This was probably the best coffee I've had in Ontario. I ordered the iced matcha latte and although I'm not a fan of green tea I... loved it! I even ordered another regular iced latte and that was wonderful too. The baristas and cashiers were absolutelywonderful and kind and made us feel so welcome with their warm smiles. The baristas definitely knew what they were doing as thequality of the coffee was noticed (latte art was beautiful too!) We also had their date squares and they tasted wonderful aswell! Would definitely recommend checking them out, everything was great! Read more
Great atmosphere, beautifully decorated coffee shop. Nice patios in the front and the back. Coffee is delicious and there?s a... wide choice of sweets including cookies, tarts and my personal favourite, chocolate croissant. They even have sandwiches, juicesand sodas. Read more
A must-stop on any visit to Stratford. Whether picking up a quick pick-me-up or having a much needed break from haunting the... shops (like Banquo and Macbeth), this iconic coffee shop will have you covered. It is centrally located in town and has a nicesmall patio to watch other tourists meander along the street. They offer a vast array of pastries and standard coffee options,as well as a number of take home products. I have been coming here for over 20 years and the service has remained exceptional.Don't be surprised if you have a Canadian celebrity sighting here now and again (looking at you Peter Mansbridge).

My husband and I have been going to Balzac's for YEARS in Toronto-- it's our favorite coffee shop! Visiting Stratford for the... first time, we made sure to visit this location because this is where it was founded. We picked up some drinks to go for theroad trip home. As well as a few cans of ground espresso. They had a pretty good selection of Balzacs coffee on the wall! Decorwas really cute! They had a few shelves with vintage coffee tins and Stratford themed posters. Read more
The best coffee I've ever had. I just love their café nordique with carrot cake and it's the best combination.I don't mind... driving 45 minutes to get there for my coffee. I just love it so much. Also, a review is incomplete without mentioning theirstaff. Wonderful staff and very positive vibes inside the cafe. Can?t wait to sit there and have coffee again. Read more
Having come to Stratford for a day trip and having several coffees through out the day, this coffee shop is the shop to wait in... line for. Super customer service and the 'farmer roast' was a coffee flavour that was not familiar to me. Something that hadme stunned and questioning if I enjoyed it or not. In the end I still think about the coffee and the delicate flavours it had. It was decadent. #locguides Read more
I was visiting Stratford for the festival. Found this place while walking in downtown Stratford. There was a massive line up... which showed us this place must be good. So glad we went inside, the coffee was phenomenal! Will definitely visit again wheneverI am in Stratford! Read more
