A decent spot, not too exceptional or cool in any way. A typical Toronto coffee shop in the sense that they had very uncomfortable seats (see the pictures). Their tables were small so you can’t have too many things out at once, if you’re a multitasker who reads 2 books while making notes and also has a laptop out.

Not too sweet lots of nuts and there was two versions when I was there a peanut butter and a chocolate peanut butter and the chocolate peanut butter was not overly sweet it was very nice. I did get a Americano and it was OK but I went back the next day as I was in the neighbourhood to get more energy balls. The café itself was full of people doing work at the tables. it’s pretty spacious but busy I would just go back for the energy bars. They have other things as well I think some breakfast sandwiches and croissants but I...
