Cong Caphe (Annex)

slow afternoons on bloor west have a particular rhythm, and cong caphe's annex location fits right into it. the stretch of bloor between bathurst and spadina pulls in a mix of university of toronto students, longtime annex residents, and people who just want somewhere to sit without being rushed out the door. if that's you on a given tuesday, this is a reasonable place to land. cong caphe is a vietnamese coffee concept, which means you're likely looking at ca phe sua da alongside whatever espresso-based options are on offer, and that alone makes it a more interesting stop than most on the block. well regarded locally, consistently. not a surprise given where it sits and what it's doing. worth timing your visit around a late-afternoon iced coffee before the evening crowd picks up on bloor.
