop is super small, but with the large windows, has plenty of natural light. There are roughly 8 seats in the café, so the three of us occupied almost half of the store! I ordered the supercoffee, a unique blend of coffee, raw honey, steamed nutbar nutmilk, coconut oil, and vanilla. The drink was super smooth; there was a lot of microfoam that made it taste very full-bodied and go down easily. Interestingly enough, I found that there was a sour undertone to the coffee; however, my friends could only taste the bitterness. Perhaps it's the way my taste buds processed the flavour! The sourness faded after a while, making the drink easier to consume. My friend got the super matcha, which was very rich and earthy. I had a sip, and I greatly preferred it to my supercoffee. Overall, nutbar is a quaint place with cool drinks and a relaxing vibe. Come check it out, and remember to have some nutmilk! read more

During this visit I ordered a latte and avocado toast. Both were so good and items I've ordered countless times. They change some of their menu items seasonally, but the avocado toast seems to always be on the menu. read more

When I originally found this cute, healthy, vegan spot I was truly jumping out of excitement. The menu - perfection. The quality - perfection. The idea - perfection. The service - amongst the worst, that I have seen in this city The baristas are always annoyed, regardless of the time of day that you go in. They look at you like you are the worst part of the day, and your questions are received with an exaggerated eye-roll. I don't understand how this is consistent regardless of which location I go to, what time of day I go in, or which member of the staff that I encounter. Pretty sad that I have to avoid this spot because I am not in the mood to be greeted with their constant attitude. Step up guys, because the competition in this city is growing every day, and most people generally like to be greeted with a smile when they are coming into to spend their money at your establishment. read more

Nutbar - Avocado Toast; Turmeric Latte; Orange Smoothie; Carrot Cake Bar; Nut Bar; Chocolate Smoothie - Cafes Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I stopped by Nutbar on a Saturday morning after working out. Nutbar is located just a walk away from Summerhill subway station downstairs. The place itself is small and designed as a grab and go type of cafe even though there are several seats available. Everything in the cafe is vegan, organic, and healthy, perfect for a post workout meal or even a healthy breakfast/lunch/snack. I ordered an avocado toast (with avocado, red radish, smoked olive oil, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and sea salt with bread from Prairie Boy Bakery) and a nutbar drip coffee (drip coffee with nutbar nutmilk which is a custom housemade blend of organic cashew, almond and coconut milks). Service was friendly and quick even though staff seemed busy due to the many customers coming in. I managed to find a seat to eat my breakfast and I found everything to be delicious and healthy. Will come back to try more items and drinks soon! read more

Been coming here consistently for the past couple of weeks exclusively for their Ultimate Recovery smoothie which has blueberries in them. Today they were out of blueberries and offered raspberries in it. The barista literally put 3 raspberries in the mixer. And guess what a $16 smoothie tasted like bland vegan protein shake! When I'm smiling at them and mention that the amount of blueberries they always put in the shake is a lot more and this is bland, she says we hope to get more blueberries soon!!! And I agree with the rest of the reviewers, the staffs attitude needs a major recalibration!!! read more

Anyone giving 1 star for service, stop takings things so personally. It's about the food, you are getting take out, settle down! Small businesses are battling to find ANYONE to work in their businesses so give them a break. End of the day, let's focus on the facts - 1) 100% ORGANIC!!!! you have to pay to play people, cost of ingredients are high so in turn, so will the end product. 2) DELICIOUS!! The toasts, bars, etc are all amazing. ENJOY :) read more

4 stars for a small, cute, and clean spot that has extra bells and whistles for your coffee. Good place for daytime conversation. Got the nutbar and cookie dough thing. Both weren't too sweet (which I liked) and the nutbar has good enough flavour. I think they were pretty pricey for what they were, but my friend and I were in a "let's try this tiny cute snack for the sake of it". I probably wouldn't pay $6 for fresh toast), but I would try their coffee or specialty drinks when I'm on the neighbourhood. read more

Nutbar - Cafes Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I've recently discovered a few things about my stomach: it no longer can tolerate milk very well, and many milk substitutes, and it won't drink coffee, decaf or caffeinated. UGH. In my search for a satisfying hot beverage that isn't tea, I have found a new appreciate for turmeric lattes. I tried the gold latte at Cafe M, which was good, and then set out to Nutbar as they have their own homemade milk substitute. The cons: slooooowwww moving. Expensive AF. But the latte was delicious and didn't upset my stomach at all. My fiancé and I shared an acai "bowl" (cup) and it was good, definitely need to share as it's a bit monotonous. I would 100% go back for the turmeric latte, but maybe that's the only item I would order. read more

This is a very interesting place. There are no seats. They just have big counters. I ordered Tumeric latter and it was very good. It costs $6.50. It is expensive, but it is worth of trying it once in a while not every morning. The place was clean and stylishly decorated. They do not have any bathroom for customers, so don't drink too much. read more

Branded as a "superfood snack cafe", Nutbar is a pretty, calming little spot with beautiful decor. They have smoothies, toast, coffee, energy bites and even soup! Ordered the Vanilla smoothie which was made with nut milk, cashews, dates, vanilla and sea salt. At $9.50, it ain't cheap but it tasted amazing and also comes in a good portion size. The dates really complemented the rest of the smoothie and the texture was on point. Honestly couldn't have enough of it! read more

