We were traveling through from Nashville, TN and stopped for a quick sandwich to go…read more What an absolutely wonderful staff. The service was quick, kind and they didn't ask for tips every five seconds. The food and coffee were great and I'd absolutely come back to support a small locally owned business. They have a wide range of tea available. We only got an Americano but next time I'd check out the loose leaf tea. They also had some gluten free options for baked goods. Overall, I think it's a very thoughtful business. It was a relaxed environment. The space is large and bright to do work in. I'll be back!!

So this was a short stop and solely for the purpose of checking out the Butter Tarts…read more We went in and have to say that they sure had a lot of other yummy looking squares and cakes. Unfortunately only the plain butter tarts were left. We grabbed a couple to try out. They are not of the real gooey variety fyi -- but still quite nice, the pastry really flaky. Do give this place a try and I think next time, I would try some of their other treats, like date squares or lemon bars.

When this business was The Buttertart Factory, it was amazing. I'm not quite sure what's going on,…read morebut the standards have fallen drastically while the prices have climbed. It's very disappointing. For a while, I lived for their apple fritters. In May of 2024, I discovered that they no longer put apples in their apple fritters -- perhaps as a cost-saving measure. My family purchased half a dozen fritters, which turned out to be nothing but large slabs of dough with a cinnamon glaze. In June, all varieties of fritters (thankfully) appear to have been removed from the menu. The butter tarts, which once had a flaky pastry and an insanely good, buttery filling, have become worse than the generic tarts found in a No Frills supermarket. Clearly, costs are clearly being cut. Worst of all, the location (in Druro) has added an extremely pricey take-out stand. One of my friends paid a whopping 16 dollars for a chicken burger. No fries, no drink: just a piece of lettuce, a tomato, a gob of mayo and (an admittedly large) slice of fried chicken on a bun. I believe that the owners see this as an easy money grab, as they serve those commuting to Bancroft and back during cottage season. You'd think that for 16 dollars a pop for a chicken burger the owners would provide more than an outhouse to customers. You'd also hope that they'd make sure the outhouse was serviced often enough to prevent feces from piling to the rim. Nope. For obvious reasons, I will be ending my patronage of this establishment.

Brought here by an article in the Escapism magazine, so glad I decided to and made it in before…read morethey closed for the day. Super friendly staff. When I arrived the chairs had been stacked, likely for cleaning duties. I picked up a coffee and a tahini maple brownie to go. When I had each of these the following day, recognizing the time lapse may interfer with the quality and therefore my experience, both were delicious. At first I wasn't all too impressed with the brownie. I didnt get any hint of tahini and the sweetness was a lot. I heated up the coffee and was prepared to have it black, an unusual occurrence, yet sipping at it to make room in my mug for my oat milk, it had a very mild flavour. It wasn't acidic, which some coffees with notes of citrus tend to create. It was smooth, made all the more better with a peice of the brownie in my mouth at the same time. Mind blown and magickal. So at first, not impressed with the brownie, yet having it in a new way, wow! Definitely a pairing for the win! Loved the ambiance, they had a cozy lil table and chairs in the window, surrounded by plants that made it look and feel like aspace in your living room. Also a hexagonal shelf with even more plants next to the bar, on way to the washroom. The art on the walls, amaze-balls! Really, quite beautiful. Lovely the owner is supportive of local talent. They have a shop attached, with second hand finds and teasures. I took a peak, yet didnt stay long. Its nifty and a concept that would be a first for me. Coffee shoppe + Thrift shoppe rolled into one. Would love to return the next time I am in Peterborough

My hot flat white was hot. My hot latte was room temp. Guess the barista doesn't know how to use the milk steamer? The coffee was sour, not milk sour but bean sour. I can't believe I'm saying this, but just go to Tim Hortons instead. You would save so much money, and have a much better coffee.

Raw chicken. I was…read morealmost halfway through my chicken sandwich when I noticed it was raw. The middle 2 thirds of the chicken was uncooked. That was last Saturday and today is the first day I don't have dia**hea. I brought it back to the bar. Several waitresses and a manager (or owner?) came to my table and apologized profusely. They said they'd take care of the bill. I assumed they'd cover my guest as well. I was still in shock, so I didn't check my receipt. I just was my credit card receipt, and they only reimbursed my meal - I guess that's right since I didn't eat it all. They did give me 3 cookies and they were delicious. My body turned those to liquid for later evacuation. We are suffering from a serious service problem and a severe lack of resolution. I really need to learn to make a bigger fuss. It's too bad that a more vocal person that me would have gotten more out of this. Terribly embarrassing. PS: I didn't take a photo as I was busy spitting out what was in my mouth in front of my friend.

Once inside you are shown to the parole and given a bit of a history lesson. Once you are seated you are given a binder describing over 70 teas. You get to choose your tea and your teapot. A series of serving occur with homemade mini sandwiches and sweets. The whole tea takes at least 90mins and is very relaxing and fun. Your hostess is lovely and very knowledgeable and she tries to make as authentic an experience as possible. You do need reservations and honestly it's worth the drive for an excellent experience at bottom level prices.
