Pilot Coffee Roasters

Pilot coffee roaster. I like to treat myself to a pilot coffee drink when I am on the east end of the city for work, and it’s what I look forward to. Service is great, coffee is delicious and the pastries are really good too. This past visit, I ordered a flat white and sun-dried tomato danish. Both really delicious, though I would recommend warming up the danish and will do so next time!

The Heritage beans are the best, beans from Brazil and Guatemala. Consistently smooth creamy flat white. I’ve traveled the world - London, Paris, New York, etc but this cafe has my heart. This location specifically is always good.

Good a good ahh mango cream matcha, my car looked nice parked out front while having my cold matcha latte and while reading my books. Super performative cafe rate 10/10 would visit again, 🔜

Great coffee - espresso based drinks. The heritage blend has been my favourite for a decade and I believe that’s what they use. Lots of seating. And some merch for sale.

ive been the biggest fan of the mango sticky rice matcha from pilot for over a month now, adelaide location it was amazing, bloor st locarion also amazingg, but i got 2 of the matcha today from this location and was left soooo disappointed. its basically undrinkable, so many clumps of matcha to point im just eating the clumps and it tastes disgusting, literally had to throw them out, definitely do not recommend this location.

Best Flat White. Great Staff. Bomb Pastries. Good Vibes.

Super disappointed, loved the coffee but I am never coming back- I had noticed the general customer service here had been declining over the last few months but my last visit was so disappointing. I came in with my partner, as it was our routine and I ordered a chocolate croissant and two coffees. The croissant was stale and inedible so I mustered the courage to ask for another (and when I say I NEVER return food, I am serious. It makes me BEYOND anxious but it was really awful and it cost like 6.75.. I honestly believed it was a one off day old croissant. I came in at 7am...no way they could be that stale!!!) and the barista looked at me as if I had personally offended her. She rolled her eyes, and really rudely asked me what I meant by stale, and then insisted I point out exactly which croissant I wanted on the shelf because they were all the same. I said that if they were all the same, and therefore all stale, then I would just take a refund and she again rolled her eyes and made a big scene of it. I was so uncomfortable. I had had prior unpleasant experiences here with baristas being rude...but this was the nail in the coffin for me. There are sooo many coffee shops in the area, I will travel the extra few minutes not to feel like a burden like that.

The renowned pilot roasters lives up to its name Great espresso. Very smooth and perfectly steamed milk. Espresso goes down really nicely that I had to hold back so I could enjoy it longer. Cortado was perfect, which I forgot to snap a pic of and the latte was also on point The place has a minimalist aesthetic and very nice cafe vibe. On nice days, you can sit outside on their patio too They also have their roasts ready along a wall where you can browse that and other coffee paraphernalia Barista was super friendly striking up a convo with my friend and I, which was nice Great job overall!

Another coffee run stop. Not bad. I actually asked for a iced coffee but was charged a iced latte ‍ okay sure. I need the extra carb and caffeine for my run anyways. Nice coffee spot. Good to grab and go for a walk. Except I grabbed, chugged and ran ....perfect! On to the next stop!!!

Great location for Pilot! Similar to their Ossington location, this one offers a large dining room for dine in. Great vibes and service. I enjoyed my lactose-free flat white last week. Highly recommend!

I come here often to get my post-run coffee, it's one of the better coffee spots in the city imo. It helps that the staff are very friendly and kind too. It's quite spacious inside, the ceilings are very high and there's good seating all around. They have an outdoor seating area during the summer, it's chill and relaxing.

First time trying coffee here, the vibes seems pretty cool and the staff were super nice. I got a large iced oat latte ($6) and it was pretty good. Coffee was smooth and strong, service was fast. Would definitely come back!

Good coffee and great customer service. Also a great area to buy a coffee and just walk around. Would return!

No surprises here. Hipster paradise. Coffee is very good. Could easily be half the size inside and create a more interesting vibe. Tips are expected as is the norm these days.

This place is tucked in a little so keep that in mind when you're trying to track it down. It looks like it would be a lovely patio in the summer and the aesthetic inside is so quirky and fun. Nice that they have so many options for beans to bring home and different treats as well. I tried a latte. It was pleasant but it was pretty acidic for what I like. I'd give it another go in the warm weather and maybe try another beverage there.

