Photo of Café Alphabet, a Café in Mile End

This charming nouveau Greek café in Mile End is the brainchild of brothers Tony and Tom Argiropoulos, where they pay homage to their heritage through decor and meticulously crafted coffee. Roasted by Ambros, their specialty coffee roasting company, each brew is easily savored either straight or in one of their signature Freddo cappuccinos, a Greek classic, or their Instagrammable Freddo Matcha Amours. Beyond beverages, Alphabet has great pastries and sandwiches, and all told, it’s a superb hangout where community and culture converge.
