Hosted my wedding here and had an amazing experience with Carlos and the team. We had so many compliments on the evening and venue. Carlos and the propeller team were extremely helpful leading up to the event and the day of, helping everything run so smoothly. Their desire to make our day special really showed and we are so happy that we chose to do our wedding at this venue!

Propellor Coffee proved to be the perfect venue for our recent Bar Mitzvah. The guests loved it, the staff were all terrific and helpful, and the venue was perfect. By all accounts, the evening was a huge success and everyone had a great time. Thank you!

We truly can’t say enough great things about our experience with Propeller for our wedding. Initially planning for a 2020 wedding, needless to say we encountered quite a few speed bumps along the way. Propeller was so accommodating throughout the whole planning process, adjusting our wedding date with ease when we decided to push to 2021, then to 2022.
The space just felt so perfect for our wedding - a warm, unique, and relaxing venue to finally celebrate with friends and family. It feels so open, yet so intimate. We loved that the space was customizable too and the team made sure the transitions between ceremony, dinner, and dancing went off seamlessly. The large outdoor patio was a huge plus, since we had Food Dudes’ food truck for our meal. On-site parking was super convenient for our out-of-town guests and being steps from TTC was a bonus for our city guests, too.
Carlos, Sarah, Jyll, and the entire Propeller team were such a dream to work with - making sure every question was answered and they were there for us through every step, being professional and reliable throughout. Their attention to detail is next level! We still get compliments from our guests on our venue selection and how “us” it felt. If you’re looking for a special and one-of-a-kind venue for your wedding, Propeller is it!

We had our work holiday party at Propeller Coffee in Dec 2022. The space itself is lovely and large, but still intimate. We had a DJ, passed apps and food stations, which was a perfect format for the space. We also had large communal tables for people to sit at and eat / chat. The staff was fantastic- very helpful, professional and attentive, and they really assisted to make the evening run smoothly. We also had a barrista for a couple of hours, which was great- their coffee is amazing and choices of non-dairy milks was the best I have ever seen. Our guests raved about the space, coffee and service in general. I would not hesitate to recommend this venue.

We had our wedding at Propeller in October and were so happy with our choice. It was the perfect place for the laid back wedding we had imagined. Everything felt simple from the start - we worked with Sarah and then Carlos. Both were wonderful in providing us the guidance we needed to make everything happen. We had 95 guests for the ceremony, seated dinner, and party.
These are the things we loved about the space/ flow of the event:
- It is an accessible location with everything on one level which was important for many of our guests
- Parking on site made things very easy for those who wanted to drive. The central location made it an easy place for everyone to get to
- They were able to seamlessly transition the space between each part of the evening
- The space is bright and lovely - perfect without any additional decor
- There is access to a fairly large outdoor patio space - and the garage doors can be opened in warmer weather
- The openness of the venue really made a difference in our evening, as it felt like all guests were able to mingle well. On the other hand, having the room to the side was amazing during the later evening - those not interested in dancing were still close by but had a space to sit and chat - rather than being stranded at tables surrounding a dance flood as with other venues.
- We were able to provide our own alcohol
- Carlos and Jyll were amazing on the night of. Everything went off without a hitch.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone at Propeller. Thank you for making this day better than we could have imagined!

Tucked away in one of Toronto's up and coming neighborhoods, Propeller is one of the most unique spaces in the city, beautifully modern and rustic, highlighted by tons of natural light streaming from the floor to ceiling roll-up garage doors. It's an incredible blank canvas for any event big or small and the owners of this space are a joy to work with - what more could anyone ask for?

It all starts with exceptional coffee. Propeller Coffee Co. is first and foremost, an exceptional producer of coffee for retail and wholesale customers. I can highly recommend their coffee, I drink it every day. It makes my day!
The care and attention that the team at Propeller Coffee Co puts into their coffee is reflected by what they have done in creating an exceptional event space.
The Event Space is bright, fashionable, easily accessible and very well appointed. From the beautiful tables to the amazing light in the cupping room (you have to see it to believe it) all the details are thought out. In the summer months the three garage doors open to provide an easy transition between indoor and outdoor space. If your event is larger the parking lot will accommodate a 60' tent!
The back of house is as well set up as the front of house. It allows for easy deliveries and the room allows for very complex service to be handled easily. There is both a walk in cooler and freezer on site that can be used by your caterer.
Kristi and the team at Propeller are friendly, knowledgeable and caring.
The location while it seems a little out of the way is a short walk from the Lansdowne Subway Stop. There is on-site parking and a Green P parking within walking distance.
The catering list includes a great group of caterers who can work with your tastes to come up with a menu that will amaze your guests.
