The lovely K and I stopped in to this place on New Years Day on a road trip from Courtenay to…read moreCampbell River on the old Island Highway. We didn't expect a place such as this on the highway in between towns to be open at 11 AM on New Years Day, but there it was beckoning our hungry selves. Boy are we happy we stopped! The place is small and attached to a general store which looked to be well stocked. The restaurant was busy but the tables turned quick and we sat and were very promptly served by a smiling young man who took our tea orders and dropped water for us as well. We were given a little appetizer of blueberries, dragon fruit and pineapple along with a delicious obviously home made nut loaf which was delicious! Our orders were taken and the food delivered very quickly and piping hot. The portions were generous and well prepared. We would certainly stop by this little diamond in the rough if we find ourselves on the old Island Highway again. Thanks for a great meal!

Everything was great: fluffy pancakes, perfect eggs and bacon, nice ham -- all the usuals were spot on. Ingredients seem fresh. Coffee wasn't my favourite, but that's subjective. There was a supply delivery that morning so coffee refills were really slow. Maybe it wash just the server that day. Prices were a little on the high side. I mean it was all good but I wouldn't frequent this place if I was a regular. Location wasn't too far out of the new town area. I'd go there again if I was passing through.

There wasn't much choice, so we just picked this closest one. My husband ordered a burger, but he didn't feel that the burger was any special. Coming from someone that loves burgers... that says something. I ordered the seafood penne; the sauce was too thick to swallow and so the dish was overall very dry. Chicken wings were on special that night, so we got it 10 for $3. I thought a pub wouldn't do chicken wings wrong, but all of them were over fried and dry, so we couldn't finish them. They also didn't know what honey garlic flavour means and just sprayed a lot of garlic salt on top. Both of us aren't pub-goers so we don't know if we were the weird ones for requesting that flavour???
