I have been here twice now and the monkey bread was the star of the show on my first visit and the…read morereason I came back. Unfortunately it was not available on my second visit so I ordered the cinnamon bun muffin and the cranberry orange donut and both were incredible. The muffin reminded me so much of the monkey bread and everything about it was perfect. The donut was outstanding and that cranberry orange flavor completely blew my mind. I truly hope it becomes a regular item. I also decided to try a slice of pizza since everyone always raves about it. To be honest I went in a little skeptical because when something is overly hyped it usually disappoints me. I was very wrong. I ordered the roni supreme with whipped ricotta hot honey and pepperoni and it absolutely knocked my taste buds down. The dough was light thin and crispy and the combination of hot honey with the whipped ricotta was mind blowing. It felt like opening Pandora's box and now I am wondering how I am ever going to get my summer body back. The service was fantastic and genuinely kind and even though it was busy they kept the line moving at a great pace. I have not yet sat inside because it tends to get crowded and I like my space but the interior is cute. If you can find a quieter time to enjoy your food I would definitely recommend staying.

I ordered the Roni Supreme pizza to go. The pizza was the perfect thickness. The mix of the sweet…read moretomato sauce and spicy pepperoni and hot honey with ricotta was absolute heaven. The staff were patient and kind. The restaurant itself is a bit small but has some seating in case you wish to dine in house. The doughnuts are quite popular, served in the morning and frequently sell out mid day so I will have to return to try the donuts. I would absolutely return for the pizza.

Good idea to have a date night special for food and games: by the time Friday comes around we're usually too lazy to cook because we're exhausted! What better place to unwind, playing board games on the huge tables is most convenient but the smaller tables are more cosy. Nice selection of games too and good advice about what games to play and HOW to play them! I like it that they added some local games / locally designed games, nice touch. Oh yeah and try the floats too.

There's also parking on site which is a plus! My go-to is usually the Unicorn Half & Half (half milkshake, half ice cream), which is topped with cotton candy, nerds, rainbow sour strips. The ice cream used is bubble gum! If you're not interested in their options listed, you can always creat your own! For the piece, you do get a large serving as well. Their paninis are also delicious! I love their Doritos Chicken Panini ($6.99). It is one of my favourites and is something I'd recommend trying.

Panini & Ice cream has been a great addition to Hamilton's dessert scene & I thought I'd update my…read morereview as warmer times are on their way. AMBIANCE: (4/5) The restaurant has expanded since I've been there last. There is much more seating in the back and they added a picture wall that you can use to take IG-worthy photos with your dessert. The lighting is soft but bright which also makes it a great place to hang out The front of the store is getting a little haggard. FOOD: (3/5) The sizes of the icecream scoops here are crazy. I absolutely love how much they give you - matching the price point in terms of quantity. 1. Oreo Icecream Sundae: This sundae was gi-normous and looked soo good - with whip cream, chocolate drizzle, and oreo cookies lining the cup. However, it was a little unsatisfactory. The 'oreo' icecream they used had basically no oreo in the mix. The icecream itself was bland (???). 2. Pralines & Cream: I LOVE pralines & cream. The kiddy scoop I got was so worth it. The icecream was creamy and thick. Exactly like the ones at Purdy's (my absolute favorite) but at a better price. SERVICE: (3/5) The service wasn't SPECTACULAR but was not lacking. The counter stretches around to the convenience store as well, so they service both. The icecream came out 8'ish minutes after we ordered (only 2 people in front of us) - which may be an issue in the summer time as it gets busier. OVERALL: (3.5/5) This is a store you come back at least once a year just because their pics look so good on Instagram & if you don't want to trek uptown to Biggies Icecream.

Even though this is primarily a coffee bar, I am firmly in my matcha era right now, so that's what I went for. It was pretty decent, and I really liked that they use ceremonial grade matcha.

I don't want to rate the place unfairly since I didn't actually try their coffee this time around, but based on the vibe, I would definitely go back to try a latte next time.
