Second Cup Café, Canada’s premier specialty coffee retailer, celebrated the official opening of its 179th location in Canada yesterday, at the Kipling GO Transit Bus Terminal in Etobicoke, Ontario—a major transit hub connecting Toronto to Mississauga and other regions of the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area, surrounded by vibrant residential and commercial developments. The opening celebration included over 100 customers ready to receive free hot and cold beverage samples as well as baked good samples, coupons for future purchases over the month ahead, and 15% discounts off all items on the grand opening celebration day.
“The Kipling GO Transit Bus Terminal Second Cup kiosk is a perfect example of how we’re evolving to meet the needs of modern commuters—combining convenience, quality, and a fresh new design to deliver an elevated coffee experience on the go,” says Cendrine Lavigne, Marketing Director of Second Cup. “We’re excited to serve great coffee and be a part of the daily routines of thousands of people passing through Kipling GO Transit Bus Terminal each day.”
This new 500+ square-foot kiosk brings the premium coffee experience to one of the city’s busiest commuter corridors. Located at the most western stop for the TTC subway on the Bloor Line, and as a final stop for the MiWay bus system (Mississauga Transit), the café in the station is nestled amid a bustling community of condominiums, office towers, and QSR restaurants, making it a convenient stop for busy commuters and local residents alike.
The Kipling GO Transit Bus Terminal Second Cup location joins five other Second Cup locations in the Etobicoke area and is part of the brand’s continued commitment to serving high-quality beverages and food.
To mark the occasion, Second Cup hosted a celebratory grand opening event on June 5. All customers received a special discount, and complimentary product coupons were distributed throughout the day.
The new location is owned and operated by seasoned Second Cup franchisees Kartik Behl, Gemma Behl, and Harry Sidhu. Together, they manage a portfolio of nine Second Cup cafés, including locations at the University of Toronto St. George campus, Commerce Court, and Heartland in Mississauga.
