Propeller Coffee Co.

What is Propeller Coffee Co.? Occupying a sprawling industrial brick warehouse at 50 Wade Avenue, just off the Lansdowne and Geary corridor, Propeller Coffee Co. is one of Toronto's cornerstone specialty micro-roasters. The space functions as an eco-conscious roasting headquarters, daytime tasting bar, and community hub outfitted with polished concrete floors, vintage factory timber, and open communal seating overlooking the active roasting floor.

Propeller Coffee Co. Menu & What to Order The counter showcases meticulously sourced single-origin coffees pulled alongside signature house profiles like the citrus-forward Ace Espresso and full-bodied Turbo Espresso. Pour-over drinkers should order whatever single origin is currently on the brew bar, while warm afternoons call for their slow-steeped house cold brew. Drinks pair naturally with dairy alternatives like oat and almond milk alongside a tight pastry case loaded with fresh croissants, cookies, and vegan baked goods.

Know Before You Go Seating is entirely first-come, first-served, offering plenty of daytime laptop space during the week, though communal tables fill up quickly with remote workers and locals by mid-morning. The cafe is situated a short two-minute walk from Lansdowne subway station with street parking along Wade Avenue. Note that the roastery cafe winds down by mid-afternoon and occasionally adjusts weekend hours to accommodate private roastery events.
