I was looking forward to trying MLC, they have been located at a booth in the Terra Winter Market in Burlington for the last couple weeks. They are amongst a group of local shops selling their wares for the winter months at the garden center on Hwy#5, between Brant and Guelph Line. This funky and cool coffee shop is a traveling coffee trailer normally but set up to sell coffee, freshly roasted by the cup.

I am particularly fond of locally roasted coffee and this was delicious, but they also suggested the bean that would suit my particular way of drinking it. Maggie has her coffee with soy (which was available) so was offered Brazilian beans, I drink coffee with a spot of sugar and got Columbian. I am so pleased, informed and satisfied with some fantastic brew! Coffeetastic!

1) coffee- $2.50 9/10
2) roasted locally- Detour coffee beans in Dundas 9.5/10
3) service- amazing, friendly and informative 9.5/10
4) accessibility- tons of parking at the greenhouse, normally mobile in Burlington and west Hamilton 9/10
5) flavour - Columbian roasted beans, sweet and mellow with full flavour as Detour does 9.5/10
6) Eco-friendly - compostable paper cups 8/10
7) cup size- one size 7/10
8) food - n/a
9) Ambience- super cool servers with tons of coffee expertise 10/10
10) Wifi- no, mobile service makes it impossible
