I got the matcha & it was the best matcha I've had in a cafe in the mile end/plateau. It was big & used a good amount of quality matcha. There is so much seating, good internet, outlets, beautiful terrace & lots of food options. Highly recommend! There is clearly a lot of love & effort put into this place

J'ai tout aimé, le co-propriétaire est tout simplement charismatique! C'est lui qui nous a servi! Nous avons appris que ca ne faisait pas longtemps qu'ils ont ouvert!

Cafe Tenini vient des 2 prénoms des propriétaires ensemble 😇

J'ai pris un espresso glacé avec un peu de lait d'amande & un thé glacé pêche-gingembre de la marque Camellia Sinensis, tout simplement délicieux!!!! La marque de thé Camellia Sinensis fait partie des meilleurs & ils ont plusieurs choix à offrir sur leur menu ( matcha, camomille, thé vert,…) l'espresso est de qualité, si vous aimez le café moins fort le latté glacé est parfait!

Je pouvais prendre du lait d'avoine ou d'amande à la place du lait 3%, une femme comblé !

Ils ont une petite terrasse a l'arrière tout simplement adorable, expérience intime & en nature avec les arbres!

C'est certain que j'y retourne! Je conseille a tout le monde 😇 donnez leur de l'amour, il le merite, ils travaillent très fort 🤗

After multiple visits since their opening, I'm here to provide a detailed review of Café Tenini:

You enter the cafe to find a clean & warm aesthetic, a perfect place to get a coffee & socialize with friends or treat yourself to a generous homemade lunch.

With accommodating staff & fair prices, they offer a variety of salads, sandwiches, pastries (both savoury & sweet), desserts, & a hot lunch special everyday.

Their ever-expanding menu has something for everyone with vegetarian & vegan options- even offering alternative milks at no extra charge!

They have a standard menu of coffee based drinks, teas, hot chocolate, chai, matcha, london fog, smoothies & cold beverages. Additionally, they offer Greek style frappes & freddo espressos & cappuccinos.

The musical atmosphere is a relaxed vibe in the early mornings, & picks up the pace with more energy in the afternoons.

There's two private unisex bathrooms, which are very clean.

They have outdoor seating available in front, on their patio & a picnic table. They are currently doing renovations for a backyard terrace which should be completed sometime in May (dog friendly with shade from the trees).

I've enjoyed every visit- definitely 5/5 stars from me!
