In 2007 a rundown laundromat in the Haultain Corners was leased by Michael Manhas, and a transformation of sorts began. Weary of the grande eggnog latte and the double skim pumpkin-pie macchiato, Michael wanted to create a neighbourhood coffee house that would serve only the highest quality espresso, and in only two sizes. The shoddy building was given new life and koffi was created. The doors opened in November of 2007 and the café quickly became the focal point of the Haultain Corners and a neighbourhood retreat.
Koffi has strived to create a warm and friendly atmosphere, serve only the highest quality products, and play a role in bettering our community. We have partnered with like minded businesses, and continue in making this neighbourhood a better place to live.
Koffi serves every hot and cold drink you can think of, well not really, but we do have a lot. We feature Canterbury coffee and usually have a medium and dark roast on special. Our espresso is a 90-point single origin called Toscano, featuring hints of caramel and nuts. Some of our alternative coffee drinks are chai latte, London fog, hot chocolate, and matcha lattes. During the summer our iced and blended drinks are quite popular for cooling off from the heat.
We like to think we can bake anything at koffi but really we prefer to leave it to the pros. We have partnered with local bakeries such as Cakes Etc, Origins Bakery, Simply Sweet and Patisserie Daniel. We also have Panini's, which are made in house. Trust us when we say you will never leave koffi hungry!
Nothing goes better with meetings than koffi. Let us cater your business meeting or luncheon, by bringing our fantastic coffee and wonderful baked goods to you. We work with schools, businesses and non-profits. A menu can be tailored to your group, big or small. Please contact us for pricing.

Koffi loves to feature local artists and their works. The art wall is approximately 22' x 12' and can feature several pieces of work, big or small. The artist has 2 weeks to display their work and can hold a "meet the artist night/afternoon" in which they can invite friends and family to enjoy their art. Our calendar fills fast so don't hesitate to contact us at koffiart@gmail.com.
