Sam James Coffee Bar - Little Italy
OKAY HEAR ME OUT - Not a groundbreaking cafe, but if you want the Gilmore Girls experience, go find a Coffee Culture ASAP.
Here, you will want to order a large drip coffee (in a mug bigger than your head), and a sweet to go with it. :)

If you're from the east end of Toronto - you know Maha's. You dream of Maha's. You love Maha's.
They have a cafe at the back of the Kotn store in Leslieville where you can access their iconic cafe menu. Get the espresso tonic. It is bright, citrusy, and bitter - it will change your life.
