Cherry Bomb has been an institution - taking over the reigns of this coffee sampling mecca known as Ron-Cees. A quick stroll away from Queen W& High Park it's ideal for those that enjoy the outdoors and family-orientated spaces.  Locals might commute here on weekends to taken in this neighbourhood filled with Polish/Ukrainian bakeries and wholesome eateries.

A fan favourite of mine - Cherry Bomb, with its' in-house bakery makes me stop in my tracks to drink a cup of coffee.
Be sure to sit at the window and people watch the traffic, or construction of the century - revitalizing Ronsecvalles...
