Roasted tomato soup declared "really good" and the ginger carrot, very flavourful. Dark, dark moka lived up to its billing. Chocolatey, not sweet just chocolate and coffee combined perfectly. Did I mention we loved the mugs? Locally made I am guessing. Counter service pleasant and helpful. The place itself - clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the instrumental music playing. Perfect volume for a relaxing lunch. AND although I don't make a habit of commenting on washroom facilities, it was spotless and handicapped friendly.

The service was great, both girls were quite friendly and attentive. They heated up the sandwich for me on a panini press and it was tasty, it also came with tortilla chips on the side. The coffee they use is organic and fair trade and the brand is called, Spirit Bear. I believe that it is a local coffee roaster. The coffee was good but definitely nothing to write home about. Would I go back? Sure, if I happened to be in the area again killing time. At a friends house later on they brewed me a cup of coffee using beans from Drumroaster Coffee (another local coffee shop/roaster) and that was some of the best coffee I've ever had in my life. So maybe if you're in the area hit up Drumroaster instead.
