I absolutely love this space. Great lattes and cappuccinos. Kenny, the owner, is so down to earth. Sam and Wes, her staff, are so friendly. Definitely check out this coffee shop.

Great coffee shop across from Kitchener Market! They have a great vibe, great selection of coffee for purchase, and lots of great drinks! They definitely have something for everyone! Their flavoured drinks are absolutely must tries as well! My favourite was the “coffee 3 ways” where they showcase the same coffee through 3 distinct brew methods. If you are stuck in line waiting for bread, definitely pop in and grab a coffee and a snack! You won’t regret it!

The owners are passionate about the quality of their coffee and will share info to geek out over if you want to chat about the slow brew process or how the pH of the water changes the flavour. I didn't realize a cozy cup could be such an experience. Thanks Sam for the welcoming experience and for a new way of enjoying coffee that I am now obsessed with!!!

Obsessed with their Kyoto black! Such a cool shop and Sam is a wonderful guy to connect with! I also love their beans! Both their decaf and regular have super interesting profiles. Great shop, great branding, great service!

This place is pure magic! The service is always so kind and genuine, the drinks are absolutely delicious, and the owners are truly some of the best humans you’ll ever meet. Every time I walk in, I feel welcomed, cared for, and a little bit brighter than when I came in!

Really cute little coffee shop in DTK. I had the Banana Cream Pie Latte and it did not disappoint. The service was great. It’s very cozy and the decor inside is art. I definitely recommend to check it out.

The best matcha latte and slow drip coffee! Check out the new oat milk and coffee beans. The owners are so friendly and always up for a chat or can tell you all about brewing! Such a nice spot to warm up, cool down and grab something to drink and snack on.
