Pomarosa Coffee Shop & Kitchen

For $70, it wouldn’t really be considered a meal. the Arepa was mediocre at best. One of the drinks itself was around $12. Although decor was great, i would not come here again

Pomarosa Coffee Shop & Kitchen is such a hidden gem! The vibe is warm and cozy, the staff are super friendly, and the food always tastes fresh and homemade. Their coffee is rich and smooth, and the breakfast options are perfect for a chill morning or a quick lunch break. Definitely one of my favorite local spots

A cute little venezuelan cafe that is very close to the coxwell station. They also have a patio and are dog friendly. I had a horchata coffee with oat milk and no sugar and it was sooo good! It could’ve been hotter though. If you don’t sip it quick, it’s gonna get cold! They do have vegetarian and vegan options. I ordered their vegan fries and vegan empanadas and they were below mediocre IMHO. Perhaps just not up to my taste as my friend absolutely loves their empanadas. May be it’s the vegan ones that are bland? Not sure. Nice place to work! Their wifi was not bad. I will come back with my dog another time to perhaps try other dishes. If not, I’ll at least have the horchata latte again! They also had a lot of frozen empanadas and so many cookies and the like!

Ordered the vegan ceviche, and the horchata. The vegan ceviche was phenomenal: tangy, fresh, and hit every craving. It paired lovely with the freshly fried plantain, which gets crispy, and softens nicely when paired with the ceviche. I love the addition of the golden berries. I would highly recommend this place to vegans, as there are lots of options! 🌱

Well rounded place to have homemade kind of food, meet a friend and relax. Delicious Authentic food! And if you like strong coffee, this is your place...order the tall black.

This is a must stop place for breakfast! Lots of gluten free options! Amazing coffee, especially the horchata latte. Wish I could give extra stars!

Oh mygod!!! I ordered tbe Domino Arepa (veg) and it was heavenly. The coffee was pristine as well!! I think I found my favorite spot 🫶🏼 I love this place 😭😭😭

Had a lovely morning here on a day off. Cute space and delicious arepa. Loved their hot sauces.

This place is gorgeous, spacious and the food is delicious. It gets very busy during the weekend so better to come early. Food price is average but the food is phenomenal. I really love the way they make the rosa latte here as well as the stuffed arepas. The sauces are also amazing and I highly recommend the green one. Parking can be a bit of a challenge and transit might be the best way to get there. They also sell local grocery products. This place is definitely worth a try if you are in the area.

Amazing food and service! Cute shop on Danforth offering authentic latin bites. I enjoyed their fish empanada and iced coffee. Will come back to try their other items!

Pomarosa is a colourful little cafe on The Danforth offering a range of Venezuelan drinks and food items. Inside, you will find plenty of seating, beautiful decorations, and some house-made items you can buy to go. I have tried some of their drinks and food items over the years, some standouts for me have been the Horchata (hot and cold versions) and their Empanadas (particularly the beef and bean & plantain flavours).

Wonderful pates and cappuccino. Missed trip to Portugal so tried some Portuguese treats close to home.

Are you serious with this place??? Fantastic. I wouldn't have considered to try this place, but my friend read about it and REALLY wanted to go so we figured we would come by on our way back to Michigan. This was some of the best food I've ever had in my life. Friendly staff also. This will be a repeat spot for me when I'm in Toronto, for sure.

Great place for gluten free desserts. Really good coffee. The orange cake with dulce de leche was good. Super quick service. The cake was very sweet though. We also got the alfrojo which was good but very sweet. Sugar shortbread with dulce in between just made everything super sweet and unable to taste

Delicious food with excellent and friendly service. The place is pretty and very clean. Can't go wrong with the pabellon arepa the meat was great, the portion size is generous and the flavors are unforgettable. Thus far best meal in our toronto trip and I'm already dreaming of going there again.

