I find it interesting the shop also sells gifts like mugs, t-shirts, shorts and other Knick-knacks. This is basically getting coffee and smoothies to go.

Coffee is still good as it is smooth without an acidic aftertaste. Stop here if you like your espresso and smoothies.

There was only one gal running in and out to bring food and clear tables. The meals were truly great I thought as far as being full with good portions and properly cooked as asked. I mean nothing really special but all really good basic stuff. Like homemade on steroids! I didn't like the first table we picked as it was uneven and rocked, spilling sloshed liquids on the table. I think there are no handymen or even handy ladies left nowadays. The atmosphere was laid back but not too backwater. There was an outside area too. For some reason I didn't realize the restaurant was going to be right at the terminal suddenly as you arrive. I imagine they do takeouts for those whose scheduled departure doesn't leave enough time for sit down meals. The ferry to Sultry Bay has a minimalist cafeteria , if even that. Grab the good food first! We're were all happy. Coffee was good.

The biscuit was perfect--buttery, fluffy, and nicely crusty on the outside. The hollandaise was also quite good. However, the eggs were a bit overcooked for my preference; the whites were solid and the yolks were mostly set rather than runny. Overall, it was a very flavorful meal, and I will definitely return when I'm back on the Sunshine Coast

Aside from an inviting outdoor spot in town to sit down and relax, the only thing this place has going for it is the selection of baked goods. The apple fritter was probably the best thing in the menu, while honorable mention goes to the lemon loaf.

This is a great cafe to grab a coffee, any other hot drinks &/or something tasty to eat. Word to…read morethe wise, kitchen shuts an hour prior to actual closing time. So no tasty sandwiches that last hour. However, you can still order the remaining baked treats that last hour there open (& really, that's not a bad thing if you have a sweet tooth!). The layout feels like it's two shops & allows for lots mixed seating & one great long table with giant benches. This also means one needs to be able to navigate through tighter spots easily if you're sitting down before your order is ready (or for my friends that look for accessible work arounds, going through the doors opposite to the sign suggestions to avoid any unfortunate drink/food disasters would be a good strategy). There's separate entrance/exit doors but the way the long line up to order occurs inside, the exit door is smarter to enter into the cafe (if you're able). There's also some tables outside along the street & a bench along the wall. If the weather is decent, I usually opt for that outside option. Otherwise, I prepare myself for a louder cafe experience being that this location is busy right to the end of the day. The staff is always friendly here. I greatly appreciate that the cashier took time to ask about any soy in certain baked treat options I was considering (after finding out I couldn't do a tasty turkey sandwich I was hoping for). In the past I've enjoyed breakfast sandwiches & lunch sandwiches. Both worthy of me to return to enjoy again. Being that it's awhile since I stopped here, I opted to try their seasonal latte. Usually I go with their tasty mocha. So I have to say for all the spices listed in the drink, I really didn't taste the difference between that special seasonal latte & a regular latte. However, still a very decent latte & gave me the needed caffeine boost after wandering through my first QB Christmas market before stopping at the cafe. As Qualicum Beach is known for their senior population, this place (like many others) has the basics checked off for accessibility. However, if I had anyone joining me with a walker or wheelchair, I would definitely suggest we find a table first & then I would go up to order for everyone. This being even with a cane, I find it is really hard to navigate back to the tables once you've got the order. They have a small bathroom tucked at the back but you need to be able to navigate around many tables to reach it. The lightning never bothers my eyes in here but at full capacity, anyone with hearing issues or noise sensitivity would have issues. Overall, a decent local place with a lot of regular tasty menu items.
