Interior Of La Merceria

Quality over quantity is Sandra Rojas-Chinni's philosophy.

Toronto's La Merceria is a café and decor shop dotted with glasses, dishes and carefully curated, reclaimed wood furniture. "My baker husband always had the idea of opening a café, and I would source the dishes and products," explains Sandra. "We kept coming across venues that were straddling both coffee and tableware. This store's concept is all about lifestyle — the quality of the coffee is as important as the quality of the cup," she says.
