I am a huge fan of this business. Coffee is great, menu is succinct but manages to cover…read more'everyone', like gluten free, vegetarian, meat eater, etc. The best part, for me though, despite the great food, is the airy uncluttered decor. It is so easy to relax and simply enjoy a conversation (or get your Yelp review done ) in this relaxed space. On top of that, waitstaff are excellent, from seating thru to service.

We visited for takeout: two breakfast sandwiches (one as a combo with a coffee). The cafe has…read moregenuinely lovely vibes and beautiful decor, especially the abundant live plants. Unfortunately, our experience was tarnished by very poor and rude service. We were told the order would take 5-10 minutes, so we sat at an empty table. After a few minutes, a server approached us, abruptly asked we move to the 'communal table' because we had ordered takeout, and literally held out her hand to take my partner's coffee, stating no outside drinks were allowed. She took it and placed it behind the counter literally without any courtesy, please, or thank you. The person who took our original order never mentioned either the no-outside-drinks rule or any restrictions on where we could sit. After forcing us to move, the same server didn't even bring our food to the table, she just told us it was sitting on the counter. When we collected it, we only received the two breakfast sandwiches. The coffee that was included in the combo was completely missing (we didn't realize till after we left). We waited just under 25 minutes for a simple takeout order. The combination of uncommunicated rules, being demeaned and moved like we weren't welcome, the confiscation of the drink, and the incomplete order made the whole interaction feel disrespectful. The atmosphere is nice, but the rude service left such a bad impression... won't be back unfortunately.

I ate here since all the reviews were pretty comparable…read more The food is fine from eggs to pancakes and breakfast sandwiches you wont be disappointed in that regard. BUT. You order at a counter and then seat yourself. Fill your own coffee or tea. The food is then brought to you when its ready. You are allowed only ONE coffee refill. I asked for napkins. I was given 3 beverage napkins and felt as if I was imposing. I then stated "I need at least 4 napkins since there are 4 people you just took the order from in my group" But the meal was good I'd eat there again next time I'm in Kingston and do not want 100% sit down service

This is the best coffee shop/lunch stop in the area! Silver Springs is a lovely community, but…read morethis little gem makes it even better. The owners work tirelessly to bring quality atmosphere and food to it's patrons. They are so kind and friendly, and go out of their way to make sure your visit is enjoyable. Cafe le Matin has great coffee, breakfast and lunch menu items, but one of the best eggs benedicts I have had in Calgary. They have a few Korean dishes as well. The Bugolgi Long Burger is delicious and worth a try if you are feeling like trying something new and delicious. They also have Bipimbap. Their portions are very generous. You may have trouble finishing. As many businesses have struggled during COVID times, these folks have as well, but they are not giving up. Please support this family owned and operated business and keep your hard earned money local rather than supporting large chains who are often owned internationally. Also, they have some challenges with adjacent businesses inappropriately taking over the parking stalls directly in front of Cafe le Matin.

A gem of a bakery and cafe in downtown Kingston!…read more My review is only for the bakery and store portion of Pan Chancho. I haven't had the chance to dine in the cafe yet, mostly because it gets extremely busy, especially on weekends. That said, the bakery/store has so many great finds. Their bread is excellent quality and a great value for the size, at around $5 for a small loaf and $8 for a larger one. My favorite is the olive rosemary sourdough, which is absolutely delicious. The saucisson sec is another great local find. The baked goods offer a nice rotating variety, with everything from Québec maple chômeurs to Italian maritozzi. On my last visit, I tried the Vietnamese coffee panna cotta, which was excellent. There's also an large gluten-free selection, ranging from breads to fresh-baked goods. The gluten-free scones are a particular standout. Beyond the food, Pan Chancho also has a great selection of kitchen and pantry-related items, including spices, pasta, sauces, hand towels, reusable bags, and more. It's the kind of place where you can go in for a loaf of bread and easily leave with a whole bag of interesting little things. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in downtown Kingston! The bakery alone is reason enough to visit, even if you don't get a chance to sit down at the cafe.

While exploring Kingston for our first trip to Canada, we wanted to sample butter tarts. The Pan…read moreChancho Bakery did not disappoint. Coming from NC, the filling tasted like the inside of a pecan pie. Delicious! My Americano coffee was strong and hit the spot. My MIL and I also purchased baguettes and a cinnamon roll. All exceptional quality!