Thus place is still so amazing and now they are making fancy flavours of marshmallows like passion fruit. Mmmm They also do beautiful hot chocolates with them and their baked good stuff blow my mind. Now they have a little market where you can get a few supplies for your own baking and also their packaged treats and chocolates you can't get in Canada usually. They are always really friendly and I'm so happy they are making it through all this

I have always wanted to try something new even when it comes to coffee shops and found this shop almost 1.5 years ago.. (i still can't believe i did not review this) Already been here like 5 times, which I don't usually do unless i really love the place! This shop feels very nice and cozy not just with the coffee/food. By the way their arepas are soooo good.. i always make sure I eat one when I'm here. The staff is very kind and good, also made a friend who still works here. Best Venezuelan spot if you want to try some good food and not to forget the coffee here is also as good as the food. I have tried alfajores at many different south american shops around toronto but the best one you will find it here. And guava scones are another hit - you will be addicted to them if you are a dan of guava. Also I noticed that they try to improve the interiors.. every time i go here I see something different and its good if someone is really going back again and again - the change is necessary and glad they are looking into small details like these.

Ive bookmarked this place for a while and finally went to Danforth to pick up their Guava margarita- I'm so glad I did! The margarita was impeccable! It cost $25 and can make 3 cocktails. Reviews for their arepa seemed solid so I bought a chicken sandwich (the Reina for $11) to go. Unfortunately it was pretty soggy and wet by the time I got home. I also thought it tasted underwhelming. I loved the garlic mayo that came on th side though, and also happy I bought a jar to go (for $6...because who can resist garlic)???

Was checking to see what was new in my neighbourhood on yelp when I stumbled on this place. What really intrigued me were the drinks... we were looking for some lunch so we decided to get some food and drinks. We ordered: - papelon (organic cane sugar lemonade) - horchata - latte - reina arepa (chicken) - pork carnitas arepa - Flores arepa (vegetarian cauliflower) Wow - we were surprised by it all! They were really good especially with the garlic sauce! I have to say that the pork one was the best but they were all super tasty! The drinks were really good! We really enjoyed the lemonade and horchata! Although hubby said the latte seem to be more milk and didn't have any coffee taste in it at all.

Quarantine Day 2: Guess I was feeling really thirsty?? I wound up getting 3 drinks since they all sounded so tasty and I didn't want to have to decide. I had: 1. The Papelon which is an organic sugar cane lemonade which was perfect with the meal. 2. The El Dorado smoothie was my attempt at a health boost since it featured a mix of fruit, tumeric, and ginger. It had a very unique taste. The spices really came through but weren't too overpowering since it still had the banana and pineapple in it. 3. A hot creamy and smooth horchata latte that was a sweet treat. I found that it had a taste of toasted sesame that was oh so good. I wanted to thoroughly sample the menu and had: 1. Reina Arepa - This one was chicken with chunks of avocado and an avocado aioli, as well as pico. It made for a very creamy sandwich. 2. Pork Carnitas Arepa - My favorite of the day. The pickled watermelon was such a nice touch. I wouldn't say the arepa was heavy but there was a lot of meat so it was nice to get that fresh crunch. 3. La Culpa Es De La Vaca - This was a pulled beef. It was oozing with delicious cheese. 4.Guava & Cheese Empanada - It's filled with a guava paste and queso fresco. The queso had hardened a little bit since I think we waited until it was cold. It was a mix of sweet and salty. Definitely more on the treat side but I wouldn't really categorize it as dessert. All of the arepas were bursting with meat! I did wonder if there is such thing as too much meat. We gobbled up everything so I guess not. This was an UberEats order and when our courier arrived, he let us know that the restaurant actually called to let them know they forgot an item so he'd run back and get it. I did appreciate the effort from both of them to rectify the mistake. The item that was forgotten was the Alfajor which is a shortbread cookie sandwich with dulce de leche inside. This cookie was amazing! I'd describe it as kind of delicate in terms of flavour. Everything worked together really well without ever being too much. The filling wasn't too sweet. There was one other tiny little mix-up where they gave us 2 guava and cheese empanadas. One of them was supposed to be a savory beef one. Secretly I was quite happy since the sweet empanada was very yummy. My boyfriend not so much. I love that Pomarosa does food and drinks so well! It's definitely more than just a cafe and it does kitchen really darn well.

Great food. Great service. Great selection. I love everything on the menu! Nothing like it in Toronto!

