The place is nice, bright, and classy looking. There was a showcase with some tasty looking cakes and other treats on display. Everything looked deliciously tempting, too tempting to resist! We got the last seven Cream Rolls that they had, thanks to my new friend, Saumya. It was a long thin pastry roll, filled with cream, light and absolutely delicious! I will definitely have to come back to try more of their treats! Thanks again Saumya!

Came here a few days ago for some last night dessert with a friend …read more The look of the place is nicely decorated and bright. Very cute cafe in Pickering. Very clean and spacious with a modern menu (QR code to see the menu). We shared a waffle and I had a hibiscus lemonade. The waffle, not like regular waffles. It was more of a cake batter waffle. This was very good. We opted for the mango ice cream one and the waffle is covered with some white chocolate curls for crunch and a drizzled sauce. There was some cut up fruit. The waffle didn't feel heavy and it was very easy to share. Hibiscus lemonade was refreshing but a bit to sweet for my taste. I'm sure when I come back I can ask them to make it less sweet. There are tons of options for drinks, hot and cold. Quite the selections of teas, and if I was a bit hungrier would have probably gotten a milkshake (roughly $10) Prices are fair , waffles are about $20 and are big enough to share. The person taking our order was great with lots of options and was very knowledgeable and friendly. She was attentive and checked on us regularly. Would definately go back to try some of the other items on the menu that looked delicious as well as the desserts and cakes that are in the window at the front on display at the counter.

I am trying to cut back on sweets but for what they serve here in willing to break that rule. This place is not that big but the side is very cozy. We were seated in the back area and it was a very bright and comfortable spot. It seems like it would be nice to just order a crepe and a beverage and just relax here. For food I ordered the biscoff crepe while my partner ordered the pistachio. The biscoff crepe tasted exactly as you would imagine what a biscoff crepe would taste like. It was a bit on the sweet side but not overly so and I really enjoyed it. All in all, a good place to grab a drink and some dessert and just hang out. If you want to order a crepe cake you need to do it ahead of time in case you were wondering. Definitely worth checking out.

However they move pretty fast, so shouldn't be too big of an issue. Waffle was soooo good - however I think because we got two scoops of ice cream on top, it made the waffle lose it's crispiness , and parts of it became a little mushy. The matcha ice cream was so good, not just pure sugar, you could still get that distinct matcha flavour. However had a latte and that unfortunately was not good - could not taste the espresso what so ever, think they need to consider a stronger blend? - as it felt like I was having a warm cup of milk. Overall would come back to explore the sweets, hopefully try a croffle. But will skip on the coffee here.

And if you're not, do yourself a favor and try this out. We decided to share the Regular Fruitrio so we can try all 3 layers along with my favorite part, the ashta! It was freshly made and super delicious. It's definitely a more guilt-free dessert (although I'm sure it's loaded with sugar) but you will leave feeling satisfied. Service was pretty slow despite not being busy at all but other than that, this is a great place to curb your sweet tooth!

I LOVE their Ginger Latte, and other specialty drinks. Also enjoy their egg salad sandwich -- lots of filling and choice of white or whole wheat bread.
