Review Summary

Second Cup Café receives mixed feedback, with many customers praising the warm, cozy atmosphere and friendly staff who contribute to a welcoming environment for studying, working, or relaxing. While the quality of the coffee and specialty drinks is frequently highlighted as a positive aspect of the experience, the integration of a food counter within the space has led to concerns regarding conflicting food odors and a limited menu selection. Consistent issues noted in the reviews include reports of long wait times during busy periods due to understaffing, concerns regarding washroom maintenance, and occasional dissatisfaction with specific drink preparations or menu options. Overall, the location is valued for its central location and inviting interior design, though experiences can fluctuate depending on staffing levels and shared service arrangements.

I was shocked after my purchase at this location with a big peace of hard plastic that was in my sandwich 🥪 😐
I almost sallow it.
There was no compensation, no apologies.
Very unprofessional.

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

Went to second cup for my 2nd caffeine fix. Food & drinks were a bit pricey but other than that the service was decent. I like the dining area with 2 floors.

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 😕
