Folk and Merchant Cafe
Introducing Folk & Merchant, Your Neighborhood Oasis
At Folk & Merchant, we believe in the power of community and the warmth of shared moments. Stepping into Folk & Merchant feels like coming home. The cafe is a testament to the cherished memories of the past and the promise of delightful moments yet to come. Predominantly designed for outdoor seating, the cafe exudes a cozy charm, with a dedicated coffee window catering to those on the go. But that’s not all – they’ve expanded the space, adding inviting indoor seating and a retail area where you can discover an array of treasures sourced locally and globally.
What sets Folk & Merchant apart is our unwavering commitment to supporting local businesses. They source our sourdough from the talented bakers at Doubleview’s very own Bread Bros, and their delectable range of relishes and jams comes from the artisans at Oohlala Preserves. Quench your thirst with kombucha from Scarborough’s Hippie Kombucha, and savour the rich flavours of the custom coffee blend expertly crafted by Wangara-based Kaltiva Coffee Roasters.
The menu, inspired by simplicity and crafted with care, features a delightful selection of toasts, open sandwiches, croissants, and freshly baked goods. But Folk & Merchant is more than just a cafe – it’s a haven for community and family. Explore the shelves adorned with clothes from Laura’s children’s label, Lucie June, and discover a curated collection of handmade ceramics, keep-cups, and wooden art from the talented Sarai Marie. Take a seat on our meticulously crafted wooden benches and stools, lovingly handmade in Bali, and let the world outside fade away.
Folk & Merchant isn’t just a cafe; it’s a celebration of local flavors, artistry, and the joy of connecting with one another. Join in this heartwarming space, where every cup of coffee tells a story and every smile is a welcome invitation.
