As for food, I order the bacon breakfast burrito. This burrito was very large and had hatch chiles peppers, eggs, potatoes, cheese and bacon accompanied by a side of salsa. I thought there was great combination of heat between the salsa and the hatch chile peppers. I also got a chai latte, which had a cinnamon housemade chai. It was very good if you like chai. I was disappointed that when I came in their pastry case had only 2 scones (pretty much empty for a Monday Morning) so beware that they might not have baked goods if you visit. The location is very convenient though. Due to the close proximity to the ferry station, this also easy to grab a quick bite before hopping on.

We go here everytime we have 10 minutes or more before the next boat. This time I got a lavendar latte with oat milk. This can be a risky drink to get because often the syrup is too bitter. But yet again Aviator piloted this drink perfectly. Get a crepe across the street but leave room in your budget for this local roaster.

J'aime Les Crêpes

Incredible crêpes and wonderful service! The girls behind the counter endure a very hot, tiny…read morekitchen, and lots of customers stressed and pressed for time waiting for the ferry. They do their job wonderfully, quickly, and with a smile. Always look forward to a crêpe here, whether it's breakfast, a savory lunch or dinner, or a dessert ferry snack. They're delicious, the batter is perfectly thin and crispy, and they put a lot of ingredients in!

Honestly, moi, je n'aime pas THESE crêpes, but many I know seem to like them, so maybe I am a snob…read more I lived in France way back when and enjoyed many a crêpe there. ACTUALLY, here at J'aime Les Crêpes, the crêpes themselves seem fine. It's that they load them with WAY too much goo. Gooey goo goo. Mountains of gooey sweetness. They have a captive audience of hungry, bored ferry passengers just awaiting transport, and perhaps these people are goo lovers one and all, besides me. I mean my worst, number one hated food is fudge, so if you love fudge then perhaps do not heed my opinion and get a sweet, sloppy, goolicious crêpe. Like I said, I have friends who will, in passing by, eat these crêpes and enjoy the experience. The shop IS cute, and the service seems fine. The walk-up window is fun and convenient. The price is typical for eating out, which is to say, pretty damned expensive, but that is not J'aime Les Crêpes fault in the slightest. And yes, in general, j'aime les crêpes also, but for me, please hold the ginormous mountains of sticky thicky goo.

Really nice vegan empañadas made from sweet potatoes. I believe they also have a sweet empañada…read moreoption that may be vegan too, but I always go with the savory. The chimichurri was good, although a tad oily and messy compared to last time. It's a little pricey for the size of the empañadas, but they are filling, so it's OK. The young man who works behind the counter is super chill and nice. It's also a good place to go if you missed the ferry and have to wait for the next boat -- you can see the ferry lanes from the park in front of the eatery! There's also a cute little porch with a few small tables and chairs.

Please be prepared that they do not take any cash so please bring a card or applepay. When I went, I got a small scoop that I was able to split into two separate flavors: Passionfruit sorbet and the snickerdoodle. The Passionfruit sorbet was extremely fresh and crisp that it brought back to my times visiting Asia and getting passionfruit smoothies and ice cream. The Snickerdoodle was fantastic and had loads of cinnamon with snickerdoodle cookie dough bits. I took of a star because the seating is EXTREMELY limited. There is no seating indoors and only one table outside.

A food counter. No place to sit. You can try samples before committing to your choices…read more This place gets crowded on warm summer week-ends! It can be a bit of a wait. And they do run out of flavors. On a hot Sunday evening, near closing-time, the store was nearly empty. Thankfully, they still had my favorite flavour (I guess that blueberry sorbet isn't popular?), so alles gut! This store carries ice creams from a few local producers, along with ice cream sandwiches and the like. You may have spotted the brands in nicer supermarkets. It's posh ice cream, so expect to pay a premium price, but the quality is there. We're big fans of "dark elf" (dark chocolate with more dark chocolate), mint and chocolate chips, and the fruity sorbets.

My grilled meatloaf sandwich was delicious, but it was a good 5 1/2 inches in diameter and so thick that with everything else, I can only eat 1/4 of. Leftovers was a bit better than that I was able to eat a half a sandwich. I made a joke that it was my "side of beef" sandwich. My son-in-law's chicken sandwich was awesome and so was my wife's Katsu pork sandwich. I also had the passion fruit cheese cake. That was yummy! The employees, even though swamped, took care of us and are cheerful. The restaurant has a homey feel. We ate outside, though in the park next to it. They carried Bedford's brand of sodas, and they are awesome! The Marion Berry cream and the root beer was so good. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

Consistently below expectations both with the caliber of their baked products and their flippant…read more"service"-- if you can call it that. First their baked goods are stodgy and not properly executed. Their shortbread tastes like cardboard and is nothing like English shortbread should be. No good butter in evidence here. Their koign amman is not even crisp on the outside. There is something off with each baked item. If you enjoy dump and go style baking that don't require any refinement but are full of American sugar, I think you will feel this is an elite bakery. Otherwise, this is a bad knock off attempt. Scones seem to be chewy and tasteless. I got a "lemon poppyseed" polenta cake where there was no lemon-y flavor at all! It was also heavy and couldn't handle more than 3 bites at a time. Stuck in the gullet. Second their service is appalling. The people behind the counter are all in on some inside ball game and customer service is not their emphasis. They are looking away while half-heartedly asking you what you would like, and more interested in serving up verbal repartees to their co-workers while distractedly trying to complete a sale. You can expect to repeat your order a few times. Then there's the off-handed use of bakery tissue which is not quite neat and hygienic. I mean it's a shambolic operation that gets away with it because there is no competition in Kingston unless you take the ferry across to Edmonds.
