Blueberry+Earl grey+Matcha

That's one drink. It's on the board with a lychee americano and a cereal milk latte, and it is the reason people cross downtown instead of going to the place beside their office.

Four you can't order anywhere else

Blueberry+Earl grey+Matcha

The one the reviews keep naming. Order it iced the first time.

Matcha+Tonic

Sharp, green, fizzy. The summer answer, and the drink that tells you the matcha is good.

Lychee+Americano

Sounds wrong. Isn't. It's the one to bring a skeptic for.

Cereal milk+Latte

Exactly what it says, and sweeter than the rest of the board.

Beside the drink

The case, seasonally

Matcha chocolate chip cookies Croissants Scones Seasonal cakes

Locally sourced where it can be, baked to the season rather than to a permanent menu — so the correct question at the counter is "what's in today."

Why people stay three hours

Upstairs, with outlets

The seating goes up a level, and reviewers mention the outlets often enough that it's clearly a design decision rather than an accident. Bring the laptop, bring the group project, bring the friend you haven't seen since March.

$10–20 a person buys a drink, something from the case, and as long as you want.

Where it is
One Victoria
1 Victoria St S, Unit 1

Ground floor of the One Victoria building at the corner of Victoria and King, two minutes from the ION stop. Seating continues upstairs.

Hours move with the season — the live ones are on the Google listing, which is the honest place to send you rather than printing a number that goes stale.
