He was passionate about the food/drinks, energetic & treated everyone with respect & kindness.

I had their panini & which was simple in its parts but delicious nonetheless. Recommend to anyone looking to grab quick drinks or some hot sandwiches.

Since moving to the mile end a year ago I’ve been on the hunt for the best coffee in the neighbourhood as there’s lots to choose from. I stumbled upon Novanta during the ice storm back in March because they were the only coffee place open. Now I can’t go anywhere else! The kind staff, the quality of coffee, & the atmosphere make Novanta a 10/10!
