The Toronto Coffee Guide is an independent guide to the coffee shops scene in Toronto.
The goal of the guide is to help readers find the best coffee shops in Toronto. Whether you're looking for the best cappuccino to pair with your Sunday paper or the strongest double shot to get you through your 3:00PM slump, the guide is here to provide you with the best options in the city.
We assess every coffee shop using a 7 point criteria on a scale from 1 to 5 to provide a data-driven rating of each shop. This rating is skewed towards drink quality, with some consideration given towards overall experience.
- Coffee — Quality of the drip coffee or equivalent
- Espresso Based — Quality of drinks made with espresso
- Bean — Quality of the bean being used
- Barista — Skill of the barista when making the drink
- Food — The availability of food options and its quality
- Seating — The availability of seating and its comfort
- Ambience — The overall ambience and aesthetic
We also provide a recommendation on what type of activity this coffee shop is best suited for.
