This place is great for studying or doing some work. It isn’t a large coffee shop, but there is adequate seating of different varieties. It usually isn’t too busy, and even when it gets busier there is faint classic music playing, which gives a nice even ambiance. It is somewhat dark inside, but not unpleasantly so, actually quite intimate if you want to have a conversation with someone over coffee. The coffee is quite good, go in for the espresso based drinks, it’s called an espresso bar for a reason. The staff is always pleasant and friendly. Hours could be extended to compete with some other coffee shops which stay open later. Baked good selection could also be a little bit better. Hope this place makes it.

Oscar’s is one of the nicest cafés in the Beaches. With sweets that aren’t numbingly sweet, coffee that’s been meticulously brewed and a quaint atmosphere, it has many fine qualities that set a high standard for other Beaches businesses. The prices are similar to other places in the Beaches, but the top notch service and well-thought out interior makes it a wonderful place to sit down for a cup of any beverage you like. The free wifi and patio are also great bonuses. As other users have said, the pastry collection is a tad bit small; however, for a shop of its size it has enough options to satisfy almost any pastry fan. I cannot wait to see how it evolves and grows, and I hope to continue my patronage there for a great many years. Cheers!

Delicious lattes, great atmosphere and wonderful service. Highly recommend, especially when the patio is open during the summer.

Yes the coffee was very rich and flavorful but their muffins were bland, white and not too healthy. If these guys want to get some of the Remarkable Bean’s customers, then it is high time that they get some high quality pastries and dense, packed with fruit and nuts muffins!

First of all, great coffee! Very comfortable atmosphere and plenty of seating available. This place also has a nice patio which is a plus during the warmer months. Highly recommended coffee place in the Beaches neighbourhood. Grab a cup and take a walk along the beach!

This family understands what it means to take pride in their business! Amazing coffee!!! Great atmosphere! And amazing people! I think that everyone should check them out! And what better way to start your morning then ordering a coffee made to perfection and listening to the soothing sounds of classical music! BESTCOFFEE house in the beach!

Great neighbourhood coffee house! I discovered this lovely spot recently & it’s become one of my faves. The coffee is excellent and the selection of pastries is also excellent. A short walk from the Beaches boardwalk, Oscar also features free wifi!

Oscar Coffee & Espresso Bar has a nice set up. Love those sofa like booth at the back. Chilling at the back just feel like lounging at a friend’s house. On a Sunny Spring Sunday afternoon, Oscar was busy but the line moved fast. My Cappuccino has really nice milk froth, smooth and silky. I should have ordered a double shot of espresso as it is just too mellow for my liking. I would definitely be back to Oscar when I am in the neighbourhood.

I love what the owners did with this place. It has a modern cozy atmosphere. Yummy desserts and hot chocolate. Free wi-fi, good music and staff is super friendly. I haven’t tried the sandwiches yet but they look fresh and good. The place looks spotless and clean which for me is an excellent sign. I’m looking forward to trying the sandwiches. A welcome addition to the neighborhood.

I think I’ve been to Oscar enough times now that will allow me to write a review. The place opened a little over a month now in place of the previous business: «Best Coffee House». The décor has changed completely and it looks SO much better. I wouldn’t say the place is cozy but definitely very comfortable and modern looking. There are some great stools by the window and some nice tables and chairs. Everything was well thought of and I’d say that it’s probably the nicest looking coffee place in the Beach neighbourhood. The coffees I’ve tried and the hot chocolate were spot on. The owner is meticulous and will ensure that you get a perfect cup of espresso each and every time. I tried some of the pastries and they were also very good. I’ve posted some photos if you’re interested. :) Price is on par with most coffee places but a welcome addition is the acceptance of debit and credit card, something that was missing from the previous owner and business. There’s also free wi-fi bringing the place to the 21st century. As mentioned, everything has changed, has been modernized and evolved for the better since the place opened up. The staff is friendly and helpful. I can’t wait to see the place continue to grow and hopefully evolve into a five star coffee shop. The Beach neighbours deserves one! What is missing for that is simply a bigger variety of sweets and perhaps the addition of various pastries and sandwiches. I’m not sure that’s the direction the business is going for but it would definitely make the place even more attractive to new customers. With spring and warmer temperatures the patio should be open, at which point I’ll provide an updated review.

I just popped into Oscar’s coffee yesterday with my friend because this place looked nice and newly renovated. Ordered green tea latte and my friend had americano and I have to say it was one of the best green tea latte I ever had. Staffs were friendly and atmosphere was nice and most of all they had free wifi!!! They said they are still under renovation and will be getting more pastries. We will definitely go back to this place to try other menus they’ve got.
