I am not well versed in Filipino food, but each bite was delicious and familiar. Only feedback is that some of the dishes were a little more salty than my personal preferences. However, nothing that a spoonful of rice can't balance out! Very popular while we were there, and we were glad to have snagged the last table before the main room was completely taken over. I would recommend if you are craving rice or asian noodles.

The…read morerestaurant is small and cozy, but absolutely worth the wait for a table in such a cute and quaint spot. I ordered the tuna sandwich on toasted sourdough, and it was fantastic--fresh, not at all fishy, with the aioli mayo adding just the right touch of flavor. My husband went with the ham and cheese sandwich paired with the soup of the day, a cream of zucchini with Parmesan, which was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Our friends ordered the omelette and the Freida hash--both dishes were delicious, with the omelette cooked perfectly and the hash being especially satisfying. We couldn't resist sharing the French toast, and it did not disappoint--the batter was spot on. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Leonhards for brunch or even takeout. A wonderful spot to enjoy before (or after) a trip.

We sat outside, enjoying the summer air and watching the downtown hum along. The food here leans simple but thoughtful. The Island Hot Cake was fluffy and satisfying, and the Fry Up breakfast (with bacon) hit all the right notes--especially the potatoes. Maybe it's just PEI magic, but even as a side, they stand out. Our lattes and matcha latte were smooth and well-crafted, and the pacing felt unhurried in the best way. Service was friendly without being overbearing, and it's the kind of place where you can linger with your coffee without feeling rushed. If you're in Charlottetown and want a reliably good breakfast with a quality cup of coffee, Receiver is worth the stop--especially if you can grab a patio seat.

Once inside, you'll find a modern and clean space filled with baked goodies, fresh bread and fabulous coffee. We fought the urge to buy the maple cream whoopie pies. I also was eyeing the tofu lemongrass bowl on the "meal menu". Their breads also looked delicious- I was eyeing the molasses oat bread. We ended up buying a maple cappuccino and a maple latte -and they were sooo good. They also offer a dog friendly patio out front. If you find yourself here for a cruise, this is a five minute walk (or less) from the port. Don't miss out!

We had a fabulous stay. Do not let the brand of hotel keep you from coming here. Yes it's not…read morevery fancy. But I have been in much nicer "branded" hotels and this was much better than most of the others. This was by far the NICEST Quality Inn I have ever been to. The staff was more than accommodating. They have an option to either clean your entire room or just ask for random things daily - like we will put out the trash today and you give us new trash bags, or more tissues, etc. We opted for the latter and didn't want our room entirely cleaned and it worked out so well. The room was clean on arrival and quiet. The biggest thing - they have an AWESOME breakfast. You get coupons to present. It's not the routine hotel breakfast. You sit at their restaurant and choose one of 5 options. There is eggs and sausage/bacon, waffles and sausage, oatmeal/fruit and extras, etc. While the meals don't change daily the quality is very tasty and its literally cooked to your liking. Plus they accommodate you on what you want different for each day. We did leave a tip for our waitress each morning- it is technically a restaurant. The location is great - it's right near a bunch of restaurants and we were able to walk to other restaurants closer to the downtown area without driving. You park for free! And a caveat - our airline had lost our luggage and the hotel was great with keeping it and then sending it to us after we arrived. They have coffee in the lounge (drank it all the time) and if you really want they have a reciprocating friendship with one of the nearby establishments to swim in a pool (we did not do this).

The bed was comfy I was tempted to rearrange the room a bit. Once I raised the desk chair to a normal height, it was too high to go under the desk ... so it was always in the way. At night, I would move it close to the window so I wouldn't trip over it going to the washroom in the dark. The desk/chair should be swapped with the fridge/microwave oven since they are thinner. Plus it would be nice to have the desk/chair near the bright window. It was nice to be able to open the windows and get fresh air. Included with the room was parking, WIFI and a continental breakfast. The room had a mini fridge, hairdryer, coffee machine and microwave oven. It is one street over from Queen Street (a main street) and within walking distance to lots of restaurants and pubs, shopping, the waterfront, etc. There is a restaurant in the hotel but I didn't check it out.

The last time I was there, my jaw actually dropped at the size of the two over easy eggs on my plate! I'm sure they come from a local supplier - these wouldn't fit into the normal grocery store egg categories. Hashbrowns are also phenomenal. And, I don't know another local diner in the area that gives you a breakfast plate with homemade, thick cut toast, dripping in butter along with breakfast meat that will go above and beyond any other diner's attempt to satisfy. Trust me, this plate of awesomeness is not for the faint of heart, but it's bar none the best breakfast in all of Pictou County. Opt for the sausages - you won't be disappointed. And then make sure who ever is with you gets the bacon. Cause you'll obviously want to try a strip of that, too. Service is laid back. Coffee is fine - it's diner quality, and that's fine by me. The floors creak and the locals pretty much have assigned seating. Tables are small and the ceilings are low, but it's all part of the atmosphere, folks! Don't forget to pick up a few baked goods from the general store. Pies, rolls, breads and other yummy items are always fresh baked and are completely drool-worthy. Enjoy!
