I personally drink and love disgustingly cheap and unpretentious Maxwell House dark roast that I just bought today at $6.50 for a large can that will last me months. I guess I'm trash that way.

Hipsters annoy the shit outta me haha, but damn can they cook and make a drink. Well, and while none of their weird products service me, they take life into their own hands and add new flavour to neighbourhoods.
Then they talk and ruin it, but I digress
Thanks for the heads up, will try Parkline!

I wonder how successful that space would be if P+M were open....

Harvard is actively marketing the CRU in parkade along Albert, if they could land some tenants there that could bring some life back to that corner.

Whoops, beat me to it haha! Exciting on both counts, as Albert could use some life.
Anyone know if that restaurant in there is any good?
