I made a stop in Peterborough on my way home from Montreal a few weeks ago. I had dinner with a…read moredear friend at The Food Forrest. We like to have dessert and chat some more somewhere else. It is becoming a ritual. She suggested going to Silver Bean Cafe, which is next to Millenium Park. I was game. She said either we could walk over there or drive. I went with the latter, as it was a hot day. I drove us in my rental car over to the cafe. Parking is limited steps away from the cafe. I backed into a spot and we walked over. Thankfully, it wasn't all that busy on a Thursday evening. The way ordering goes is that you go into the cafe to place your order. You then sit outside on the patio with an animal marker and your order come to you. Yay! My friend got a vegan chocolate walnut cookie and an iced coffee. I got a large strawberry lemonade. I saw the person at the counter give a penguin marker to place on his table. I would have loved that one! Instead, we got a dinosaur marker, which made both of us smile. We frankly had way too much fun playing with it on the patio while we waited for our order. A nice man came over several minutes later with our order. The vegan chocolate walnut cookie was massive! I got to have some of it. It was delicious and chocolaty. I am pleased that there are vegan options at this cafe. My large strawberry lemonade was gigantic. It tasted so good. It wasn't insanely sweet. It was perfect, with the sweet strawberry taste meshing nicely with the tart lemon. I loved it. The patio is lovely. We spent a good couple of hours chatting away. You get a lovely view of the Otonabee River in the heart of downtown Peterborough. It's beautiful and the breeze was much needed! I would come back here for more desserts and sips. There was also an ice cream stand. Perhaps I will give it a try the next time I am here. (329)

Cottage Cravings only recently came to Bala after a fire at their original Gravenhurst location…read more last year left them looking for a new space. But I'm so glad they landed in our tiny, sleepy town: CC is about as close as it gets to a one-stop shop here. There aren't a lot of places where you can grab a coffee and sandwich, pick up cheese and charcuterie to take home, or grab wall art or dish towels for the cottage. I appreciate that the products here are so thoughtfully selected as well. Cottage decor can teeter on kitschy, but the selection at CC -- technicolor enameled outdoor dining sets, lake-themed hooked rugs, craftsman birdhouses -- is tasteful as well as fun. Popsicle makers and painted martini glasses give ideas. Food from local vendors means you don't have to wait for next week's farmers market to pick up those jams or condiments. And a bounty of healthful dining options from veggie paninis to fresh soups make a quick, delicious lunch. CC definitely makes a great addition to our little hamlet.

The two ladies are knowledgeable and can tell you what is vegan what is not. Had Coconut and Lentil with Vegetables Soup with Toast and a Spicy Rice and Veggie Wrap with the same soup. Saw a morning glory muffin which was Vegan and gluten free and somehow I heard it calling me. The muffin was delicious. With greens, carrots and coconut was amazing. The best part it had very little sugar. Only if I had it warmed. The soup and wrap came quickly after. The soup had almost entire lentils which we assumed would be under cooked. We were wrong. The lentils cooked to perfection. The coconut milk creamy. A bit under seasoned for the Mrs, but I didn't mind. I did want some spice though. Added some black pepper but didn't do anything. The wrap with lots of salad greens and rice. Carrots and veggies. The rice and tortilla was warm. The service was good as well. The place has a small area for buying some nut milk and other stuff. There is also a shelf full of books for customers sit and enjoy.

I am GF, so have not tried the sandwiches, but they sound amazing. Salads are displayed in a small covered counter so you can peruse your selections. Order one or a plate of two or three. They are all great. They have just added an adjacent space with a coffee shop/library feel to it to essentially triple the "eat-in" area. Not an easy location to find parking, especially at lunch, but well worth the hassle.

We got a mocha, latte, pistachio croissant and chocolate pistachio croissant. The cafe had several wonderful pastry options. The interior was beautiful and the chairs made it feel like you were transported to Europe. Two drinks and pastries ended up being $25 so a little on the pricier side but normal for Toronto. The only thing I didn't love was the fact that my latte was not hot at all and I was disappointed there wasn't latte art on either drinks. Other than that this place will definitely be worth revisiting

When we walked in we were amazed by the beautiful decor - like a old-fashioned library with cherry blossoms everywhere. We ordered the following to try: - Strawberry Matcha: This was a very steep price but you will quickly realize why it's worth it. It's high grade ceremonial matcha on a layer of strawberry milk and topped with strawberry cream foam. A very large glass at that - an amazing drink! 10/10 - Spanish Latte: I got the 16 oz version which is a huge glass! Cute latte art and the coffee was very strong. 9/10 - Capri Pesto Toast: Yum. Mozzarella, tomatoes, pesto, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. All the toasts are cut in half which makes it easy to share which I thought was a nice touch. 9/10 - Pear Brulee Toast: Delicious and I think I'm going to try a version of this at home. Sliced pear with torched sugar toppings, on brie cheese. An amazing pairing of fruit with cheese. Loved this so much. I was debating this vs the honey comb brie toast and I think I made the right decision to choose this. 10/10 Service overall is slow - be warned (they have a sign). I'd put this at 5 star review otherwise; while there was indeed a lot of care put into all the drinks and food I've found they were easily distracted too. Otherwise this is a great cafe that really takes pride in their drinks and food! I would love to come back to try their other pastries next time.

We had a…read morelovely glass of bubbly each (since it was our anniversary!) and another glass of wine with our charcuterie and cheese plate. We opted for two cheeses and two meats ($17). You can choose from a selection of each. We went with a mild Quebec bleu, soft French cheese, duck prosciutto, and cured sausage. They were served with plenty of baguette, gerkins, olives, honey, mustards, and chutney along with apple slices. The chef served the plate and explained each item. It was a terrific, relaxed way to enjoy everything. The wine menu is very carefully selected and are available by the carafe, glass, or small glass. While some of the wine prices may be higher than typical house wines, it is a fantastic way to try a wine without having to buy an entire bottle. Some of the wines would be out of our household budget so it was a treat to be able to try just a glass. There are special housemade cocktails, beer, port, and more tiny plate options. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff was terrific. This is a perfect place to stop when you want a light bite but really thoughtfully selected food.
