Propeller Coffee

Just what I was looking for while bopping around for a cafe to do some writing in! Loved all the huge tables with loads of seating. The espresso was so divine. You can tell that they really care about their craft here. And it’s awesome to see all the roasting equipment right there in the cafe! Would definitely come back and try more bevies :)

Extremely low-quality coffee — very disappointing 😞 The hand brew was poorly done, wasting both time and coffee beans. The staff had a terrible attitude. When I asked which beans they would recommend, he couldn’t even be bothered to explain and just told us to read the packaging ourselves. Much more disappointing than expected. I won’t come back, nor would I recommend this place to anyone. Totally not worth it. There are plenty of much better coffee shops in Toronto.

This is my second time at Propeller. The space is great for study or hang out with friends. I prefer medium to light roast in general so their cortado tasted a bit dark for me. I also tried their summer special: iced lavender latte. My husband liked it but I’m not a fan. For me, it feels the lavender syrup is too strong that it totally altered the coffee flavour.

Nice coffee shop hidden and tucked in the alley behind Lansdowne station. Spacious space working or meeting friends.

In an unassuming spot behind an apartment block, Propeller Coffee wowed me. Service was quick and the coffee was great. When packed with people, there's a lively atmosphere, a great spot to get some work done. When there's just a few people, it's quiet and calm. A coffee shop needs a bit of both and I think this place has the right balance. Sitting near the larger warehouse type doors requires wearing your winter jacket, that's my only gripe.

Coffee is M.M.M. Awesome. Pastries and goodies looked awesome but I decided to go for almond chocolate croissant and it was DELIGHTFUL (every bites and sips from heaven). You might be disappointed with the cashier but not the food or the atmosphere.

Propeller Coffee in Toronto is an incredible, not so obvious wedding venue to work at! The space has a modern, industrial vibe with plenty of natural light, creating a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. The open layout allows for creativity, and the minimalist decor lets each couple’s unique style shine through. The venue’s combination of exposed brick, high ceilings, and cozy details makes for beautiful, warm, and intimate shots. The staff is fantastic—super organized, friendly, and accommodating, which always makes the day run smoothly. For couples seeking a trendy, urban space with a welcoming atmosphere, Propeller Coffee is an amazing choice! Highly recommend!

I love Propeller Coffee. B-corp certified, Bullfrog powered, local, and the owners are great! They are fairly light on their roasting profile, so anticipate to step down on the grinder a few as lighter roasted beans are less absorbent. Their approach to roasting is fantastic, the shop is cute, and prices are great
