I went for the canelé but they didn't have it, which was a bit disappointing🥹 The Basque cheesecake was so good though!💕
The café was cute inside & out, the barista was friendly, & it's in a super convenient location near the Via rail & bus.

I would say the coffee here is'good', not great which I expected based on the prices & overall vibe the place is trying to give off. That being said it is one of the better places in the city to get a coffee. I would rate it 4 stars based on the coffee & service - again it would've probably been 5 if the prices matched what you receive, however, I would also subtract another due to the fact there are no toilets here please put a warning at the door - I had to rush through my coffee & pastry & cut my time short.

The cappuccino & pastry are delicious & delightful! The matcha latte is a bit too sweet for my taste, but the overall experience was wonderful! I enjoyed it so much that I bought another canelé on my last day.

Definitely the best coffee shop I've ever been in Canada🥹the bean used are all from La Cabra roaster, one of the best roasters in the world! This roaster isn't very common here, so I was pleasantly surprised. 🤭They use V60 smart cup to brew the pour over & the quality is very reliable. The atmosphere inside & outside are both amazing. Specialty coffee enthusiast, please come!!!

Après une course un dimanche matin, c'est l'endroit parfait pour se ressourcer. Si vous arrivez pour 10:30, vous serez heureux de constater que l'équipe aura sortie un plateau de petits pains à la cardamome frais du four.

Un café/boulangerie splendide !

Amazing coffee! One of the best flat whites I've ever had. The basque cheesecake was to die for. Bit pricey but totally worth it.
