The Freshbooks head office is at 2770 Dufferin Street – a little unassuming building about 10 minutes walk from the Glencairn TTC station. I wasn’t expecting much when I first saw the property but once you get inside they have some really cool space. A few breakout meeting rooms, polished concrete floors, some great movie posters, big windows with lots of natural light and even a foozeball table! What more could you ask for as a tech company? There weren’t many restaurants next door but a short walk either North or South and you can find some great lunch spots.

Rayanne Langdon (Queen of Hearts – @rlangdon) and Grace Antonio greeted me promptly upon arrival. Freshbooks is still at a size where every employee feels part of the team and the energy in the office felt awesome. The staff were given an opportunity to provide input on the design of the offices and I think they did a great job setting it up. A few months ago Freshbooks posted some advice on their blog about how to save a few bucks designing your office space. The post can be found here.

There isn’t much to say about plus / minus of the ownership of the building as Freshbooks keeps to themselves. The building is far enough away from the financial core and the Spadina node that they don’t get a lot of drop in traffic without appointments, which can be a good or bad thing.
