What a cool little gem right on Main Street! At first we drove past this place while thrift…read moreshopping until we did a little more research online and went back. This place is indeed a cafe. A very affordable and fresh lunch spot. They've got coffee and tea. For inside or to take home. The cool thing is that this place sells vintage wares and goods. There are a lot of hidden treasures here at half the price of antique shops. If you're in Steinbach, be sure to stop in here for lunch and to browse before you head out. We were pleasantly surprised.

The dining area was clean, well kept and took me back to spending summers with my family at our cottage with the log cabin vibe and homie decor. The menu offered a wide array of options for both meat eaters and vegans a like. I got the veggie burger and it was very good, it was a chickpea based burger with a lovely curry aioli. My friend had the goat cheese burger and was happy with the flavours but disappointed with the construction of the patty.

Same location but new look and updated name! Now called the Secret Garden Cafe, the bistro is still…read morelocated inside Shelmerdine's Garden Centre. The best part is that it is now about 10 times bigger than the previous set up. Loads of seating and an upgraded menu to go with the new look. This is a long time coming as the garden centre is out of town and a bit of a drive from most food venues. Definitely worth skipping lunch at a fast food chain and supporting the cafe that has some surprisingly fresh soups, salads and other menu items. Cool off with freshly made lemonade or a selection of multiple flavours of gelato. Lots of other cold and hot drink choices including coffees and teas. If you're heading to the garden centre, be sure to stop in to the upgraded cafe.

The hours are currently limited but we spoke with the new owners and they're planning on expanding them very soon. There is something for everyone here. They've got specialty coffees (surprisingly decent tasting for a small espresso machine), desserts including home made cookies, pies, cakes and fudge. The lunch menu is pretty extensive for a small place. Soups, sandwiches and more are currently on the menu. One of the best parts about this place is that they're licensed! They've got beer and wine to go with your dessert. The only downside is they advertise craft beer but it comes in cans and is a limited selection. We were expecting beer on tap since that's more of what the craft experience is. However, most of their selection is local (MB) beer which is fantastic. We will definitely be back and look forward to recommending this place to all of our friends. We're excited for the extended hours so we can stop in more frequently on the way out to the cottage.

Used to be a nice place but then someone new took over now it's dirty and un taken care of.read more

Or... a cute little stop off the beaten path. Thanks to the coffee roasters in Elma, MB, the cafe has their own blend of coffee. We didn't try it, but the beans smelled lovely. The menu isn't anything too special, but it's a cute little atmosphere and has a decent sized patio. They're licensed! Options are limited, but you can get locally brewed (Neepawa) Farmery beer here. The food menu is your typical chain looking kind of food. Take a look at pics for the menu. Nothing seems to be homemade from what we saw. Overall, a friendly place to stop if you're in the middle of nowhere and need a stop and some food.
