The top 25 new cafes in Toronto by neighbourhood

New cafes in Toronto are serving up carefully crafted caffeine to give you the early morning boost you need or a little extra energy to get you over your afternoon slump. From bubble tea to espresso and orange juice, there is no end to the creative concoctions you can try all around the city.

Here are my picks for the top new cafes in Toronto by  neighbourhood.

Annex

For the Vietnamese coffee fanatics, Cong Ca Phe is the place to go. The first Toronto location of this chain, you can find drinks using traditional Vietnamese flavours and ingredients.
