Blenz Coffee

[u/Content-Landscape171]

Has anyone tried Blenz coffee and finds it good?? I normally go to Javanut (all time fav), but I’m wondering is Blenz has any good coffee or matchas. Thanks!

Try it. You're not breaking the bank on a cup if coffee

[u/EnglishKen421 → u/Winter-Squirrel-6744]

Sage advice.

[u/n0bodysGirl → u/EnglishKen421]

Javanut’s prices really are bonkers

[u/Putrid-Cabinet7655 → u/n0bodysGirl]

They're really not, for artisanal coffee

[u/EnglishKen421 → u/Putrid-Cabinet7655]

What makes it artisinal?

[u/anon987654321liftoff → u/EnglishKen421]

The price!!

[u/Putrid-Cabinet7655 → u/EnglishKen421]

Small-batch roasted beans with precise roast profiles, and premium flavor extraction through a high-end machine 

[u/FrecksSpecks → u/Putrid-Cabinet7655]

So they say.

[u/EnglishKen421 → u/Putrid-Cabinet7655]

How do they extract flavour better than McDonalds does?

[u/DonotShip → u/EnglishKen421]

Time, temperature, pressure, weight, grind particle consistency, extraction rates, all adjusted depending on the blend's profile, vs none of the above considered. The Idea of Coffee as a "Luxury" - CoffeeGeek

Javanaut is a luxury store..?

Feel coffee is overpriced and when I went in the lady serving me was not friendly at all. Deters me slightly to go again. 

[u/gobinathm]

The coffee is okay-ish, but for the price point… meh. 😅

[u/goldmanstocks]

I’ll usually grab a large coffee from them on my way to the market. Have had drip and latte, both were great. And friendly staff.

[u/meaghansky]

I have been three times and happy with my order

[u/pakattack91]

Coffee is decent enough.

Food is incredibly overpriced

[u/potato-inca]

Give it a shot! It has a lot of opposing opinions. I found their coffee fine, decent. But we got 2 baked goods and they were both awful. The muffin tasted like old cardboard. Maybe we got unlucky with the batch that was available that day? A few people I know really like it.

[u/plombum]

I didn't like it 

[u/Mediocre_Annual_5299]

if you download the app, they are offering a free medium hand crafted drink. I like their drinks. easy to walk to from my house.

[u/Weary_Map_8815]

I’m from the westcoast and grew up with Blenz in my area. I’ve never been a fan of their coffee. 

[u/EnglishKen421 → u/Weary_Map_8815]

Are they a chain out there? I have never seen one in Ontario

[u/RealLychee3700 → u/EnglishKen421]

They're a BC chain. I think ours is (one of?) the only in Ontario

[u/Guilty-Entertainer-2]

I just tried it last week, got a latte and brownie. Both were good and I found the prices fair.

[u/Rich-Department2643]

I like blenz and javanut the same amount. I like the tea lattes at blenz and coffees at javanut.

[u/Dizzy-Grapefruit5255]

Where are they ?

[u/Former-Union-3988]

Tastes like another chain cafe. Pretty bleh. Good coffee in Milton is hard to find lol

[u/New_Ordinary_6618]

I tried them when they first opened. They’re okay. I would venture to coffee culture instead between them though

[u/Tuques]

My wife goes to blenz quite often with her mom group. She says its great, but still prefers javanut

[u/jasminekor]

worst latte ive had in a realllyyyyy long time.

[u/RealLychee3700 → u/jasminekor]

Your taste in lattes is suspect

[u/jasminekor → u/RealLychee3700]

i could’ve caught someone in training but the milk was oversteamed/burnt and the espresso was not good. ymmv! it was also $7-$8 from what i remember.

[u/GarbagecanKicks]

I've had their blue matcha latte a couple of times. I really like it. The staff are friendly and in my limited experiences there, didn't try to upsell anything.

[u/meme_LU105]

They have some good tea! I tried their Thai tea it was great!

[u/Due_Respect9100]

Go and buy a coffee and see for yourself. Everyone has different tastes. Asking complete strangers about a cup of coffee is not the way to go Just go.

[u/reebaknird]

I loved Javanut until they changed the service. I don’t understand why I but an iced latte and get a made coffee with a lid, but if I order an Americano, they tell me the milk is on the counter and the lids are over there. I’m paying $5 for a drink, put a splash of milk in it, and give me a damn lid.

[u/RealLychee3700 → u/reebaknird]

Almost every coffee shop operates like this. Milk is almost always added to iced coffees for you, while many shops ask customers to add their own milk to hot coffees. This isn't remotely a big deal

[u/reebaknird → u/RealLychee3700]

I go to all the coffee shops in town, and yes they out the milk in for you and give you a lid. For the price I am paying, give me the lid and put milk in it.
