Holts Café Yorkdale

just a quick review here. came for an early dinner. very healthy French inspired menu. Pleased to see they had a full bar :) ordered the soup of the day even before our drink order but server never brought it so I cancelled it and she apologized and offered the excuse that she didn’t think I confirmed it. plus had to ask twice for water so service is certainly subpar and inattentive for the name branding and the price. Our meals, however, were quite flavourful and refreshing. I tried my first open faced «tartine» French sandwich with grilled steak which was very good and my friend’s chicken butternut salad (forget name, sorry) was even better (I liked the slight sweetness). Left hungry (due to the lack of soup) but hey, if it maintains my figure, so be it. no discounts nor freebies were offered for order mistakes so a little disappointed with the establishment ‘s service policy. would recommend the Holt cocktail, did not enjoy the tart taste of the renfrew cocktail nor the blandness of the mojito. would like to try kiwi lemonade next time… in no rush to go back, though.

I LOVE their bakery ~~~~~~~~~~ they taste good although personally I do not really like apple pies yet the taste was good to me~~ Sadly it was only a pop up store and there no seats for you to sit down and enjoy the afternoon and have to sit down in the doodcourt inside the Yorkdale Mall.

Recently opened inside Holt Renfrew at Yorkdale Shopping Centre, Holts Café is a delight of healthy and comfort food. Perfect for a nice relaxing break in this very busy mall. It has a beautiful modern airy décor and it’s not very big. The food is great, I ordered a croque monsieur and a kale salad. Both were delicious. You have to order at the counter and then they bring it to your table. The staff is very nice and courteous, they made sure my water was always refilled. In the style of European cafés, they feature a full bar, and all the espresso drinks we love to enjoy. There are also many pastries and sweets both at the drinks bar and at the food counter. Will certainly be returning!
