Wonderful little gem of a cafe inside Wycliffe college!! The chicken burrito is one of the best I've ever had and all the food is so fresh! I made a mistake with my order and the staff were so friendly with getting it resolved. There is also lots of seating if you want to chat with friends, read, or get work done!

As a student I find most of the campus spots very heavy, but I never have that heavy, gross feeling after eating a meal here; the food is very clean! I normally look for protein and veggies in my meal, so my usuals here are the burrito bowl, and the BBQ chicken served with rice and salad. Both dishes are very flavorful and clean. Additionally, the staff are extremely kind, and service is great. A Meal usually is about $13+, and is more affordable than most campus dining halls. Whether you are a UofT student, or just someone passing by, I highly recommend this place.

This has been a go to for me for my 3 years at UofT (starting when it was located in Innis, it is now in Wycliffe right by Hart House) One of the best places to get vegan and vegetarian meals on campus, and for very fair prices! I have loved their juices as well, freshly made on the spot. Also amazing service, everyone is super kind. There is plenty of seating always too (at least when I have gone)

Fresh, hot food at a student's price. Portions are very generous, especially for the price. Lots of vegetarian options and a diverse cafe menu. And best of all, the staff are warm and friendly. The atmosphere in historic Wycliffe College makes for a lovely ambiance.

Yes, this is really good place to eat burrito or sandwich or cake during the staying in the neighbourhood. Very climatic and calm place with fantastic, young and kind team.

I love this family-run restaurant! The relaunch of Innis Cafe is finally back. The food is very good. Today I had the burger with bacon and egg. So tasty and fresh, especially with that magic sauce. Also had the tomato pasta soup which was excellent. But even better than the food are the people. So friendly, warm, and kind. I have used them for catering in the past and it was great. The setting is cool as well, in Wycliffe College's classic and bright Refectory.

I'm a Wycliffe grad and very grateful that Acacia moved in to the building! The food is so delicious and prepared so well and the owner is so nice. Highly recommend!
