Boxcar Social
235 Queens Quay W, Harbourfront
Intended to be a spot to linger over a drink—both caffeinated and alcoholic libations are available—and socialize rather than rush in and out, Boxcar Social offers a menu, décor, and ambiance that make it hard to leave. The tasting flight (three different blends and types of coffee on a tray) is an exciting way to slow down and really taste the nuances in flavor of different blends. Boxcar also offers a short menu featuring breakfast standbys like avocado toast and granola, alongside more inventive items like a particularly delicious ricotta and jam toast for those of us who like our sweet fix before 10 a.m.
