We love the coffee here. Lots of flavour with a sweeter finish. The baked goods, especially the pop tarts are 'to die for'. Yum. The menu has some great choices and we've had two good overall healthy breakfasts here....and some less healthy but delicious baked goods as well. Service is overall good, but not quite amazing. If there were half stars, they'd get an overall 4.5 rating from me, due to service. Decor is ship like, and nicely executed. Rotating art exhibits make the space even more interesting. A large outdoor patio is a great space to people watch.
Hubby and I enjoyed stopping here to try their americano and some pastries. The homemade Poptart was delicious and looked super Instagram worthy. The coffee was strong, hot, and delicious. We were able to grab a seat outside because the weather was perfect and enjoyed the ambiance as we sipped our drinks. My only complaint is that their complimentary wifi was not very good. We asked a few times getting connected and still couldn't manage to connect.
Great coffee and food. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommend checking out this place. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and the atmosphere is very casual and pleasant.
On a rainy summer day we found Receiver Coffee, while visiting PEI from the United States. Both the food, coffee drinks and kid's hot chocolates were delicious and high quality. We order a drip coffee, americano, hot chocolate, samosa, croissant, pop tart, and breakfast sandwich. We also took home a gluten-free brownie for my mom. I highly recommend visiting this coffee shop.
TLDR: Personally probably would not visit again (we just wanted to get a quick bite to eat, but were mislead by the rave reviews) The argument - Atmosphere: Loud, a bit too warm (too loud for my mornings) with limited seating - Taste (Coffee and chocolate croissant): Average (chocolate croissant had very little stuffing and not enough taste), coffee a bit stiff and not as aromatic and melodic as the grinder - Service: Slow, but on par (seemed short staffed) - Cost: $$ ($9 for a cup of coffee & croissant) tips and taxes extra - notoriously LOUD machinery and limited seating, optional to sit OUTSIDE weather permitting. Expect a 10 mins wait for coffee and a croissant or a 15 minute wait for brunch.
Delicious coffee! I had a very dirty chai. The outdoor seating is lovely. This place is centered in a touristy area. It's a walkable commercial type area where the cruise line docks. The bulletin board has some very interesting community posts that highlight local buisness, local events like auctions and jigs. Highly recommend.
Wow-what a way to start your day! Coffee with looks to kill, and a beautiful blend of tasty bean! If you love coffee, and have a high expectation for great coffee, this is where you want to go. Great breakfast options too.
We came back on another trip to Charlottetown. The place always has a lineup out the door. Hubby got the receiver breakfast and asked for scrambled eggs but got omelette style...not a big deal. The potatoes had zero seasoning or flavour but the home made ketchup was interesting. I asked for the Thai quinoa bowl with tofu scramble. They forgot the tofu but brought it on the side a few minutes later. The quinoa bowl was tasty with a hint of spice and the tofu was curry flavoured and delicious. Great location just outside the confed centre. Offers soup, sandwiches, breakfast items, coffees, desserts, etc. Pricing is moderate....not cheap but slightly less expensive for some items than other places (powerball was $2 and was a decent size and was vegan). Lots of vegan options...I had the smoothie bowl. Hubby had a sandwich and coffee. There are tables and chairs inside on 2 levels and an outdoor patio where you can watch live singers performing at various times. They use actual dishes and paper straws.
Great atmosphere, there are plenty of seats and services is great and prompt. They have easy listening coffee house music. I came in for breakfast as I saw the Huevos Rancheros in another post. It wasn't that bad. Crispy tostadas under the eggs, served with pickled jalapeños and pickled onions. You can have it as a burrito but that would just be a waste. Finished my breakfast with a tasty cinnamon bun. I enjoyed my meal with their Brazilian roast drip coffee
Found this place thanks to fellow yelpers. Wanted to have a good cup of coffee and a nice little breakfast. I found both definitely on point at this place. It's nice rustic and youthful ambiance matched with very friendly and helpful staff, makes this place a highlight for your morning start. I'll be back for sure!

Hubby and I stopped in after a nice walk around town. Very cozy coffee shop with a nice selection of beverages and food. The chai latte was really good (made from scratch chai tea leaves vs pre-made mix), and served in a lovely large ceramic mug that gave me the "stay awhile" vibe. Hubby had a black coffee and a REALLY yummy breakfast sandwich (the toasted bread really made the sandwich), and the ingredients inside were fresh and flavorful. Nice mix of locals working inside and folks stopping by for a quick bite. Loved the interior. Really nice worker greeted us as soon as we came in and explained the seating/service options. We'd go back! read more
Receiver Coffee's Victoria Street location nails that relaxed, inviting coffeehouse vibe--warm wood, plenty of light, and a mix of locals and visitors starting their day. We sat outside, enjoying the summer air and watching the downtown hum along. The food here leans simple but thoughtful. The Island Hot Cake was fluffy and satisfying, and the Fry Up breakfast (with bacon) hit all the right notes--especially the potatoes. Maybe it's just PEI magic, but even as a side, they stand out. Our lattes and matcha latte were smooth and well-crafted, and the pacing felt unhurried in the best way. Service was friendly without being overbearing, and it's the kind of place where you can linger with your coffee without feeling rushed. If you're in Charlottetown and want a reliably good breakfast with a quality cup of coffee, Receiver is worth the stop--especially if you can grab a patio seat. read more

Loved the breakfast options and topped off with a perfect flat white. Highly recommend unless you prefer to have your coffee in buckets from Starbucks. read more

Food and beverages are accommodating to dietary restrictions. It has very tasty vegan options, and is well priced for good quality breakfast and lunch options. I had the vegan version of the fry up and every part was a hit. The atmosphere is very cozy, with a nice patio outside. read more

My husband and I visited PEI for the first time and this was a must to visit for breakfast. It was even better we anticipated. I had the fry up, the focaccia was incredibly soft and full of flavour, the potatoes were cooked perfectly, and everything was well seasoned. My husband had the island cakes, they had a touch of cinnamon in them which was unexpected but oh so delicious. The fruit that came with it was bright and fresh and the lemon curd was perfect. We both had tea lattes, chai and a fog and they were a delicious start to the morning. read more

Depresso... The feeling you get when you run out of coffee! I need coffee and I need it now! Watch out! I was attending a Farmers's Market on Victoria Row and I was starving. There was tons of food at the festival but the lines were so long that I didn't feel like waiting. I noticed that there was a cute coffee shop right behind the vendors. They looked busy but the line looked like it was moving fast. A perfect place to stop and get coffee and a sandwich. Their menu is simple and they served breakfast during the day! I ordered a coffee and breakfast sandwich. I made it with egg whites and turkey meat instead of bacon. I love places that make modifications! My sandwich came out hot and the bread was nicely toasted. All the ingredients tasted fresh and the sandwich was big enough to fill me up! I left feeling happy with no more depresso! read more

Visited Receiver Coffee practically everyday while staying in PEI/Charlottetown. The coffee was on point and served in mason jars, the bfast selection was a good mix of substantial savory and sweet at reasonable prices for a "resort" town, the cookies looked (and tasted) phenomenal, and the baristas were all the epitome of friendly Canadians. I loved the big, open windows, the outdoor seating, the high tops inside, and the tables above the cashier area overlooking the entire space. A big shout out in particular to one of the baristas that suggested we check out Point Prim Chowder House (https://www.yelp.com/biz/point-prim-chowder-house-belfast)...it was easily the best meal/experience during our trip. read more
