FUEL+

I thought this place was pretty meh… The service was unfriendly. I ordered a large coffee, but she gave me a small. The wraps that were pre made in the case were $ 10, and tiny. Pretty expensive… We ended up just ordering 3 energy balls that were good, but nothing special.

Today, I finally had a chance to visit this wonderful shop. Chester is sooo nice and really funny. Chats with all his customers and makes them feel special. He made my Coconut Butter Iced Coffee, which I have to say is absolutely delicious, an island party in my mouth!!! I also got the PB Breakfast protein bowl and let’s just say, it made my day! I really will have to make a point to visit this spot once in a while because their goodies are that good. I also got the Fuel Balls which are such a great treat!!! Thank you for your wonderful shop!

Love the place. All their food and drink options can be modified for GF, dairy free, etc and the variety is awesome. What you get truest feel like healthy fuel for your body and mind. I plan to be back in the morning!!!

Great little coffee place with some pretty interesting coffees to try! First of all, the owner of Fuel+ is super friendly, a little quirky but he’s funny and very helpful when you’re standing there with a confused look on your face. I loved the atmosphere here, it was very casual, cozy, and friendly.
I only had their butter coffee so I can’t really review on any of there other items on the menu. It was actually the first time I’ve heard of butter coffee (and this seemed to be one of their specialty drinks), but the fact that butter was in the name, I had to try it. What it is, is basically an espresso blended with butter (from what I was explained, it was grass fed butter), and MCT oil. The result? Amazing. It taste a little like a cappuccino, but it has this residual creaminess that you don’t have with just milk or cream.
Although I might not drink this on a daily basis, but I would definitely recommend it if you happen to pass by and is feeling a little adventurous, it is a pretty incredible experience for the taste buds.
They’re also opening a new Fuel+ at another location in a few months, so that should be exciting!

The hot oatmeal protein shake was perfect on this frosty morning! Very filling and tasty! Friendly staff. Clean and bright with easy to read menus.
I’ll definitely return and try other items.

Green goddess ($ 6.99) has an initial sweet taste from the juice but has a veggie aroma and leaves aweird veggie sweet bitterness on your tongue afterward. Not exactly a taste I’m used to but it’s okay. The drink comes with a Vega one protien powder which is plant based instead of milk so, it is vegan friendly. I don’t think the protien was fully mixed into the drink though cause I found a clump of it after finishing the drink.
Butter coffee ($ 3.99) does have a rich buttery taste I can identify especially the aftertaste on the tongue. The butter flavour sort of makes the bitterness of the coffee tolerable.
Every time, someone opens the door, the cold of winter goes straight through the café. There is no vestibule and the door closes really slow. There are approx 7 tables of seating in the café. Not very busy on a Sunday afternoon. No music.
As someone not into health food, this may not the best place to get a drink.

Awesome little coffee shop in the village.
Great service, and a great cup-​a joe, though it’s much too nice to be called joe.
And the Spicy Ginger Chai Latte maybe one of my favourite drinks period. If you like Gingery things like I do, this is a unique little drink, and great during the winter.

Trust everyone who is raving about this place. I discovered it on a walk home from the gym about a year ago even though it looks pretty unassuming on Church St. I stopped in for a protein smoothie, which was delicious, and went back many times since for quinoa salads, smoothies, peanut butter balls (not too sweet!)… Cute, clean shop with the friendliest and most helpful owners. Prices are totally reasonable for the quality and service, and they even have an app you can use when you make purchases to save in the future! Next on my list is to try their butter coffee. Will definitely return.

I love their protein shakes! It is a perfect solution to a hot hungry day. You are filled up with good nutrients and cooled down at the same time. Service is super friendly as everyone is very relaxed, you don’t see that in Toronto very much! Drinks run around ~$ 8 and I got a free energy ball for checking in using Unilocal app! Yay for freebies.

This review is based almost solely on the coffee. I want to like their coffee, I really really do. The owners are super nice and they use organic milks, locally roasted, fair trade beans, and their food options are great for the vegan and/​or gluten-​avoidant person in your life. But the coffee just isn’t that good– I can get the same from Sbucks — bland and yet bitter.
So sorry. The food should be reviewed separately as I’ve enjoyed a number of (very expensive for small portions) items.

Hands down my new favourite place to eat. This place hits it out of the ball park for me. The only sorta negative thing to say about fuel + is the street sign doesn’t stand out so it can be a little hard to see. Frankly I wish I noticed this place years ago. I can’t rave enough about it. The food & drinks are AMAZING fresh unique recipes. The prices are so good I am blown away. To my understanding the food is all or for the most part local. You can really tell with the quality of the products they put out that they have great sources. The service is on point too. Super helpful, warm & welcoming. I must say Fuel + is 110% worth checking out. It’s worth taking a trip to come here.

Your search for an awesome, independently operated coffeehouse/​smoothie bar ends here. I simply love this place.
AMBIANCE — a great view of the Church street «strip» for people watching. It’s especially nice during summer when the windows are open. Lots of warm reds and exposed brick. Very clean and cozy.
DRINKS/​SNACKS — I can honestly say everything I have tried here has been excellent. Smoothies, organic/​vegan/​allergen free baked goods, vegan wraps… and the list goes on! There is plenty of variety here so you are bound to find something you like. My personal favourite items are the «fuel balls» and the cucumber-​Apple refresher.
SERVICE — All staff are very attentive and friendly. You will find yourself becoming a regular quickly and getting to know everyone!
PRICING — Keep in mind you are supporting a local business by purchasing top-​quality organic beverages and snacks. Naturally prices are a bit higher than your standard Tim Horton’s but still quite reasonable.

