Autumn has finally arrived so what better time than now to gather friends and go cafe hopping around the city while also keeping up with school and staying productive!
As things dive deeper into semester one, work can get overwhelming and challenging very quickly. But, do not worry, cafes are here to help. Studying at a cafe can be beneficial and avoid burnout. In fact, a study done at the University of Illinois actually found that studying in coffee shops can be more effective and enhance performance!
Here are some of the best cafes to study in Toronto:
- The Birchcliff
Located at 1680 Kingston Rd (just a swift bus ride away from R.H. King Academy), The Birchcliff is the most convenient place to hit on a weekend morning and begin the day with an assignment and a sweet treat. The interior is a welcoming environment and a lovely patio can be found outside. They serve all the classic cafe drinks from iced coffee to seasonal autumn drinks and have a decent selection of desserts and sandwiches.
