A quick search of cafes in Belleville Ontario brought up this place - a combination bicycle repair shop and cafe. Despite the split focus, the baristas know what they are doing and the coffee is on point. I had a cortado, which was strong but not bitter and the milk was just at the right temperature. The place uses coffee from Pilot Coffee Roasters, one of the better cafe collectives out there. Only strike was the price at $4.50. That's more than Toronto prices. But I paid. And it was good.

The nice man with the coffee truck "Keep It Simple", churns out the best Sumatran coffee ever. Has different coffee beans, perfectly roasted, available for sale. The fruit and vegetables are great, especially the local garlic, rhubarb, tomatoes and scallions. There is a cheese vendor who has incredible locally made goat cheeses, we tried and purchased one with caraway seeds. There is a phenomenal jewelry stand owned by a Tibetan couple, lots of lovely pieces from Nepal. Cute market, always enjoy coming here. It's a gem!

There were lots of great vendors there - hand made items, farmers, coffee truck, food items, plants. The coffee truck rocks - great coffee. Found a teenaged artist selling some cards for quite a reasonable price - as well as a hippie-type dude selling some interesting herbs. (No, not that kind of herb.) Picked up a great Orange Mint plant with an amazing smell.

This place did not disappoint. Our order consisted of a tomato soup which was smooth and balanced (not too sweet or too acidic), a peameal N brie sandwich which had maple sauted apples - it was served over a French toast bread which in itself was super delicious, the bacon in the toast was crunchy and savoury, A vegetable quiche which was cheesy and wholesome because of the vegetables A chocolate dessert which was rich and crunchy. I will highly recommend this place if you are around Belleville.

My croque monsieur wasn't quite traditional, lacking the top layer of cheese, but it was tasty nonetheless! Generously filled with ham and cheese, and the bread was good as well.

I give it 5 stars here because of the service. The staff was very patient with me as I had a large order. Also, they have high chairs for my toddler which is a plus.

Belleville is not a big town, and there aren't many places to go for a snack at 9 pm. So I have…read moreended up here a few times. But no more. Every time, they are out of something or everything. On this occasion, they once again had no soup, only a very few donuts, none of which I liked (empty shelves), and I could not even get a sandwich because there were "no more buns". My understanding is that all Tim Horton's are open 24 hours. So what possible excuse could they have for running out of food at 9 pm? Why aren't there donuts, buns to make a sandwich with, at least one soup? This "We don't have any apple fritters left", we have no soup, we have no sandwiches, etc. etc. has happened once too often. I left with nothing, hungry and annoyed. Something wrong when a restaurant that is open 24 hours can't be bothered to make donuts or soup or keep buns on hand to make a sandwich by the early evening.

Instead of lobster, the dish was made with imitation crab. The waitress denied it. As an avid lobster enjoyer, this was straight up imitation crab. I am not sure why they are trying to cover it up by denying the use to paying customers. If it says lobster and is an $11 soup, I expect chunks of real lobster. The soup contained stringy unchewable pieces of stewed imitation crab. Would not recommend this place, untruthful about their ingredients.

From the moment we walked in the staff was attentive and kind.We dined late so we were impressed that we never felt rushed. We started with cocktails : Mule and a glass of Malbec- both were great!

The sauces we could have drank they were so flavorful and complimented the chicken perfectly. Main course - My husband got the burger & fries. Was fantastic! I got the local club and that was a very fresh clean tasting sandwich . But can we talk about the fries!! We love crunchy fries and these are the best we've had! Portions are generous!

Wow, colossal failure. We arrived at 5:15pm and got seated, hearing from the server that 6 tables…read morearrived just before us (should've taken that as a warning). The server who seated us said she would not be serving us but our server would be along shortly. While we waited for our server, the first server seated another couple and immediately took their drink and appetizer order. After 10-15 minutes our 'server' finally arrived. By then we had pored over the beer menu and selected a couple options. She flippantly told us 'nope, not available' to the first three we chose. We finally picked a beer, and ordered our appetizers and mains. About 20 minutes later, 2 tables that arrived well after we did, started getting their apps and mains. After being in the restaurant for 45 minutes with no food in sight, we got up, paid for our beers (which she then said we didn't need to pay for, because she FORGOT TO HIT SEND ON OUR ORDER). Completely unprofessional and our server was robotic and flippant. Steer clear! The place is clearly understaffed and lacks any sort of management presence.

It looks like something out of a movie all decked out and decorated for Fall. The innkeepers, Suzette and Rogers were welcoming, warm and very friendly. I can't remember the name of the room I stayed in but I loved it. The mattress was firm just the way I liked it and the bathroom (which I shared with another guest) was spotless. The fluffy robe and the cold water bottles and hot coffee were greatly appreciated and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. It was more like a brunch than breakfast.

Why promote certain items if YOU NEVER HAVE THEM? The last time I had breakfast there in the wee hours of the morning, the drive thru service was horrible (understandably I am aware there are only two of them working this early) however, when I did get the food, I couldn't even eat it because the english muffin I was given had to have been like 4 days old, it was so gross. It seems as though this Tim Horton's has a different health policy on how long they are allowed to keep food for (how can that be?). I am done with this Tim Horton's on Sidney Street, I don't even have that high of standards, usually I'll just settle for what I get, but this place is ridiculous. Heck, I JUST made a Yelp account so I could finally write a review with how pitiful this particular Tim Horton's is.
