What is up with this place. The owners are the worst! Honestly, to anyone looking for a job,…read moreplease do not waste your time working for Drumroaster. The owners have zero, I mean NO, dedication to their staff. I heard another employee who dedicated years to this place, was simply just let go. These people are cheap and literally gain their wealth off the backs of the people that dedicate their time to this establishment. Employees are treated like trash, that can be disposed of. There are better places, with honest, friendly owners who will appreciate you. The owners of Drumroaster are cheap, they will cut anyone if you can be replaced by someone who will start at a lower wage. It's been proven over and over again. Zero stars because the owners are a joke!

Lovely coffee shop within the Mill Bay Shopping Centre. Staff are friendly & knowledgeable about…read moretheir drinks & food. I like the different seating options & the big windows allowing so much natural light inside. Even on a rainy day, you get an energetic community vibe sitting inside as this place is popular with all ages. The coffee shop always has specialty drinks but I'm quite happy with their tea & mocha options. The panini is a perfect size for a lighter lunch & remember to save room for their really tasty dessert options. My favourite is the cookie sandwich that's dipped in chocolate. It's actually the size of the panini (perfect if you got a sweet tooth!). If you find the line up long, take a wander through the back corner of the coffee shop. There's local products that make nice gifts or special treats for yourself. I also like this coffee shop as it is all one level from parking lot into coffee shop. I have yet to get there in good weather but there seems to be space for tables outside for nicer days. Washroom is a decent size but I do wonder if someone in a wheelchair would be able to make the turn/ tighter angle due to the divider wall between seating & the washroom. Cane & walker users would be fine though. I look forward to stopping here when I get the chance for another mocha & continuing to try different light lunch options & their very lovely snacks/desserts.

This is a tough one for me to review. My wife likes extra strong coffee. I don't. The coffee at…read morethis cafe was strong...far too strong for me, but fine for my wife. It's a nice place, if a little bucolic. There is a variety of baked goodies to choose from, most wrapped in cling wrap which makes one wonder about their provenance. But the cinnamon brioche was good, the almond and blueberry thing was a little dry and sort of ordinary. If my visit here today was typical, I would advise those who don't want teeth curlingly strong coffee to pass by and look for something different. Anyway the place is nice, the staff are friendly, and it's a good place to spend a lazy hour.

The pork was out of this world, best pork tacos I've ever had. Fish and shrimp tacos were good as well.

This is about the worst Mexican food I've eaten, and I've eaten in many Mexican restaurants,…read moreincluding in Mexico. I got chicken quesadillas. The chicken inside was ok. They arrived on a paper in a plastic basket and were drenched in grease. The sour cream on the side was very watery. The salsa fresca was mostly just diced up flavorless tomatoes; very bland. Plus there was just a tiny cup of each, so not much to cut the greasiness. Waitress never came out to see if I wanted anything more. The horchata (rice drink) was also at least twice as watery as normal. Are they cutting costs by watering things down? The outside eating area could have been nice, but it is very neglected. The pots held mostly weeds and the seats and ground had lots of old dead leaves. It's summer now, not Fall, so those leaves have been there a while. The food was very slow in coming even though there was just one other table. (Folks at that table were also complaining of the long wait). The reggae music was nice (but a further indication this is not a real Mexican place). This place needs some serious attention from someone who cares.
