Little Nicky's Coffee



Tucked beside a loading dock off of Queen Street, Little Nicky's Coffee injects a welcome shot of personality into a retail strip resembling little more than an outdoor version of the Eaton Centre. Yes, they do serve up a fantastic cup of coffee in a neighbourhood saturated with Second Cups and Starbucks, but the real draw is the tiny homemade doughnuts! Tim Horton better watch his back!



There are loads of offices nearby which explains the surge of customers around 3pm. At the window an older lady gives business advice to her younger co-worker. 



This woman had so many shopping bags. SO many!



Some not-so-secret flirting next to the creme and sugar counter.



Construction worker defies the cliché and chooses Nicky's over Timmy's for his coffee and doughnut fix. 



Lots of people to draw standing in line. With my new pair of glasses, I can actually see them properly! 



Topshop bag? They have those in Canada?



Wicked pose on this girl!



This lady is the owner of the shop. Nicky is her pet chihuahua! 



The only laptop in the whole place, which is amazing.




Joking around behind the counter.



Cute blonde girl snatches a seat at the bar...



Ooh! I see how it is!
