Loved their granola bowl! When we visited, it was a bit loud due to their workout program next door, which made it hard to talk. But we still enjoyed the food and would love to come back to try other menu items!

Absolutely love Turf for their classes, bistro, and just honestly everything they advocate and stand for! Truly some of the most welcoming and adaptable workout classes I have ever taken part in and each of the instructors are great. All of the pastries I have had are genuinely to die for, as well as the amazing food and smoothie options! I also love their whole takeout/refrigerator section as well — it’s always so nice and convenient to have the easy grab and go products available. So far my favorite items have been the Turf Energy smoothie, Veggie Sausage Hash, and the Spicy Peanut Quinoa Crunch Bowl (pre-packaged)! Truly could not recommend Turf enough — quite honestly one of my favorite spots in the city!

I really love this place. It’s a great spot in a fun part of town that has amazing gluten free and dairy free as well as vegan options for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. The food is always on point and the staff is always great. Highly recommend the protein pancakes (if you are ready for something sweet!! They are surprisingly sweet) or any of the salads and toasts on sweet potato if GF!!

Try the chocolate zucchini loaf, it's delectable. Also love 2 eggs side of mustard but that's just me...The food, the studio, the shop - everything at Turf is fabulous.

So, we started eating and then I remembered to take the food pic. I had the Mushroom Risotto with a piece of salmon, and my Mom had the salmon burger. The food was delicious, and for those who are seafood lovers, the salmon was moist and flavourful. It was reported that the coffee was so-so. I also tried the Almond Butter Protein Balls, and I must admit they were a little bland. Inside the Cafe was very loud and noisy, but if you like eating outside, it was fresh, sunny, and a lot more quiet. I will definitely be back!

The best local with delicious food and a friendly neighbourhood community feel! Also the most unique and fun workout space attached to the cafe (plus a little boutique full of local brands)

Very cool place. Mostly vegan food with some choice animal proteins. The menu features the usual plant-based brunch fare. The food is packed with flavour. The staff is really friendly and works hard to create a welcoming environment. Prices are a little high (what you'd expect for this kind of place) but not okay for every now and then. I just checked out the cafe but they have an attached fitness studio and activewear/merch shop.
