This was a small and cute coffee shop we came to for a late morning snack. The staff were friendly. We both ordered Lattes and shared a tomato & cheese pastry that was quite good. read more

A smallish coffee shop but the decor is so warm and inviting I visited in the afternoon and there was a number of individuals in there who were working remotely there's not too many tables so I would imagine it gets filled up quickly. I ordered an ice a latte and the server was extremely nice note that they don't take cash. The Latte was smooth it wasn't bitter I did ask for some simple syrup but I said less than what you normally would put in a latte so that I can still taste the coffee. I truly enjoyed it even on the rainy day that it was read more

My go to place when I'm in Canada, great iced mocha with oat milk, this time when I went tho I think the lady was new cuz it tasted very watered down. read more

Finally got to stop by and check out this spot. It gets busy during peak hours. The quality of the coffee is great here. It's furnished in a chic sophisticated style. Prices are average and it's great to be here for a short stay. I'd say check it out during a slower time of the day. There is outdoor seating as well however it is limited. Definitely a place to add to your coffee shop Bucket list in Toronto! read more

Very cute cafe with such lovely owners! (I think they were the owners, if not then barista!!) one asked me how my coffee was and if I needed anything after I sat down. I came here just before 1 on a Saturday and got the last seat available. They have 8 seats with a few being single seats. Now the coffee! I loved my flat white!! The beans they use are really nice and mix well with the frothed milk. They also have a few options for milk alternatives, and they have a dark chocolate syrup for mochas (which I like more as it is richer and less sweet!!). Overall great atmosphere and people. Will come back for sure when I am next in the area! read more

I love Shy Coffee for the ambiance, the great tasting coffee, and the no fuss service. There's plenty of places to sit (seats do fill up though!) and during warmer seasons they add seating outside too. The pastries are not always the freshest, the cookies are great, but the coffee is what I come for. It's always busy with people ordering coffee to-go or regulars hanging out, conversing, or bringing their laptops to work. If you're in the area I definitely recommend Shy Coffee. The interior is lovely, calm, peaceful. The light wood accents with the cozy warm whites create a beautiful and comfortable atmosphere. There are large windows that pull in all the natural light. It's a great place to visit. There's also a clean bathroom on site. Little tip, there are some wooden games, at the front where you pay, that you can borrow to pass some time with a friend. Check it out! read more

Cute spot on King St. Good vibes, friendly staff and good coffee. Had an iced Americano - really clean flavour and priced fairly too (3.50). Will be back when I'm in the area read more

Shy Coffee - Iced americano - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Long story short: A beautiful and inviting cafe with a European feel to get your coffee fix! Long story long: I came here to focus on some work and it worked! Got my coffee fix at the same time: an almond milk lavender latte. Delicious, smooth and slightly sweet. They also have a small selection of pastries to choose from, which I didn't indulge in, but the pain au chocolat looked good! I've been curious about this place because of the welcoming storefront, and it did not disappoint. The inside is so beautiful! Chestnut leather seats, marble tables, greenery... Very cozy and quiet. I also noticed how clean everything was. No dirty dishes sitting in the designated tray, the table I sat at was already wiped clean. The place looked and felt new. The barista was very kind and accommodating. I liked the playlist playing too! Overall, great coffee and a great place to sit with a friend or get some work done without distractions. read more

Shy Coffee - Lavender latte with a relaxed view - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Shy Coffee Co. is at the intersection of King St. W/Tecumseh. The coffee shop has all your coffee needs and sells pastries as well. The wood walls/floor and marble tables make it feel trendy yet warm. There are around 10 tables in the shop and free wifi is available. I stopped by Shy Coffee Co. on a Wednesday night at around 5pm to grab a coffee after work. Service was friendly and my Americano was great. Overall, great new addition to the King/Bathurst area if you're looking for a good coffee shop to work in or meet up with friends! read more

New in the neighbourhood, best looking and very mid century modern vibes in terms of interiors! Coffee is never less when compared and one of the best.. They kind of have a Victorian door which makes it look even more interesting.. and not to forget that this place has a couple of board games on two tables. Also, very instagrammable photos can be taken here as everything looks so new and shiny! Definitely will be going back here for their coffee along with friends next time!! read more

Charming. From the baristas warm greeting, to the storefront, outstanding interior design and offerings... all charming. As a coffee lover who cannot drink caffeinated coffee I am always on the search for a decent cup of decaf. A large decaffeinated Americano, with cream, is my usual go to. This cup was light and fruity unlike the bitter, astringent cup I recently encountered elsewhere. Though I long for a different kind of café culture than what we have here in Toronto, the kind where friends meet and talk instead of looking at their phones or plugging in to work, Shy Coffee Co. offers both elegant respite while providing the contemporary requisites. Lots of natural light to read by and a truly lovely, intimate space. The friendly, knowledgeable staff are efficient, good-humoured and make the place what it is. read more

