  How cute is this joint! A place where they give you food in real china..Ahhhmazing. things I noticed right away were..choices of gluten free items, alternative almond/soymilk options..brass ceiling with Restorating Hardware style light fixtures hanging down, and "Helen Mahler's" photographs for sale enveloping the walls...
  
  I ordered their cheese croissant which was made for tiny petite women (what is up with gigantic size croissants everywhere, our mouths need a bit of resting in the morning if you know what am saying)..it was flaky and fresh, and did I mention petite...
  
  I also ordered an almond milk cappuccino which was on the mild size of strong...so I dunno how many beans died for my cup..but it still woke me up.. so it wasn't bad.
  
  Cost for both items in total under 10 bucks as in round that 9$ right down..
  
  Yes this place has succeeded in igniting my caffeine craving this morning!

  Nice name for a coffeehouse! I like the concept a lot but it's just like every other coffee shop in the city. The portions are pretty small but the coffee is really tasty. They have nice ground beans and fun clothing that can be purchased at their store. There's only a couple of tables and it's usually too full - especially if you want to go for a couple of hours to get some work done!

  The most amazing brownie I've ever had in my life. Made by their own baker from argentina... his moustache was one of champions. This cafe is not only a house of pure joy... but the best coffee shop I've ever been to...

  I tried this place out this morning and I really liked it.  The store service was super fast and coffee extras (honey lots of sugar) etc were great.  :). I will go back.

  Wasn't a fan of their flat white. Beans tasted straight-up acidic (somehow with a bit of a floral note in it?), and a lot of milk is needed to bring it to a drinkable state.
  
  The only redeeming factor are the Gloryhole Doughnuts they sell there on Saturdays. I had completely underestimated them (they're kind of small compared to a regular Timmies donut) BUT OH MY GOODNESS are they DAMN GOOD. Purchased a salted caramel donut and my life was forever changed. Perfectly fried dough (light and airy, and not greasy in the slightest) with a caramel pastry cream (very smooth, creamy and not too sweet). It came topped with a caramel glaze, and a couple flakes of sea salt - not so much that you were overwhelmed with a salty flavour, but just enough to reign in the creaminess of the pastry cream and offset the sweetness of the caramel glaze. I've been having dreams about that doughnut, it was so good. And I don't even usually like salted caramel things!
  
  Would not come back again for their coffee, but I am glad it introduced me to Gloryhole Doughnuts! Now THAT'S a place I wouldn't mind visiting again!
