With its first location by Yonge & Eglinton, another location inside a bedding store on Richmond St. W. and a roastery in North York, this indie coffee brand has quickly become a respected entity in the city. Its Melbourne-trained owners ensure baristas are up to snuff, turning out cappuccinos that taste rich, creamy and balanced.

What this small cafe with two locations on Richmond Street (one on the east side, the other on the west) lacks in seating it makes up for in meticulously made coffee. Using Pilot Coffee beans, the cappuccino is one of Fahrenheit’s specialties, layering espresso, hot milk and foam to produce a wholly satisfying drink.

One of the OG third-wave cafes in Toronto. Half a dozen locations around the city use 49th Parallel or Detour beans to make double shots of bold espresso topped with steamed milk and foam.

Social Coffee Company beans are used to make the capps at the two outposts of this small but mighty cafe in the Junction Triangle, one on Wallace (hence its name) and the other on Dupont.

This cafe a couple blocks from St. Lawrence Market makes a wonderful cappuccino. Try it using the special custom house blend of beans roasted by de Mello Palheta, with its rich chocolate notes that pair perfectly with organic steamed milk topped with beautiful latte art.
