Anyone else out there miss meeting friends at a coffee shop or working from somewhere other than their couch? To satisfy that craving, here is the Waterloo Region Coffee Shops, Cafes, and Bakeries Guide. (If you’re along for the adventure on Instagram, you’ll already know I’ve been stocking up on the first item on this list!)

It is important to note that this is a living document and therefore can change. If there’s a local independent business I’ve missed, please leave a comment below or send me an email.