Great local spot for breakfast or lunch. Pomarosa is located just about 5 min away from Coxwell subway station on Danforth. The small coffee shop and kitchen has about 3-4 tables. You order your beverages and food at the table and they will bring it out for you. I dropped by Pomarosa on a Monday morning before work to try their smaller sized breakfast arepa and had an americano. The breakfast arepa consisted of a homemade arepa stuffed with scrambled eggs, cheese, chorizo and pico de gallo. Delicious before a full day of work. The service was really friendly and attentive. The staff make your arepas fresh and they even told me that everything is made in house. Definitely would love to come back to try Pomarosa for lunch!

Everything is tasty here. My go-to is the Flores although you really can't go wrong with any of the arepas. The cauliflower is marinated for a few days which is just the kind of attention to detail that warrants another visit, and another lol The great thing about the arepas is that they travel very well so you can order delivery through Uber Eats or Skip the Dishes, and then just microwave it for a minute. The guava scone with Rosa latte (half sweet) are both winners too. Oh, and the hot sauce is very delicious.

Pomarosa Coffee Shop & Kitchen concocted one of the most delicious drink I have had in a while. Originally, I placed an order on Ritual for a hot version of the Venezuelan horchata, The staff made an iced version and remade it upon request. She was very kind and understanding. The drink was divine. It's how I picture what the tears of angel would taste like with sesame milk, soy milk, organic cane sugar and a dash of cinnamon. I didn't expect to enjoy the drink this much! Thank you for the introduction to horchata!

I felt adventurous one day and decided to explore the Danforth for lunch (also I didn't buy groceries and was hungry). That's when I discovered Pomarosa! I never had an Arepas before but I am so happy that my friend and I decided to eat here that day! I've been back a few times since then, and even got my family to come and try as well! The owners and staff are very friendly! They are easy to talk to and happy to answer any questions. The restaurant looks cute and inviting with its layout and decor. Its smaller, but still fits a few tables. You can also get your meal "to go" as well which I've done a few times. On my first visit, I ordered the Flores (Arepas) and a latte. My friend also got the Flores and got the Rosa latte. The presentation was nice and the food itself just looked so pretty and smelt so appetizing! My taste buds were immediately wowed! Very flavourful. The lattes were also very good and had cute presentation! I even got a "loyalty" type card where after a certain number of beverage purchases, you get one free. I normally go to the local Starbucks for coffee, but honestly, once I use up my points, I plan on coming to Pomarosa more often for coffee. I was happy with the quality and size of espresso beverages for the price point. And the loyalty card is a nice little extra! I would definitely recommend eating here and trying one of their Arepas. Especially if you're feeling something a little different. They are made from scratch so I've had to wait a short bit for my order (nothing unreasonable considering I usually have an order of 2-3), but worth the wait! I know that I personally will be coming back - I can't wait to try some more items on the menu!

This coffee shop is very nice. There are many seats and tables and seats are comfortable. I ordered Venezuelan horchata and horchata was good. They have arepa, tres de leche, churros, and etc which we look for as Latin American foods. The prices are reasonable not too expensive, but not too cheap.

I have been hesitating to try this place... and now I am kicking myself for not having gone sooner! The food was absolutely delicious! Their dough for the arepa and the Empanada was amazing! The beef for the Empanada was so delicious and well spiced. And the added touch in the latte, this is so great!!! I will start doing it at home! I definitely recommend checking this place out. Go online and look at their menu. The portion will not disappoint.... and every bite is packed with flavour!

This is a cute little cafe that's excellent for brunch. Had the La Culpa es de la Vaca Arepa and it's delicious. The amount of meat they provided was hefty and the arepa tasted so good dipping in their various sauces. Beware: the arepa can get messy as you eat it, but it's totally worth the messiness because it's that good.

My brother discovered this cute shop from a local Facebook group and took me here for a weekday breakfast. The shop is small, quaint, modernly decorated, and has a lovely feel to it. I've never had Arepas, but I love cornbread, trying new dishes, and my brother said they were bomb and had come back multiple times. I like that the menu has both meat and vegetarian options. I'm a vegetarian and ordered the Flores Arepa. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! Nothing like I have ever eaten before. The cornbread really complemented the filling and added a nice texture. Ask for the garlic mayo if you like garlic; it adds an amazing taste! I also got a latte as per the recommendation of my brother who said this place makes his favourite latte in the neighbourhood. He was right! My latte was FANTASTIC! My brother buys the same coffee beans this place uses for his espresso machine at home and I'm always amazed by the lattes he makes. Overall: DEFINITELY COME HERE! The arepas and coffee are WORTH IT!

