Their dark roast was exceptionally strong, similar to stove-top espresso rather than traditional drip coffee, but it was still surprisingly smooth. If you prefer to add milk or cream to your coffee, be prepared to add more than usual to achieve your desired coffee-to-dairy ratio because of its bold flavor.

I recently purchased a tourtière, chicken pot pie, a loaf of honey raisin bread, fruit ketchup, and a selection of individual desserts for a dinner party and everything was fantastic. Despite being located on the Ottawa campus in a rather odd location, I truly hope they succeed. For first-time visitors, I highly recommend trying the chocolatine (chocolate croissant).

I handed her a toonie and set a five-dollar bill on the counter, and she chose to leave the nickels and dimes in front of me. When she did that, she asked me, "How do you like it?" Honestly, I was taken aback because I had just given her my change directly. This behavior feels petty and suggests that the employee might need to consider a different career or that the working conditions could be improved.
