Cafe Neon

Decent coffee and the staff are fun. Food is pretty good but soups are a bit hit and miss. The chicken club sandwich is great as is the kale salad. Neon makes a mean croissant and I am super picky — flaky and buttery very good! Service can be a bit slow so have patience.

Come here all the time! Great coffee and a cozy neighborhood spot for brunch and lunch. The Neon breakfast and Niçoise salad are my go too dishes. They play great music here and have incredibly friendly and caring staff.

This little café is a little off the beaten path in an unexpected office/​industrial building. The coffee is good, brunch and salads are great and the atmosphere is very chill. Many of us from the local area want neon Café to be successful but worry about it being discovered by the masses
A couple of my favourite items include the eggs Benny and chicken patties as a side.
Enjoy!

Decent place for brunch. Got the sausage sandwich ($ 6) and brunchied it, i.e. side of salad and home fries (+$ 4.25).
I liked how the sausage sandwich came in an onion bun. That was a nice touch. Added a bunch of hot sauce to the sandwich. Fries were crispy on out and soft inside.
I wouldn’t say the food here blew me away, but it was good nonetheless!

Great food and addition to the neighborhood. The food is original and different and the vibe is really down to earth. Will be back over and over!

While most of the food here is great, I cant help but notice two issues that seem to be continuous problems for Café Neon (this coming from someone who goes there daily)
1) There seems to be a very hight staff turnover and many are not wll trained. There always seems to be numerous people there who do not know how to answer a question or use the register. This gets annoying after a while.
2) There is poor flow of this café. The second it gets even a little busy they get backed up and can’t seem to handle the orders. I waited 45 mins for my to go salad today because 6 people ahead of me ordered burgers… They need more then one chef. Also, if I go there for just a coffee sometimes i’m waiting 10 – 15 mintes in line because people ahead of me are ordering food. There should be an express line for beverages and another line for food.
Overall the food is is fresh and well made, but the way in which it is delivered is lacking

My friends are troopers. We had brunch plans last Saturday, and they were going to bed as I was waking up… and they still got it together to meet their preggo friend for bacon by noon. Tip of the tiny hat to my buddies.
To make their hungover lives easier, we picked a brunch spot up in the Junction near their respective homes, and I’m sure glad we did. Café Neon is an adorable spot for brunch. Lots of healthy options, but not so healthy that it’s not delicious. I loved my eggs, chicken sausage and beans. A very reasonably priced start to my Saturday!

Café and restaurant serving very good breakfast and brunch on the border of Bloordale and the Junction Triangle. Tucked away across from Ubisoft Toronto and a storage facility, part of a strip of new-​ish businesses in a repurposed brick industrial building. An array of well salted and well priced breakfast sandwiches, equally compelling at the table and packed up for take-​out. Enormously better for brunch than the Starving Artist around the corner on Lansdowne — better food and coffee, no marauding wasps and a less hectic atmosphere. Everything we have eaten there has been really good if not stand-​out excellent. A sure bet.

I just walked in for saturday brunch. The café was Very nice. Great food quality, nice and friendly staff. I will definitely come back next time.

Ate lunch here today, surprisingly big menu, tons of vegan and gluten-​free options. People who think it’s pricey must not be used to eating vegan and/​or gluten-​free food at cafes because I thought the prices were super affordable and the food was more than worth it. I had the super bowl salad with goat cheese and it was $ 14.50 for so much food!

The café is bright and roomy, with simple and artsy décor. I’ve had their catering food a few times, it’s delicious but quite pricy for the small portion. I’ve tried the matcha latte at the café, and it was a bit watery. Would like to come back to try their brunch some other time.

Café Neon, is probably one of the busiest coffee shops around the Bloor/​Lansdowne area. I often come here for a simple Americano or Coffee, and the beans they use are high end. I have also purchased food here a few times and their sandwiches are great, although on the pricey side compared to other places around the area.
The vibe and décor inside of very interesting and it has a nice coffee house vibe inside. There are always plenty of seats available, so there is no need to scramble to get out of there like a Starbucks or other busy mainstream coffee shops.
Staff is fairly friendly and I have had catered food from here and the catering staff are very polite and knowledgeable about the food they are serving. The catering food is also great, considering the quantity of food they must make sometimes. The ingredients are usually fresh and healthy as well.
Overall a great local coffee shop around an area that typically doesn’t get these kinds of establishments. I have yet to try everything on the drink menu, but I have my eye on the Devil’s Nectar next! I always drop by for a quick Coffee when I have the time, and I’m in the area!

