Great coffee and the unexpected feeling of walking into someone’s family room await you at Bisogno in the Sherbourne & King neighbourhood.  If you’re in need (the store’s name in Italian) of a fantastic cup of espresso, look no further. -Christie

“Please don’t bother asking, just bring me an Americano” Christie told me early on. I understood as she and I make up the coffee lovers portion of In Good Order.

My days trekking to Ryerson’s Interior Design school introduced me to this Toronto’s boutique coffee shop tucked in a side-street off of Church.

Owner/barista Stuart Ross takes his coffee very seriously. I had my first art coffee here and I was hooked. The flavour doesn’t compare to a franchise coffee, it’s more complex, smooth, heavenly! Try the “Bulldog” or a Bavarian Chocolate Latte. – Heather

Who knew that this would one day exist in the Junction? For the coffee purists out there, you are my people, and I urge you to make the trip. Double/Double is not the language spoken in these parts, in fact I don’t think they even serve drip coffee. – Christie

My new favourite place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee or a French press shared with a friend is this cute spot on Dupont Street. In the summertime, look for their lovely, leafy backyard patio down the lane next door. A second location now on Dundas Street West at Trinity-Bellwoods Park. – Christie
