The brick room
About
In ON M5J 2T3, The brick room is a cozy haven for matcha enthusiasts. Visitors appreciate the unique underground location, describing it as a warm retreat from daily routines. Many note that while the quality of the matcha can be high, preparation methods often involve an excessive amount of ice. For example, the Banana Matcha Ceremony costs $13 after tax but reviewers find the size and taste not entirely worth the price. The Iced Matcha Latte is another popular choice, though some feel it's pricey for what they get. On the bright side, the Strawberry Coconut Matcha ($10) and Sweet Potato Matcha ($10) are praised for their creamy texture and refreshing flavors. Guests point out that limited opening hours can be a drawback but still find value in the experience. Additionally, while the service is generally friendly, some would like to see it improve.