Lovely experience!! The Flores arepa was a really lovely experience and was bursting with subtle flavours and gorgeous colours. A really unique and delicious experience. Nice iced coffee too. The decode is gorgeous and feminine. Ultra-Instagramable!! The whole experience was so delightful!

Wanted to try everything on the menu! The Flora arepa was so flavourful and filling, horchata also very delicious! Decor of the cafe very modern and artistic, service was friendly, they have outdoor tables in the front and they're building a larger patio space in the near future. They have a lot of bakery, dessert and drink options as well as arepas. Green P across the street $3/hr or 1hr free street parking.

Ordered the pork carnitas arepa off ritual and it was delicious and a good size. It was fairly filling. It came with cheese, pickled watermelon and a lime cream. The pork is slow cooked with flavours of orange and espresso. We tried a couple drinks like the horchata which was quite yummy. I'd definitely go back and recommend it to others! Great spot in the neighbourhood.

Loved this cute little cafe! Had the rosa latte and it was delicious and so pretty. The arepas are hearty and full of flavour. The guava and cheese scone was delicious. They also served 2 sauces with the arepas and I enjoyed them both.

Willing to travel all the way from the west end of the city for some arepas and hot chocolate. Cannot stop recommending this place enough to everyone!

Visiting Toronto we decided to stop by this cute coffee shop. We were delighted by the ambiance, the food and the drinks. Spot on the kids menu!!! We brought my 7 month old daughter who was served the most beautiful plate with arepa, beans and avocado. Overall a great experience! 5 stars for being family friendly, it's not easy to find restaurants like this everywhere! We loved how they made my daughter her own plate, and they were very attentive to the cleaning after she finished. Thank you!!!

Love the vibe and the food and coffee are all great high quality. Arepas are authentic.

The worst customer service iv ever had. My coffee was cold and my red velvet cookies were stale with mould on them truly a terrible place!!

I had the best scone ever- guava and cheese. I also loved my cappuccino!! New place that makes arepas...will try next time.

Beautiful, cozy and welcoming coffee shop in the Danforth. Great selection of delicious home made pastries, healthy bites, gluten free and vegan products. Terrific place to do some work or meet friends!

I guess I'm suppose to like it because everyone else does. I live walking distance to this shop. I've tried them 4 times. They are dry to tell the truth. The dough taste stale. The last one I had, and last time visiting was cold in the middle. It was heated from the fridge to the press. Not returning.

Easy on line ordering for pick up. Pork carnitas and Flores sandwiches were just excellent. Beautiful light arepas. Sweet and salty guava cheese empanada was devoured too. I also got a pork empanada for tomorrow's breakfast...12 hour braised with passionfruit. Bet that's a hit too! And ooh those desserts looked good in the display case. I'll be back for sure. We're super happy to see Latin food in Danforth East. Thank you ladies and welcome to the neighbourhood.

Really friendly staff. Delicious food and drinks. Would highly recommend. Nice addition to the neighbourhood.

Everything here is amazing - delicious arepas (both veggie and meat options), scrumptious baked goods (guava white cheddar scones!), smoothies that actually taste good (so light and cloud-like!), great coffee and the friendliest staff. Breakfast arepas are also excellent. Definitely one of the more unique businesses in the neighbourhood and a welcome addition. Highly recommend!

Awesome spot. Homemade goodness that's prepared right in front of you. Authentic arepas with a glorious twist. Not to mention they have Pilot Coffee Roasters on tap, enough said right!

