Sweat And Soda

Sweat & Soda is a sweet, little (but not so little) cafe on Queen East. I came here after I saw all the gramworthy interior on ig and I was glad I paid a visit! I found their prices to be rather average, drinks at least, since I haven't tried their food. I ordered a London Fog, which is a brewed tea with steamed milk and a dash of vanilla and it came to $4 +tax which is more or less the price charged at Starbucks and local cafes. It was a bit too sweet for my tastebud and it would be nice if there would be an option to customize the amount of vanilla next time! I also noticed that they had kimchi and other Korean dish ingredients in their food items - fusiony but also had authentic sides to it, turns out one of the owners are a Korean lady! Overall, no complaints, down to come back to try out food items and take pictures (again, love the garage door and bike decor) even though it is a bit off from the Yonge line!

Such a unique place! Certainly about healthy food choices. A nod in design to the 50's but still very current. Some cool choices with unique and delicious wraps. Lots of coffee options. I did find it a bit pricey, but no more than Starbucks. If I lived in the area, I would make frequent visits! I liked the fact they have a place for local business to advertise with their cards, and well laid out and not messy. The person behind the counter on Sunday (Mother's Day) was so friendly but in an easy going manner. A seating area in back, a bit tight, but lots of seats.

This is a place that is always friendly and inviting. Invoking the feeling of the neighborhood gathering spot. It's comfortable and quiet enough to hold professional meetings and the food is excellent and thoughtfully put together. The drinks and healthy shake options, (of which there are many) are delicious. The staff is always willing to add and offer substitutes to the order if there are allergy or dietary requirements or restrictions. They have these great roll up garage doors that make the whole place feel like an indoor patio. I highly recommend this spot. And I believe local businesses as great as this spot should always have the support of the neighborhood even if only for the occasional meal or coffee.
