I've just moved downtown and have been looking for independent businesses that offer excellent food (flavour and ingredients), a warm space, friendly service, and great drinks. Berkeley Cafe serves up this combination as effortlessly as its incredible croissants.So far, I've had their drip coffee (that's what I always have), their breakfast croissant with bacon, egg, and cheese (the croissant was incredible), and their Philly Cheese Steak sandwich (pictured). The owner is kind, patient, welcoming, and knowledgeable. He also clearly cares about the food, which makes you care about it too.I see myself being a regular, unlike Berkeley Cafe's excellent fare, which is a fine exception to bump into unexpectedly.

My friend and I went into Berkeley Cafe during lunch hours on a Tuesday and the place was already packed with people making their orders or waiting for their food.We decided to both try out the grilled chicken sandwich and iced lattes. Since there were too many customers, the man (not sure if it was the owner) who took our order told us to get a seat while they make our food. We were a little nervous that they might have forgotten our order but we only had to wait for around 10 mins before he took the food to our table. We were quite surprised because this was the first time where we ate before we paid and we weren’t even being rushed to finish our meal. The man was so nice that he even asked us how our food was.I think this cafe is definitely a local favourite as people were coming and going the entire time. The service was impeccable and we also felt very welcomed during our visit.

Lovely cafe with very friendly owners/workers. Ordered the chopped sandwich and almond cookie which were both delicious. Service does take a bit longer, but I don’t mind as it reminds me to slow down. Will definitely be coming again!

I've been going to the Berkeley St Cafe (on the Esplanade) for over a year. I sometimes meet friends there for coffee or lunch and the proprietor Sean is very welcoming. The coffee is always good - and not expensive! And I'm often surprised by the menu, which offers a variety of delicious light and hearty dishes. It's well priced too. I recently enjoyed a coffee from the Berkeley during a warm day while sitting at one of its outdoor tables. From under the shade of a tree, I could see an outdoor photography exhibit, put on by the arts hub next door, and hear in the background kids laughing and playing at the nearby school. Highly recommend this spot!

An absolute gem of the neighbourhood. I walked in for a bite to eat and work and fell in love with the Cobb salad there. This is definitely loved by the locals as the owner knows all the regulars names and orders. A great place to work, people watch, and just enjoy.

Baked goods baked in house and fresh made breakfast sandwiches served in this very cute family owned joint. I had the egg, cheese and sausage croissant which had JUST come out of the oven. Delicious breakfast :) Bring your own cup to get a refill of coffee!

I like this spot. It’s conveniently located close to the Toronto Distillery District and they have a very nice front patio. The atmosphere of this sweet spot is very pleasant and the moment you walk in you’re greeted with the pleasant aroma of what must be delicious food. All I had was a coffee, but I got to say, the server was courteous and considerate. He asked if my buddy and I could wait for a few minutes while he made a fresh pot of coffee for us. Service, right?? Now that’s what makes a big difference in business. I highly recommend this spot and as Arnold would say, “I’ll be back.”

The BEST falafel sandwich I've ever had. Breakfast options are also great. Only complaint is that their to-go cups tend to leak (especially with tea). I was working nearby for a week and it was my favourite spot to grab breakfast or lunch.

Popped in looking for a tea and a place to sit before a meeting. Found a great little Cafe in this part of town.The tea was excellent. They've got the standard Higgins & Burke, but they've also got this lovely selection of imported herbal teas and you owe it to yourself to try one they are absolutely delicious and I can't wait to come back and buy a box!Grabbed a bagel as well while I was there, no complaints, I got it hot and fast and the cream cheese was the perfect amount and texture.Interior is cute, and there's a nice little seating area outside under a tree for some shade.Can't wait to come back again next time I'm in the area

Sean and team run one of the best cafes in the city! Great vibe on the weekend for a cup of coffee or one of their delicious sandwiches.Highly recommend the chopped cheese - was told about it by several friends before coming here and it was worth the hype.
