WFM Coffee Bar

A consistently good latte and at $4.20 it is also a more reasonable option in the area. I also like that they’re open in the morning for a post-workout drink! They also sell some baked goods, snacks and drinks like Greenhouse juices. The have places to sit with USB charging ports.

Had a cardamom latte which was delicious, and the order for my high maintenance guest was made to perfection. The best part however was the barista who was warm and patient. When a homeless woman came in, she treated her with compassion and dignity as she gave her a coffee - as if she was an regular, affluent Yorkville client. Heartwarming to see.

Got a cold brew there. It tasted alright. But the cup leaked everytime I took a sip. Their iced cup lids don't fit well. Would've preferred not to wear half my coffee. Don't recommend it unless you're wearing a waterproof poncho you don't mind getting coffee all over. Really made that afternoon less pleasant.

As a huge juice/smoothie fan, having worked at a similar bar back in Australia for a number of years with epic enthusiasm I was a bit underwhelmed by my experience here. Sure the place was clean and the Apple Ginger Zip would have put a spring in my step had the bloke in the purple beanie serving me not been a real wet blanket. From the moment I entered, to having my order taken/presented and to the moment I left, he did not smile once. Thought maybe it was me, but the other 5 customers who came in after me didn’t get a smile either. He just looked like even hell would have been a better place to be on a Saturday afternoon. Sure, the guy might have some personal stuff going on or whatever, I don’t know, but it brought the vibe in the crashing down around my ankles and in a Canadian winter that’s the opposite of what I want buying an innocent refreshment. Cheer up son, life’s not that bad.

Great coffee and wonderful muffins. Staff were helpful and attentive.
