If you're one that likes to be on the healthier side of meals, like the keto or vegan or gluten…read morefree diet, then this is the place to be in downtown Kentville, NS. Charming cozy ambiance fills this restaurant. They don't have no fancy decor or expensive table cloths but they do have delicious tasting food. Their menus, written on the walls. They also offer take out meals that are either gluten free or keto. I've had the opportunity to try their breakfast sandwich and that was very good, the bread I believe was gluten free, and it was filled with eggs, bacon, and mayo. Also, their keto Pumpkin latte was also very good. The place takes part in the holidays and lining the window ledge are the different designed ginger bread houses. Not sure who designed them. Overall, I was quite happy with all the food and the drinks and the experience I had here. I'll be back in January in Kentville and I will be back here soon as I can.

My daughter has celiac and this place has been a game changer for us. We often serve this stuff to guests who rave about it and then are incredibly surprised to find out its gluten free. They should also be applauded for and are proof that gluten-free doesn't have to cost 3 to 4 times as much as "regular" bakery items. We get absolutely gouged by most gluten free options, this place has great prices. Great taste, quality, price, selection and the staff are warm and helpful.

The Cackling Goose Market in Sackville is a great place to shop for organic, gluten free and…read morevegetarian foods, formerly Jacob's Larder. While in Sackville, we stopped in here for an afternoon break to check out the place. Located near Mt. Allison University, this unique market (in an old yellow house) offers a good selection of organic and gluten free groceries, health foods, and vegetarian products. They carry vitamins, dietary supplements, fair trade organic coffee, teas, cheeses, chutneys, salsa, buckwheat flour, bread mixes, lentils, flaxseed, organic baking mixes, organic molasses, ceramic teapots, handcrafted goods, and much more. The back of the market houses a cozy gluten free bakery cafe counter offering fresh gluten free & organic baked goods (focaccia thin buns, cinnamon buns, muffins, cookies, cakes, breads), sandwiches, soups, salads, fair trade organic coffees espresso, lattes, and real fruit smoothies. The menu is gluten free and vegetarian with vegan and dairy free options. There's seating along the back window and outside covered patio seating in front of the market. Before heading out, we shared two gingerbread cookies (organic & gluten free) for our light snack. The cookies were coated with granular sugar on the top which had a soft and very chewy dense texture and overall not sugary sweet. This fine "Goose" is definitely worth checking out!

This is a pretty new spot for the south shore of Nova Scotia, just started table service in June…read more It's nicely decorated, but a bit sterile, needs some wall art to reflect its character. It's a cafe, so not surprisingly its menu is limited. Only about four meal items, but lots of smoothies, snacks, and desserts. Not licensed but has a good selection of soft drinks. It's co-branded as a fish and chip place and as all gluten free so naturally I had gf fish and chips. There are now three gf fish and chips offered in the area. All very good but this is the only one that comes with hand cut fries and house made tartar sauce. Delicious! It's not a large serving but very reasonably priced. For dessert I had two energy balls and a coffee. Very good and made me feel healthier than having one of the three delicious sounding desserts. The owner/chef/waiter is extremely helpful and attentive. He is obviously very dedicated to providing great food and service to his customers. A great addition to our local restaurant offerings and wonderful to have more gluten free options. I think a five star is within reach, I'll try a few more menu options and see how the menu evolves.

The majority of the wrap consisted of French fries. I've had fries in wraps before but this was excessive and the fries weren't great.

Slices will run you $12-18, but you are getting quality here. No cheap ingredients and nothing is overly sweet. Tastes exactly as a cheesecake should. Options are limited but rotating. The seating set up isn't great and neither is the use of space, so we suggest walking up to the counter and taking your order to go. Staff is super friendly and helpful and asked if we had been before - something everywhere should do. Overall a really great choice. No hype; just great cheesecake.

Horrible service …read more They did not follow our allergy concerns at all. They literally told us that we will be waiting a while for our food because they are too busy. The place was half empty.

We even waited 15 minutes to be sat without a single hello. They saw us but did not care. Horrific service!
