One King West Hotel & Residence has a bright and bustling new addition. Located in the lobby level of One King West Hotel & Residence, the just-opened Daily Ritual Café offers up a variety of breakfast, lunch, sweet and savoury snack options made fresh for hotel guests, residents, and Financial District’s daily pavement pounders.
The light-filled space features dramatically high ceilings and is packed with all of the locally-sourced goodness your heart could desire – from fresh cheeses and meats for an impromptu in-room charcuterie board to comforting sandwiches and soups.

Daily Ritual
The café offers a seasonal food menu prepared fresh in-house featuring breakfast items, sandwiches, salads, pastries and other suites and fresh juices; meats, cheese, and pasta from the beloved Cheese Boutique; a curated selection of Toronto-based PLUCK teas available freshly brewed or for purchase; and locally sourced beverages from Sapsucker, Phat Nutrition, FLOW Hydration, and Tonica Kombucha.
Daily specials can include anything from a hearty chicken parmesan sandwich to seasonal soups. Coffee and perfectly frothed espresso-based drinks made from Rufino Espresso round out the experience. Or, if they prefer, customers can leave with a bottle of wine or canned cocktail.
Customers will also find a selection of small grocery items that cater to a refined palette (think, the Pusateri’s set). Later this fall, the café will expand its menu to offer catering and culinary gift baskets.
“We aim to provide our customers with only the best service to eat, drink and rendezvous in a casual, relaxed environment. The bright and airy space is designed to offer a bit of light on King St. West and become a part of their daily coffee, breakfast, lunch, or after-work ritual,” says Saurabh Mehta, One King West Hotel & Residence Hotel Manager.
“We are offering a hybrid concept where our customers will not only get to enjoy a great cup of local coffee or tea but will also be able to taste and purchase wines, cheese, charcuterie, antipasto and various gourmet fine foods and gifts from local and international artisans.”
The App
Daily Ritual Café has also developed a custom app available on the App Store and Google Play to make ordering that morning coffee or lunchtime sandwich super convenient. Customers can pre-order items from the full menu for pick up in the café or delivery through DoorDash.
“Daily Ritual Café is a great extension to the culinary program that we have at One King West Hotel & Residence,” says Akshay Shastry, One King West Hotel & Residence Executive Chef. “Each item on our menu is thoughtfully sourced and curated to offer patrons artistically presented fast-casual options without compromising on taste.”
