Nespresso Boutique Bar

A good friend of mine bought a Nespresso machine and has brought it to the office. I tried one coffee and loved it! So I went online and looked up for the closest Nespresso store to me. I was excited to learn that there is one located near me, in Yorkville. On a Sunday afternoon I walked over to this store and got in line (the pods can be purchased at the back). Once it was my turn, I was kinda lost. There were so many options, and so I had a few questions. But sadly I got stuck with the worst sales person in the whole store! She looked annoyed, was not particularly eager to answer my questions, while around me people were being treated to coffee, shown around, given an education on the different options… and I can’t figure out why I was getting the crappy service. I was there to buy lots of coffee! So I played it safe and got 4 boxes of the regular coffee — not the flavored one — cause I did not know if I would like it. But in the end, after I paid, and out of sheer frustration, I asked if I could sample a flavored coffee. Though not excited by my request, my sales person walked me over to the coffee machine, put in the pod quickly and then took off. Another sales person saw me standing there waiting, and she came over to say hi and offered me sugar, milk and a napkin. Now that’s service!
Let’s just say that Nespresso coffee left a bitter taste in my mouth. I am gonna go back to my old coffee.

Had a croissant and coffee for breakfast as I was shopping nearby.
The seating is super comfortable and the service is excellent. The prices are very reasonable and competitive. It’s the same price or cheaper than starbucks with better food and seating.
I frequent the nespresso boutiques often to restock on capsules and the service is always excellent, the same can be said at the café. Always treated like a VIP unlike many of the other places on blood.

Nice place. I went here with a friend because I got a promotional card of free coffee and pastry for 2 ppl at some event.
I had the Bagel and Lox ($ 12), which was really good and filling. Its Atlantic smoked salmon on a multigrain bagel with cucumbers, shallots, capers, and dill crème cheese. $ 2 cheaper then the Smoked Salmon Bagel ($ 14) at the Drake Café. Yeah, I love my salmon bagels. Lol. Sooo good and hard to go wrong wherever you decide to dine.
For my drink, I ordered from their speciality menu, limited edition for the holidays. I forgot the name but I will post a picture. My drink was huge but needed a bit of sugar, which they even provided. They also gave me a little Nespresso chocolate which was nice.
I would definitely visit again, I just wish they provided wifi and had more seating. It gets pretty packed in the mornings.

I haven’t tried the drinks and food there but this is my rating for their customer service. Came in to buy the Nespresso capsules for my machine at home. There was even a gentleman at the door as soon as you walk in that greets you. They were so helpful and even offer a me an espresso.

So classy, so beautiful, so enjoyable. We went for a morning breakfast since I had a voucher card from the Taste of Toronto festival earlier in the summer. This is the first time that I got more than what I expected with a voucher, how unexpected! It said two coffees and two pastries, but the server invited us to order anything from the breakfast or even the lunch menu, since it was nearing 11 am. For a café in Yorkville, I was thrilled that we were treated so nicely. Because of this, I’d definitely consider visiting the Nespresso Café again to stock up on pods for family members, or to enjoy a fancy drink with a friend. The prices for food weren’t outrageous, and I really enjoyed my grilled cheese with figs and balsamic vinaigrette. Can’t wait to go back!

Love coming here for coffee… such a great location!

Want to feel like a prince or princess even if you can only afford to dress like the peasantry? This place is for you.
I’m a biker at heart and come in jeans and leathers, and they greet me just as delightedly as they do Yorkville hoity toities, with smiles that are really genuine.
The manager, a man with a French accent like warm, sweet, pure maple syrup, and the face of a (lightly-​bearded) cherub, is happy to go to the trouble of grabbing boxes of things to show to you or talk to you about the latest flavours. The sparkle in his eyes says he loves what he does and the ease and happiness on his staff’s faces and in their interactions says they like working for him.
I don’t feel the need to speak on the espresso/​coffee. That’s really a personal taste and I happen to love it.
Their café food is really just meant as a showcase for the espressos/​coffees, but what a gorgeous and yummy show it makes! Ingredients are natural, high quality, and with artistic presentation. It’s a delicious joy. My personal favourite is the Croque Monsieur, lovely thick-​sliced sweet ham on challa bread with a truffled sauce, and Gruyère cheese melted to the outside of the bread. I always get the soup option with it and am never disappointed or left hungry.
Prices are, well, Yorkvillian, but reasonable for what you get.
Be clean, be kind, and have a wonderfully special time, feeling as appreciated as any Ritzy-​Bitzy High-​Dinky-​Doo better’n’you that walks in off Cumberland. ;)
Also know that if I take you here sometime, I must think VERY highly of you. I reserve this for only the VERY BEST people I know and care about. :)

I love Nespresso and no matter where I go it’s always delicious!!! I love their coffee I own one of their machines and I love it… Service is always super nice…

Fancy Nespresso boutique is here! You can recycle your capsules at the door. You can go to the far back to purchase your goods and try their coffees for free. The front of the building is all café style so just seat yourselves and wait for someone to bring you a menu.
Most of their coffees start at $ 7.50 for hor or cold. They serve breakfast goods and lunch goods. Their macaroons are $ 2.50 a piece or $ 13.50 for half a dozen or you can order a dozen. Their lobster panini is pretty good for under $ 15 you get a panini with a lot of lobster and choice of salad or soup.
Great service, treat you like a high end coffee drinker. I would definitrly come back for the food, surrounding and service :) coffee though i can make at home since I have teo machines … haha

Really liked this place. Pricey because of location but loved the drinks and the macarons. The environment is perfect for patio season and the staff is just on point. Not overly friend as it is yorkville after all but not too snooty that I wouldn’t return.

