    Gingerbread cookie decorating station - December 2018

    Best little coffee shop in the valley! Small town charm with YUMMY eats. The Wild Oak is bright and clean with a nice corner for the kids to play. The summertime patio is our favourite spot. It's a great place for a rest or relaxed hangout. It's probably not the right spot if you're in a rush! It's more of a smell-the-roses kind of stop :) Yummy eats include the ham & cheese croissant, the decadent chocolate cake, and the specialty grilled cheese sandwiches (I love the HarvestFest). Definitely highly recommended!

    Wow. Wow. Wow. Wonderful atmosphere. Delicious, locally sourced organic sandwiches and soups. Great coffees and teas. Highly recommended if you're visiting Armstrong. A great place for lunch or coffee.

    Great small bakery with delicious sandwiches and bakery. Seems to be made with all local ingredients. Coffee was great too.

    The iced mocha is so good. It's inexplicably smooth. Really good baking, too. On Fridays they have…read moredonuts!!

    OVERALL: 7.9/10 (Yelp Converted Score: 4/5). My partner and I were passing through, and wanted to…read morestop for coffee. It was a decent experience - they did forget that I ordered a breakfast sandwich until I politely reminded them about 15 minutes after they gave us our last item (steamed oat espresso latte). Verdict: I'd come back if I lived in the area, or was passing through again, but it's not a place I'd outright go out of my way to get to. 1) VARIETY/SELECTION: 8.5/10. It has a decent selection for being such a small hole-in-the-wall (relatively speaking). 2) FRESHNESS: 8/10. They have the materials to make things fresh, but a lot of the baked goods are technically "pre-baked" (they may have been made on the same day, but they're not "made to order". 3) VALUE FOR MONEY: 7.5/10. Overall not bad, kind of expensive (sandwiches were $10 and $12; lemonade was $4 for a small glass with tons of ice, iced coffee and latte were $6 each, almond croissant was around $5?), but not terrible for a small(ish) town like Vernon (remember, all prices in $CAD for a Canadian business!). 4) SERVICE: 7/10. There were two people working here the entire time I was there; one was constantly making drinks, the other was alternating between helping customers order and making the food. It was a busy morning, but the person who took my order forgot about the breakfast sandwich that I'd ordered until I politely reminded them (after it was already cold, sad days). 5) CONSISTENCY / FIRST IMPRESSION: 8.5/10. I'd definitely come back - and prefer it over the local Starbucks / Timmie's - because local businesses are fantastic if done right (and this place seems to have struck that balance). Parking in front, but not much! I'm happy to see a local coffee shop thriving - tons of folks came in and the place was always having someone order the full time I was there. NOTE: This place is also the same as "juice wall" - there's a "wall" of shelving near the door that's a ton of wine options - you have to get a coffee shop item to order stuff from there, but it seemed like a reasonable price when I was perusing (but not purchasing) the wine. My only regret is not taking a picture of the wall! The seating wasn't bad - there's maybe 5 tables of 2-3 inside, and a patio that lines the outside of the place - so it's not bad by any means.
