Brain Station & Quantum Coffee

The once iconic downtown hostel ‘Global Village Backpackers’ located at 460 King St West, right in the heart of Toronto, has received what we like to call an extreme makeover!  It has moved from young travellers, late night partiers, to a beautiful trendy coffee shop, an instagramers dream, and a regular learning institution. Equipped with a fresh open common area that is available to Quantum Coffee goers for meetings or study sessions can also be rented out for private events.

This venue is new and modern with the restored exposed brick walls, large windows, futuristic lighting and beautiful hardwood floors. This space can be transformed to suite your event needs!
