The little grey building

Nice little coffee shop in back of the home store... soon to be up front with a restaurant in back. Coffee and pastries were great. Very friendly service. Indoor and outdoor seating. You can probably find easy parking nearby in this small town. I like that they are environmentally conscious.

Miso Roasted Cauliflower

Oh, my goodness! What a gem this little town has!!! We travel the US and overseas 44 weeks a year and have enjoyed some wonderful foods in the countries we've visited. The small, but excellent, Japanese inspired menu is off the charts wonderful. We ordered five small plates to share between us, along with a very fruity Reisling produced in NS. The up front coffee bar serves every kind you can imagine, with breakfast sandwiches, pastries, croissants... I've posted my pictures here to highlight the creativity in presentation. The owner/chef came out to see how we enjoyed it. Service was excellent, even though they were down one server.

Cappuccino. $4.

Wonderful respite coffee house in Bear River! On an…read moreunusually hot and muggy day, SCR offered a comfortable air conditioned space with strong wifi. The cold brew Sissiboo coffee was fantastic! We ended up not staying for lunch, BUT the salad, veggie burger and homemade quiche all looked great! I also noticed they offered the tiniest cheesecakes. Perfect for people who only want a little bit when it comes to dessert! We liked this place so much, we're planning to circle back around at the end of our trip!

Between August 28-31 of this year, I visited my girlfriend's family cottage in Bear River...all the…read moreway from Vancouver! At first, this village looks dull and sleepy, but things are happening in Bear River. Residents are looking inwards to agriculture and local talent rather than outwards to tourists for economic stimulation. One example can be seen in the Flight of Fancy art gallery, which features local and provincial artists, and another can be seen in Sissiboo Coffee Roasters. The unique name 'Sissiboo' was derived from the Sissiboo River in southwest Nova Scotia. This river was named by a Loyalist settler who mistook a Mik'maq who was pointing out six owls ('six hiboux') instead of pointing out the river. Stupid colonialists. Based in the historic 'Rebekah' building, Sissiboo was started three years ago by Erin Schopfer and Jon Welch. After many years of analysing and learning about the coffee industry, Erin and Jon made the careful decision to launch a micro roastery in their hometown. Jon checks each batch by eye, hand, and smell at least four times during his roasting process - a process that is applied to each seven-pound batch. Each batch has an individual roasting time which has to be explicitly followed, a few seconds too long and the batch takes on an undesired flavour. This is different from most roasters, which employ laptops and software and crazy expensive machines to monitor their beans. Erin and Jon do not yet have a storefront or café, but I think this is a no-brainer for their brainchild. I have tried three of their roasts: Fundy Storm (Peru, dark), Tobeatic Wild (Guatemala, medium), and Fly by Night Decaf (Peru, swiss water, medium). I did not like the lack of body and bitter finish of the Tobeatic Wild at all, but Fundy Storm is great as both a dark pourover or espresso. They do, for your information, have an espresso roast as well called Night Owl!
