I have grown to like this modern café located on Parklawn between Lakeshore and Queensway. Aside from some difficulty parking at times, the café has come a long way in terms of food quality and service since the first time I was there.The interior is bright white with some black and white images filling a tall wall behind the front counter. The space is very bright and airy with a high ceiling and about 15 tables inside, a community table and a very large patio. There is a lot construction on the area however it has never been a problem on the weekend.The food selection consists of some pre-made and made to order sandwiches soups and some pastries. On my last visit I had the Avenue Western Sandwich and it was probably the best western sandwich I’ve ever had. The eggs were fluffy with pepper, ham and onions and the multi-grain bread was fresh and nicely toasted. The sandwiches are big so you could easily share one for breakfast. You place and order at the counter for food, order beverages and pay for your order at the other end of the counter. They give you a number and bring food out to your table.They have a nice selection of beverages and while I am not totally certain if they have mugs (since every time I’ve gotten a latte it has been in a paper cup) it would be nice to have a latte in a nice mug. That would be my only suggestion for the staff when people are ordering food and beverages to stay.I have also had breakfast at Eden in the area and for a casual breakfast with great sandwiches and eggs, I much prefer Avenue. You don’t have the nice view of the lake as you do at Eden, but the food service and pricing are much better at Avenue.
