This place is so cute!! I came here to pick up a dessert box special they had for Valentine's day…read more The person behind the cash was friendly, and the teas we ordered were given to us almost seconds after we ordered them. The lights were dimmed which made it so much cozier! The store was fairly empty and quiet, which I loved. What I loved even more was the decor and the effort put into the little cute details in the store! The desserts and tea were pretty good, not the best out there but certainly not the worst. Would definitely come back again with friends!

The breakfast menu is varied enough to keep it interesting, and the service is good. The staff is friendly. It has been under newer ownership for about the past 2 years, and I only just found out about it recently - through the Stittsville News (boy oh boy do I miss those community newspapers! Shame on them for closing!) It's not a fancy place, with cement floors, but they have art for sale on the walls, which brightens the place up a bit. The pace is cozy and casual and seems to attract many regulars. I would like to get my little group of knitting friends to meet here at least occasionally. Shopping local really works!

The cafe is adorable with a lovely fireplace but even better is the healthy, unique menu which includes smoothies, juices, desserts, and entrees. Since we had recently eaten breakfast we got a juice, smoothie, stuffed grapefruit, and yogurt/granola bowl. Everything was delicious. Hope we can time a stop here on our travels back through the area.

Boyfriend and I met his cousin here this afternoon at her suggestion. Beautiful little café and it…read morewas nice to go somewhere else than a chain for once! Beautifully decorated with a vintage vibe and lots of shabby-chic pieces. They seem extremely popular and busy even mid-afternoon; jammed-packed the whole time we were there and with a waiting line-up for a table. Gentleman who seemed to be the owner or manager was extremely pleasant and went above and beyond to find us a table quickly (even moving chairs around) after Cousin and I explained that Boyfriend (who was outside parking the car) would never wait for the 30 min announced at first. All the staff there seemed very nice, fast, constantly cleaning, arranging seating, serving, etc. We only had coffees (which were fine but nothing mind blowing) so I cannot judge on the menu. Would recommend this place though, if only for the super hardworking staff!

There were two employees, so the wait time was considerable. Hopefully, the next time will it will be quicker customer service. The food was good my friend had crêpes she enjoyed them. My other friend had chicken curry wrap. She enjoyed it. My daughter had prepared baked goods, lattes, which we liked.. all in all a good experience but little bit loud as it was so busy, some nice background music would help balance out the noisiness from other customers.

Of course, you can't just sit down in any restaurant these days to enjoy your food, because of COVID. But you CAN get a treat and take it away. You can eat outside, especially when it's sunny out and the weather is nice. Or serve them for desert to your family, while celebrating thanksgiving, or birthday(s). I like to bake, but to be honest, I'm not so good with the fancying up the baked goods - too much like "playing with your food"! We tried a package of 6, and saved 10%, which was very nice. Bear in mind that these are not your average pastries; they are in fact more expensive. You'll pay between $2.50 and $3.50 per doughnut. But they really are beautiful! And I really did need a pick-me-up! And I really enjoyed the goo-ier ones... Lots of sugar rush in these :-) I will remember this place for special occasions!
