I Deal Coffee on Ossington south of Dundas is a lovely trendy combination of a coffee shop and a wine bar with a long spacious interior and a nice outdoor patio. A full range of sweet and savoury edibles, and terrific coffees and teas are on offer. There is a wall full of wine bottles that requires further examination later this summer.

I deal coffee has been by far our favourite spot for coffee in Toronto for the past 8 years. All three locations are fantastic, but we tend to frequent the Ossington and Sorauren locations. The coffee beans are produced by the owners, and are perfectly roasted (also by the owners on a weekly basis). I buy our beans for home brewing from here as well. Simply put, their coffee is strong, fresh, and incredible-tasting, not saccharine or full of syrups, chocolate, preservatives, etc. It is exactly what one should be looking for in coffee. Moreover, we love the purposefully minimalist and "faded" decor. It's a friendly, professional, upretentious and chill space that focuses on the quality of the food and drinks they produce. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
As a frequent visitors at cafes in the city, this in one of my favour spots to work from in the morning. Its large oval marble tables are generous for one, easy to share and are at the right height when either sitting bench side or in one of the wooden chairs. With large south and west facing windows, there's a feeling of being outside while in, and being a few steps above ground means you're not easily distracted by the street level goings on. The coffee here always packs a caffeine punch, and with their gluten free and now sandwich and juice selections it's easy to work here and eat something other than a muffin. Staff are friendly, music is great and at just the right volume and most everyone who sits beside you is trustworthy to leave your valuables when you have to sneak away for a bathroom break.
