Our Story
A Local Café with a Big Heart
A Habesha neighbourhood café on Danforth Avenue.
Morning Grace Coffee
Your neighbourhood coffee & breakfast spot
Megga Morning Grace Coffee is a Habesha café at 1696 Danforth Ave in Toronto's Danforth East. We pour espresso drinks and serve a full breakfast and brunch menu, from breakfast sandwiches and benedicts to omelettes, pancakes, burgers, Greek-style plates and vegetarian wraps.
It's a warm, relaxed room to meet friends, work for an hour or start the day slowly. The Danforth Mosaic BIA welcomed us as a new addition to Danforth East, and we're glad to be part of the neighbourhood. Plan your visit.
