    Delicious soup
    Josephine T.

    Came here after shambala, great service and food was surprisingly delicious. Soup was on point and the panini was also really good. It may not look that great outside, but the food was very satisfying. The mango smoothie was made with 100% real fruit which was really nice. Wasn't too busy when we first came, but then it got pretty crowded a few minutes later.

    Loved that this cafe opens up early, there were regulars waiting and a fair few tourists like us! The food was good and well prices, the chai latte was very good and the Latte my hubby had smelled and tasted divine! All in all, quick morning stop helped our day start perfectly! Thanks Ladies!!

    No trip out towards the Kootenays is complete without a stop at the dragonfly cafe in Salmo. I would plan a trip so it fits in as the lunch stop. Lots of great paninis, my favorite is the Californian. Guac, Mozza, chicken- it's crunchy on the outside, gooey on the inside goodness! It's an internet cafe with great coffee too so not a bad spot to stop and check reservations (or yelp reviews) online.

We went at a less-busy time (late brunch) which I would recommend. It's a small restaurant with minimal staff. The only drawback is the have a one-stall bathroom located inside the building but outside the restaurant that was pretty dirty and inaccessible.

    It could have been a great weekend at this beautiful town of Nelson. It was our first time to…read morevisit. We went to this restaurant to wrap up our weekend with supposedly a good breakfast. But the server who has tattoos seems to be unapologetic and impatient with my child with special needs. I was trying to minimize her episode of stimming. My child was lying on the floor beside our table. I was keeping an eye on her to avoid any accident. She could have been compassionate but started a scene instead of helping to suppressed what could have been a more controllable situation. I was told "if you want to run around, you and your daughter can go out. the hallway is big". My daughter wasn't even running. She was just calmly lying on the floor. We decided to leave quietly without finishing our food, paid full price. We were not raised to act in an unprofessional manner just like what this nasty lady did to us. No parent or child should be embarrased in public by people who lacks compassion. It's not an excuse she doesn't know my child situation. Kids will always be kids, regardless if they are normal or not. She should not be in this kind of business! She doesn't know how to take good care of your guests! The lady who actually welcomed and served us, with beautiful wavy hair was very nice. You should hire more like her instead of that other lady. You have a nice restaurant. Having genuinely kind workers will be more helpful to your business as their attitude reflects your mission and vision.

It has a great theme with the wooden spoons everywhere, cool old tin panels in the ceiling as well as the burlap bags. You order at the counter, pay and get your numbered wooden spoons which you place in a glass milk carton at the table you choose while awaiting your food. There is plenty of brick inside the restaurant which is always something I like. The woman who took or order said that the owner had bought the place behind them and they were blowing out the wall in between the two establishments so the kitchen can service two places. Sounds good right? The problem we had was that the breakfasts we got were not hot, I mean barely warm. My sunny up eggs were barely done, still alot of clear in the whites. My two halves of toast were put together, butter to butter. The second pieces together for my entire meal I was going to put marmalade on after I had finished all but them. The butter had not even melted into the toast, it was still whole butter. Everything tasted quite good, but it has to be hot. We would certainly return, but it fell just short of the mark. Too bad!
