Omnia Coffee Roasters is open for takeout. A maximum of five customers are allowed at a time. Masks are mandatory. There are floor markers and hand sanitizer at the counter.
Omnia is a cafe roasting up its coffee beans next to the motorcycle shop Flying Squirrel. It s run by Sameer Mohamed, the owner of Fahrenheit Coffee.
The inside space of this spot in Leslieville has the three motorbikes lining the wall, massive windows, and tall steel industrial ceilings.