Shy Coffee - Decaf Americano and a lovely spot to do some reading. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I am so overjoyed to have discovered Shy Coffee Co.! I am not normally in this area but I have been taking a course all week long and our trainer recommended this spot to us. I loved it so much that I have come by every day this week. Plus, the decor is very LA meets Toronto, which I loved. ;) What can I say? It's just so rare to find outstanding customer service in Toronto anymore and Shy Coffee totally delivers! Whether I was ordering in-store or breezing through to pick up a Ritual order, every person I interacted with there stopped to say hello or say thank you with a bright smile on their face. They also steamed my oat milk for free and made personal recommendations on their variety of tasty baked goods! They have vegan and gluten-free options and carry *all of the milks* for anyone with a dietary restriction. Plus, one day, some of my fellow students and I wanted to stay there to study in the evening, but we got there just as they were closing. They offered to stay open another hour for us to stay and work! Isn't that so nice? We ended up going elsewhere cause we knew we'd be awhile, but I thought it was so sweet that they offered to stay open for us. Take my money, Shy! read more

I love this coffee spot! Service is always super friendly and their pastry and treat options are amazing!! They bake fresh croissants in house daily, sometimes they will even let you know when the next fresh batch will be ready! Their espresso based drinks are super well done, and they are always eager to create something to suit your tastes. Also they have a super cute little patio out front, giving very much European cafe vibes. read more

Shy Coffee - Iced Americano - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is a great addition to the area. The interior feels very airy and French. The cafe fits about 20+patio space. I found 2 electrical power outlets and the Wi-Fi tested at 83/28. A pretty good Wifi speed. Makes for a good place for working. It's very busy which is a good sign of quality. I tried a couple of the energy balls - chocolate and mocha. Both pretty good. Large variety of pastries for the size of the cafe - sourced from great Toronto vendors - Sweetheart Kitchen, Circles + Squares, Delysees, Earth + City, Rawcology. Worth a visit. read more

Absolutely love this cafe! Decor is beautiful and is great for artsy photos. Lots of coffee and pastry options are available. They also have other milk options available which was great to hear. My family and I ordered cappuccinos and a matcha latte. The cappucino was great, however the matcha latte was lacking flavour and tasted very grainy (due to excess matcha powder). I would definitely return, however, I would probably order something other than the matcha latte. read more

Well appointed and beautifully decorated wood panelled coffee shop right on King St. Pastries are sourced from Circles and Squares, so you know it's going to be good. I would try to be respectful and not camp out here too long, as the seating is limited, and some people may want to get a seat too! Bonus points for the awning in front and the little fenced off area that gives the place a tidy and welcoming vibe. read more

Another stellar example of sexy coffee, great Americano and like any top coffee house it's a double shot as standard! Also the decor here is great, lovely place for a first date if you was to have one of them without alcohol - I guess you could try that... Anyway, the cakes are great too - try the brownies *drools* read more

I absolutely loved this place! Beautiful space with friendly barista. It was a little quiet (as in, I don't think there was any background music) but no complaints, my overall experience was great. Yes, the price point isn't low but I think it's similar to Starbucks since my bill came out to $7 or $8 with coffee and muffin after tips. Cafe is connected to Davido Afnani, a menswear boutique and it seemed like the owner of the store opened the cafe as well. The streetcar stops very close to the cafe and it's not a bad walking distance to the subway either. read more

Shy Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Cute neighbourhood 15-20 seater café in the King/Bathurst area. Table height is adequate for typing or reading hard-copy light-hearted fiction but way too low for writing or note-taking (am average height female). Wifi available, request guest password. Can see this space being super lovely in the summer, esp with the porch-like area serving as outdoor seating. However, unless a sidewalk vestibule (read: an additional door) is added, too many ins & outs will let in wintry drafts and you'll need to keep your winter coat on. UPDATE: Shy Coffee is looking into this:) Def enjoying the variety of baked goods sourced locally: delysees, circles & square, sweethart, rawcology! read more

The barista's at Shy are all incredible. A wee chat with Miles made my day so much better yesterday. In addition to the awesome people who run Shy everyday, the coffees and lattes are perfection! read more

My friend and I love coming here for our morning work dates. It's not a very spacious cafe but it has a great European-style atmosphere and good drinks and food. I think the coffee is solid and the breakfast sandwiches are yummy, but not spectacular enough for a 5-star rating! read more

Peppermint latte was great. Peanut butter and raspberry muffin was superb. Beautiful and cozy ambience on a cold morning. Would not recommend the chocolate donut. The shop smells heavenly in the morning. read more

This place has stunningly good coffee - holy smokes. The cappuccinos are milky caffeinated goodness - smooth, nutty bean coffee. Most remarkable about this place is the atmosphere. Gorgeous wood paneled walls, lacquered, glossy white tile, with sweet little carved Joker figurines, immaculate wood ceiling fans and really neat wood accents. I'm so impressed with this place. Comfy chairs and fun games. Lovely atmosphere. I could've stayed all day. I was so happy here. read more

I ordered Cortado and banana muffin. I liked it... muffin taste really good and fresh!

My favourite thing to drink here is the London fog tea latté with oatmilk. It has a hint of vanilla to! The staff is very friendly. The decor is beautiful and kept clean and tidy. Nice, little and quaint. Positive vibes in the atmosphere and styled up. read more

Shy is such a cute, aesthetically pleasing place to be. The staff is sweet, there are plants dotting the shop (for all my other plant lovers out there), and there's a cute little touch of small games on some of the tables. The floor to ceiling windows that make up the front of the store offer lots of natural light that is so needed during this time of the year, without taking away from the coziness of the place. I'd recommend this place to anyone who'd want a good place to read or catch up with a friend! read more
