Reviews of Font Coffee Bar (Coffee Shop)

Cam McLaren

Great capuccino and carrot cake, great place for a break

Kevin Bourque

Excellent carrot cake. Thanks for having Gluten free and lactose free options.

Cindy

Nice little coffee bar, located in quaint Fonthill. Good prices and cool atmosphere, featuring local art and modern, industrial decor. not a ton of parking, which is worrying, as most of the units in the plaza are not occupied yet. About a 10 - 15 minute walk to downtown.

Cody Glover

My favourite place to get a coffee! The coffee is great and so are the baristas!

Jeanette Kulik

Cool new place

Joshua deBoer

Love this little coffee shop! And they make an amazing iced vanilla latte! The store itself is super cute, and they always showcase local art and paintings! I love that they have a cute outdoor sitting area to enjoy on a nice day. So much better being able to support a local coffee shop than big chain stores, the quality and atmosphere is on point!

Thomas Farago

Nice little gem with fast WiFi and great coffee

I am reluctant to leave a review, because I don't want this place to end up too crowded, but of course that is a catch-22. I have searched far and wide across Niagara for the best coffee shop in the area, and this is it. Their espresso beverages are fantastic, and they have a top notch espresso machine, grinder and beans to go along with it. Their service is always friendly and prompt. Although its a good 25 minutes away from my house, I try and make a trip at least once a week for some fantastic coffee, and I literally cannot get any kind of fast food latte anymore thanks to Font. The decor is modern, with high ceilings, and tons of natural light, unfortunately this can also be a slight curse in that sound travels easily and it can be a bit drafty by the doors in the winter as they are single door entrances (where their oh so comfy couch is located.) Finally the prices are quite reasonable, with most beverages cheaper than Starbucks, they also have salads and baked goods, which are also reasonably priced.

Indigo Plateau

Best lattes and cappuccinos around. I drive there from St. Catharines because it’s that good!

Renia Tymczysz

Great coffee, friendly staff. A great studying spot

Tom Moore

Great coffee, relaxing atmosphere!!

Grant Thomsen

Really disappointed... I made an online order which was never received. When my order of 6 hot drinks did get put through they were all incorrect and lukewarm... trying to support local but very bad experience

Drew Unruh

My favourite local coffee shop! Delicious coffee with great options similar to those you'd find in a Starbucks. They also have delicious treats and ice cream. The service is always great as well!

Leah Wright

I went to font right after they opened. Very nice clean facility and welcoming with all the windows. Like that they have some outdoor seating. Loved the buttertart! It was delicious. However they didn't harvest their own coffee, didn't have an edgy feel to it at all, and no drive thru or event board etc, so I sadly don't know if they will last especially being right across from tim hortons. However with that said they have a great location with parking and friendly staff and hopefully they get past the growing pains and are able to find their target market and get it busy all the time! Wish them the best of luck!!

Delicious, wholesome and nutritious lunch options. Covid-friendly indoor and outdoor seating. A very laid-back cafe. I would 100% recommend this cafe become a regular destination.

Hard to find but the coffee is ok, if you're in the area.

First visit and fell in love. Service was great and staff were extrememy friendly. Gave great suggestions on what "treat" to pair with my tea. Great seating, quiet location and nice view. Will go again soon.

Melanie Sodka

Apparently there are exciting changes coming soon. Follow on Instagram @fontcoffeebar to get updates!

Alexis Keats-Bartlett

Beautiful indoor seating area. People are really kind! The server even took the time to help me find the perfect coffee. I don't even drink coffee but I thought because I had something to go to here I would get a coffee. But I loved the coffee! It was amazing.

Ceilidh Barlow Cash

Love the vegan selection. Gluten free would be a great touch!

Scott

Paul De Divitiis

Great lattes!

Tom Keenan

Wonderful upscale coffee bar, great selection of snacks as well.

Great spot

Cicely Sparks

I have recently added this place to one of my favourite coffee spots. Great lattes and coffee and unique baked treats (Sweet potato cornbread muffin, delish). They also sell ice cream which I may try at some point.

Trevor Jenkins

We drive 20 minutes past a lot of other places. Drinks are excellent every time.

Samuel Noble

Clean place, good coffee, decent prices. Much better than Starbucks.