An absolutely lovely place to relax, have a hot cup of something-or-other and a sweet nibble. We got the opening times of a local shop wrong but that's okay because Te Aro was open to shelter us for an hour or so. Even happier we were able to snag one of the few open seats when we arrived. I had a london fog and shared a breakfast sandwich and a scone. Everything was well made and delicious. The winner of the meal was definitely the scone, I loved the caramel-y crunchy outer layer. The prices are admittedly on the higher side. We could have had a full meal somewhere for the price of two drinks and two snacks, but you get quality food, great ambiance and friendly service. What a perfect way to start the day!

CUSTOMER SERVICE: The staff was very helpful as to what is best to my liking. They were very patient with me and my family which I really appreciate! FOOD: I got the Cortado with a Buffalo Chicken sandwich. The coffee was very nice, smooth, and strong, just one of the ways I like my coffee. The sandwich was very appetizing as well! I would suggest this place for some good coffee, cute area, cozy and modern setting.

VEGAN OPTIONS - Yes They use Pilot roasters coffee. Overall my cappuccino was ok, but not great. Good texture and consistency. Perhaps I just didn't enjoy the beans? I may try this spot again if I'm in the area, but I don't think I would make a special trip here in the future.

In A Nutshell: -Te Aro is a cool little coffee shop that snuggled in the heart of Leslieville aka GTA. -The coffee comes from Pilot Coffee Roasters. -If you want a warm place to bust out your laptop or favorite book, this is the perfect spot to do so. -The staff is very friendly and so are the people who hang out here too. Overall, it's one of Toronto's top-rated coffee spots, so make sure you bookmark it!

My excoworker-turned-friend used to bring me treats from this cafe when we worked together years ago so this place has probably been around for a decade. I think in the last couple of years it was bought out by pilot coffee roasters which is why the menu and merchandise you see at Te aro is the same as other Pilot cafes. Since my friend and i no longer work together, he convinced me to take up running as a hobby with him by luring me with treats from te aro! The many many visits i have paid here are to grab post-running treats and it is the only way i will agree to run 10k+ distances. I usually get their latte and an earl grey vanilla scone or pb chocolate oatmeal cookie. Select baked goods are an additional 40% off to get rid of them in the afternoon before closing but their scones are usually gone pretty early in the morning. Pilot is also the only cafe chain in canada that uses oatly oat milk and is by far the best oat milk out there (oatly is also the OG oat milk brand). Oat milk pairs really well with matcha for those who are looking for dairy and/or coffee alternatives at cafes. One last thing i will mention is that while it isn't listed on the menu, they do offer larger sized drinks for an additional charge. I think it used to be their old "regular" size before Pilot acquired Te Aro.

Cute little cafe and patio. The Earl Grey oatmeal scone was big and hearty. I want to come back to try the oat milk latte, a friend said it's the best!

Best coffee in Toronto. I'm not easily impressed by coffee houses that boast about roasting their own beans. What usually makes or breaks a good coffee before you get to the bean quality is whether the baristas know how to get the ratio of milk right. Te Aro gets it right on all fronts. Beans are not over roasted and baristas don't make common mistakes like overheating milk and using too much of it. The coffee has a bite without being bitter. The cortado is perfect.

Nice looking place with lots of seating. Great espresso. Staff that does the little bit extra. Wifi tested terribly at 5/0 and I didn't see any electrical outlets. The table setup is great for working but come charged up and use your data for wifi. It seems like a good place to grab a coffee in the summer when I'm assuming there must be plenty of outdoor seating.

Te Aro is my favourite cafe in Toronto eastend and the best coffee in Toronto. I usually get a latte or an americano here. They sell variety of delicious baked goods and sandwiches too! It's a very work friendly cafe and a good place to hangout with friends - beautiful interiors and friendly baristas. During the summer they have a outdoors patio where you can enjoy the sun while you drink coffee. It seriously is my favourite coffeeshop in Toronto!

