This spunky spot is cool, but it maintains warmth through big, sunny windows and lots of plants. If you sit in the sun and squint your eyes until they’re totally closed, it feels like it’s summertime. Get a delicious cookie while you’re in.

Field Trip

Older sibling to Agenda, Field Trip is tucked up a little sside street, just off of Bloor. Once the snow starts to melt, you can enjoy your java on their patio, bundled up in your coat and mitts. It’s a very hygge experience.
