The Cafe on Main (1455 Pelham St, Fonthill)
Back in my hometown and this area is dominated by Tim Hortons, so thought I'd check out the relatively new local cafe.
This place already has become known as a cultural hangout for artists (local art is on the walls), musicians (every Thursday is open mic night), and food (local sourced offerings) - rather then for its coffee. I found the coffee (its flavoured, ugh) sub par, but the atmosphere was great - I could have been in a bustling Toronto cafe, that's how authentic it felt. You don't get this environment at Tim Hortons.
I think it's quant and fits in well with the newly refurbished old downtown of Fonthill. We found a new gelato place called Village Gelato - walking distance just up the street and this was a perfect place to visit after the Cafe on Main.