Love this place. By far my favourite coffee (and I haven’t been able to replicate it myself or find one just as good elsewhere). Their desserts are also really good. Friendly staff and always a clean environment. Highly recommended.

Ryan Degner

Delicious coffee and chive scone. Indoor/outdoor seating. WiFi is 'fontcoffee' (strong signal). Parking on the side or back.

Mariano de Aranaga

Fantastic little coffee shop, very friendly staff, and of course great coffee!

Steve Fryers

Nice place and very busy. I will return.

Paul Timothy

Great little coffee shop! The coffee tastes great and the atmosphere is nice. I like that they don't have blaring music as this allows for me to listen to my own music and not hear theirs over top. My only complaint is the pricing. A small Americano costs $2.50 and has two shots of espresso. The large Americano costs $3.00 and still only has 2 shots of espresso. What is it that costs .50¢ from a small to a large? This to me is crazy. For .50¢ more there should be at least one more shot of espresso. There just shouldn't be a price difference for adding hot water.

Carolyn Ambrose

Staff was great. Coffee is great

MICHELLE KILLICK

Great coffee and treat!! Stop by, it's worth it!!

Mike Dobsi

Love this cafe, great service and high quality coffee. I’m always sure to stop by when returning to my hometown. I just wish Font Coffee Bar had been in Fonthill earlier!

Matt McAllister

First time going recently and very good coffee and selection of pastries. Excellent customer service and prices. The type of coffee experience Fonthill has been missing.

Craig Smallman

Excellent coffee. Expensive but good for a once in a while treat. Wish I didnt have to ask to get the coffees marked which is which every single time.

Emily

Really wanted to try this coffee place for the longest time. The environment was like Starbucks. So wasn't so bad!

Chris Field

Nice place to drop in and have a nice coffee. Friendly staff that make a good coffee, nice atmosphere, and good music. Could use more baked goods.

Laura Lemick

Nice quiet coffee bar providing teas, coffees, and several other drinks and snacks.

Tyler Dykstra

Nice place and friendly staff

Phil B

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! I have been a huge Starbucks fan forever, but, this place may actually top it!! The only down fall for me is that I live a 20-30 minute drive away, or else I would be there all the time. It is well worth the trip every time though! The salted caramel brownies and to die for! They have a great selection of drinks and food as well as different gluten free and dairy free options as well! Would 100% recommend to everyone.

Thomas Bachelder

I have stopped by a few times now. Coffee has been great, service is good and it is a really nice space as well!

Mackenzie Budd

My daughter told me I had to try this place before I left town. I'm not a fancy drink type like she is so I opted for a medium blend coffee and a tea biscuit. The biscuit was delicious and the coffee better than most chain coffee shops that I have attended. The person behind the counter was efficient and pleasant. This could easily be a daily stop for me if I lived nearby.

Sydney Soares

Great coffee, service was top notch. Very accommodating to the person I was with, who has a disability. Very positive experience, we will definitely be going back.

George Smith

The coffee was fantastic and the place is super clean. Had the chocolate banana bread and it was awesome!

Chris Adams

Service

Catharine Rowland

Surprisingly modern coffee bar with high-ceilings and lots of tables for laptop work. Few comfortable chairs. The coffee was properly extracted and the milk a good texture, but the ambiance could use more warmth - the radio played instead of a playlist, and the sound and smells (wanted and unwanted) travelled through the space.

Jacqueline McCollom

Great coffee, great vibes!

Alexis Lakey

I've since updated my review. I went when they first opened and the service wasn't overly friendly and the coffee wasn't anything special. I have gone back recently and it has been much different. The service was great! Very friendly people behind the counter. And their Pumpkin Latte was great! wasn't overly sweet. Great job! The plain black coffee isn't my favourite, but everyone has different tastes.

Pablo Chaves

The tables and both washrooms were filthy. There was no toilet paper and no paper towels in the bathroom that I was in. My wife said the handicapped washroom was just as filthy.

Love this place. Honestly the best vibe in Fonthill. The staff are warm and the coffee is hot! Great place to get some work done, read, or catch up with friends. Only thing that would make it better is if the internet was more accessible. Great place!

Awesome place to hang out. Great coffee - and you can get absolutely smashed with their complimentary vodka while enjoying the iced carrot cake. Will definitely visit again.