I really enjoy the atmosphere and the vibe at Te Aro. The inside is perfectly lit with warm and inviting lighting... It have to be one of the most quiet coffee place I been to, seems like everyone are whisphering in here... I love that communal table with the bar stool... even if you do come alone, feels like you are not alone sharing some spaces with others... The staffs here are all nice and cheery. The brew is a little stronger than the other places I been to for the Cappuncino I ordered but love the latte art. So pretty to look at....and of course served in the proper glassware +0.5 star Te Aro's patio is nice and inviting.. (I luck out.. no little ones or toddlers on this cool fall day.. but plenty of furry friends - the water bowels for doggie is a nice touch). It feels like an Oasis and a resort up North in the middle of TO. Free WIFI always and extra +0.5 star!! Used my Indie Coffee Passport here!

Wow, my hot chocolate at Te Aro was a work of beautiful art. It was rich and delicious and I could drink that everyday but I live in the United States. Also, I love how cool this coffee shop is. The barista was nice the decor is comforting and the customers were even lovely. I certainly would recommend Te Aro!

I don't know what is worse here the staff member that I placed my order with or the flavourless latte. They didn't have three items on the menu, the woman that took my order was rude, short and wanted nothing to do with serving us. We picked this location with the purpose of supporting a small local business and ended up having g a terrible experience due to the staff member and the lattes that tasted like dirty water. Avoid this place , as the neighbourhood has so many other great spots that will great you with a smile and make you an incredible beverage.

My go-to for Beetroot Latte and PB oatmeal cookie! I like supporting non-chained coffee shops because you can actually see the baristas ' true passion for making a nice cup of coffee. Wiish there were more seating outside so i can sit down & enjoy my coffee slowly, or even go back in and grab a second coffee because the first was too good! Good job for staying safe & following covid protocols during this difficult time!

Te Aro makes GREAT coffee. Their beans (Pilot Coffee Roasters) are also for sale here. The beverage menu is pretty extensive, I imagine you could get most coffee/tea related concoctions. They also bake all their treats in house - tried the Earl Grey Oatmeal scone and it was suppppperrrrr good. Looks like they have some sandwiches as well but didn't try one. The space is pretty large with really high ceilings and lots of natural light. It wasn't too loud either, so although this visit was social - I wouldn't mind coming to get some work done in the future! Would definitely recommend giving it a shot.

The coffee is delicious here. Croissants are good too and their breakfast sandwiches. Seems more satisfying than Starbucks quick breakfast options.

In another search for the best coffee in Toronto, I stepped here because the other shop just east along Queen was overly packed. I will say this is a far more open, welcoming, and interesting spot to sit and enjoy a few coffees. Te Aro serves Pilot roaster coffees in addition to many great tea blend latte. Get all... really. Just a wonderful place to enjoy on an afternoon. I arrived on a Saturday mid afternoon to find this place full but not packed. There are many tables of varying heights and sizes that allow you to enjoy a cup quickly or sit and take advantage of the free wifi. I love how the tables are really nicely placed and you're not sitting on someone's lap. The front area is a HUGE window that looks like it retracts in the summer. I can imagine this being fantastic for the summer time. I asked for a chai latte with almond milk and a london fog one too. It came smiling, quickly, and no attitude. What a nice change from a terrible experience earlier in the day (aka. Avoid Sorry coffee in Yorkville). The barista made them quickly within a few minutes and I had in my hand two amazing lattes. The chai latte had a healthy dose of cinnamon and was not overly sweet. It allowed the tea blend to show ... I honestly think this is one of the better ones I've had in Toronto. Next time I'm here, I'm grabbing an espresso drink. Overall, great spot to enjoy a good cup and not feel crowded. It has a great energetic vibe and yet it's relaxed.

Taste wise, this is one of the best (if not the best) coffee I've ever had. It's like I'm back in Europe, and the taste is so different! And to make the experience even better, the latte art is beautiful and the atmosphere is very relaxed and good for studying. It's just too bad the location is so bad for me personally, but it's sometimes worth the hour of public transportation so that I can get quality work done.

I've been meaning to come here for a while, so glad I made it on a sunny weekend as they have a huge patio sitting area in front of the store. I ordered an americano misto and a flare white for the Mr. and both were brilliant!! Bold taste and full of flavour. Call me girly but I love the seeing beautiful designs on milk froths and the leaf on my americano was indeed beautiful. We also got a chocolate chip sea salt Cookie to share because it's massive but after the first bite, I no longer want to share. It was super moist with crunchy edges (my favourite part) with the perfect balance of sweetness and saltiness. Te Aro is definitely going on my top 10 of cafes.

