Stopped by The Grind for a quick visit and can definitely see why it's such a local hot spot --…read morethere was steady foot traffic the whole time we were there! Despite being busy, the wait for food wasn't bad at all, and the café had plenty of staff who were all very friendly and welcoming. We ordered their famous carrot cake, a hot chocolate, coffee, and two everything bagels with cream cheese, which came to $29.80 -- pretty reasonable for a café stop. The food itself was good and satisfying, even if not something I'd necessarily write home about. I'd be really interested in coming back to try their sandwiches next time when we have more time to stay. The atmosphere is cozy and a little cluttered in a charming way, with lots of things to look at that give the space personality. Overall, a nice spot for a casual coffee break or quick bite while in Hinton!

The egg was really dry. Kind of like it was frozen and then microwaved. My husband got a bagel with cream cheese for $5.75. It was mediocre at best. Would have rather gone to Tim Hortons. The pumpkin muffin was good but overall not happy with the misleading advertising and overpriced low quality food.

They were okay but just two pieces of bread with chicken salad inside. It was not grilled. This is mainly a coffee shop so if you come for coffee and maybe some baked items you should be fine. This sure doesn't replace the Funky Fork than closed 2 years ago. They did have a steady stream of customers though. I think that if they up their game in the sandwiches and general food area they could be a destination for those who don't want to visit another chain café. I did enjoy the coffee though. I would give them a 1 or 2 for food quality and a 3 or 4 for the coffee quality. The gift store has a metaphysical theme so if you are into that they have lots of things to browse through. Until subsequent reviews indicate that the food has improved we'll only stop here for the coffee.

We were looking for a place to get a quick lunch and then spotted Violet Mae's Bakery. As soon as…read morewe walked in we noticed the white board with various menu items such as sandwiches, soup and one type of breakfast sandwich. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with ham and my wife ordered a BLT. I also ordered a coffee. While we were waiting for our food we looked around to see what else is available. There were two fridges for frozen meals that could be taken home and reheated. There were some basic groceries such as eggs as well. Of course, being a bakery, there were lots of breads, buns and pastries. Our orders didn't take long, but since there are no tables everything was to go. That's okay, I can eat in the car. My wife said her BLT was especially good. My breakfast sandwich was very filling but also tasty and not messy so it was easy to eat in the car. My coffee was not so great. It tasted like what I often make at home. That is something that Violet Mae's could improve on. However if you are passing through town and looking for a place for a quick lunch to go, or you need to pick up some bread for later, this is your place. It's only a block from the highway and near the west end of Whitecourt.

As we walked in the friendly owners offered us a sample of a fresh donut and pointed to the chalk board for the menu. There isn't a huge variety of menu items but that's good because a small cafe can't make dozens of different dishes and make them all good (or affordable). You can order soup, sandwiches, wraps, and lots of different pastries because it is a bakery cafe after all. We both ordered the breakfast sandwich. It's a lot bigger than it looks. There were certainly two eggs in each sandwich and maybe even three plus some ham and sauces. On this extremely hot July day the cafe's air conditioning was just what we needed. We did order coffee on this hot day because we hadn't had our coffee fix yet today. The coffee was very good. If you are looking for breakfast or lunch or just a treat to go, I recommend Shekinah.

We recently visited Rojo Marrón and had a really great experience overall!…read more We ordered the fish tacos, beef street tacos, and the "Espropapa" (definitely not spelling that right ). The Espropapa was honestly a standout -- absolutely delicious. The chipotle dip that came with it was AMAZING, and the presentation was a 10/10. The potato was sliced into a spiral and served on a stick, which made it both fun and visually impressive. The fish tacos were also excellent. They were cooked perfectly, full of flavour, and topped with fresh vegetables. The chipotle mayo sauce paired with them was sooo good and really brought everything together. The beef street tacos were still very good and not dry at all, but compared to the other dishes they were slightly underwhelming. Still enjoyable, just overshadowed by how strong the other items were. Service was great -- our server was friendly, loved to chat, and checked in on us regularly without being overbearing. They even brought out a bucket of different sauces labeled with spice levels, which was a fun touch and let us customize the heat. The decor was very Mexican-themed and added a lot of character to the space. The tables looked a bit worn, but honestly it added to the overall style and vibe rather than taking away from it. Overall, a really enjoyable meal with great flavours, fun presentation, and welcoming service. Definitely worth a visit!
