7 West Cafe

Came here twice for brunch. Both times. A wonderful experience. Very quaint interior decor. Pretty tight seating. Dec 2024: had raspberry cocktail (home made), Charlotte smoked Benedict

We stumbled across this place trying to get out of the rain and were delighted by the vibe, and the food was delicious. Great staff and a Toronto classic, having been around for 29 plus years. We dined on the main floor and were curious to see the other floors but didn’t head up stairs. Clean bathrooms, the coffee was great and the desserts looked incredible.

We had dinner at this café and enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere, though the tables were a bit too close together. The drink selection was impressive, and the menu offered a wide variety of options. They also had a special offer on bottled drinks, which was a nice touch. So we had a bottle of Shiraz red wine, and we started with poutine as an appetizer—both were excellent. For the main course, we had lasagna and a Greek salad, both of which were of good quality.

Love it here! Came here on a Tuesday around 11 and stayed until 4am. They let you study if they’re not busy and if you continue ordering snacks and drinks. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Theres two levels which is cozy but not very spacious. Upstairs is really beautiful. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Only mistake is that I ordered a warm apple cider since it’s fall season but they gave me the alcoholic one in a can, I tried asking for the warm one but they looked confused.

Nice Old Toronto bar type feeling. I wish the upper floors were open when I visited. I enjoyed all the food, it was all fresh. The menu wasn't too complicated. For price to food- the poutine was my tables favorite. Only 12$ for such a large portion! The gravy and cheese were perfect. The bruschetta was awesome, tasted very fresh and honestly it was a lot to have alone. Id recommend splitting the app to leave room for the main. Also had a couple sandwiches, that were great but a little bit over toasted. I personally would not recommend the Grilled Cheese, as it felt like cheap square cheese on wonder bread. Other wise all the food was great, especially the pesto stuff 🤤

I really liked my experience here. I went in the morning on a friday when they have their $10 breakfast special. They don’t mention this special when you’re in the restaurant, or maybe i missed it, so i’d check online on their website to see if this special is still occurring before going in thinking they’ll have the special. The restaurant was busy, but staff was still very attentive and work very quickly, so I was really happy with the service, given the circumstance. I really like that I was given a glass jug of water for me to pour my own water. I drink a lot of water, so it was nice that I didn’t have to call for a staff member to refill my water every time. Food came out in a timely manner and the food was really good, especially for the price. I would go again and bring some friends if the special is still available in the future.

Best Mac and cheese in the city! Order it with bacon and indulge in a delicious meal. This location is the ultimate after-party destination when you’re downtown. Staff is always on point and the chefs know what they’re doing! Restaurant itself is quite compact, so big groups isn’t the best move unless you get lucky. Intimate dining experience and dim lighting makes it feel really elegant. I’ll be back soon enough after a night out, thanks for always doing a great job!

7 West Cafe has a wonderful ambience and I really enjoyed the restaurant space. My friend and I got pasta, and our respective choices were both amazing. My friend got the Pesto Pollo which was so fragrant and tasted just as exquisite as it looked. I got the mac and cheese and I added chicken to it. The mac and cheese may not have a traditional yellow hue, but don’t be fooled. This cafe’s mac and cheese is some of the best I’ve ever had. I look forward to going back and trying more of their menu.
