Tucked into the Ossington strip, Forget Me Not Coffee on Ossington feels like a secret garden hidden in plain sight. Set slightly back from the sidewalk, this café reveals itself slowly: a quiet entrance, a cozy interior, and a tree-shaded patio tucked behind the shop that feels a world away from the busy buzz of Queen West and Ossington. It’s the kind of spot you only notice once, and then can’t stop returning to.

The space inside is small but welcoming, filled with curated touches that reflect the same care put into every drink. Soft lighting, warm wood, and a gentle playlist create the perfect atmosphere for a midday pause or a weekend wind-down. It’s not built for deep work or long hours, it’s built for enjoying the moment, one beautiful sip at a time.

Known for its viral drink items, Forget Me Not doesn’t just serve coffee, it serves experiences. The Banana Bread Matcha Latte is nostalgic and cozy, while the Dalgona Latte delivers a sweet, cloud-like finish that feels both retro and new. More than novelty drinks, they’re thoughtfully executed and visually beautiful, turning everyday coffee runs into something worth remembering.

Outside, the small patio is one of Ossington’s hidden gems: leafy, calm, and effortlessly charming. It’s the perfect setting for a quiet catch-up, a solo moment with a latte, or a mid-walk reward.

Forget Me Not Coffee on Ossington thrives not on flash, but on feeling. A little moment of retreat, just off one of the city’s trendiest streets.
