It was mid-day, where a snack was needed to get us to dinner time, and Yelp to the rescue again. A quick search turned up Famous Town Pie Shop, and what an excellent choice this was in more ways than one. It turns out Yelp's hours of operation for this place are wrong, so we showed up just as they were closing. Being the chubby Merkans that we are, I tried the door handle and they were still open (thankfully). We were greeted with favor though as the nice staff welcomed us to try the last pies of the day. I asked for them to surprise me with whatever was available and settled on two savory pies. Uh-mazing! It had been a while since I'd last had a really good savory pie, and good ones are most certainly not available in the Southeastern U.S. of A, so this experience was amplified a bit. The crust was spot-on, the fillings were flavorful, and the portion size definitely is large enough for most North Americans. Once we scarfed down the pies outside, the owner came outside and gave us some outstanding recommendations on NS and excellent conversation. I would visit this place in a heartbeat again if we are ever in the area. This is one of those little gems that we love stumbling upon in our travels.

The prices are unreasonable. I feel it is definitely taking advantage of people. Why a Danish has to cost more than $10 is beyond explanation. The blueberries tasted fermented.

I had the banana nut muffin and is was truly the best banana nut muffin I've ever had! It had a mix of nuts, seeds, a smattering of mini chocolate chips and a drizzle of icing. Add a light shake of sea salt, and you have found my ideal breakfast treat. My husband had the apple cinnamon crumble muffin. We made an audible "mmmm" on his first bite. Our Americano and latte were exactly as we hoped. If you have time to linger, go upstairs and sit on one large leather couches. We met some native Nova Scotians and never felt rushed. And if we were made of money I would have bought one of the beautiful hand-dyed silk scarves on sale one the first floor. Thank goodness we are here in Mahone Bay for a while... we shall return!

Great find where there was slim pickings.

My husband had a breakfast sandwich and I tried their bagel with lox. I loved the huge capers on it (they are always my fav part of a bagel and lox). We kept seeing people come in for their homemade ice cream so we decided we had to share a cone as well. We got a swirl of their homemade vanilla and a berry sorbet (the waiter suggested this combo and he did not disappoint!) Yum!

If you have a special event coming up and you do not order from Amanda and Maddy, you are simply…read moremaking the biggest mistake of your life. Starting with the flavours, the selection is simply amazing and you will never go wrong with their orange flavour or their white chocolate and raspberry filling. With that being said, I also had the chocolate, and let me tell you, people were fighting over it, it made me so sad that I didn't order a bigger cake for my guests. Second, the amount of work and effort those two beautiful ladies put into it. From the start, they are amazing at communicating. Any concerns, they reach out to you as soon as they can. You will get a zoom call in which you discuss colours, shapes, etc. and they are extremely helpful bringing you closer to your dream cake. Lastly, the design, oh my god!!!!! No one believed me when I said I got my cake from a bakery in NS. I did not have a simple design and these girlies made my dreams come true. The shape of my cake I didn't want square nor circle, they made me hexagon come true, and if you know anything about rolling fondant on cake, you'll know, that is an annoying shape to roll fondant on, but they made it seamless. The design of my flowers, the colours, the gold detailing I wanted. Everything I wanted, they made come true. You are a fool if you do not choose them.
