Jinks Art Factory

Sitting at Jinks Art Factory has become part of my routine. I got very lucky in being made welcome here, and being accepted as part of the family. It is a gathering, a coming together, a sense of belonging Jinks has elevated the sense of being at home to near-mystical levels. The togetherness here is palpable even in the COVID world I have been accused of being a social person, and being here makes it easy. I just have to sit here, everyone comes to me. If no one comes, Sara and Jen are always good company; they're still here, I hope they stay for many years. It doesn't matter whether I am sitting out front, basking in the sunlight, with a coffee and a cigarette, or grabbing a coffee to go. Regardless of what I do here, that feeling of belonging is constant. Surrounded by art, music, wonderful company, and that intangible feeling, it would be impossible to not be content. And their outdoor setup these days is actually quite delight.

Amazing little coffee shop. Very friendly staff who are always interested in a friendly chat. Secondly, Jen, the tattoo artist, has done much of my work and always does a great job and offers touch ups if needed. My cat tattoo she drew herself is by far my favorite and my most complimented. Keep up the great service!!

Good coffee. Friendly staff (no over exaggerated high energy, which is great). Mellow, nice furniture. Enjoyed my BLT.

Great coffee and sandwich shop. The tattoo work i have seen is of quality also. The Sister owners are fun and pleasant to be around and staff is great too. Always interesting art on the walls and a supporter of local talent. They remember everyones name kinda place.

This place is the best! Service is great, Food is on point (esp weekends ) Also kudos to the awesome staff! I've also received a tattoo here, from Jen! She did an astounding job and I'm more than pleased! Can't wait for my next :) Keep up the good work ladies and gent.

Great coffee and homemade cookie enjoyed sat in front of shop. Love their super cool retro looking espresso machine! Inside the cafe had a relaxed atmosphere with staff and regulars chatting to each other. Single clean mixed sex restroom.

Delicious coffee and sandwiches with a sweet selection of snacks. This place is just right to sit in and get some work done or read. Also... grab a tattoo. A little pricier (definitely tattoo dependent) but Jen, the artist, was spot on. Clean, kind, and had a sweet set up at the back of the cafe.

I don't know the story of their coffee beans but they make the most luscious and delicious Americano. The staff and owners are amazing people. Some of the art presented there will blow your mind away and it is always changing. This business shines like a diamond in Parkdale. You should try their coffee if you have never been here. I am certain you will enjoy it.
