    Espresso
    Sam D.

    I rarely give the 5 stars, Pop deserves it. They give their espresso the special treatment it deserves, serving with bubbly water. It's a kind of hidden location. Easy to pass by without finding it. They have patio space. Location fits about 30 people, although it was empty when I visited. Blazing fast WiFi tested at 233/50. Electric power outlets all over the place. There is a room on the south side which isn't obvious when you first come in. The vibe is mixed industrial, classic flooring, luscious plants, wall art, and some funky touches. With the Ryerson residence next door and the student condos going up, this cafe will be getting super busy and popular.

    I love when new micro coffee roasters pop onto my radar... pun not intended but it works. This one comes from GTA West but has set up shop in the central east side of downtown Toronto. It's an unassuming spot as the street isn't known for food or coffees. It's kinda a non-descript generic office and old condo spot. When you walk in, there's a lot of space and they have made it a great place. It's not your traditional industrial loft atmosphere, it has a bit of personality. With an edgy graffiti wall and an alcove off to the side, you have a lot of great spots to sit down and enjoy your cup. The large windows let in a lot of light so you're feeling in a nice open space. Service here is really nice... very attentive and careful to do a good cup. They use their own beans and the barista was explaining that it was a bit fruit forward and adventurous but not too much for Toronto. They also had a lot of other options for drinks if coffee isnt your thing. I like how they're stocking Loop which is a Montreal based juice that uses only 'ugly' fruit and not allowing them to go to waste. They also taste amazing. Flat White - True to the barista words, this was definitely more tea like anf fruit forward than traditional beans. It's not too foreign to any coffee drinker but I can see this being 'different' to most people. It has a bit of acidity to it ... not too acidic but it's definitely there. I did find the pour quite good. Is it my favourite bean... no but it's definitely one of the better options I've tasted coming out of the newer micro roasters in Toronto. That makes me happy! 4/5 Overall, great little spot if you're in the area. It's not quite the destination spot yet but I would definitely take the trek of 10 minutes to head here if I'm in the area.

    A great little place to escape the hustle of downtown great music, lovely atmosphere and ample tables. They roast their own coffee and have a wide selection of unique drinks Try the Espresso Tonic and their amazing cold brew with a undertone of blueberrys

Still one of my favourite places to do some computer work. Wifi can be a bit spotty at time, but I still like to work here offline for the vibes.

There are four glass-top tables (with vintage books displayed within them) that can accommodate 3-4 people. There are also a couple of benches against the wall in the order pick-up area. Opposite to that is the neat window seating / bench area where I was able to make myself comfortable by sitting cross-legged on the seating cushion. °³ Overhead Venting: Sitting directly under the ceiling vents provided a welcome, cooling AC breeze in the tight space. °″ Basement Contrast: The clean and delicate aesthetic of the upper level sharply contrasts with the dingy, dungeon-like basement and stinky washroom. The stairway separating the two levels functions as an "inter-resting" transition zone--literally residing between the two tiers--featuring an installation wall where a megaphone, briefcase satchel, and a canteen are mounted directly onto a wooden display board. *To be fair, the actual seating area in the basement was aesthetically furnished similar to the upstairs but felt quite cramped. 댄스고 ======== For more content, follow @daenseugo

Walking inside, the warm cosy lighting and long barista/display counter immediately caught our eye. While it was relatively busy, it was also fairly quiet - perfect for those who wanted a quieter space as well as those looking for soft, casual conversation. We were sucked in by the delectable looking strawberry roll cake in the display counter for an early dessert! The cake was light, fluffy, and not overly sweet, balanced with just the right amount of strawberry & whipped cream filling. We also shared a hot, unsweetened matcha latte. The bitterness of the matcha, creaminess of the frothed milk & whipped cream, and sweetness of the cake were a perfect culinary match :) Would definitely come back for another visit!

There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, and I chose to sit outside, which was really pleasant. The only thing I would mention is that the cashier could have been a little more enthusiastic. I completely understand that not every day is a great day, but even a small smile can go a long way. That being said, she did make our coffees really quickly, and they tasted great, so I appreciated that! I also noticed a few flies around one of the pastries on display. It personally didn't bother me too much, but I could see it bothering some other customers, especially with the concerns about bedbugs in the downtown area. Overall, I would 100% visit again. I enjoyed the coffee, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the service was fast. I'd definitely come back, but not everyday because it was a bit pricy.
