I always come here to study or meet up with friends. If there are any bad reviews it's due to me laughing too loud with friends. But what can I say, it's a joyful environment.
Personally, every time I walk into holy grounds, I see Mark Chasuk, and he just makes me feel at home. Their coffee is also good.

Lovely atmosphere and great drinks! Always love coming here and running into friends. Studying can be a bit of a challenge since there's always people chattering, but if you don't have hard deadlines, it's a good place to work and socialize at once.
