An epic combination
Homestead Artisan Bakery and Epic North coffee roasters teamed up for a truly epic endeavor, opening a new space in the heart of downtown Barrie, right across from Meridian square.
Epic North offer up their fresh roast single origin coffees at the espresso bar - which is pulled from their shiny new Rocket Boxer. Pair that with freshly baked sourdough bread and other goodies Homestead are known for.
Bohemia cafe
- 125 Dunlop St E, Barrie, ON L4M 1A6
Perfect for the conversationalist. You won't see laptops lining the tables of Bohemia. Personal favorite is a double shot of this espresso on ice. Your lips will soon crave the rich crema.
Sanctifying the ordinary
Priding itself on putting a modern twist on old fashioned recipes - Bohemia is obsessed with preserved lemons, dark chocolate and roasted pears, scones with lemon and currants, amber marmalade and the smell of sourdough baking.
Casa Cappuccino Cafe
- 91 Dunlop St. E Barrie, Ontario L4M 1A
Casa Cappuccino has a "community" vibe going on. It's right beside Meridian Square in downtown Barrie and a hub of activity. It's decor is dated but the coffee hits the mark.
The Vegan Pantry bakery and cafe
- 34 Ross St Barrie, Ontario L4N 1E9
Dairy free latte?
Craving a latte but need it to be dairy free? This vegan bakery may be the spot for you. They focus on a full vegan menu for people with gluten, dairy, egg and soy sensitivities.
The Vegan Pantry has enough sweet goodness to melt your sugary soul. Their specialty drinks are changing daily and worth a shot, or two.
