This place has a major customer service problem: A server who is too stupid not to insult the…read morecustomers. There is a poster on one of the walls about the "Asian coffee experience". I asked at the counter if they serve Asian coffees. For some reason the server showed me bags of tea. I repeated that I was interested in coffee and pointed out the poster. She said "Oh that's from his travels." and then "How do they do it?" Before I had a chance to answer, she said in a snide tone "So you don't even know?" Like **I'm** the moron in the conversation. Excuse me, bich? Not only did I not get to speak, "Asian coffee" covers a large range of methods and styles, even different equipment. There is no 2-second answer to "how to make Asian coffee". I said "I do know, but I'm not getting into all that now." She made a face. But even if I didn't know, so what? I'm the *customer*, asking about drinks pictured on the *walls of the restaurant*. It's not my job to know, it's hers. Maybe she was lashing out because she felt stupid being caught not knowing about the posters in her own restaurant that she walks by every day. In any case, she handled it VERY badly. The correct response was "Sorry, no, we don't serve Asian coffee." As for the food, it's just OK. Below the skill level of an average home cook. Its main advantage is being lighter than the other options in town, which lean heavily towards fried food. One bite of the hummus was enough for me - it was ice-cold and sour. The bread was good, but I'm 100% certain they do not make it. The whole vibe is very amateur-hour, right down to the poorly hand-painted sign.

Service is very friendly here. It's the historical restaurant to go to in Southampton, as there's…read moreonly a handful of places to eat at. The inside of the restaurant is also nice with historical touches to it. The building is very beautiful and you can learn all about the Shirley of the building and family in the menu. Unfortunately the food is mediocre, verging on bad. We've tried this place 3 times to give it a fair shot as we really wanted to like it but I don't think we will return. - pasta : over sauced; the pasta I had with balls of cheese was warm with cold balls of cheese. Kids has jarred tomatoe sauce on pasta. - fish and chips- if you're looking for that nice light crunch with a crispy light coating- don't go here. It was soggy, and meh; coleslaw tasteless; fries on the verge of burnt. How you get fries wrong, who knows. - beef wrap - very saucy inside, - chicken curry - very salty, tasted like it was from a jar; the rice was underdone, I don't know how it's possible to not cook rice properly in a restaurant but this place did it. Coriander garnish was wilted and old, why bother even putting it on? Naan bread very crispy on one side. - ceaser drink was ok. Basic. - hamburger - tasted fine. Again, I think the service was friendly and the restaurant is nice but they dropped the ball on the food and are likely capitalizing on the history of the building rather than the food.

The sandwich was delicious - the salsa were a little underwhelming. My kids had brisket quesadillas and poutine (with queso on the side because it's spicy) and my husband has a pulled pork burrito.

This cute coffee shop on the main strip is warm and cozy, with friendly staff and bright, sunny front windows. I had the drip coffee (excellent) and watched as the barista prepared instagram-worthy espresso-based beverages for the customers before me. I took home a bag of their in-shop roasted coffee ("Cardinal", a medium-dark-roast Mexican bean) and was delighted with the flavour, clarity, and sweetness. Can't wait for our next trip to snag some more Dizziness!

Ordered the Fry Board, Fish Tacos and the Wiz Caesar. The Fry Board is a huge board filled with different types of Fries. Portion is huge, but not all of them were that well fried. I found myself wishing most of them were hotter and crispier. But the dips they came with were great. The Fish Tacos were very mediocre. The portions of fish were quite small, and the taco itself not that well dressed. The Caesar was nice and spicy if you like that. Seating is cool, they had a few picnic tables on sand actually. And the servers were all friendly but sometimes hard to find.

Biscuit are extremely soft and moist. Grandmas breakfast - side order of country fries ! Delicious fresh home fries packed with flavour. Our other side dish was breakfast French toast which was thought was mediocre but they at least gave us lots of maple syrup :D ! The last side dish was the sausage. That was also really good, doesn't like the frozen ones with preservatives but rather really fresh! For dessert we ordered rhubarb crisp! Must try! Delicious sweet and hit home for us! We got the carrot cake to go because we were impressed with their food and especially their baked good! We tried it when I got home although we were already full and definitely was not disappointed! We re definitely coming back here but next time with friends and family !
