The Peachy

The Peachy is a Korean dessert cafe at the corner of Yonge and Finch.

Tucked away on the bottom floor of Xerox Tower, just across the street from Finch Station, The Peachy is a one-stop shop for cakes, coffee and croissants, all with an East Asian twist.

The cafe is a clean, white space dotted with round tables and colourful chairs.

The staff also prides themselves on their ability to bring traditional Korean flavours to a wider audience, through dishes like bingsu and drinks like hanrabong juice.
