After our delightful brunch at Buca, my friend and I decided to have coffee elsewhere but still within the Yorkville area. To keep with the theme of trying out new places, I remembered I've always wanted to go inside the Nespresso Boutique Bar on Cumberland Street! And it was an excellent choice! Nespresso Boutique Bar provides a unique customer service experience by turning a coffee shop into a one-stop locale for people to check out their sleek coffee machines, stock up on their wide array of coffee flavors and relax and unwind in their ultra-luxe lounge. The 14,000-square foot café and retail space stands out from the already-saturated coffee shop market in Toronto. When every corner downtown is littered with Starbucks, Tim Horton's or Second Cup, Nespresso pulls out all the stops with its stylish décor and personalized service. Finally, no more self-serve! Once seated, we were offered a glass of water with a slice of lemon. After a quick perusal of their menu, I found that aside from pastries, coffee and desserts, they also offer sandwiches. We ordered hazelnut cappuccinos and half-dozen assorted macarons. The café also operates at a reasonable price range for their food and beverage. Compared to Starbucks and their overpriced lattés, Nespresso Boutique Bar is still a bit pricier. However, I can say the cost is totally worth it as I was totally amazed with the quality of the interior design, service and food. If only there are more Nespressos across Toronto, I would never want to set foot at any Starbucks again!
