Review

Drink of Choice: Mocha, $4


This is the third location of i deal coffee that I have been to thus far and is currently my favourite one. Compared to the ones in Kensington and Ossington, the environment of this i deal coffee is much more chic and sophisticated. The furniture actually matches! And there is a cozy fireplace to boot. Everything to do with their coffee operation is still consistent with the other locations. The prices to buy the coffee beans are the same, $16/pound and $17/pound for decaf. They still charge an extra 25 cents if you wish to take your coffee on-the-go. The newest thing they are offering is coffee beans from Cafe Solar. These are fair-trade coffee beans produced with solar energy and harvested by local women in Latin America.

Originally, the store used to be a gelato shop. i deal coffee decided to keep the original gelato freezer and equipment to make gelato. There is no gelato available in the winter but it would be for summer. I really like this concept because it gives customers more options to try something else rather than just coffee.

Gift cards are available for purchase if you would like to get an i deal coffee fan a little something! Minimum $5 on the gift card.
