By far my favourite brunch spot in Toronto. They serve all meals, but are well-known for brunch. Lola's prides themselves on a fresh from scratch menu, using naturally raised local meats, fresh organic products and serving only local craft beers. Their menu is also friendly to vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets.

This is the best coffee shop you'll find anywhere in the area, and even considered one of the best in the city. They have a great selection of coffee, juices, and baked goods. The decor is really charming + a great place to set up your mobile office if you want to work in a cafe. I suggest grabbing a seat on one of the couches upstairs to kick back with a good brew. If the weather's nice, grab a table on the patio in the front for some nice breeze + to enjoy the company of the several adorable dogs that often accompany their owners to Rooster.