In a sense a partially hidden gem, the Nespresso Boutique is a welcome rest stop from museums, shopping and more intense Bloor West street.
The café is located behind Bloor street near Cumberland and close to the ‘rock pile’ and park.
The staff are excellent and give you space and time to enjoy your coffee.
The décor is sophisticated on many levels and yet comfortable casual. Even the sound experience has been acoustically tuned to provide calm ambience in the midst of an otherwise charged area. A great place with friends or family for coffee.

I only give four star because of the lack of WiFi in the boutique.
But all the experience was 5star.
The coffee was really good, latte nice and tasty. Small selection of deserts but really good quality.
Pricy of course but when you walk in you know that it would be pricy. The place is really nice and elegant.

This is a place to visit ONCE if you haven’t been to a Nespresso before. Grand décor, even grandeur (read expensive) coffee makers at the back of store. Coffee is very average, some are rather tasteless. But what bothers me MOST is the service – pompous service!!! I have been there twice. The first time I came across a rude staff and though it was my bad luck and wrote it off. The second time I am almost convinced that it’s the culture in the store. The body language when they are serving you. My goodness! These people think because they work at Yorkville give them to behave that way!!! I almost wanted to go all American and yelled at her at her face!

When you first step in, you are greeted by their forever tall ceilings and open spaces. You can sit wherever you like, or wait until one of their hosts escorts you, whichever you prefer. One of the reasons why I love Toronto’s Nespresso boutique in Yorkville is because it has such a high ceiling! Personally, I love high ceilings because they can really change up a room’s atmosphere and style. It makes me more relaxed.
The waiter or waitress brings some ice water with lemon for you to drink while you look at the menu.
If you’re familiar with Nespresso’s coffee lines, they offer all of their types available which differ based on the intensity, key aromatic note, and size of cup. There is also a decaffeinated version for those who prefer decaf.
According to my husband, the coffee tastes amazing. Since we don’t like acidic tasting coffee, Nespresso is a good fit for us. The price of the drinks at Nespresso are more expensive than those at independent or local cafes, but we tend to still go to Nespresso for a variety of reasons.
As for me, the dulce le leche coffee was great. I usually get their hazelnut hot chocolate coffee, which is equally good, but sometimes I prefer something with caramel instead of chocolate. This dulce le leche coffee was perfect. For serious coffee drinkers, it wouldn’t suffice. As my husband always says, «too sweet!»

What a gorgeous relaxing oasis in the middle of Yorkville. I usually visit the store twice a month to buy pods and the relaxing atmosphere to sit and have a wonderful coffee is beautiful the Decour is very modern and loads of seating.

Overrated. The flavoured based drinks are nice, but far too expensive. As far as actual coffee quality… blah. Way above average for pod based coffee but nothing compared to the real thing. Far too expensive. I’d take an independent coffee house that sells a decent manually freshly ground and roasted flat white or americano any day!

Café with beautiful décor with a Nespresso shop at the back where you can purchase the machines and pods. The shop also offers complimentary espressos and cappuccinos for you to try and I must say they taste just like getting them from cafes! There’s no limit to how many you can try either, so I was able to get a taste of couple flavours which was great. My friend purchased two packs of pods at around $ ⁸⁄₁₀ which we both think is pretty reasonably priced.
We wanted to try out the café as well, but unfortunately there was a wait and we didn’t have enough time. Am definitely planning on coming back to try that out.

Lunch: mediocre soup that lacked squash flavour but delicious croque Madame sandwich. My friend’a quiche was also stellar. The ambiance is light and airy and modern. The service was attentive and unobtrusive. The coffee was good but didn’t knock my socks off and for $ 5 really should come with a chocolate or similar treat. I would come back for a get together with girl friends and the experience.

This place is stylish and it’s like a hotel’s lobby lounge. I was greeted by friendly staff once I stepped in. There are leather chairs and café tables on one side and ipad bar on the other. The chairs are comfy and big enough to put coat and handbag.
It is a great place to relax or chit chat with friends but the drinks and food are a bit pricey. Drinks are ranging from $ 5 — $ 10. Macaroon is $ 3 each. They also serve hot food like quiche and sandwich.
I went there on a weekday afternoon. There weren’t too many customers. We waited about 10 minutes for our coffee and dessert.
There is a showroom for the machines and pods at the back. The staffs there are very knowledgeable and professional. You can look at this place as a grand retail shop with a café. This café is for drink-​in only cos they don’t have disposable cups.

Fraîchement arrivé à Toronto, la boutique Nespresso a décidé de s’implanter dans le quartier huppé de Yorkville. On dirait une bijouterie, un magasin de luxe, un café interplanétaire, le hall d’arrivée d’un aéroport … Mais on y vend du café, des machines pour faire du café, des capsules pour faire du café.
Mais où est donc mon ami Georges Clooney?

I prefer Nespresso coffee over Keurig or Tassimo, and it’s exciting that it’s now so accessible in Toronto. After trying a couple of samples at the Nespresso Boutique Store at the Eaton’s Center, I was curious to see what the sit-​down café in Yorkville would offer.
Located on Cumberland, the new Nespresso Boutique Bar is about 14,000 sqft. It’s a very modern, open-​concept café with a separate sit down and coffee bar area, as well as the boutique at the back with all the different machines and coffee capsules. This is not your typical cozy European-​style Café where you grab an espresso and ponder how your day will go. Did you forget this is Yorkville? This must be the new place to see or be seen because at $ 7 a latte, I hope the paparazzi are outside waiting to snap my photo.
Don’t get me wrong – the space is beautiful, the staff is lovely and aesthetically speaking – It is wonderful; however, I wouldn’t come here regularly for the coffee or for the lattes. Perhaps I would come to sample – for free. They have got nothing on «real» coffee spots such as Sam James, Lit or Fahrenheit Coffee.
