The Common, a beloved little cafe just east of Dufferin on College, is terrific evidence of an evolving neighbourhood; one that has changed a lot in recent years but still manages to maintain its low-key charm and tight-knit vibe. Back in the days when Ossington was just a bus that I took home, not a whole lot was happening over on this end of College Street. Five years later, the neighbourhood... more

Indie junkies, artists and musicians chill over serious coffee. The occasional mac-star will type away (hopefully not about you). Atmosphere is comfortably stark and minimalist.

Just my piece. Take it for what it's worth.

Best latte I've had in a long while and very affordable. Cookies are great too. Quiet vibe, a lot of people with laptops. Decent amount of seating for a smaller space. Will definitely be back when I'm in the neighbourhood.
