The Coffee

What is The Coffee? Anchoring the base of the Junction House building at 2732 Dundas Street West, The Coffee brings Brazilian specialty coffee culture filtered through razor-sharp Japanese minimalism to Toronto's west end. Founded by brothers Alexandre, Carlos, and Luis Fertonani, the global concept pairs clean lines, light wood accents, and a tech-forward tablet ordering interface. Seating inside is deliberately sparse with just a few minimalist perches, prioritizing a fast, streamlined grab-and-go flow for neighbourhood locals and commuters.

The Coffee Menu & What to Order The drink program centers on high-grade Brazilian beans dialed into precise espresso classics and creative signature creations. The runaway favourite is the Iced Ichigo Matcha, which layers grassy Japanese green tea over sweet house-made strawberry compote. If you prefer coffee-forward sips, order the Nutty Latte—a rich mix of espresso, chocolate, hazelnut, and steamed milk—or the True White for a clean, balanced flat-white experience. Dairy alternatives like oat milk are readily available for almost every hot or iced pour.

Know Before You Go This is strictly a counter-service and mobile-order operation where table reservations do not exist. Expect short lines during peak morning rush hours from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., though service moves rapidly thanks to the digital ordering system. The cafe is easily reached via the 40 Junction or 30 High Park bus routes along Dundas Street West, with street parking available along adjacent side streets.