The woman at the cashier asked why I was asking for more juice and both the server and the cashier started to complain about it. The Cashier said it's because I drank the juice too fast and now I wanted to take advantage and drink more. I am not sure if they were taking just because they tought I didn't speak spanish (wich is rude) or they just want to be rude because I came 30 minutes before closing time. I would preferred that they told me "it's too late we are closed" that received such a horrible service. I ordered an empanada that it was uncooked, it seems that they are frozen and still I could tasted that the caraotas were frozen. What a waste of money, I was conscient that I was close to closing time I ordered on the counter and I pay in advance including tips to save them time so they can go to home early. I used to recommend this place to both latinos and non-latino people because the previous owner care for quality and service but they either change owners or the Saturday night shift needs to be trained in cooking and customer service. If you are in Danforth and want good Venezuelan food with good service you have find another place.

Seriously tastey arepas and smoothies, always friendly staff, nice vibe. My first experience with arepas, somewhat like a pita pocket sandwich with thicker corn bread and tasty fillings. Repeat customer. You'll like it here.

I'd never heard of arepas before, but the moment I stepped into this tiny and bright cafe, the smell was enough to make the mouth water. I had the Reina (chicken, avocado, pico de gallo); delicious, spicy, fresh, filling. Service is great too. Will be sure to come back for more.

Fantastic coffee and arepas! They offer Venezuelan food. I can't wait to try everything. They have a fabulous looking bakery section.

Great food & great atmosphere. My friend and I were very pleasantly surprised! The horchata was incredible. Food was fresh and thoughtful and I was so happy to hear they had adjustments to their recipes to accommodate vegans (like their vegan mayo). Walking into a restaurant can be difficult with a diet like mine but they had everything I wanted and needed. I'll be back if I ever find myself in Toronto again!

Haven't gotten to try anything else except their empanadas but OMG if everything else tastes as good as these, I will be back!

Stumbled upon this joint when our fav sushi place wasn't open yet and we had a hungry 2 year old on our hands. Arepas were delicious. I had pork and my husband had beef. They even made one with just chicken and cheese for our picky little guy. He also loved the banana peanut butter chia smoothie and I had a latte which was excellent. One of the best lattes I've had in the area. Cute, airy little place. The girl behind the counter who served us was lovely. She even put the smoothie into smaller cups for my son. Will definitely be returning.

Been here multiple times and tried almost everything, it's all mind blowing and amazing. All the arepas are super unique and flavorful, and the sauces are on point.

Delicious arepas served in a warm and friendly environment. There are about 3-4 tables so it's more so a place to quickly catch up with friends. We ordered the the Reina (chicken and avocado) and the Pork Carnitas (shredded pork with pickled watermelon). Both were absolutely delicious. The arepas were crunchy on the outside and had a nice soft texture on the inside. They also fill the arepas to the brim, so it can get slightly messy, but that's half the fun! They offer a selection of drinks including espresso based beverages and they carry Sloane tea. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking it out.

This place has delicious arepas and delightful coffee. I tried la culpa es de la vaca + a Rosa Latte and I enjoyed every single bite of this delicious meal. Amazing service and beautiful decoration. We needed this spot at the danforth. Don't forget to try the scones.

Delicious arepas that are big and filling. Smoothies and coffee were also delicious. Staff was very friendly and the place is very modern and clean. Would definitely go back and try the scones everyone keeps talking about!

My new favorite place in Toronto. We stopped in around 11:30am and there were a few other people in the place but by the time we left it was packed. I can see why- it was phenomenal. The owner was so kind and friendly and eager to help us. You can 100% tell he puts his heart and soul into his work. I had the hibiscus arepas (per his suggestion of my meat-free preferences) and I was blown away. I didn't quite know what to expect but it was perfectly spicy, the hibiscus was almost reminiscent of a mushroom/cabbage hybrid.. beautiful creamy avocado, cilantro, the sauce it was in, the fluffy, cheesy arepa... just.. so so good. My friend had the pork and had nothing but good things to say about. They also offer some gluten-free treats that were unbelievable.. I got the tahini brownie (literally the best combination I've never thought of!) and the sweet potato loaf... It was so nice to see gluten-free treats offered in addition to the already gluten-free arepas! Next time I'm in town I'll be back for sure. Can't say enough good things about this place.

SO GOOD! Such a nice addition to the neighbourhood. The arepas were delicious - we had one pulled pork, one chicken that we shared... Great coffee and we split a banana/nutella cupcake for dessert. Will head back in a heartbeat.
