I happened upon one of Cafe Plenty’s four locations when on a walk in my midtown neighbourhood and knew right away I’d be popping in pretty often! Not only do they have delicious coffee and delightful baked goods, but they also stock a solid selection of Canadian-made food and drink products. From pistachio chocolate nut butter to peach prosecco sparkling jam and beautiful bottles of apple cider, it’s definitely a challenge to walk out of this cafe with just your coffee.
Since 2011, they've been on a mission to bring people together through really good food and coffee, and they’ve certainly succeeded. With their spaces being so bright and welcoming, you can’t help but feel somewhat at home in them. Being there even made marking exams more manageable for me, especially thanks to snacking on one of their signature s’mores bars while doing so!
Although I frequent their midtown location, I’d also suggest either visiting their Dundas West location near the Eaton Centre, where their full range of food is available!