Great coffee, but the service leaves A LOT to desire. Most of the baristas there seem unhappy - not even a reply when you say 'thank you'. I think the best part of a neighbourhood coffee joint is the interaction with friendly baristas, so will be avoiding this place in the future!

If I had a picture with a caption that said "herein lies a hipster coffee shop", this place could definitely be the subject of said picture. Nice open space, modern but rustic, large windows, bright, very neighbourhood-coffee-shop feel. We visited on a Saturday morning and the place was very busy - crowded with families, kids, young couples, singletons reading books while drinking their morning coffee, etc. It's a coffee shop that welcomes people from all walks of life, and has a very warm and inviting atmosphere. I purchased one (1) Latte to-go and it was quite good. Nice and bold, not too milky. I quite enjoyed my drink, but I enjoyed the atmosphere just as much. I'd definitely come back here when I'm in the area - it's a place I'd be comfortable doing work in, having a coffee date with a group or on-on-one, or just to sit and enjoy a drink before going about my day. Overall, a great spot. For my drink, I paid a little less than $4.00.

It has excellent coffee bean. Price is reasonable and you know exactly where coffee come from. Quality of coffee is supreme to the last drip.

Overall - 4.0/5.0 An excellent cup of latte can definitely be found here. Milk texture is on point and the espresso flavour is bold enough to come through the milk. This coffee shop will definitely be one of my top 5 joints to hit up, although it is a bit out of the way for me.

Cute little coffee shop in Leslieville. Got coffee to go but will definitely come back to try the food out. Staff is also super nice.

The coffee here is okay to good, depending on what you order. Pilot coffee has either gone way downhill lately, or I've just caught them on countless bad days. One of the women was an owner or manager, and another was another supervisor/barista type. (I have names but I won't post them here.) They actually - no lie - laughed at me for where I am currently living, and mocked other coffee shops and neighbourhoods in Toronto that I said I like to visit. Now look here, ladies. Your coffee is not that good. It's okay. Stop acting like you're the best in Canada and stop making fun of other Toronto coffee shops (including some who actually serve YOUR coffee!) An embarrassment. Get your head out of the holier-than-thou barista clouds and maybe make better coffee instead. (Two stars instead of one because the coffee is okay and the new girl on the cash register is nice.)

Stumbled upon Te Aro about a year ago, shortly after moving to Riverdale. Looking for somewhere to get a quick bite with friends with an outdoor patio, Te Aro fit the bill. Since then, I've become a regular. What brings me back to Te Aro is their amazing espresso. Beans are roasted in house and they always have more than one roast in rotation. Favourite drink is their cortado, a double shot of espresso with steamed milk, more steamed milk than a macchiato, less than a latte. Confused? Don't be, just try one. Their baked goods are also very good including their Panini sandwiches. Te Aro sells their own line of coffee as well as many brewing devices including the Chemex (what I use at home), the Bodum French Press etc. The space is a converted garage which lends well to the open concept, loft feel. Their tables are reclaimed wood, stools look like they are from your high school wood shop, and they even have a bunch of Eames shell chairs. Lighting is good, super cozy. Free wifi as well, perfect for those who work remotely or just want to catch up on the day's blog news. A great addition to Leslieville.

I came here after a cappuccino that left a bad taste in my mouth (pun intended) I thought to myself what better way to cleanse by going to a cafe that is ranked very high in the city. A fellow Yelper whose opinion I respect had recommended this place for cappuccino. The initial impression was nice as there is a very nice sitting area in the front. I was like oh goodie I can smoke my cigar here and enjoy my drink outside on gorgeous day like today. The interior is open and quite nice. Very inviting and it showed as they place was packed with people (a lot of strollers but I guess thats part and parcel of being in this neighborhood) The cappuccino here is tradional sized so don't be expecting huge mugs here. Nevermind it does it well where it matters. Espresso: Strong Crema': Excellent Milk: Frothed Well Latte Art: Beautiful. High praise here folks as this is one of the top spot for this hard to master drink in the city. I would even say it can go toe to toe with the best of best in Canada. The service is also quite good even though they were quite busy.

