Meet the owner

Coincidentally sharing its name with the famous dance theatre in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Tango Palace Coffee Co. has brought a piece of European style to the Queen East strip in Toronto’s Leslieville neighbourhood. “We like personality,” says owner Jeff Marsh. “That’s something that sets us apart from the robotic service standards that are set by most chains.”

In the early 90s, Jeff and Tango Palace barista Valentine worked for a large coffee chain. It was here they first developed a taste for the world of coffee. In April 1993, Jeff decided to branch out and open Tango Palace.

Since then, Jeff has worked hard to establish the indie coffeehouse as one of the neighbourhood’s best café’s with a unique and personable atmosphere. Indeed, regulars covet the eclectic ambiance, which offers a distinct departure from the corporately owned café along the strip. The bronze detailing, plush, crimson chairs and Romanesque statue on the wall make an afternoon here feels like a visit to the home of a 1930’s Spanish artist.

Happening late night spots in Toronto for non-drinkers

For Leslievillers, Tango Palace Coffee Co. is a favourite late-night hideout. A fixture since 1993, this warm and cozy café has a loyal community who came for the coffee but stayed for the music and the crimson velvet armchairs. Not your average hipster hangout, Tango Palace brings a Victorian style to the Queen East strip, boasting ultra fresh micro-roasted coffee in addition to a wide selection of teas, hot chocolate and other warm bevies. For last minute snacks, they always have some homemade pizza and salad, but their specialty is their pies and brownie cakes. Open ‘til 11 pm.

With its eclectic light fixtures and plush armchairs, this funky Leslieville coffeehouse feels a bit like your great aunt’s living room, in a good way. The boho interior might be a bit distracting at first, but you can get some serious work done at this eastside spot thanks to the solid Wi-Fi signal and relaxed musical selections on the soundtrack. The café is open until 11 p.m. most nights so feel free to settle in for a late-night laptop session.
