Very safe and welcoming environment. The staff was very nice and helpful. I asked the barista for a recommendation and she suggested a mocha with macadamia milk. I never tried macadamia milk so she offered me a sample which was refreshing. The milk was slightly sweet and not too watery like other nut milks. I ended up going with the suggestion and loved it. It had the perfect amount cocoa, milk and coffee in it and was not too sweet, but sweet enough. My sister also got the same drink and we both agreed that we would definitely get this drink again. The cafe itself has a hipster vibe and is designed tastefully. It has an alpaca themed store inside of it. They have things such as stuffed alpacas, scarves, soaps, straw bags, snacks, clothing, etc. Overall great experience and would recommend this cafe to anybody in the westboro area.
Cute spot, super friendly staff, one table only so I sat there did some work quiet and soothing background music! They roast their own coffee which was delicious!
Super cute café / shop with Pokoloko. The staff was very welcoming and the drinks and cookie were yummy! Would love to go back!
Such great service and friendly staff. Great amalgamation of 2 stores - Cloud Forest and Pokoloko sharing sustainability values!
I love this local coffee roaster. The barista is super friendly and she introduced me their coffee is from intag and roasted in Gatineau. I love her handwritings too. It’s like a cloud in the sunshine warm and brightand the misto is like misty rain when I am thirsty
A spontaneous drop in for espresso turned into a highlight! A very warm welcome and outstanding espresso!! Difficult to remember having better. I'll be stopping in as often as I can.
Came here today for the first time and the barista gave me a warm welcome along with a great recommendation. Great customer service
This review is for both Cloud Forest Coffee and Pokoloko Textiles. Super friendly staff, affordable prices with a lovely environment, interesting collaboration with great execution. Only complaints are lack of seating space for groups of 3 or more and late opening hours in comparison to a lot of other coffee shops.
Cloud Forest coffee is great. We've tried many local roasters but the coffee here has something special. The medium roast has some acidity but also a bit of a dark character but not too much. The gold/light roast is excellent. Complex beans. Plus, in store, they strive to continually improve. We've found that flat whites are weak at most places but they've worked on theirs here and it is nice and strong.
My new favourite coffee shop in Ottawa. While there is one other place for which I prefer an espresso, as for lattes, this place is my favourite. They have a great milk selection and even offer a turmeric latte, which is hard to find in most coffee shops. The baristas are all lovely.