Third on "Kat F - Miss U Crawl" I head to Te Aro which seems to be the FAV of most people. I picked up an Indie Coffee Passport here, thanks to a tip from a fellow Yelper. This place actually makes you walk through all the customers sitting in the Front Patio and the Interior before you can get to the counter at the back. Cappuccino took some time to prepare as I sat on one of the creaky metal barstools that I thought I broke from a screeching noise but it's suppose to be like that. At least I hope it is. My Cap looked normal but as I drank the flavours of the Crema really stood out and what's more amazing is that the Crema and flavour was endless as you can see from the bottom of my cup. I was served by a new girl which doesn't know all the answers yet but she puts on a nice smile and greets people. This place can be considered a large place as far as independent Coffee spot is concerned but this Sunday evening close to 5 pm, it was 75% full of customers.

Went last week again, after 1 year. Coffee is still very good and service is still excellent. It just..just..i am kinda disappointed right now I don't get a the pot for french press.. they pour it to a cup.. which makes sense since it is a busy day. I am kinda disappointed by the bakery choice that day too. Used to love the almond croissant there, this time only some chocolate one taste descent but not surprisingly good. Also, they use to serve tea and water in a cute jar look mug from pottery barn, I like it so much that I even went to bought two for myself !!( all my friend saw it, ask me why u drinking water from a jar??), they don't have it anymore. Right now only small glasses. Don't get me wrong, still LOVE this place, and they still have great coffee, just for one of my fave spot, I have higher expectations and it is the weakness in my human nature that.. I hate changes.

Great atmosphere, fully accessible location including washrooms, friendly staff AND vegan options! I went here last week and had a soy latte (I think they also have almond milk) and a cookie. The vegan dessert was a delicious supersonic cookie supplied by Bunners bakery. I wish they'd have some more options though. A vegan savoury treat would be great! It's hard to find a local coffee shop that is fully accessible and even harder to find one that is accessible with vegan options. Te Aro fits the bill!

Judging by the service at this place, it must really suck to work at Te Aro. Not sure what is so confusing about needing extra room in my cup for cream. Also not sure if the place actually wants business. Between the patrons and the staff, things seem off at this place, and fail to understand how it's survived this long in such a saturated market. After putting up with some severe and unmitigated rudeness, the lovely lady behind the counter yes to me, "good luck out there!" To which I reply, your nine lives are all up.

Hey I like the cool funky look of the place but its really cold in there. Cement floors and garage door windows look good but let all the Canadian super cold flow in. A little expensive if you ask me, $6.50 for an English Breakfast tea and cheese scone. Well thats the way I see it.

I live in the 'hood now and fell in love. It's about time I updated my previous review since I'm pretty much here every day. The flat whites are delicious. Croissants are pretty good too. I wish they had more savory options (Bobette and Belle nearby has a ham and cheese one, mm). This place is awesome. Since I moved I only got one bad bevy after coming here dozens of times. My favourite cafe in Toronto!

The space is very inviting for people to come, have a drink, munch on a snack, and chill. I really liked their pear and ginger cider. I have never seen that before on a menu aside from the traditional apple cider. This was really refreshing and warming. The place is always hustle and bustle with people dropping in for a cup of coffee before being on their way or waiting for a table nearby. Great place and even better in the summer when the front patio space is open.

Of the many independent coffee shops in the Leslieville area, Te Aro is probably my favourite. Even if it weren't just steps from where I work, I would probably come here just as often as I have been. The coffee is consistently good (beans are from Pilot Coffee Roasters, drinks are expertly made), the price is more-or-less reasonable (and they don't charge extra for almond milk!), and I just adore their cookies (my favourites are the peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip and the chocolate chip with sea salt). The people are friendly and the ambiance is relaxed to go along with the rustic industrial chic decor. There is plenty of seating indoors and out - I recommend the patio if the weather permits - so this is definitely a place where you can grab a coffee and a treat and settle in for a morning/afternoon with friends, work, or some well-deserved me time.

The staff were very helpful-when I asked for a flat white with an extra shot they pointed out that a four shot flat would fill the tulip cup before the milk was added. So I got a latte instead. Pilot coffee does not disappoint. My friend's mocha with almond milk was excellent, as was the pumpkin carrot coconut muffin. The only downside was a massive cheese scone that had almost no cheese and tasted almost exclusively flour with a sprinkle of salt on the top. Horrible.

