I love Leva too! Now I own a cafe in downtown Edmonton and I hope you give them (even better MINE) a try Steve. It’s called Caffe Sorrentino Mayfair Village just south of Jasper on 109th. My name is Matt. Drop by and tell me what you think. And welcome to Edmonton!

This is a Toronto-centric article, but keep in mind population density. And quite frankly, having lived in a good chunk of Canada, and visiting most Canadian major urban centres because of work, I think that a lot of the offerings are spot on. But the title is what rankles, I suspect. For what it is worth: the Mercury in Lesleyville makes one of the most incredible lattes I have ever had (I visit there everyone I am in Toronto); the Dark Horse is awesome; so is Sense Appeal on lower Spadina. Love the Goat, Crema, Sam James Coffee Bar, Bridgehead & the Goat in Ottawa, Prado in Vancouver and Leva in Edmonton. But still lots more to try, so I view this article as a “cup is half-full” thing … keep experimenting / keep trying out new places.

And lot of vitriol for a pretty good list. Brave to even attempt this, perhaps we should call it some cool coffee shops rather than the best? A great majority of Canadians appear to believe that timmys is serving the perfect cup…

Thanks for the referral to crema on Dundas. A solid cup of coffee, pulled by a server with an appropriate number of tattoos and piercings to make it on your list.

Glanni said Fratello Analog is a destination coffee house. My guess is Gianni also like Tim Horton’s……. you dont have a clue about coffee. You probably take yellow tail wine to parties. Need I say more.

I can think of at least 20 coffeehouses in Calgary better than Higher Ground, which serves Canterbury industrial coffee swill made on a superuto. No better than Starbucks. Good to see deVille and P&S (the gold standard for Canada) on this list but anybody with ANY taste in coffee would put Caffe Rosso, Chiasso, Insomnia, Gravity, Fratello Analog, Caffe Crema, or even any of the Good Earth chain above the crap they call coffee at Higher Ground.

Listing every great coffee house in Canada is more than a one page spread so I’ll forgive you missing all of my favourites…but I will suggest adding my #1 -
The Smoking Waters cafe and gallery in Fairmont Hot Springs, B.C.
Freshly baked cinnamon buns, great drinks, beautiful wine, excellent decor (new artists cover the walls every month, including the washroom), and a fantastic patio looking out over the valley and mountains.
Its only a 5 minute drive from two golf courses and the pools, and they are featuring an amazing photographer this month!
Ok, that last bit is about me.
