I'd heard good things about Red Brick Cafe and it lived up to it's reputation. It has a really great location in downtown Guelph. Charming old ivy-covered building with a nice little sidewalk patio for the summer. The atmosphere inside is nice, I loved all the wood and the decor featuring the work of local artists. Was thankful for free wifi. Staff seemed a little snooty, but not rude. Most importantly, the Americano was one of the best I've ever tasted.
I love the Red Brick. As crazy as it may sound, my favourite part of it is the walk to it. I love that it's talked away on a side street right on top of the side walk - gives it a very European feel.
I've had mixed experience with the service. It's never been bad, but it hasn't necessarily always been a positive. But the coffee has always more than made up for it.
The best coffee in Guelph, maybe even southwestern ontario, for approximately $2 you get the best coffee. I love the atmosphere there, it is warm, welcoming and homey. Great Service. I can't leave to school without getting a cup of coffee and a fresh muffin every morning.
People who where complaining about how crowded the place is, well personally, I prefer going to a place that is crowded rather than empty (this just means it is good)