I really like their toasts, coffee and energy balls but the smoothies are absolutely disgusting and overpriced. As for the staff, I've mostly had a decent encounter but I get where people are coming from with the not so friendly vibes. It's a cute place though overall! read more

I tried the Fresh Fizz and it was very good, very refreshing. I also like I could bring my laptop to work. Sometimes the music gets too loud but that's ok. read more

I was so excited to see a healthy/vegan food shop opening in Leslieville but was super disappointed with the food. The avocado toast had zero flavour. The bread felt like it was raw inside. All there was on top of it was plain mashed avocado, slices of raw radish and nutritional yeast. No spices or herbs or sprouts, not even any salt! All you can taste is the sour taste of the bread. I also ordered the matcha latte and being Japanese, the combo of oat milk and matcha do not go together. If you've never had matcha before and love oatmeal you might like this flavour, but in my opinion matcha needs to be highlighted, especially since they say they use ceremonial grade matcha (the highest and most expensive grade of matcha) which should only be mixed with water. The matcha lattes at David's Tea made with almond milk are 10x better and half the price. Will not be going back to Nutbar. Their prices are ridiculous for the quality and taste of food. Anthony Bourdain would be rolling in his grave right now RIP. read more

Save your dollars. Really wanted to love the place but they are not trying either. Pros. Cute name definitely gets my ears perked when I hear nut since I am always on a high fat diet. Coffee was great. No complaints there. Cons. Price price price. I eat a lot of healthy food so I know the market on this end of the game their prices are just ridiculous for what you get. $4 - Lemon Poppy Seed, taste is so-so, good ingredients but size of a dime. $8 - Overnight Oats. Taste was bland and very small portion, VERY TINY. $6 - Breakfast Bar - have not tried yet but packing everything into one bag ruined the two bars. read more

A little bit pretentious and a little bit overpriced. Pretty standard things for vegan spots like this one. Lots of healthy options. We got the avocado toast and it was small and not that great. We did get some power balls and those were delicious. The staff was nice and helpful. It was a good place to stop if you want something quick and healthy, but it wasn't my favorite. read more

Nutbar makes their own nut milk and incorporates that into their hot drinks. It's a very unique taste that both confused my tastebuds and made sparks fly! Using their own homemade milk definitely sets them apart from their competitors. Tumeric latte was A+. And matcha latte was a little raw and earthy tasting to me! Regular cup Coffee was AMAZING Though! read more

If I could buy an apartment directly above Nutbar and eat all of my meals there, I'd gladly pay top dollar. I've tried almost everything on the menu and have yet to come across anything I don't love. The classic avocado toast is a guaranteed favorite (the combination of smoked olive oil & the salty nutritional yeast is spectacular). Nutbar has the best coffee in the area. Definitely drive past the Starbucks and get your daily dose at Nutbar (by the way, they have dairy milk and cream, which I prefer in my coffee to nut milks - but I hear the nut milk is awesome). Super friendly staff and amazing decor. Highly recommend to everyone! read more

This hidden snack bar is the perfect spot to come in for a quick pick me up during the day or a healthy bite to eat after a solid work out. The staff are pleasant and knowledgable! My favourite part of NutBar is obviously the ambience and clean,sleek and modern look of the space. The seating is limited, this is not a place to come to sit down and eat, it's more of a quick grab and go. They're known for their fancy roasts , hot drinks and nutritious smoothies. The price point is shocking , it's definitely pricier than Starbucks but cheaper than a juice bar. I would for sure return when in the area :) read more

The açai bowl here is gross!! It's extremely watery (more so than a smoothie), flavorless and overall bland. Definitely not $12.50. P.S they don't have a bathroom here and seating is uncomfortable. Only reason I'm giving 2 stars is for the ambiance- interior design, music and lots of wall plugs. read more

I went to nutbar a few months ago with my friend because the food and drinks they serve are right up our alley. We were most intrigued by the turmeric latte which was delicious and the cups were STUNNING! We also got a couple snacks- the nutbar and raspberry chia pudding. Nutbar was great, raspberry chia I could've made myself. The only annoying thing was the lack of seating. We had to stand at a big communal table to enjoy our snacks because the seats were all taken...including the ones taken by people who were done and just chilling. They should really get a "20 minute limit" sign or something. I probably wouldn't return because it's so far from the downtown core and there's nothing else exciting in the area so it's not worth the TTC trip. read more

Stumbled upon this pretty cafe when in the neighborhood. I decided to try a turmeric latte based on recommendations from the friendly staff - totally delicious! Also enjoyed the cookie dough ball.

