I'm a long-time customer of this café & i like the new look after the renovation. The interior design has improved a lot & the atmosphere feels really nice now. The staff are friendly, helpful, & always smiling. I really enjoyed my coffee & dulce de leche cake on a very cold day. recommended ✨

Short in stuff. At the morning rush time there is only one person working & for a simple coffee you need to wait for 10 minutes

Extremely disappointed with my visit. I ordered filter coffee, & they served me a single shot with hot water, claiming it was filter coffee. The quality was terrible, & they were blatantly dishonest about it. The place also smelled like onion & food, making it impossible to enjoy coffee. I will never come here again & definitely won't recommend it!'

I learned today that this location does not receive online orders; so, be mindful of that.
You can always count on Delsah & Kayla; amazing service & with a smile!
PS: the place has become a restaurant as well: Quesada. My review is for the coffee shop which is not the traditional Second Cup anymore 😕

There was a continual small line because there was only one person working.

The place itself was very clean.

The restrooms are downstairs & you need a code to get in. The ladies room was clean but the men's room was not!

The coffee was mid & weak so if you prefer it that way then you win, lol!

The cafe & the coffee itself are not bad, the service however isn't ideal. There was a cashier who was significantly rude. Maybe she was under pressure, this being a busy location, but she was quite uncivil.

Need a place for your backpack? You have found it! Stop by for good coffee & nice snacks. It's a nice spot to study as well!

I usually love Second Cup but this location is a major miss. The service was awful - two unfriendly baristas took my order, seemingly inconvenienced by the fact that a customer would come in to order a coffee. The coffee was lukewarm & I was instructed to move away from the milk counter, because I was'on the wrong side' even though there was no indication of there being a right or wrong side. Unpleasant experience overall.
