DESSERT PLACE

385 Spadina Ave.

SPOT crepes & tea

Are you a dessert lover? Just steps from CampusOne, Spot Crepes and Tea is a hidden gem wedged between the many small restaurants on Spadina Ave. This little creperie and cafe is the perfect place to pick up your favourite desserts, including crepes, gelatos, and any of your favourite teas!

The staff are always very friendly and through the windows, you can see the kind lady delicately and artfully making your dessert on the spot.

As someone with a sweet tooth, my go-to order at Spot is the Strawberry Banana Nutella crepe with whipped cream. If you're ever in the mood for sweets this summer, this is a great spot to check out that is within walking distance from your home!
