Matter of Taste - Kitchener

Matter of Taste has been a staple cafe in our community. Bringing in community members from all over the region into the downtown core to connect over their variety of Espresso drinks , in house pastries and ice cream . Walk away with their roasted blends and different coffee making kits from their retail corner. Within easy access to all downtown amenities. The owners and baristas alike are super welcoming and friendly to new and regular customers alike! 5-stars for the coffee and customer service.

The Matter of Taste cafe is Kitchener's coffee secret. If you want to impress your big city friends with great coffee and a little local history, bring them here. I've been a customer since they opened years ago. I can only say great things about the owner or the staff. In case you haven't figured it out, I love this place.

Really fantastic coffee roasts. So far I have enjoyed French Mocha, Continental Dark, and South Pacific. They do delivery pickup. For online orders, you can customize the grind size if you want them to grind it for you. I’m newish to KW and I’d recommend trying Matter of Taste out if you are looking for good local coffee.

Their coffee is so good I ended up buying a pack of their beans! The one I tasted (and ended up buying a pack was called Traveller's and I drank it as a hot americano. I also loved their presentation (how they put much less water than usual like in Europe so the coffee can taste deeper, plus their cup, etc. making it hands-down my best coffee in Canada! Part of my appreciation might have been due to the sub-par experience (or disgust, more exactly that I had to endure previously at a McDonald's (which usually is above average , but who cares. Their coffee was good and I was so happy to be able to sip it somewhere else than in Europe!

Mellow with a touch of sophistication. Good coffee and friendly staff super friendly and not “snobbish” like in Toronto loved it! Kitchener is in a humongous gentrification process.
