Holt Cafe is racist! I visited the cafe after shopping at Holt,I don't drink so I settled for some Orange Juice & pancakes,the waitress proceeded to tell me they don't have OJ after 11am & that I should perhaps go around to eggspectation(which I love) for some! I was appalled & very disappointed by the incident that I ended up leaving!! I never went back again because I didn't feel welcome! It's unacceptable & I hope that those who are not welcome support businesses that treat them as valuable customers no matter their race!

Located inside Ogilvy (Holt Renfrew), this spot is perfect for a drink or a bite after some luxury shopping. The staff is always friendly, & the drinks are excellent. My personal favorite is the passion fruit cocktail.

The food is also good, including their brunch options. It's the ideal place to sit with a friend, relax, & gossip about life.

Marc Anthony at the bar The drinks are expertly crafted, & the bartender's attention to detail is impressive. The atmosphere is welcoming, making it a perfect spot to unwind. Highly recommended

Terrible service & welcome. The receptionist didn't bother to greet us, & the waiter (Lucas) kept coming to insinuate that it was time to leave 6 times, even though we were a large group of 5 & had only been there for 1.5 hours (each one ordered food from the brunch menu & drinks). Additionally, there was no queue & plenty of empty tables available. The food was okay. The only positive aspect of this place is the aesthetic.

A disappointing visit. I arrived around 3:30, didn’t even get a glass of water until 4. (I asked for it) Ordered a cocktail & it was an average drink.

Servers weren’t bad but not good. I would say save yourself some money & time & go to other places.
