My Dog Joe

Westdale is just cool. I have a hard time believing my kid will be this age soon, as of February she's old enough for university and that's the majority of the crowd is here at My Dog Joe. Neil is with me today, we ordered our drinks (cafe Americano for me and latte for him). I toiled over my treat but settled on a Hello Dolly which frankly, "kicks ass". My first choice was a vegan cupcake that was chocolate espresso but couldn't compete with Maggie's baking.

The cafe is lovely for those that love a calm, hippy atmosphere with awesome music and free Wiifii!!!! I love this place, my Americano is delicious, full flavour, no bitterness and a nice size cup. It's probably a good idea that this isn't in my neighbourhood because I pretty much guarantee I would be spending too much time and money here.

1) Americano - $2.50 (one of the cheapest I have had lately! What???)
2) Roasted in house? No 7/10
3) Service - excellent and friendly 9/10
4) Access/location - most likely need to walk a distance but easy enough 7.5/10
5) Flavour - 9/10 delicious, full flavour, no bitterness
6) Ecofriendly - china available, paper cups a green! Wonderful! 8.5/10
7) Cup size - good size, Neil's was a MDJ mug :) 8/10
8) Food - made in house, the Hello Dolly is incredible and vegan/vegetarian options available 9/10
9) Ambiance - fun, mismatched furniture with awesome hip tunes playing <3 9/10
10) Salman Rushdie lookalike comes here (it really did look like him). 10/10
