It's definitely cozy - rustic heritage brick walls, repurposed antique furniture, chandelier, etc...

After a long stint in the penitentiary, it can be difficult to reintegrate into society. Sitting on a hard wooden bench in this cinderblock and concrete coffee shop will help to ease the transition.

I like the look of the comfy chairs.................the green on the exterior is a tad jarring!

Yeah, it was quite a bit nicer when it had a rustic wooden front.

Omigod omigod omigod! My old favourite Second Cup location near St. Lawrence Market that sadly became a cannabis dispensary for a bit is going to be a coffee shop again! Will have to update again once it's open to report on it's "cozy" status.

I'm really excited to see this, too. There's a desert of decent coffee shops in the immediate area of the market. I hope this is the beginning of the end for most of those dreary cannabis shops that blanketed the hood during the pandemic.
I've been to the Mofer down on Queens Quay and Jarvis. I liked it. It has a unique vibe and slightly different coffee from most Toronto third wave places. Lots of seats for hanging out or working etc.

Rdaner is on the ball with a café that can be called cozy without debate! Epos Coffee at Gerard and Parliament as yet another sign this hood is moving along nicely. Taken 27 August.

https://www.instagram.com/epos.coffee/. I’m a big fan of Epos Coffee. I was chatting with the staff who (that day, at least) mentioned they’re from Ukraine, which makes me and my Ukrainian-Canadian wife even bigger fans. And by bringing more sane and sober spenders to the corner of Gerrard and Parliament can only improve things.

And yesterday I was one of them, lingering in their cozy space for over an hour!

Cafe Marallo in Kensington. Funky, cozy and great for freak watching, but since it’s open to the street it won’t be as appealing in winter…

Wanda’s Pie In The Sky, in Kensington. Cozy and bohemian, but could be a bit less grimy for my liking. Spacious. Lots of in-house baked goods.

So nice that there’s finally a nice indie cafe in the heart of St. Lawrence - Mofer. This one checks a lot of boxes - historic building, rustic interior, vibrant street life, and an unbeatable view. The yawning space lacks a certain intimacy however, and there could definitely be some more soft, comfortable seating.
Nice!
