Leslieville’s most-loved café from local legends Pilot Coffee Roasters has a very unassuming front patio that’s an extension of the café inside (after all, the front of the place opens up just like a car garage.) It’s very Manhattan, but also an ode to the trendiness of Toronto’s east end. Spend an hour there, and you’re guaranteed to see a person from every walk of life pass by –the mother with her baby, the freelancer, the international folks.
Caffeinate: A daily dose of caffeine can help reduce stress and the added energy can help you start your day off on the right foot. Try sipping on some steamy happiness at Te Aro where coffee is an art-form. Located in Leslieville, Te Aro is all about providing dreary commuters with their daily perk. The coffee shop serves a double-shot of beautiful and delicious espresso-based mocktails in a welcoming atmosphere that’s almost guaranteed to put you in a good mood for the rest of the morning.
It’s hard to say what’s more impressive at this Leslieville spot from the folks behind Pilot Coffee Roasters — is it the dense and creamy flat whites or the expansive café interior constructed inside a former auto garage? Coffee beans are roasted on site and complemented with a selection of fresh sandwiches, toasted paninis and house-made baked goods. Coffee aficionados can also pick up a variety of at-home brewing accessories including ceramic drippers, filters and design-oriented grinders.
