Empire Espresso on College Street in Toronto


Empire Espresso is a neat espresso bar / coffee shop in Little Italy. The place has some cute seating attire and chairs as well as a nice homely feel. Great espresso and Americanos, and some stellar pastries, some of which are unique and delicious such as the Cheddar-Apple Biscotti. There isn't a lot of seating at the moment, but if you get a spot it's a very nice place to lounge at and enjoy the atmosphere over good coffee. The staff is warm and friendly and a great place to check out.

Dark Horse Espresso bar has great Americanos, espressos, lattes, and mocha drinks. There are also some good pastries such as cookies and chocolate cherry scones. The wood floors, big glass windows, tables on the lower area, and nice seating in the upper area make it a great place to stay. It gets quite busy so you can often find it difficult to find a seat, but if you can it's a nice place to lounge and read a paper or magazine. The bathrooms down the hall in the adjacent building are also nice and clean, which is a good touch.
