I really liked the fish cake but one is never enough. It was mostly fish rather than the other stuff. I recommend both the soup and especially the fish cakes ($4.49 each in 2023). There is free WiFi so you can browse through your phone rather than talking to your guests if so desired. It's quite large inside so even if the parking lot is full there probably a table waiting for you. Washrooms were large and clean. The service was genuine and pleasant. We ordered dessert which we rarely do but the descriptions were enticing. I felt compelled to taste at least one of them. I really can't think of any negatives. Even the prices were quite reasonable. Well they were a bit high for the dessert but that's to discourage excessive eating. . If you are reading this you've probably already decided to eat here so enjoy.

I waited while they made a fresh urn, and they must have done something wrong because the 'coffee' that we were served was coffee-scented hot water. I've never dumped a coffee before this one. Oh, and don't bother with the bathrooms - there is no light switch and so the bathrooms are completely dark once you shut the door. The baking did look yummy. The place was otherwise cute. But DO NOT go here for coffee.

Several nights a week this operates as a restaurant called Fork with a different menu. Smells like bacon at lunch. Clean, bright, spotless and incredible view. Across the bay from ecological reserve for puffins - hoping to see some fly by! :) Friendly service, helpful with allergies. Perhaps a bit absentminded. Everything seems to be scratch made including the desserts. Naturally given the aroma there was a lot of bacon ordered at our table. Tasty BLT on fresh bread. Tangy lemon coconut square. Edit: washrooms - must deposit used toilet paper into a garbage can. Foot pedal on the garbage can does not work so you must use your hands to open it.

For two, plan on paying over 50 dollars for breakfast! If paying that much, you would think there would be at least someone refilling your coffee mugs, but even that you have to get up and request a refill! The Grounds breakfast costs 24 dollars, but over easy eggs were not, the muffin roll was over done on the bottom, and the bacon was under cooked and off tasting! The quiche had a nice crust, but lacked flavor, basically no flavor! Their pastry looked fresh and delicious! It and their coffee were the highlight of the meal! I had the lemon bar and the dark coffee! The atmosphere was okay, nothing special! I can't recommend it to others! (Red flag: paid for meal with requested tip prompt before receiving it)

We liked the outdoor seating so I thought it would be a great spot for a morning breakfast. The serving staff was very friendly and kind. We ordered two lattes and three breakfast sandwiches and we're a bit sticker shocked when the total came to $55. The breakfast sandwiches were ok but pretty greasy but the lattes were good. Overall a nice spot but the value for what you get wasn't great.

We walked to both places so driving and parking was not a problem. Interestingly there were a lot of classic vehicles going by. You can order beer, cocktails, soup, sandwiches and even coffee. We sat outside at the deck. It was really nice to sit and watch the people, cars and motorcycles pass by. The sandwiches ar interesting and not oversized or over priced. There is secure WiFi although it seemed to have difficulty reaching the deck. If you walked to Signal Hill you should stop at the Battery Cafe because you'll walk right past it and you deserve it.

After arriving, I ventured off the ship on my own and made my way to Water Street for a little shopping. While exploring the area, I came across this charming coffee shop. Esther and Jomana were working behind the counter today, and both were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and warm. I ordered a hot mocha latte, a Portuguese tart, and a Nutella strawberry brioche, all of which were homemade. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The mocha latte was rich and comforting, while the pastries were the perfect sweet treats to enjoy during an afternoon of exploring the city. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I ordered and was very happy with my choices. Combined with the excellent service from Esther and Jomana, it made for a wonderful stop during my afternoon in St. John's. I would gladly return the next time I am in town and highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone looking for delicious homemade pastries, excellent coffee, and genuine Newfoundland hospitality.

This cafe is located in downtown St. John's. The pastries are delicious and the decor is very cute!read more
