Long-Distance Indie Coffee Date #17. [Te Aro Roasted] - Leslieville

Hey Everyone!

So, since I've been concentrating so much on my Toronto Bucket List, I have completely let go on blogging about all the coffee shops I visited to complete my Indie Coffee Passport which ended in March 2011! For those of you who are new to the "Long-Distance Indie Coffee Date" posts, then please refer back to this blog post to give you all the details!

Now, I'll stop wasting time and get right back into it!!

Indie Coffee Shop: #17

Te Aro Roasted 



Neighbourhood: Leslieville 

Drink Ordered: Mocha! (They use REAL yummy melted chocolate]


I also purchased a cranberry oatmeal cookie. Can't remember the exact name now since it was so long ago! But I remember it being VERY delicious! 


Size: Perfect. Just perfect!! Lots of seating, and in the summer time they have a patio with benches out front. Lots to choose from. The space is located in, what looks like, an old auto shop. It has tall ceilings, and lots of natural lighting, thus seating is not an issue. Everywhere is a great spot! 



Menu: Lots of different coffee blends to choose from since they roast their own coffee beans! I have visited on another occasion and had a French press. Also very good. They have everything espresso based, plus teas, etc. They have everything your little caffeine heart desires!  I totally recommend trying out their cookies and mocha. Especially the mocha since it's made with real fancy chocolate and many places just use powders! 



Atmosphere: Chill. Laid back. I'm sure I've mentioned Leslieville before in other posts. It's a very community based neighbourhood, and very laid back. It's artsy and family friendly. I felt really comfortable here! 

Overall: Te Aro Roasted is a fantastic coffee shop. It has everything a coffee shop needs and they do it perfectly. They know everything about coffee beans, they roast their own, the space is great, service awesome. I love this place! 

Date Potential: 10/10 Hearts: 

Great For: Families, Friends, Studying (they have wifi)

5/5 Smiles
