Great! And nice almond croissant. But had to wait 40 minutes for it but to be expected on opening day! Lol.
Here are some videos. (Trying to link for first time-hope that it works!)

To be honest the store is fairly gimmicky. Many of the drinks are sweetened (which is a red flag) and they have also decided to redefine a standard drink Macchiato yet again into something different - creates confusion in shops that try to hold the traditions. As far as the coffee, I had a single espresso. I took one sip and poured the remainder out. The equipment was definitely not dialled in - the extraction was too fast. One would think in a new shop they would pay attention to things like this - leave a good first impression. I'm sure this store will appeal to the Starbucks crowd who typically like something sweet. A true coffee fan will be disappointed IMO.

As someone who doesn't care for Starbucks product; i personally think their basic coffee beans are over-roasted to the point of acrid; while every variable drink is too sweet and/or synthetic tasting for my palette, I find your review informative, if disappointing.

Hmmm.... I wonder what the best one is? 
I walked by that % shop today with my daughter. It is noticeable but neither of us knew what it was. There was a big line up so obviously we are out of the loop

What I wanna know is where is Cinnabon? They announced they were returning in early 2022, and it's still not here.

Meh. Auntie Anne's is better. I hope they come back to Canada. The almond pretzel they have is so so good.

It's the same company, maybe we can get a combo unit?
And unless Google Maps is lying to me, there is an Auntie Anne's in the Square One Mall.

Despite Jeff's review (which is very descriptive for any coffee lover) I'll probably try it out at least once, but I have no intention of waiting in line to do so.

I had no idea. That would be awesome! Haha. There is just no other cinnamon bun like Cinnabon unfortunately.It's the same company, maybe we can get a combo unit?

Wonder if the nail bar pulled out, the hoarding material has switched to generic Union stuff
