- pillow seats, big, spacious, feels like you’re in a real brewhouse / distillery
- big window, natural light; perfect if u r a plant
- they have these cool remote-controlled curtains that they control from the bar to adjust for glare
- one of the motors on the ceiling that controlled these curtains once fell and nearly beheaded me but it was still a good experience (?)
- right next to the CAMH emergency intake so there’s really no better place to have an anxiety attack

Rustle and Still
https://g.page/rustleandstill

- vietnamese coffee and bahn mi
- the bahn mi is actually pretty good here. i don’t usually get overpriced foods from cafés, but i always get a bahn mi when i’m here (it’s not even overpriced! like ~$11ish)
- the “deluxe” has pâté. it’s so. good. it’s like the creamy feeling of something that has a lot of fat, but you don’t feel disgusting afterwards? it’s creamy and LIGHT. definitely changes the game
- but all of them are great. garlicky jumbo shrimp? char siu pork? all bites of heaven.
- nice airy bright environment, feels very... japanese zen garden? it’s a good vibe
