Nice cold brew from this cafe. It tastes good. Their use of espresso is very wise in the way that the taste will not be diluted by the ice cubes. The aftertaste is also nice and lingering. I also appreciate the attendant. When I dropped by and wanted to try their coffee, I found that the cafe just closed. However, the attendant was so nice that he was willing to take up an extra work. He offered cold brew or Americano to me. Appreciate very much his friendliness and diligence. Bravo. Next I will try their matcha drinks as I learn that their matcha drinks worth a try. The cafe is clean. The sunroom is spacious. A wonderful cafe which can offer quiet time in a commercial and industrial area in Richmond Hill.

Absolutely loved my visit to this cozy cafe! Tried their new Forest Latte and wow—it was amazing! The hojicha was super smooth and toasty, and the matcha foam on top added the perfect refreshing touch. Such a cozy and unique drink combo. The vibe of the cafe was great and the staff were really friendly. Definitely coming back for another one soon! :)

The perfect study spot in Richmond Hill! Love their matcha, but they have an other offerings ranging from coffee to protein shakes. The cafe is very conducive to study - offering lots of seating & tables large enough for laptops. There are are also charging ports at certain seats for longer sessions. Definitely note though that parking might be a bit difficult to find at peak times.

Amazing atmosphere and vibes! This coffee shop has great ambience and a very cozy atmosphere to meet, perfect for a chat with friends, or to have a day for yourself. I had a matcha latte and oat milk latte, and the match was great but the oat milk latte could have been better. One of the few actual coffee shops in the area and that is locally-owned, give them a visit if you can!

Cozy new cafe! Highly recommend the condensed milk latte and iced condensed cream latte - perfectly creamy with bold coffee flavour. The interior was cozy and had a few seats by the training gym. There is limited parking at the front. The owner/staff was kind and even gave us a blueberry muffin! Happy to have found a new hidden gem

You know when a place just gets coffee? Rise Coffee does. I had both a Flat White and a Condensed Milk Latte — and honestly, both were phenomenal. The latte art alone told me the barista was well-practiced — sharp, clean lines and a steady hand. It’s the little details that set great coffee apart, and Rise Coffee nails them. Like the coffee, the space is thoughtfully executed — clean and minimalist without feeling lifeless. It’s a place where you could lose an afternoon without even realizing it.

Such a beautiful and calming space—everything from the layout to the small details is so thoughtfully designed. The Forest Latte is absolutely delicious—smooth, flavorful, and unlike anything I’ve had before. Excited to come back and try more from the menu. Definitely a new favorite spot!

A hidden gem of a cafe in the area! Unique drinks with lots of flavour. Plenty of cozy seating as well. The condensed milk cream latte is a must try! This will be my go-to spot in the area now .
