If your feeling low after hearing about the best goat cheese in the city from mile end hipsters, then head down to this small cafe in Mille for the perfect illy espresso. There is also a big selection of freshly made paninis. All are simple, fresh with great ingredients. The parma with prosciutto di parma is a great choice, very tasty. All in all a great place to satisfy your espresso craving or a light lunch.
illy espresso 9.5/10
tasty paninis 9/10

i could swear that it was your international correspondent who told you to go there…..one should know the Amore tuna panini was appropriately named. Italian tuna, artichoke and roasted garlic spread and provolone cheese….that is true love to me.
When in the area, it is recommended that you save room for a bagel, lox and cream cheese from Fairmont Bagel two doors down. If you are daring enough to have this second course, you must have your bagel made by Jen. She knows how to make it right. Cream cheese on both sides of the hot black seed bagel and just the right amount of lox. Then you walk back over to, as i like to call it the “cafe” and you smile at Joe behind the counter and he will drizzle some lemon olive oil on you bagel and then you can sit outside and enjoy the anonymity that mile end has to offer.
