Accessible via inside Metro Square and outside the mall the space is not very big but there are a couple of seats including a small table in the corner. You can choose your sugar level and ice. What was ordered: 2 lemon coffees 1 apricot coffee We chose 30% sugar for the lemon coffees and it wasn't enough. The gentleman who made our coffee offered to top up the sugar if we didn't find it was enough. For the apricot coffee he recommended no extra sugar as the apricot is a sweetened purée that that use. With small pieces of apricot mixed into the drink it was very nice. Service was good very but it did take a while for us to get our drinks. We would consider returning if in the area.

Most recently I had their cocoa flavored latte and it did not disappoint. It comes with Cocoa, some of their classic syrup, there are 3.25% milk and espresso sauce. It is nice and sweet and definitely has a great mocha flavor without being too sweet. I came back the next day and got their green tea espresso latte which was also very good. I would definitely come back. The lady at the front desk is very nice and you can ask for more espresso shots if it is too sweet or other preference you have is usually honest free of charge.

Me and my sister got the mango matcha latte and the peach matcha latte and we absolutely loved it. My sister's a matcha aficionado and she loved their matcha latte. I would say that the matcha is quite expensive but I could tell that it is high quality which makes up for it. I spent about $24 for 2 of the large sized matcha lattes.

I got the Rosé Bacon Penne Pasta, which had gochujang in it and it was the perfect level of spice! I've always wanted to try it, and now I'm dying to come back to have this dish again. The only thing I would say is that it's a bit of a small portion for its price, but was still worth it to get.

There's about 7 or 8 tables available, and I sat down at one of the smaller tables since those were the only ones available. There's QR codes on each table so you can order what you want through your phone. They also deliver your food/drinks to your table. I ordered the blueberry matcha latte, which I was pleasantly surprised about! It had just the right amount of sweetness, and the blueberry flavour pairs so well with the matcha. I'd definitely order it again! There is a 75 minute seating policy. however, I'm not too sure if they strictly enforce that. I did work for about an hour and there were people who came before me that were still there. It is a very busy cafe, so if you can't study in a noisy area, I would recommend bringing noise-cancelling headphones or going to a different cafe. Overall, the cafe has a great aesthetic and a short but quality menu. I'll be back when I'm craving a decent matcha!

I was intrigued with their seasonal menu and I'm so glad I checked them out because their drinks were delicious and well rounded in flavour. Opted for their blueberry latte and peach jasmine cloud and both drinks were so delicious! The blueberry latte had a nice subtle blueberry flavour with the coffee. The peach jasmine cloud on the other hand was refreshing but had that savoury cheese foam on the top as well that worked well with the drink pairing. What a great local coffee shop with nicely curated drinks in Markham. Worth checking out for sure.

They have a relatively extensive menu for a cafe spanning typical coffee/espresso-based drinks, tea lattes, salted cheese foam (so creamy!), and speciality tea & coffee lattes. As someone who loves visiting cafes, I'm always on the lookout for unique drinks. I tried their Honey Cream Latte, which had the perfect combo of espresso (not too bitter or bold, but it doesn't get drowned out by the other ingredients), foam, and a light sweetness from the honey. Their matcha lattes looked great too, so I'll definitely have to return for those. The main downsides - parking can be tricky in this plaza, and there is limited seating inside.

I tried the coconut drink with matcha cold foam, super rich coconut flavor that paired perfectly with the matcha. I originally wanted coffee, but the owner recommended it since it's popular, and it did not disappoint! My boyfriend got a hot latte with a strong coffee flavor, which we loved. We studied and read for a bit; the soft music makes it a perfect spot for studying or hanging out with friends. They're only open Fridays and weekends, so be sure to check their Instagram before going for more accurate hours. The owner is incredibly kind and even brought our drinks to the table. Also their prices are tax included which is why on the menu they seem a bit more pricey. There is also no tipping. Definitely coming back!

The rose tea flavour was sooo good, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did but it was the perfect mix of floral, sweet, and tea flavoured. I love how nothing tastes artificial. For around $10, it's a pretty solid place to grab some dessert. The only downside is that they have very limited seating here. We got lucky because a table was just leaving as we arrived, so we managed to snag a small table to sit and chat. But it still gets very crammed in there when there's usually a line that runs along the same area as their seating. This spot is best if you're coming to hang with one person, otherwise it's not very accommodating for groups due to the limitations of their space. Even still, you might not score a seat right away especially if you're coming during peak hours.

My favourite was the apple pie latte--it was tangy, just like the café's name, but also smooth and well-rounded, blending perfectly with the milk and espresso. It was like eating an apple pie in coffee, while the flavours did not overpower the nutty, creamy base of the excellent espresso they use. The Spanish latte and coconut creamy latte were amazing too. The condensed milk in the Spanish latte and the coconut milk in the other were both fresh and delicious, harmonizing beautifully with the espresso. I really enjoyed all three drinks. The pastries? Oh BOYYY, they were delicious. Everything is made in-house - you can literally see them preparing the pastries in the back. My favourite was the corn croissant. As any Taiwanese person knows, we love our fucking corn; we put it in pizza, spaghetti, and bread. The corn croissant at Tangy Cafe is Taiwanese corn-love done right. The croissant was incredibly flaky, complemented by savoury, sweet, and umami bursts of corn kernels and cheese. ARGH, gibe me more of that. Last but not least, the service was 1000000/10. Tangy Cafe has that authentic Taiwanese standard of customer service. The baristas and staff are always warm, attentive, and kind to every customer. Visiting Tangy Cafe made me miss Taiwan a lot. The only downside is that the pastries sell out quickly, so you have to come in the morning to try them.
