Daily Projects Coffee Bar & Eatery

Very pretty venue with great tasting coffee! Will go again. The menu is expansive and the food is quality.

We went when it was quite busy, and a few things could have been better.

When you order coffee, they don't ask for a name or give you a number. As a result, there was lots of confusion about whose coffee was whose after it was made. I'm pretty sure another customer got my order as they ordered the same thing after but claimed the first made (How would they have known not to?).

Food is brought to a sign they give you at ordering, but perhaps because it was busy, these weren't always collected after food was delivered. And, since you have to get your coffee at the counter but food at your table, there were many numbers at tables with no people, or worse, food at tables unattended while people stood for their coffee. It'd be nice if coffee and food could be brought together so this wasn't the case.

Besides these few hiccups, it was a perfect experience. And, I'm sure, these are only issues when it's really busy.

Edit: Been back in less busy times. Service has been great each time. Above comments still stand, but I figure now I'm a regular they deserve 5 vs 4 stars.

The coffee here is amazing and the drinks are always unique. However, there are two areas where ants come in right by the tables (this has been a persistent issue). Coffee 5/5 Everything else is a solid 2.5/5

Liah made a killer Nutella latte! Always great service and love the atmosphere here

Left this review on Yelp and figured it also belonged here:

Always happy to come in and give some money to this business. The drinks are always thought over by the staff and you can expect a very clean/easy experience. I'm a cafe worker at a local Barnes and Noble and the one thing that consistently impressed me about Daily Projects is the work they put in to achieve a friendly atmosphere. The staff is great and pays a lot of attention to making sure the regulars feel welcomed. For example, as someone who isn't allowed to ask people to wear a mask at my job, I can guarantee you that while the policy might lead to a couple grumbling reviews from people who had never stepped foot in the place previously, there are a dozen more considerate people who were silently appreciating that the staff had their backs.

In times like these, when I'm not eating out too much anyways, this is exactly the kind of spot I feel justified in spending my money. Go support these guys! Keep up the good work DP!

I was only in the area for a few hours and looking for a not-Starbucks to get coffee and chill with a book. This place-- atmosphere alone-- is a great place to get coffee and chill with a book. Will definitely return!

I have driven by this place before several times when I had to travel on Algonquin Rd. to get to the place I used to work at and never knew what it was. Last week I met my mangers for the curtain place I work at here for a one-on-one meeting. I looked up the menu online and was happy to find 3 drinks that would interest me. As someone who has issues with dairy, I was happy to see that there were non-dairy alternatives to be added to drinks if need be. Also, I saw a wonderful treat on the menu that I wanted to give a try as well.

I had a hard time deciding between the 3 drinks ((midnight moon lemonade, hibiscus shaker which has coconut milk already in it, and hibiscus berry sparkling iced tea)), but I was able to settle on one, which was the midnight moon lemonade made with butterfly blue tea and lemonade. I'm so glad that I got this drink because it tasted so good and it was such a lovely color as well! It does need to be mixed up, so you don't get a mouth full of the syrup that's within it. Even my mangers though that the color of the drink looked awesome.

It was still socially distanced inside of the building, but we were still able to find a spot to sit and it felt nice and comfortable inside as well. I liked all the art work on the walls and all the other decor that was scattered around as well. We sat at the long table in the middle of one of the rooms and I didn't feel as if there were a lot of people hovering around and breathing down my neck. It was pretty quiet in there and we kept our voices at a nice volume, but there was one guy on a Zoom Meeting, so he was a lot louder than everyone else within the building. Kind of annoying and I even felt embarrassed as well, even though I didn't know this guy.

The only reason I'm docking one star is because THE KITCHEN CLOSES AT 2PM!!!! Yes, that needs to be in all caps because I know there are people who are going to go there and hope for a warm treat only to be disappointed that the kitchen is closed. I was looking forward to the fruit waffle, as I'm a dog walker and was out walking dogs all day before the meeting, so I was really hungry! I was so upset when I found out that I couldn't get the waffle because my meeting time was after 2pm. I ended up getting a chocolate crescent from the pasty case. It held me over for the walk I had after the meeting, but it wasn't something I could live off of. I noticed that their hours are pretty 'short', as it looks like they close at either 4 or 5pm, but I wish they'd keep the kitchen open until closing, so anyone who stops by can grab something warm and fresh to eat.

The environment is super cute and trendy. The menu offers a variety and your not so basic coffee selections. This place is great to get work done or just to have a coffee and enjoy small talk with friends! Coffee and food options are great!

The coffee shop and it’s ambience is great, the staff is amazing and very efficient, however it’s disappointing and horrible to find out that the baristas do not receive any tips at all, whether they are cash or card, and it all just goes to the owners. The baristas put in a lot of work and should be receiving their tips.

Edited to say that the sandwiches here are AMAZING. Only had pastries before which were great, but the egg bagel and chicken pesto sandwiches that my fiance and I just devoured were EXCELLENT. You will wait a bit longer for the sandwiches because they're not frozen nonsense.
Great food with great variety of flavors for both coffee and food! Their cookies are great for dunking in coffee too!
Super nice folks, too! Always happy to give my pup a puppaccino 😉

great atmosphere and unique drinks
