OZ
Sam James Coffee Bar by day……and Thai BBQ restaurant by night.
This location is a coffee shop during the daytime, and transitions into the discreet entrance to one of Toronto’s most authentic Thai restaurants, Favorites Thai BBQ, for nightly dinner service at 6pm.
There are many cafes and hot spots to visit along the Ossington strip, but there's only 1 place to find Sam James Coffee.
Come see us during the day for your coffee fix, and pop by later to sneak behind the café for a refreshing glass of wine and a bite.
The Oz shop seats many on a large U shaped bench around the perimeter of the room, and showcases the industrial steel craftsmanship, consistent with all SJCB stores.
This location features a large mesh cage floating from the ceiling, reflecting the bar below, like a set of teeth.
Locally made pastry by Blackbird Baking Co. available daily, as well as a complete menu of hot & cold drinks made with our own coffee, roasted in Toronto.

HARBORD SHOP
The first SJCB shop, opened 2009.
This cozy space changed from a vacant book shop on a quiet strip of town, to a community hub over night. It's a small place with big charm, just a few seats, and a regular cast of characters from the neighbourhood.
Serving our own locally roasted SJCB coffee, our menu is a simple list of hot & cold espresso drinks, filter coffee, and retail beans by the bag, with pastries by Toronto’s esteemed bakery Blackbird Baking Co.
Neighbours, students, cyclists, and coffee lovers alike make this their destination.
This location is home base, and the DNA of Sam James Coffee Bar.