Well this is my third try so i guess it’s fair to pass judgement at this point. They claim to have breakfast until noon but i’ve never managed to get breakfast after 11:30 a.m. They don’t have lactose free milk but they do have almond and soy milk. Strange.
Watch out for the breakfast sandwich that bears their name if you don’t like your bacon and greasy and soft and limp. The salads are amazing.
Friendliness of the staff will vary depending on how early in the morning it is so be prepared for a bit of grumpy service at times.

Coffee is good but sometimes it comes cold. Food is tasty but I find it a little overpriced. Guess that’s what you pay for better quality ingredients. To me it always depends on who’s serving — sometimes they are welcoming, other times not so much.

Great little brunch spot in my neighbourhood. It’s a little off the beaten path (west of Lansdowne on Wallace) so you sort of have to know about it to track it down. It always seems to be nice and sunny, thanks to a giant front window. It’s busy but not noisy. The staff are nice and pleasant.
Food is the usual brunch fare like eggs, sausage, omelettes, with lots of specials. Sometimes the food is amazing, and sometimes it’s just good. But it’s certainly never bad and always satisfies my early-​day hunger pains.
Coffee is bottomless, which should be standard for all places, but certainly something I like for the morning. And you can even get one last cup to go if you need to jet. Lots of desserts if you want to take it up a notch, and they have booze for later in the day.
Really like the atmosphere: clean and simple. Such a nice spot. Definitely recommended for any day of the week, but they close at 5pm on weekdays.

Café Neon is a café in Wallace Emerson that has a fun and urban vibe. I am a complete sucker for pretty interiors and something about Café Neon captures my attention. They provide breakfast during the weekdays and brunch on the weekends. Their sandwiches are made in-​house with vegan options available. One of their specialty drinks is the Devil’s Nectar, which contains two espresso shots and Coca-​Cola! Not exactly sure how that would taste but it sounds pretty crazy!
The employees told me that they have a great work culture at Café Neon. They are always asked for their input when the café wants to launch new food items or what sort of changes should be made. One of their barista is an artist who draws out all the menu boards. Another barista is a wedding photographer! Honestly, he has some of the most gorgeous wedding photography in Toronto I have seen. You can check his site out at:
. Trust me, you want to click it. I wished I am getting married so I can get some photos done!
Café Neon is simply a cute place that I recommend checking out if you are in the area for coffee or brunch.

Just popped in for a meeting and grabbed two croissants and Vanilla tea.
Pros: Large, bright space with ample seating. Free wifi.
Cons: Kitchen closes at 3. They are open until 5. No biggie except they still sell food until close with no way to warm it up… A toaster oven or even microwave would be an excellent investment.
2 croissants and tea came in around $ 9. They take credit and cash.
Plain croissant was pretty tasty, all the food in the display looked fresh and tasty. Chocolate croissant was a disappointment. The vanilla tea is DELICIOUS.
Girl behind the counter was checking her phone as I was asking questions/​ordering — big no no!

Awesome brunch. One of the best in the city, even. Sat at the bar and enjoyed some salt cod fish cakes and eggs Benedict. The Bernaise sauce comes on the side, which is a great touch if you’d like to not smother your food in it (or if you like to dunk your bacon). Perfect portion size and great coffee. So much positivity! Also, they were playing a lot of Pearl Jam, which I obvioously enjoyed.

Came here specifically for my coffee for the ICP. Gotta say I probably would not have found this place if not for the ICP.
But people in this neighbourhood must know this gem cause there was plenty of people inside enjoying their brunch.
On first arrival and going on, I was thrilled to see the décor. It felt like my kind of place. I ordered a Cappuccino which on it’s own was at a good hot temperature, good espresso flavor but was a bit small actually.
I love the way they used this space and from the pictures I think it would be great for brunch. Thus I only came for the coffee and didn’t have a chance to stay. This place I think could be a 4star for me, just gotta get me back for brunch!

This is a somewhat interesting area for a café as there isn’t much else here other than some offices.
I had the cortado as part of the Indie Coffee passport (ICP) as they didn’t have the Cappuccino. My friend went for a latte here is the verdict
My friend had a chai latte and commented it was quite good.
Espresso: Medium
Crema’: Decent
Milk: Frothed well with nice microfoam.
Latte Art: decent.
I would say check out this place if you are in the area. Their food items look interesting so are worth a look. I ordered a macaroon. The macaroon was so chewy I think I hurt my jaw (inherent problem when this dessert is made a full size)
3 Stars for the espresso drinks.
