Faema

Pumpkin latte and marshmallow cappuccino $ 4.43 each. Both were already sweetened so no additional sugar was required. Both tasted great and perfect on cold days. The cappuccino was really foamy and hot lots of marshmallows.
They also have sandwiches and desserts/​pastry but I only got to sample their caffeinated drinks.
Lots of seating and great service

My friends and I dropped by to chat over a coffee. Everything was an indulgence at Faema. There were seriously good espresso and Americano. They were rich and smooth. How did Faema make these? The impressive part was the dessert and ice cream. We had a selection of gelato, tart and cake. They were all rich, yet not overly sweet. The bill for the four of us was under $ 30, tax included. The only issue I had was that the services were at a «leisure» pace.
Overall, 4.5 star. I will likely return if I am in the neighbourhood.

I stumbled across this place 2 years ago. It’s mostly standard for an Italian coffee space. Nice gelato, nice sandwiches. I keep meaning to try their pizzas, but keep getting distracted by their excellent Ricotta pie. I get it every time and it’s never disappointed yet. I’m fairly certain it’s made in-​house too. Mmmmm…
It’s in a food plaza north of Vaughn Mills next to Marcello’s

Not good. Went here after dinner. I ordered the Ferrara rochier cheesecake and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was basic. The cheesecake was sour, I couldn’t eat it. It had gone bad but mine was the first slice, so I’m just wondering how long so they store them before bringing it out. I left it. The gelato was okay but the cheesecake left such a bad taste in my mouth (literally) that everything after that I couldn’t enjoy.

The service was really bad. We came and wanted to get gelato. We first waited for 10 min before anyone acknowledged us, and when we said we will stay rather than get it to go, she said to take a seat and someone will be with us. We sat and waited for another 15 min and still no one came by…
Glee got so angry we just left

I was here on Father’s Day with my family for lunch, coffee and dessert. The service was slow and inconsistent — they ran out of lots of items. My mango salad with grilled chicken was small with very few pieces of mango and not very fresh spinach with a few craisins on it. The chicken incredibly dry. When I say dry — I mean DRY! It was overall very disappointing. The ice cream was yummy — my kids ate it up. I just don’t think this place is worth all the hype. Wish Marcello’s wasn’t so busy.

Came here with friends to grab coffee. The concept was weird and we weren’t sure if we should sit or just order an sit. It was a bit confusing. My friend is vegan and was pleased to see the vegan treats however they weren’t very good. My latte was okay but nothing special. I wish I had tried the gelato as it looked good. My friend loved her red velvet cheesecake.

Came here after visiting Reptilia. This place is apparently known for their baked goods. Unfortunately, it was a bit late by the time we got there (10ish on a weekday evening) so the kitchen was already closed.
We did enjoy some drinks and desserts though — lots of gelato — and it was my first time having it. Liked it. :)
Service was good, wouldn’t mind coming back.

I’ve been twice, and both times I’m disappointed. The sandwiches lack flavour and ingredients, they are not shy with their prices… I’d rather go to Tims.

It is the best coffee right now in the GTA. Located in a satellite mall to Vaughan Mills, the outside is really vanilla. The interior has a very modern and sleek look.
They feature coffee, pastries, sandwiches and gelato. They have a large area selling various coffee makers including really expensive ones.
The coffee is superior and the pastry fresh and extremely well baked. The service is good. The prices are about the same as Starbucks… but oh the difference in taste.
My mother-​in-​law really enjoys taking coffee there, although its quite a haul. It is worth it.
Go there!

Faema is a nice Italian café if you want to kill some time and have a coffee and a little dessert/​snack or a full lunch/​light dinner.
It is set up more like a restaurant. so you will not find comfy sofas, love seats where you can hang out with your friends and talk about nonsenses for hours.
The cappuncino I ordered was A-​OK. It was fun looking at all these coffee makers at the back corner of the store. Now I am happy and willing to pay for my cappuncino/​caffe latte instead of buying a machine and try making that at home!

Looking across at a Starbucks, I sat to enjoy a Double Espresso after a day of work. I did what I know it to be the ‘Greg C.’ Espresso test to see the consistency and quality, where it did pass but obviously not the same as the place where he showed me.
Nevertheless it made for an enjoyable drink at a place where it felt like an INDOOR patio setting with a unique food fridge display that has curves like no other. It makes for a good VIEW of the desserts, paninis, salads.
The BACK corner is a display of various Espresso Machines and accessories not as much options as Green Beanery but it is still an interesting sight.
I had the Chocolate Brownie that seem to have Walnuts in it with a Fudge layer. It was better than simply a CAKE-​base Brownie and along with the side of Whip Cream it really make the Chocolate stand out without being overly sweet.
There’s Waiter Service here as well or if you’re simply on a COFFEE RUN you can go to the counter and order. There’s service because this place has Lunches and Dinners as well, or simply look at a small black board of DAILY SPECIAL.

Went for lunch yesterday and had one of the best veggie sandwiches ever! Filled with all my favourites, eggplant, zucchini, red peppers, mushrooms and the best part goat cheese! Absolutely yummy with a side order of a garden salad for the great price of $ 10!
This place has a little bit of everything! From pizzas, to pasta, to sandwiches and the best desserts! Their hot chocolate is so yummy and they put it in a big mug — great for a yucky day.
Highly recommend this place after shopping at Vaughan Mills!
