More Than Coffee,
It's Community
Where It All Began
Every café has coffee, but not every café has a story. Ours began with friendship, countless cups of brew, and a shared dream.
Read Our Story
The Foundational Seed Sown
It all started with two friends – Shivneep and Arvind. Over years of studying, working, and late-night conversations, coffee was always at the heart of their bond. Not just as a drink, but as a ritual – the pause between chaos, the warmth in cold evenings, and the spark behind many of their ideas.
During one of those conversations, the realization struck: “What if we created a space where coffee wasn’t just served, but celebrated? A place where every cup told a story and every table felt like home.” That thought lingered, grew roots, and eventually became the seed of City Side Café.
The Dream Transforms To Reality
Fast forward to today: in 2025, City Side Café opens its doors in Brampton. What began as an idea over steaming mugs is now a living, breathing space for the community.
The dream is no longer theirs alone – it belongs to every person who steps in, every friend who gathers here, and every story written over a shared cup.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to make every coffee experience memorable. We believe that a great cup of coffee can spark inspiration, brighten your day, and bring people together. Whether it’s a quiet moment for yourself, a lively conversation with friends, or a place where new ideas take shape, every sip here is a small celebration of connection, warmth, and joy.

We Believe Every Experience Should Be Memorable
We believe it’s not just about coffee – it’s about moments. A great cup fuels conversations, sparks ideas, and turns ordinary afternoons into memorable experiences.
Whether it’s a quiet pause for yourself, a laughter-filled gathering with friends, or a chance encounter that becomes a new connection, we create spaces where everyone feels welcome.
We care about every detail, from the warmth of our service to the comfort of our space because the experience matters as much as the coffee in your cup.
We reject pretension, celebrate simplicity, and never settle for ordinary. Every day, we strive to make your visit better, brighter, and a little more magical.
Our mission is to bring the joy of great coffee and unforgettable moments to everyone who walks through our doors.
Coffee Sourcing Principles
Every coffee bean has a story, and ours is carefully nurtured from the very beginning. We source our beans directly from dedicated farmers, walking their hills and sharing their stories, ensuring every bean carries care and passion.
Once they arrive in Brampton, each batch is roasted locally, bringing out its fullest flavor and character. From the first fragrant aroma to the final sip, every cup is a celebration – connecting moments, people, and the love behind every roast.
