The Big Guy's Little Coffee Shop

Nice Coffee Shop in South Etobicoke. Another off-beat kind of place, near 5th Street and Lake Shore Blvd in Toronto's west-end. The place is comfy, with an eclectic mix of furniture in the main sitting area, great for relaxing with a book, or talking to a friend in a relaxed atmosphere. Their drip coffee is excellent, and their Amercano ain't bad. Don't expect barista-style perfection on other coffee products, but I go here for the drip coffee when I'm this far from the beaten path. <br/ <br/ Food is homemade, and of the sandwich variety, but I did thoroughly enjoy my ham and cheese sandwich. <br/ <br/ In the suburban cement jungle that is Etobicoke-Lakeshore, The Big Guy's Little Coffee Shop is an oasis for coffee lovers who think Tim's tastes like instant freeze-dried coffee, or who think Starbucks coffee is just burnt. My dark roast coffee was just right, here.

A few of my very favourite things can all be found in this lovely Lakeshore coffee house. Delicious coffee, local works of art and really nice people.

This hidden gem of a coffee shop is easy to overlook if you're just driving or walking by. It's frequented by many regulars, and the staff are fantastic. If you find yourself in the area, I highly recommend stopping by for a coffee!

I absolutely adore this place! The coffee is consistently excellent, and Big Guy is always fantastic. It's a perfect spot to meet up with a friend or to relax and catch up on some reading while enjoying a latte.

Great local spot! I had my morning coffee and a pastry there. The owner, who also serves as the barista, was friendly and welcoming. I really enjoy supporting independent businesses.
