Café Alphabet is widely praised as a welcoming, stylish spot with top notch coffee and a diverse menu of Freddo, matcha, and baked goods. The vibe is warm, cozy, modern with a Greek inspired touch, and the space feels both instagrammable and comfortable for reading, working, or socializing. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and generous, creating a strong sense of community and hospitality. While drinks and pastries earn high marks, some reviewers note occasional misses like overly sweet matcha, foam that lacks fullness, or crowds that make seating and pacing rough. There are comments about price being a bit high but fair given quality, and some feedback about neighborhood impact and the need for clearer crowd control. The Freddo and matcha beverages are signature items with particular praise for the creamy foam and smooth textures, and pastries like carrot cake and spanakopita are highlighted. Overall Café Alphabet is described as a standout and a must visit for coffee lovers, with many eager to return and some hoping for broader recognition.
I've been a few times & it's always been popular but ever since they went viral on TikTok it's even busier!! I would avoid weekends bc of that! Decent coffee, cute spot with outdoor seating. I finally tried their freddos (the milk foam), I got the matcha & my friend had the coffee version. They definitely know what they're doing & I love how they give a lil show & make sure you have time to capture them capping the drink with the milk foam! When I had my first sip, it was overwhelmingly sweet but it did balance out after I mixed the entire drink. & then it was overly cream-tasting (which i kinda expected) but I don't recommend if you're lactose intolerant like I am. Still worth checking out if you're in the city!
i visited this cafe on sunday afternoon & it was packed. i got a blueberry scone & an oat latte. i would probably skip the scone, it wasn't my favorite. the latte was good, pretty average. also this place is very loud (they play club type music) & crowded so it wasn't my vibe. however, the people working were kind & getting through orders as quickly as they could. overall, i probably wouldn't visit again but i can appreciate the kind service!
I'm a big coffee drinker & I have to say, this place really hits the mark. The coffee selection is top-notch, & I was particularly impressed with everything. Expertt brewing, very refreshing. The baristas here know their stuff... & clearly passionate about coffee. This isn't just a great place for coffee lovers, it's a great spot to chill & catch up with friends. If you're looking for quality in both your cup & your experience, you'll find it here. Definitely recommend checking it out. ✅
If you love matcha... this IS the place to grt your matcha. If you havent been, try it ASAP. 10/10 !!! Amazing services, atmosphere & vibe. Perfect for summer.

Was my first time going to this cafe. When u first walked in the worker had greeted me super friendly. She was very helpful with what I order. Also other workers were super friendly that they made my day! The drink are super yummy & the interior has great lighting for pictures!! Will be going there often :))
It was extremely busy when we went, but everyone is super friendly despite the fact that it's quite chaotic to handle LOL! I find my matcha too sweet but my sister's coffee was perfect. Would still recommend overall!
We made the mistake of going on a weekend. They have so many orders that my milk got mixed up & I had a rash afterwards. The almond croissant had a nice flavour but it's very soft & mushy. Would suggest to come during a week day for full experience
very nice & cozy cafe! the freddo is pretty good, love the vibe & the owner's friendliness!! we're all from toronto & saw this place on tiktok so decided to come check it out :) would definitely come back if I have a chance 💕
