This place is so good I really don't feel like sharing it with anyone :)…read moreThat'd be too selfish though, even for me. The cafe is by no means posh from the outside. Once you step in you immediately relax as there's something familiar about it.

I highly recommend the seafood chowder and I suggest you try the Sacred Water (house brew). They have separate menus for brunch and dinner and there's something for everyone.
