This cafe is very unfriendly to kids.Sunday morning, on my husband’s birthday, we stopped by for breakfast with our 6 month old baby. We were let in, got a table, ordered a meal, but as soon as coffees and food arrived we were asked to leave because the cafe claimed they were not allowed minors inside. They were talking about some alcohol license that didn’t let them have kids inside. No matter that we didn’t order any alcohol.I find this rule offensive and ridiculous as we’ve been to many cafes, restaurants and even breweries with our baby and never had any problem. We left with great disappointment and without any compliment from the cafe that could’ve shown that they were sorry.

Edit: Second visit inconsistent cup, barista not well educated about the great beans they are selling at the shop.Coffee prepared with a La Marzocco Leva, by talented baristas (although had some inconsistent cups in the past visits I will give 5 stars by considering the highest-quality cups I had at the cafe). A great example of a 3rd wave cup, they sell a wide selection of top-quality and interesting beans. Coffee served in sustainable cups. Recommended, I hope the cup quality is consistent throughout every day of the week.

Unfortunately I will not ever go back to Cordova although I like their coffees and the fact that they let dogs in. The little men that works there is extremely rude. He made me feel like I was ver dum and I’m not. When I asked why did you speak to me this way, it’s the second time I come here and you answer me rudely. He just continued speaking to me in a condescending manner. I don’t recommend triplace.

Luke is the best!!!!! For Luke you get four stars!!!! I leave off one star because I do think it would help to have some cold drinks like water or juice. And a selection of teas. Sometimes us coffee addicts just want to change our addiction for a day. About them not allowing children, I’m not sure that is true I have seen babies in there before and it was fine. Maybe it was one loud baby? As for customer service yep a lot of the coffee ?’s can be a little mean and snobby. But maybe ? it is just ok since we don’t expect them to be fake. Still I had a few rude people and a few amazing people like Luke and the guy with the British accent. It’s a unique vibe. I do wish they would sell my structure coffee beans again ? I go downtown to buy them now. Coffee is good here so that’s good.

Great Sandwich ✅Good Drinks✅People who wont judge me drinking at 11am ✅✅✅✅✅

We weren’t sure at first about coming here for a quick coffee at around lunchtime on Saturday, but it’s a great thing we followed the neon “espresso” sign in their window. Staff is super friendly and welcoming and the butter croissant…extremely buttery! After speaking with the friendly people here, I’ll likely try to come back again but later in the day for a cocktail, because if they’re anything close to the great coffees we’ll be well-served. Take a look at the attached picture of their menu for a preview. Cheers,

Great spot ! I don't drink so I had a iced coffee. Fantastic ! Nice patio too

Very good service, great choice of coffee. My go to in the morning

As someone who works in retail, i genuinely understand how frustrating and exhausting it gets to work with people, which is why i didn’t say anything after my first unpleasant experience at this coffee shop. However, it has happened three times now. While i understand the annoyance and exhaustion that comes with working in customer service, i do not and will not understand being utterly mean and condescending. Three different staff members have made me feel unwelcome and quite frankly uncomfortable on three different occasions and for no reason at all.

Love the place very friendly and whatever you want they are for you very clean also highly recommended
