Beautiful cappucinos ! So smooth, beans have a great, deep coffee flavour to them (but they don't taste burnt or acidic like some can). Highly recommend this place, and it's so convenient in the PATH!

Dan Brown

Amazing coffee and they've got a huge amount of snacks and pastries to whet your 2PM sweet tooth craving. Experiment with not just their drip coffee because the cappuccino is delicious.

Rosaline

Drinks are crafted with care, although not always consistent. My cortado is in varying volumes, depending on the day. Treats are hits- favorites incl the cardamom cruller & salted choc chip cookie

Brishen Viaud

Delicious coffee , probably the best in the PATH. Worth the trek underground and while it’s always busy they move fast. Great service.

Nathan

A bit hard to find (it's on the Sun Life side of the St. Andrews PATH), but the espresso is phenomenal. Cash only , though.

Becca Gilgan

Despite the hoards of young and old professionals alike, service is still pretty quick at this sneaky Sam James in the PATH, just outside St. Andrew 's Subway Station .

Teena

Yummy latte !! Prefer the regular latte over vanilla latte . Will visit agin! Cash only tho.

Andrew Berry

I ordered an espresso . I had a sip. I swore. It's that good. Also? They pull all their shots with a naked portafilter. Intense stuff.

Emily Brooke

Probably the best cappuccino I've had since being in Italy. This place is delicious!

Emre Bilgin

quick & kind service . delicious espresso (80% BR ➕ 20% CO). credit cards accepted ????

Toronto coffee culture finally came of age with Sam James. Fantastic, on par with places like Blue Bottle and Vivace .

Michael Mckerracher

Love a Sam James in the morning. If you are lucky enough to see a brown butter donut , but it

Best espresso in the path. Cappuccino is perfectly sized (think an Italian portion rather than Starbucks) and $3.25.

Nicole Hoye

Say hi and thanks to your cashier and barista! God knows the suits ordering here can't be bothered to.

Wilson Tom

Great place to take a sip of coffee

Rick Ambrozic

Must waaaaaaay too loud and not good music either. Wanted to get coffee , but turned around and left.

Bhaskar Murthy

Don't believe the hype. Mediocre americano at best. If you want a real coffee , check out Dark Horse nearby. Or Vivace in Seattle.

Angelina Pasqualina

Probably the worst coffee I have ever had in the path. Super expensive and it tasted like water. Also, lattes do not have as much foam as a cappuccino , this escapes them. Save your money.
