    Palestinian Breakfast
    Chance K.

    We arrived 10 minutes before opening on Saturday morning, and there was already a small queue. It's easy to see why this place is so popular. Not only is the food absolutely delicious, but the restaurant is so cozy and chic! We loved sitting at the window, sipping on coffee, and enjoying breakfast. Service was fast and friendly. I highly recommend the Palestinian Breakfast, but it's one of those menus where you can't really go wrong.

    9:10 am I'm writing this review live. I walk in to this place sat at the I'm the out of town guy table for one. Clean bright near the window across from the bar. I was I was seated immediately the server then brought a bottle of water from an old tequila bottle. It looks like their glassware short the water tasted clean and refreshing. 9:15: am I just ordered a vanilla latte and I would be lying if I didn't say this was the best tasting perfect temperature vanilla latte I ever had in my entire life unbelievable. The perfect cup as well. This is a trendy breakfast at restaurant. Nice crowd and perfect music. 9:22 am I ordered the chorizo hash. Now I'm waiting with excitement while I wait for my food. This place is now packed people have started to line up. There's takeout here BTW. The latte has made me so happy just ordered another one at 9:27 am. 9:31 am the Hash has arrived and OMG this was the best tasting meal breakfast I've had since being in Winnipeg for the last month. Now I'm just waiting for my latte and for the Bill. I will tell you come early get a table but it's well worth the wait. Hands Down one of the Best Breakfast I've ever had in my life. 5 Star Vibe 5 Star Latte 5 Star Breakfast 9:46 paid the bill. Breakfast for 2 will cost you about 60 bucks. What a Great Meal !!!

    shredded pork breakfast dish
    reid s.

    maybe the best eggs benedict i've ever had (which is saying a lot as it may well be my favorite breakfast). the cheddar and chive biscuit is incredible and really takes the dish to the next level. we actually had to buy an extra to go. great service. highly recommended.

    Beet Avocado Toast and baby potatoes

    The vibe is incredible. The staff so lovely and kind and hip. They told me how it used to be a lunch spot called modern electric lunch and they have super cool receipts from the 1920s framed on the wall. Recommend checking that out! I got the lavender London Fog and the avocado toast. Both great!

    Biscoff Latte seasonal drink

    I came in 11:12 am, sat down, and waited for my friend for 20 minutes. They were very polite to me. We stayed for over 1h30m. I noticed they advise against it, but they gave us no trouble at all, and I thank them for being so kind towards us. I enjoyed their breakfast sandwich. It was a delicious flavourful, sort of sweet (banana ketchup) savory sandwich. Everything was very well made Their biscoff latte is probably the best I've had!

    The Vegan Breakfast sandwich
    Jennyfer A.

    The waitresses were friendly and knowledgeable. I ordered the vegan breakfast sandwich and their vegan bacon was delicious! So were the vegan eggs. I would have ordered a drink but I wasn't thirsty after drinking the water they provided me. It came in a cool glass bottle with their logo and it quenched my thirst. Water is very good for the body! I've heard people in the past, complain about the high prices here but honestly they were average and decent. I'd say the prices are affordable. I recommend this place to everyone.

    Club sandwich and kale Cesar salad
    Janessa T.

    Absolutely loved this lunch. I walked in at noon and requested the club sandwich with a side salad to go. They had it ready in less then 15 min. Once I was able to open it and take a look I was very impressed. The sandwich held well together and just had a ton of great flavours blending together. (I could have done without the tomato confit, but that's my own issue to deal with). The kale Caesar salad was quite large once it was taken out of the container. Over all for 24.00 (after tax) I was very impressed.

It was very flavourful, and just the right size to go with the rest of the meal. I don't generally have dessert but I did have their evening special: a unique cinnamon bun bread pudding topped with apple "syrup". It did not disappoint. As always the potato "chips" were a delight with the tasty spread. I've now been here 4 times, but this is the first time I've tried the homemade oils provided on each table. Both were very tasty, but our server (Lindsay) accurately rated one as a 6/10 and the other 8/10 for "heat". But I like spice so all was good. Can't wait to try them on their pizza some time. My wife had had the house soup which she let me try - a tasty broth combination of kale, potato and sausage. It's now on my must try list.

There is generally a long wait if you don't come here within the first hour of opening, so do take care in getting here early if you want to minimize wait times. We ended up waiting 40 minutes-ish, which was fine with me. We did finally get seated, and since we spent the whole morning looking at the menu. We ordered the fried potatoes together. He got the fried chicken on toast for his main, and I got the lamb breakfast sandwich. I thought the food was only ok. The fried potatoes were decent. The cook on the potato was not really what I expected, as I thought the potatoes would be crispier. The sauce really saves this dish. I had a bite of the fried chicken on toast and it was pretty good. The chicken was well cooked and nicely seasoned. I also thought my lamb burger was just ok. The meat was pretty good but I wasn't a fan of the bun as it was a little dry. We did also order drinks. My boyfriend ordered matcha. He said it was ok and wished it was a little stronger. I had a caramel latte and thought it was good. Overall, this is a decent place to get brunch. I think if I were to come back, I would maybe try different menu items. The prices were good and the overall ambience is great.

We…read moredrove by this a couple nights ago so decided to stop by, unfortunately no time to play but just a coffee/dessert stop after our dinner. My feedback... - Our lattes were lukewarm so that's probably a 2-star on their own. GF carrot cake was pretty good. - Love the concept, everyone looks like they are having a great time which is 5+ - If I understand the pricing correctly, it's $10 per person regardless of how much food one orders. Feels like there should be some discount pending on the overall spending. - I saw a couple playing Uno, I did wonder why, I guess good for datenight. And looking at it a different way, you ate only paying labout $3.50 per hour. - All the staff we talked with were very friendly. - Hours are completely wrong on Yelp, check for the correct times on their website, they open late.

Since there's so many games to choose from there's almost a guarantee that you'll find one you haven't played before. It's fun trying new things out with friends. : )
