Unfortunately, they don't accept cash. I don't know how they can refuse to accept cash. The cashier who informed me was nice and friendly but I was shocked that I couldn't get a latte because I didn't have a credit card or debit card with me. 'cash not accepted' How is this allowed?!
Since I wasn't able to purchase anything, it led me Three Doors Down to a Cafe that accepted cash and where I enjoyed their lovely latte.

Guess what I got here. I got RIPPED OFF! 10$ for a small cold brew and an oat cookie! Wtf! I guess I just paid for their next As Seen On TV appearance. The coffee too was.... Bleugh. It had a Spice aftertaste and not in the good way.
Should have just got a tiny drip coffee and ran away from this literal hole in the wall before they charge for sniffing the aroma.

They have the best cold brew ever!! Please don’t add milk or sugar to it, try it black and enjoy the smoothness and fruit notes in it 🤍
Having parked at the Blue P north of here last week, I walked out of the lot heading south immediately seeing a billboard proclaiming "Best Coffee Ever", which also claims CNN, CP24 and many other such TV sources. As a coffee lover, having travelled all over the world, I've had some really fine coffee, so I was definitely up to trying this.
On recommendation after having asked about the choices, I ordered up an Americano, which is made from their "HotBlack Blend" and the rest is history as they say. The coffee lived up to the claim. Its a really good cup. Equal to the varieties I bring in from the USA and Italy. So much so, when heading back, I bought a bag of the HotBlack Blend beans, to have it at home, as this is not an area I tend to frequent, as in years can go by infrequent.
The beans made the same exact wonderful coffee. (I've bought two more bags today). And being back in the area today, grabbed another cup...and still as perfect as the first one.
The service is exceptional, the barista answers questions with a smile, and made the wonderful coffee I had on both visits.
Don't be tempted to go to Tim Hortons' or Second Cup nearby. This beats them both. And same price or less.
Up until this, I bought coffee from Italy and the USA (having it shipped in). Yes, expensive, but now I have a local favorite.
Oh, and on occasion, I tend to make a latte with some Cinnamon at home. Cinnamon loves this blend and enhances the overall flavor, which I was pleasantly surprised by, as the cinnamon isn't really a good mix with many other coffees I buy. So yet another bonus.
HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED!!

I was looking for vegan treats after eating vegan Indian meal in the neighbourhood, and noticed that this cute little coffee shop had some. I appreciate that the treats were displayed in the window, where they take your order and give you the food. This is a take-out only coffee shop. So, the vegan treats available at that time were:
1. Strawberry oat bar
2. Beet chocolate loaf
3. Banana bread (vegan & gluten free)
4. Date square
I purchased one of each and they were nice. My favourite was the strawberry oat bar. It was chewy, sweet with a bit of tang and ginger flavour. Second favourite was the Beet chocolate bar, it was like a brownie, dense but soft and chocolatey. The banana bread was a a bit dry, due to it being gluten free, and it tasted very mild. It was okay. The date bar was underwhelming. It was not as sweet as I was expecting; it tasted rather flat. The crumbs on the date square were on the saltier side. Overall, I am grateful they have vegan treats options 😊

Tiny little window coffee shop with amazing Raspberry Jam Cookies!
Flat white and cappuccino are really nice.
I wish there was a place to sit down to actually enjoy all these good things but other than that this is a must try place

We enjoyed stopping by this coffee shop while we were biking around Toronto. We got stuck in the rain, so we had to stand under the overhang, but it was still worth it. Great service—the barista let us try some tasty cold brew!
