% Arabica — Restaurant in Toronto

This is a new coffee shop in Yorkdale that's essentially take out only. You wait in line, put your order in, and pick up your order.

Problem is that the coffee is $6.50. when you think of a coffee shop, you think of a nice place to sit down with your friend or partner, have a nice chat, and ordering a coffee. There are great coffee shops all around Toronto that offer this for the same or less the price of this new % shop but with way more of an experience. You're spending the same $ or more on a somewhat decent coffee but not getting the same experience out of a coffee shop.

This fantastic coffee chain from Kyoto has finally opened in Canada, and the wait is worth it. Yes, the location is small and there is still a lineup to get in, but you have to expect that if you’re going during peak hours. It’s a well known and beloved coffee chain.

Whenever I’m in Yorkdale, I make sure to take the time to stop in here and get a latte, or just a quick espresso shot....

I was wandering through the mall with a craving for an espresso macchiato when I stumbled upon a sleek, modern coffee shop buzzing with energy. The design immediately caught my eye—clean lines, warm lighting, and a crowd that suggested something special was brewing inside.

As I stepped in, I was greeted by an uplifting atmosphere and a beautifully curated display of coffee beans from around the world. The attention to detail in both the layout and decor added to the store’s charm.

The baristas were clearly passionate about their craft. My macchiato was expertly made—rich, balanced, and exactly what I had hoped for. It’s rare to find a place that nails both the coffee and the vibe, but this one did.

I’ll definitely be returning. This spot has earned a place on my...
