Specialty coffee brand % Arabica has announced the soft opening of its fifth Toronto location, this time inside the bustling Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga. While the official grand opening for consumers is slated for June, consumers are expressing interest in the stores architectural plans.

Far from a conventional mall kiosk, the new location is the result of a collaboration with the renowned Austrian architecture studio Precht. The design embraces minimalist aesthetics, with a light-filled, open-concept layout that invites shoppers to linger. Positioned in one of Canada’s highest-traffic retail environments, the space is intended to serve as both a coffee destination and a visual centerpiece within the mall.

Whether it’s a quick caffeine break mid-shopping spree or a casual meet-up over expertly brewed coffee, the Square One outpost blends premium coffee culture with high-design principles, offering a refined experience in an everyday setting.
