I loved how they were still warm, crispy and chewy in the inside. I had the pistachio sauce with salty peanuts and strawberry sauce with oreo crumbles. These pasteries are best to enjoy while they are fresh, the taste changes after a day and they aren't as tasty. I found the pistachio cream to be more white chocolate tasting than pistachio flavored. One thing I loved though was that it isn't as sweet as it looks which is pretty dangerous as I couldn't stop eating them!

Best of all, the people were energetic and friendly, even knowledgeable on specific items and recommendations. I look forward to going back!

We were the only people ordering when we arrived, my initial reaction was that the place looked like a cute juice bar/restaurant but I was a bit disappointed as soon as we looked for a table and they all seemed to need a wipe. My friend ordered the Keto shake and I got the Watermelon and Strawberry juice with mango chunks. My drink was cold and refreshing. The drinks looked great and tasted good but were also quite expensive, the two regular sized drinks came to $21. I didn't notice any high chairs and I wasn't offered one for my baby, which I don't really expect. Half way through our drinks I needed to change my baby but the business doesn't have any change tables. I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't change my baby in the washroom, maybe in the future they will open Juice Moms and be fully equipped for all clientele.

I never thought I'd be touring the 'Hood for microbreweries, especially during a pandemic - and…read moreyet, here I am, doing exactly that! You gotta make your fun where you find it, and bring it on home! So, we recently stopped in at the Carp Fair Grounds for the Carp Farmers' Market (a whole new experience during the pandemic! But this is for another review :-) ) On the way to the Fairgrounds, we passed by the new Ridge Rock Brewing Co., and we were very impressed with the big patio out the back of the building. Since we do enjoy craft beer, we decided to stop by on the way home from the farmer's market on this day. First of all, the brewery is in an updated red brick building on the corner of Carp Rd. and Donald B. Munro Dr. There is a seating area or two to your left as you enter, and a reception / cashier on the right, where they also sell souvenirs (cool!) It's nice and bright in here, and I can't wait until we can sit inside again, and share good times at one of these tables. On the day we were here, we were 2nd in line, but nobody was at the cash. We waited for not more than 5 minutes for the server to get back. She was friendly, informative, and efficient, and didn't take long to get to us. We picked up an 8-pack of a variety of beers: 2 Blonde, 2 Amber, and 2 Late Harvest, as well as 1 each of Lett Kveik and Spro Kveik - specialties of this brewery. I couldn't wait - we shared a can of the Amber over lunch. It was very tasty! I look forward to going back, hopefully to dine-in, at some point over the summer.

They have some seating available, including floor cushions. There is a sign that states limit to one hour when busy which I can understand. We arrived shortly before the post Iftar rush. It got very busy very quickly. Staff seemed to be overwhelmed as they get through all customers. We waited to have our order taken but sat down when they were busy. Eventually we placed our order and waited. Since we only got an adani chai and kunafa, we got our items quickly. The Adana chai was cooked well, it was creamy and flavourful. We got sugar sticks $.75 the concept it great, however, the stick breaks very quickly leaving your drink incredibly sweet so make sure to not leave it in there if you want a somewhat sweet tea. The kunafa was $12 for a piece. This was dissatisfying, it appeared to be re-heated because that was definitely not a fresh kunafa. It was dry and around the edges. We only had a few bites and left it. Overall, They have a large selection of drinks to choose from, and sandwiches. It appears to be incredibly busy during Ramadan but I will definitely come back to have the tea again.

I've been wanting to try this Yemeni cafe for some time now, but it's not in an area that I…read morefrequent. However, I finally got around to it. Overall the food was good. I got takeout and got the Liver Platter $14.15, which was liver with onions, bell peppers and chili peppers. It came with Tanoor bread, which is a flat bread. The liver was piping hot and very flavourful, but some pieces were a bit tough with chewy pieces I couldn't eat. I was disappointed that the bread was not warm, just room temperature, but it was soft and chewy and still ok. The Liver Platter is their most popular dish. The inside of the cafe is nice. There are some regular tables, some high tables and some low tables where you sit on cushions. Those tables are pretty but they were occupied, so I couldn't take a picture for y'all. There's a live bird in a cage in the cafe, a musical instrument on the wall and other cool decorations. My visit was during the Covid-19 Pandemic and mask mandates were still in effect. However, I noticed that one of the people working there (I think he's the owner, bald guy) was interacting with customers at a distance of less than 6 feet (not behind plexiglass) while not wearing a mask. The young guy sweeping the floors was wearing a mask (and he wore it the entire time I was there), but the bald guy wasn't when I entered the cafe. As I was waiting for my food, more people came in and at that point he put on a mask, but it was so loose, I could see nose. This is what I observed. The cafe seems cozy and I like the decor. I may consider returning once the Pandemic is over. The cafe is in a little plaza (same plaza as Pizza Hut) and there's free parking in the shared parking lot.

We have not had the chance to sit and relax inside to enjoy our purchases... yet! One day, we will! However, we have been able to enjoy the food on the patio out front (once), when the weather was warmer. The service is good and the treats are really tempting! The coffee is also good, a little stronger than I am used to, maybe a tad on the bitter side? But still good. We have enjoyed Honey three times now, in our effort to Support Local, and we look forward to continuing to support them. Bravo for facing the challenge of opening up your new shop during the pandemic, and in spite of it! We are really glad you are here!
