Café Olimpico
This is where I start a day off. No pour-over theatre, just a fast, correct cappuccino pulled by people who've done it for decades. The terrasse is the neighbourhood's living room. Cash speeds things up.
The Mile End's Italian café institution since 1970. A proper cappuccino, a buzzing terrasse, and zero pretension.
