Overall, it’s a great establishment and the outdoor seating down in front of rubensteins is nice during the summer too!

I’m ashamed to say I didn’t check out Ada’s til last year. I got the po’grrrl w/a side arugula salad 3 times in a row bc it’s that good. I also enjoyed the breakfast burrito on their current menu (bold roasted potato vibes). The arugula salad had herbs mixed in, so I thought the spinach salad would have more going on than a $4.50 handful of spinach, but no, I won’t be getting that again.
I love that they have a no tipping policy bc they pay their staff a consistent living wage. I wish more restaurants would do the same.

Ada's I love you but please make your breakfast sandwich less vertical!!!! It's delicious but I need to unhinge my jaw to eat it, and it becomes very messy.

They may tell you to leave because of event. They should mention that before you make the order.

This shop is pure magic. Like, I walked in and the curation of books was everything I ever wanted to read. Found myself overwhelmed at times at just how much I wanted to pick up and delve into, knowing I can only go one book at a time! And there was such a genuine community feel in the air. Even for into an impromptu deep philosophical convo with one of the staff members. Love this place!

In this decade, a good bookstore is known for it's curated book selection. It tells you who they are. The character of this place is unimpeachable. It's clever, it's classy, it's like hanging out in the home of your smartest friend who always has something new to show you. Except my smartest friend was never so tidy.The staff is diverse, friendly, and charming. Tip them well please.The book selection ranges from graphic novels to technical manuals about obscure programming languages.There are some comfortable tables with clever contents in their shadow-box-table-tops. Have you ever seen a table light up when you put your bag on it? Have you ever seen a hundred compasses go crazy when your phone vibrates?There's supposed to be an office loft, but I haven't found it yet.I hesitate to mention that there's an attached bar with regular social gatherings. Look, it's a super nice spot and I don't want it to get too crowded, okay? Try and and keep it a secret ?.

Loved this place! Super yummy and the atmosphere was incredible. We got the Ra Ra Ras-poutine and the 1-up mushroom toast. The poutine was incredible. Not traditional poutine but tasty non the less. They also pay their employees a liveable wage and don't allow tips which I thought was incredible. Will definitely be coming back on my next trip!

Beautiful merging of bookstore and cafe. Great to peruse for a bit, and also a fantastic atmosphere to sit and work with a coffee and snack.

I've been going to Ada's on and off for years. Recently started stopping by regularly and attending their monthly game nights in the Lab.Their staff is so sweet and welcoming, and the whole place feels very comfy and queer-friendly/safe.They have great summer drinks and seasonal pastries right now. Low-key in love with their newest one, the raspberry croissant. It's the closest thing I've found to a decent raspberry cronut since leaving San Francisco ?

Ada's offers a small selection of high quality loose teas. They're mindful of appropriate water temperatures and steeping times. If you order a pot, they'll gladly offer a second infusion. I particularly enjoyed their Kodama Sencha, which has melon notes. Their seating can be suitable for reading while sipping; however, you may find that nearby conversations or their music with vocals to be distracting depending on the nature of your reading material.
