    the place is beyond cute and comfortable to sit in! I loved being in this place. It was surrounded by plants that you could purchase and a bunch of other things such as coffee, juices, aprons, etc. I ordered the brown sugar coffee and had a very nice taste. Not too sweet and it tasted like there was cardamom in it? Not sure but it was good and I would get it again. They also do some basic coffee art which is always a nice touch. I also ordered the sandwich of the day and by the looks of the picture below it seems boring and basic but it was very flavourful and I really enjoyed it! They also have a loyalty program for purchasing coffee. Great reason to go back as well. Some vegan items too. Wish I tried the baked goods but will save that for next time. Service was great and staff were super friendly.

    Can’t go wrong with this local coffee shop! The staff is always friendly, the drinks and baked goods always hit the spot, and the atmosphere is cozy. We only wish it was in a bigger place so there’d be more seating available!

    What a gem!!! The coffee is delicious and the food...well I had a morning bagel with hard boiled egg, extra crispy bacon, special sauce on a cheese bagel and it was the BEST bagel I have ever had!!! I can;t wait to go back!!! Cute tiny shop with lots of gluten free choices. No tables inside and only a few outside so we hit the nearest park to sit and enjoy our goodies!

    Loved the place. The giner molasses cookie was moist and flavorful. My husband's bagel sandwich was delicious and our drinks were hot. But I do not like to eat with animals. I was worried as one patron held his dog over the pick up counter. Fortunately my order wasn't up yet. I didn't want fur or dog dandruff dropping in my teacup. Another patron's dog was tall enough to reach the counter. I wonder if the counter is disinfected between dog visits. When staff pet dogs do they wash their hands afterwards? New research is circulating on parasites that humans who breath indoor air with cats and dogs have in their bodies. Even without that research I prefer to eat with people not animals.

    It was my first time. I enjoyed my oatmilk cappuccino and had curried sweet potato soup which was very flavorful and yummy. They have a nice selection of gluten free items and I even bought a few cookies to go and they didn't make it home as I ate them on the way. Can't wait to be back.

    I am so excited to rate this spot today. I feel like I just discovered my new favourite spot. I recommend this place to anyone who is new to the city and is looking for cafe spots to try. I had the vanilla latte and it was really nice. I also enjoyed the vibe. The staff are really friendly and welcoming as well. I will definitely being going back to try other items on their menu.

    Fantastic place. Great atmosphere, great food, great coffee. I got the spiced brown sugar latte iced with oat milk - divine! And the soup of the day + focaccia, all vegan.

    We ordered a matcha, coffee and the feature sandwich. Everything was SO SMALL! We were shocked. We said we were sharing the sandwich and the lady at the counter said it would be enough. The sandwich was literally the size of my palm. It was so expensive too. We won’t be back. Also put off by the 30 min limit on seating.

    By far my favourite coffee shop ever! I can’t say enough good things about this place. The food is always incredible, from the cookies to the sandwiches. Their coffee is something really special. I feel like a lot of coffee shops claim to have special coffee, but I can really taste the quality in this one. Also absolutely love the staff! They are all so friendly and attentive and make me feel welcome. I wish there wasn’t a time limit cause I could read in there for hours, but I understand they get busy.

    Had a breakfast bagel and it was meh. Kind of fell apart. 6.2/10. Limited seating for a busy cafe. Had to sit at the window in some uncomfortable bar stools. My date and I didn't like them and does anybody really enjoy sitting in those. Would be better if you lowered the seating area at the window and put in regular chairs. Maybe some charging stations?

    We ordered for a work lunch and everything was so delicious! We ordered the lunch sandwiches, Garden Salad and cookies for 30. I even had a special request for the cookies to be cut in half and they were happy to accommodate with smaller sized cookies. Also I'd love to know how they make the carrots.. I am obsessed! So fresh, so good and arrived right on time. Highly recommend.

    Very nice coffee shop. The iced vanilla latte and veggie bagel are really delicious. Only con about this place is the parking. Very hard to find a parking spot in this area.

  • 4/5 Ciara M. 6 months ago on Google
    Wonderful food and friendly staff! Good vibes there. Little but pricy but you know you are getting quality food/coffee with unique recipes. If you're looking for a good Cafe this is one of the first on my list in windsor!

  • 5/5 Rob P. 10 months ago on Google
    Amazing coffee and beverage offerings along with delicious bakery options at savory lunch menu items. Really cannot go wrong with anything on their menu. Staff is always cheery and accommodating with a positive atmosphere.

    I've been going to Anchor for years since their original location on Huron Church. Love the varied menu and vegan/gf options. The seasonal beverages are always fun too!

  • 5/5 Kayanne 2 years ago on Google
    vanilla latte was amazing. very cute place and can't wait to go back. absolutely would recommend trying it out if you haven't stopped in.

  • 5/5 Andre D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food, great coffee, friendly staff, and fair prices. Can't ask for much more. 10/10. Would get coffee and breakfast from again.

  • 5/5 Rob P. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious coffee, tasty food, knowledgeable and very friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, generous pricing, this Walkerville gem has it all. Best Flat White I’ve had in quite some time. Very busy at lunchtime so you know the word is out!

  • 5/5 DamanJeet B. 1 year ago on Google
    Love their food every single time! Their baked cookies, bread etc are delicious as well, so are the soups. Must try their veggie panini and feta+spinach strudel. Yumm! Coffee is good too, with plant-based alternatives to regular milk available. They also have merchandise, coffee, plants as well to sell. Seating is limited though I would say and it's usually busy, so that could be something to modify. But otherwise, it's a wonderful coffee place and I highly recommend checking out this "cute little neighborhood coffee place" 😊 P.S. I love their coffee cups - easy to hold with a spot for your thumb! 😃

  • 5/5 Juan 1 year ago on Google
    Best tomato soup I've ever had. Watermelon lemonade is also delicious. Highly recommend!

  • 4/5 Suvi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place BUT they need to figure out a better way of storing their baked food on the counter. It’s open and has no lids covering the food besides one small glass divider and there are always flies landing on the cookies and bread even in the winter. Just put some glass lids over all of the separate trays and it would keep everything fresh and bugs off.

    Everything is always so delicious! My favourite London Fog in the city. They offer gluten free and vegan options as well. They also sell cute plants and other items. Definitely worth checking out!

  • 5/5 Rachel N. 1 year ago on Google
    I recently went to Anchor for the first time to pick up some goodies for a friend's birthday. I was very impressed! Their employees were extremely helpful and kind. When I received the catering, it was some of the best treats I've ever had. They even provided me with some extra scones which I was able to share with some coworkers. I wish I could give a higher rating than 5/5 as they deserve it. Thanks again Anchor!

  • 5/5 Nick A. 2 years ago on Google
    I can't begin to describe the eclectic, warm, and welcoming ambiance that Anchor Coffee House has created for its patrons. The staff are unimaginably patient, kind, and knowledgeable about their products and offer service that has been hidden to me until now. Everyone who enters this cafe will have a phenomenal experience all their own and will be coming back time and time again. Thank you Anchor Coffee House. You have set the bar for what a small local coffee shop should be.

  • 5/5 Jennifer C. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow! Clearly loved and for good reason! Arrived shortly after they opened on Saturday morning and there was already a line! But it was totally worth it. The food was great! We were in a hurry, but if we had time I would have loved to soak in the atmosphere and enjoy the sunshine on their patio.

    This place is a warm, cozy, refreshing, breath of fresh air. A space where complete strangers are immediately connected by a cup of impeccable coffee or sweet treat. The staff interaction between every customer is genuine, and joyful. A must go to if in Windsor.
