Red Brick Cafe

Located in the heart of downtown, Red Brick Cafe is a Guelph staple known for its eclectic decor, rotating local art, and spacious interior. The atmosphere is always buzzing but rarely overwhelming, making it ideal for those who thrive on ambient noise. For focused work, aim for the tables near the back or along the walls where power outlets are more accessible. They serve a wide range of coffee beverages, expertly prepared, alongside an impressive selection of teas. Their food menu is extensive, featuring house-made soups, sandwiches, salads, and irresistible baked goods – perfect for sustaining longer work periods. The crowd is a mix of university students, local professionals, and creatives. Noise levels are generally lively during peak hours but conducive to work with headphones. A unique aspect is their devotion to showcasing local artists, which adds character. Look for the large windows offering great natural light.