I should probably mention I’ve only been here ONCE and very briefly.
I’d just finished my training session at my nearby gym, and forgot to bring my own protein shake. I headed down to my favourite nearby juicery (Fresh Juice) which was closed (surprisingly). Anyways, I backtracked to Fuel+ which I only went to because it was conveniently a minute’s walk away.
And can I just say, wow!
The staff were so friendly I felt like I was actually conversing with friends. They make you feel welcome and as if helping you was the best part of their day, very patient and informative when I was indecisive and curious about which protein shake would be best to get. Honest, took me a good five minutes to decide, but they were really helpful.
I probably dread the protein shake part more than the workout part, but theirs tasted nothing like whey.
Thanks for the hospitality guys!

I absolutely LOVE fuel. My only wish is that I lived closer to it.
I’ve been so many times and each time the staff are extremely friendly and kind. They’re always patient when I’m super indecisive about what to order (because of all the options) and it does not go unnoticed.
They have great smoothies, snacks, and wraps but what I always come here for is the butter coffee. They make it perfectly and if you’re ever looking for something light but filling, get it as your breakfast. You’ll feel full till lunch time and it gives so much energy. Plus, they make it so good here.
Also try the peanut butter energy balls — my fav.
Basically the place is great and if I could, I would come here every day.

I’m a big fan of Fuel+ and appreciate it even more because i live in the neighbourhood. For me this is my emergency breakfast, after gym snack, lunch on the go or casual coffee place. They have a selection of healthy smoothies, juices, vegan wraps, salads, protein bars and handmade energy balls. The other thing I like about visiting is that the staff are very friendly, fun and seem happy to be there — and you can tell the two owners are very passionate about their business and care for the customers.
My favourites (so far):
— green goddess smoothie
— peanut butter chocolate smoothie
— peanut butter energy balls
— butter coffee
— any of the vegan wraps

Loved the enthusiasm of the staff working! I got the beet chocolate drink and it’s absolutely delicious! Apparently a favourite of many! I checked in for the fuel ball (the peanut butter chocolate chip one is delicious!) with no hassle. In fact, they were so happy that I wanted to give it a try. Very satisfied with the recommended choice.
Apparently their butter coffee is very good! (Or the coconut coffee for those with dairy allergies). I’m coming back to try next time.
Excellent service and even better drinks!

Love this cute little place ! The staff /​owner are so enthusiastic and passionate about what they do and that energy just pass to all the customers come here and made everyone’s day better. The conversation flows and seems that they remember all their regulars customers which is pleasant .
It has a good variety of selections and not like the healthy drink shop only offer protein shakes. They offer cold press drink, smoothies, fruit shake all look really delicious. It also has organic coffee and tea with their twist. I had their signature butter coffee which has americano, MTC oil (a blend of coconut oil and almond oil) and grass feed butter all blended together so yummy. The texture is creamy, smooth without any greasy mouth feel and of course buttery. Was surprisingly good I drank it up in a few minutes .
They also has an app so that could get coupons and stamp cards. And believe It or not they even have tutorial to teach you how to make some of those drinks. How sweet !
I would definitely come back and try more scrumptious treats.

Finally crossed this off my hitlist, and I’m very happy that I did!
I was greeted by a chipper Chester, and he spared me no details in telling me about the butter coffee (~$ 4.50) that I’d ordered. Grass-​fed butter, blended with MCT, and locally grown coffee beans. Normally, I’m a one-​sugar-​splash-​of-​cream kinda girl for my coffee, but this coffee was so smooth and delicious on its own, I skipped all that and had it black.
He also encouraged me to check in, because (TADA!!!) there’s a check-​in offer of 1 Fuel Ball per drink order! I picked the seasonal one, which was peanut butter with expresso and rice! Yeah, that fuel ball barely made it out the door — I scarfed it down.
Overall — Love my experience there. The service was über friendly and thoughtful. I can tell the owners are passionate about their products. My one gripe is that prices are not easy to see — website doesn’t show it on the menu, and the signs in the store have the price in small, light coloured font.
Oh, and now there’s a FUEL+ app too!!! With punchcard for buy 8, get 1 free!

Coffee review
I should mention to start that I don’t think that I’m in the target market for this place… it seems to be targeted towards vegans/​vegetarians, and I’m a borderline carnivore.
Ordered a large cappuccino. First of all it was really expensive… perhaps the most expensive cappuccino I’ve had in Toronto. about $ 5.6 after tax. But the the quality did not match the high price. It was okay, but nothing special. Even if I’d paid a more reasonable price, I’d still say that this was an average cup of coffee. There was no latte art either… just a wad of foam (not microfoam) on the top. I should mention that I came on a Sunday, so I’m not sure if the main barista was on duty (I had a lady serving me).
I was going to give 2 stars, but I got a free fuel ball for checking in on Unilocal,so I’ll up the rating to 3 (even though I didn’t really like the fuel ball)
Surprised this place has a 5 star rating.

In Toronto for a few days and saw this place was close to me on Unilocal and had great reviews so it was time to try it for breakfast. I love shakes for breakfast.
There was only one lady when I walked in and line quickly formed behind me ! I got the blueberry banana vanilla chai protein shake and they also had a Unilocal coupon buy a drink get a free fuel ball which the lady gladly accepted so I went for a cinnamon one.
Super friendly right off the bat and cute little store.
Everything tasted great, and pretty average pricing for this stuff in the city. Looks like they had a lot of other good stuff I’ll have to come back to try one day. I’ll give them 5 stars, they’re doing it right.