Love this place. Their homemade nut milk is amazing, and tastes like a healthy(ish) milkshake. Their snacks are really good - some energy ball type things, avocado toast, acaii "bowls" etc. It all tastes fresh and delicious, a ton seems to be gluten free, and packed with random "superfood" type stuff. There are a few random things that don't have flavor, but I have to believe are more of a health thing - like their detox drink (mint and chlorophyll) for real tastes like water. Blue water. And oh man... It ain't cheap. A nut drink and a single avocado toast will set you back the greater part of twenty bucks and won't fill you for long. But it definitely suits the Rosedale yoga pants crowd. Worth a stop... But it's an expensive hobby. read more

Came here two days in a row while visiting from out of town. The first time, I ordered the Vanilla, Chocolate & Ultimate Recovery. The Vanilla was bland and watery. I gave them a try the next day and ordered the $16smoothie. It was AWFUL. I turned to the baristas and complained the flavour was really terrible (I mean the worst smoothie I've ever had) and they replied that it was "supposed to taste like that". What terrible customer service. I mean if a customer is unhappy, you offer to make them something else. Right?? Anyways, would not recommend this place and would never return. Customer service was poor, product was arguably worse and to top it all off the pricing is ridiculous. read more

Unfortunately Nutbar falls completely flat in terms of setting the right expectations. The Nutbar milk and other specialty drinks (turmeric latte) are interesting but the toasts and coffee are terrible. $6 for a smothering of avocado and burnt coffee make this a huge no no. Served on a piece of wax paper adds insult to injury that I just paid $6 for a small piece of toast I could've easily had at home. Similarly for the rest of the nut toasts, it's just "nuts" to pay that much. Would never come back and highly recommend against it to anyone who has asked. read more

This is my favourite place in the whole city!!! Finally - a healthy, beautifully decorated, friendly place to go after my yoga classes. I am very picky about things being organic and have been searching for a place like this forever. I am obsessed with the savoury toast and the hot ginger / cranberry drink. I like how this place isn't a juice bar - I'm actually not really into juices - and instead all their drinks are super creative, colourful, healthy, delicious, refreshing drinks made from things like E3 live, spirulina, matcha, turmeric, chaga... My favourite for after yoga is the detox! Plus they have healthy vanilla milkshakes, turmeric lattes made with AMAZING nut milk, and their coffee is amazing! I've ditched the Starbucks down the road in favour of this place. As an added bonus, the staff is very friendly, the place is BEAUTIFUL inside and it just has such a warm and inviting feeling. I honestly come here 3-4 times a week. If you haven't checked this place out yet I highly recommend it!!! read more

Drinks were okay. The thing is - If you choose to provide seating in your coffee shop it should be mandatory to provide a bathroom for the customers who are spending their money on your services and spending time in your facility. When I asked about a washroom I was promptly told "we don't have one". Later I asked if there was any way I could use the employee washroom I was hit with another no and told to go to the sushi place up the street. It is pretty simple courtesy to allow your customers to use the washroom. And employees could be a bit more understanding / nice about it. read more

Nutbar offers health-conscious alternatives to many favourites, so you won't feel guilty having more than 1 of their delicious cookie dough balls!!

So happy I found this place! This healthy coffee shop has the most unique and welcoming vibes in Toronto!

I was in the neighbourhood so I checked out nutbar as per the Yelp community! Its located at the corner of the intersection and below the ground. It is a lot smaller than expected and not the type of cafe to sit and chat with your friends as there are not that many seats at all. The barista isn't as welcoming as other cafes I've visited. It seemed like she just wanted me to order and that was it. I ordered the nutbar latte and to be honest it was good but not something I would get again, especially the price. read more

My go to place for guilty free treats. cozy and their nut milk is out of this world. Hope one day they will sell the nut milk alone. Love their matcha latte and chocolate ball. Recently they added soup, good for a quick snack. Expensive place, little sitting. read more

I love the concept and the array of superfood creations and healthy drinks are alluring enough for the gym go-ers, the yummy mummies and the business hustlers to and fro. I appreciate the effort in sourcing the coffee and bread and that its organic. Location: Being on the corner is easy enough. Access: Its a steep flight of stairs down to the lower sub-level. Space: Its limited but works as its not a big meal sit down place either - its a healthy cafe. Nice decor. Service: Couldn't fault it. Price: Its pricey for sure and admittedly I've simply made it at home afterwards and was amused I could replicate it so easily. Its not rocket science but it is good for you. Packaging: Hot drink cups are cool in their visual print. The weightier food not so much. IE getting a $6.50 piece bread slice ie avocado with nutritional yeast which is like fish flakes (but yummy) handed to you on a piece of flimsy paper, inevitably they drop to the floor which is a let down and makes it feel less substantiative. Overall: I think its good to have in the neighborhood. Its a rich area, but I would like to see better value for money and more impressive items which people cant so easily replicate at home. Opportunity: To get more creative to match the price. Would I go again? Sure, its a conscious minded and well intended place. They haven't lured me in as a cult following with any items of particular delight but I'd go again, sporadically. read more

I love this place! I have been twice and have tried the acai bowl, vanilla smoothie, drip coffee and the Sweet Toast. Everything was delicious and will definitely come back to try more items on the menu. My only reason for giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 is that the portions are way too small. The toast is like 1/2-3/4 the size of a normal piece of bread. This place is dubbed a "Snack Bar" so perhaps I have gone here too hungry on both accounts :) read more
