There's a lot going on in the neighbourhood this weekend. Farmer's market, and 100 in 1 day urban interventions in Withrow Park, Riverdale Street Sale, Riverside Eats and Beats street festival, and the Riverdale Art walk.

Noticed that the "For Lease" sign has disappeared from the window of the ground-floor unit in the new building at Logan and Danforth (southwest corner). Might mean that it has been leased (or it might simply mean that the owner is switching realtors). In any event, there are views of the interior here.

There's Dark City, too, at Bowden.
It's a shame that no independent coffee house culture ever developed along the Danforth. Crema at Logan, with Red Rocket much further east, is it.
You could also include Tsaa in that -- they focus on tea, but also do coffee.
Yes - I did think of that, and Tsaa is a gem, but they are a tea place. Lots of places "do" coffee. McDonald's, for example, does coffee. It's possible, though, that I shouldn't draw such a hard line between tea and coffee places.
I guess I should also mention Riverdale Perk and Red Rooster, two great coffee places, neither of which happen to be on the Danforth strip, but rather in the midst of the residential neighbourhood.
I'm not sure Red Rooster is steps away (Riverdale Perk is actually closer to the Danforth), but I had mentioned it. I'd forgotten Broadview Espresso (the whole stretch of Broadview north of Danforth is simultaneously under-valued by area residents and not living up to its potential). Not sure what the "real deal" is (I suspect it differs from person to person), but not sure it's Kafenions (unless you're an old Greek guy), nor places more known for beer or frappés and other deserts. Regret having made the original comment, as this is clearly not a black and white issue. Am now waiting for someone to say that Greenwood Smokehouse has great coffee.