This is a super nice place especially outside patio. I had Almond milk tea and it was super good. I really like the atmosphere and people. There are people who are working, families, and couples. Everybody looks happy and enjoy being there. Bathroom was very clean. This will be my favorite place.

Great little repurposed garage coffee shop. Very welcoming and high quality coffee. Leslieville has a lot of great options and glad I found this gem.

went in to grab a cup of coffee on a Friday afternoon. I only drink brewed coffee (I've worked at a coffee shop for several years) and I can say with confidence that te aro/pilot roasts their coffee right. their ridged paper cups are brilliant because the design allows you to hold the cups without using any sleeve - which saves money for the business & supports their 'green' initiatives. lovely patio as well. coffee - 5/5 patio - 5/5 vibe - 5/5 washroom - 3/5 bang for buck - 4/5

Damn! This is some fine coffee! This is some of the best coffee in Toronto. Maybe in ANY city! They select and roast some of the most rarefied beans available in the GTA and all are available for your homebrewing pleasures - but the joy here is really had by sipping a finely crafted cup in this awesome converted garage. The atmosphere is mellow enough to come and get some quality work done, or to hang out with friends and have a spirited discussion. The people who work there seem to genuinely enjoy what they do and the barristas display some serious skills. All of this quality is brought in at a price that is more than fair compared to other cafes - mostly of a lower quality than Te Aro. The owners of Te Aro are New Zealanders. Little known in this hemisphere is that Kiwis are purveyors of great coffee as a matter of both national pride and habit. It was, in fact, on my very first trip to NZ that I started my life long love affair with coffee. Yes, I do confess an extra jolly factor in being able to walk in here and order a flat white without so much as a raised eyebrow. These Kiwis are so darn hospitable that I even personally witnessed them endure copious amounts of Aussie chauvinism with smiles to spare... I momentarily considered withholding a star due to the owners recalcitrance in not having opened a west side location EVEN THOUGH I asked nicely. See mom? It doesn't always work...

Located deep within Leslieville, which I'm sure is going to be renamed Coffeeville for all the high ranking cafes in the area, you'll find one of Toronto's more prominent coffee roaster/cafes called Te Aro. This cafe/roaster is housed within what was perhaps a former auto or loading bay of sorts. The whole front wall is a rolling window which I assume is opened during the hot summer months. Inside is a good sized space (which quickly gets cramped due to Te Aro's popularity) with high ceilings over minimalist earthy tones that accent across the cafe. It's comfortable enough a place to sit and sip coffee whether solo or congregating with friends, but I wouldn't say lounge chair comfortable. In the right hand corner of the cafe you'll find a large Sivetz fluid bed coffee roaster, considered one of the best coffee roasting machines in the world. The results of which ends up being a bright and delicious cup of coffee to your lips. Te Aro carries a few regular brew coffees which are rotated from day to day (I assume their yummy Little Bro house blend is regularly available) as well as their house blend Big Bro espresso and a single origin espresso. The recent Nicaraguan I had French Press style was delicious as was the single origin espresso I had when I first encountered this place. Price-wise Te Aro is in line with most indie cafes. Even more reasons to go to Te Aro: If you are hungry Te Aro also offers a large assortment of snacks as well as the more hearty fare of soups 'n sandwiches. I found the staff pleasant and knowledgeable. Worth mentioning and one of the reason I gave Te Aro five stars is that above everything else they also offer a coffee tasting session each Friday at around noon. A good way to get familiar with fine coffee. Te Aro is definitely one of the shining stars in the midst of Coffeeville. I recommend dropping in.

Te Aro Cafe is a retrofitted garage which has carved out a spot in my heart. My first impression of the place was "Coooooool!" Owned and operated by the darling couple, Andy and Jessie, alongside with their equally cool staff - they make fantastic coffees sourced from Fair Trade and Sustainable operations all over the world. Passionate and insanely knowledgeable about the science of coffee, they host a free "Cupping Sessions" every Friday at 12:30 PM where they personally guide you through the intricacies of tasting and profiling coffee to help you cultivate a finer appreciation for it. The cafe's "cool vibe" and fantastic patio serve as a great spot to chill out and connect on a date.
