I had to wait for cars to pass to get out of my car. There is just not much room on this street. The cafe is cute, I got a latte and some treats. The Whoppie pie cookie was so good as was my coffee. They said that when the weather is better there is seating outside. There was not seating inside. They did have some savories as well, which I would love to go back and try.

The primary coffee accompaniment are pastries but there is a yummy breakfast sandwich and other such items there too, if you can rip your eyes away from the goodies to look! It's charming. With the pandemic they have improved their outside, so several great spots to perch and eat and talk. There can be a bit of a lineup so consider trying to find their quieter times if they work for you. Right by the Rideau River so very accessible for bikes and people out for walks.

The store was pretty clean and I think they are one of the few that carry nitro cold brew which is super cool

The staff here in the coffee shop is friendly and helpful, and the space seems brighter now. I wished there had been more seating, but we were comfortable enough, and the staff accommodated our request to put tables together for our group of 9 (knitters). Each of us ordered something to eat or drink, and we spent quite a bit of time there doing our handicrafts and catching up. This setup worked well for us, and one barista asked us as we were leaving if we'd be back next week! All in all, s good visit.

The cutest rustic elegant cafe in Orleans. Beyond Cafe has both a lovely atmosphere and their…read moredrinks are phenomenal too! I visited recently with my friend and we both ordered a specialty iced drink. I ordered the Iced Shake Toffee Nut with Cold Foam. This drink has a strong coffee flavour and you can truly taste the toffee nut. I like that it's super refreshing and it's perfect for the summer days. My friend ordered the Ice Biscoff Latte with Whipped Cream. If you are a biscoff fan, this is a must-order. They use biscoff to blend into the latte and they even place a full biscoff cookie on top of the whipped cream. It balances the sweetness of the drink and the coffee flavour at the same time. We also ordered the Smoked Salmon Toast which has a garlicky cream cheese, cucumber, smoked salmon, fresh dill, avocado, capers, radish and a slice of lime. This is a hefty gourmet toast and I love how fresh all the ingredients are. Make sure to squeeze the slice of lime before having it, and it really adds some sourness to the whole dish. I am a huge fan of capers, so this added some tanginess! All the employees are really kind-hearted and will come around often to check in on their customers. They gave good suggestions on both food and drinks. I really like the whole atmosphere of this restaurant. A must-visit if you haven't already!

I had heard nothing but good things, so I stopped in for breakfast last week. I ordered a breakfast burrito. I still think $4 is a little steep for a breakfast sandwich, but damn, was it ever good? They don't rush it either. They keep it in the warmer for a couple minutes, so it was warm throughout, even after carrying it back in the cold. My boss treated us the day after so I tried out their nuts and honey latte, which was also really nice. Gotta try their lunch sandwiches next. Good service too.

I was so excited when I heard that there was a place in my area that had K-dogs (Korean Corn Dogs)…read more Unfortunately, my experience was less than stellar. The wait was over 30 minutes for a K-dog and 20 minutes into the wait they told us they ran out of hotdogs so we had to get an all cheese corn dog or veggie corn dog. Ugh! So the place is ultra hipster, lol. It has an industrial vibe to it. Prices are on the high side. It was $11.99 for a K-dog. My husband also got a Decaf Americano ($3.50). So we ordered a Half n Half "The Works" K-dog, which is a half mozzarella cheese, half hotdog corn dog topped with Okonomi sauce, Kewpie mayo and bonito flakes. I asked them to go light on the Kewpie and they obliged. Service was friendly. Our visit was during the Covid-19 Pandemic and the staff were regularly disinfecting high traffic areas like the door handles, which I appreciated. They also limit the number of people inside, so since our order was to go, they asked us to wait outside, and they would bring the order out. Fine by us. It was technically Spring, but still chilly out. They brought out my husband's Decaf Americano quickly, which he appreciated as it kept him warm. He offered me some, but he drinks his coffee black (which for inscrutable reasons I find an attractive quality in a man, but it's not how I like my own coffee, lol). However, we waited 20 minutes before the staff member who took our order came out and advised us that they ran out of hotdogs and we could either have all cheese or half cheese and half veggie dog. We opted for all cheese. It took another 10 minutes for us to get our food. The cheese was very plentiful and had extraordinary pull, lol, but it was almost too much cheese (can't believe I'm actually typing those words in that order, haha). I would have definitely enjoyed it more if it was a half hotdog and half cheese corn dog. The toppings were good. The Okonomi sauce was slightly sweet and the Kewpie mayo was creamy and I loved the marine taste of the bonito flakes. Those who dislike fish might want to stay away though. The bonito flakes had a definite fish smell and taste to them. The breading was crispy and I'm glad I got to try the K-dog, but I personally found it overpriced for what it was. The inside is cool looking and it would actually be a great place for a date once this Pandemic is over. Note, the address is on Parkdale but the physical location is at the corner of Spencer and Hamilton. We had a hard time finding it until my husband spotted the sign with an arrow pointing towards the cafe as we crossed Parkdale and Spencer for the second time looking for it. Street parking only.

There is no parking for it but you can find street parking in and around the area. When we came by there was a bit of snow on the ground but that didn't stop us...except I was nervous I was parked to close to the fire hydrant so double backed to move my car. The owner and his wife seem like a lovely couple. He's pretty passionate about his coffee and will give everybody a run down of the type of coffee you will order. Listen to it, he loves it, you should love it! On top of the coffee, there is a bit of pastries and sandwiches to choose from. I didn't partake in any food but got a latte. They let you choose the damn mug you get your drink in, how awesome is that? They have a lot of options and obviously I chose the one with a lot of random heart colours on it. In no time they got me my coffee and put some nice coffee art into it. The area isn't to large but not to small either. They do explain it's a shared space for when it gets busy so they hope you don't take up 5 chairs by 2 people. It's decorated either like a blast from old Europe or your grandparents place if they were a bit fancier. We spent some time here and had multiple drinks. Very nice place to hang out and disconnect from everything.
