It was definitely not the typical cafe salad. Especially not with the balsamic reduction dressing. It was nice and will help to offset all of the calories I took in yesterday. Although I chased it down with a blueberry scone which was also quite nice. My wife, meanwhile, ordered the lemon cheesecake. It was very good. I had a few bites of it so that she wouldn't have to worry about the calories. There is parking for two cars out front and I'm sure there's a lot of street parking available too. The WiFi is free, strong and password protected. This is a very casual dining experience but one that I can recommend if you passing through. The cafe was quite busy with locals coming in for take-out.

This place is definitely the small town diner ambiance and you could tell most people knew one another. We came right at lunch and it was busy but we still only waited 5-10 min for a table. We were served right away and the server was patient with us when we changed our minds a bit choice wise. We had the special which was a chicken wrap and a turkey wrap both with soup. The food came out quickly, was fresh and the soup very flavorful! Our waters were kept full and the server was so sweet to our little girl and even gave her a special cookie treat. We had hoped to try the famous "moose farts" but they didn't have any that day sadly. So we "settled" for the chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies that will remain a staple in our minds as one of the top cookies ever! Great stop for lunch for sure!

Of course they had run out of some items by then, but that's ok - we figured ourselves out. There's a bakery store in the front; the restaurant is in the back. Lots of seating. It gets loud in there! But worth it.

When looking for a locally-made breakfast, the Bread Box popped up on my radar (re. Google)…read more Conveniently located near the 330, I figured it would be our best option before heading up to Twillingate for the day. The breakfast and lunch options are prominently displayed on the menu by the counter, but the top item drew both my attention and hunger - the touton breakfast sandwich. Coming with the standard egg, bacon and cheese in a split touton. There's a "mega" version that comes with another touton stacked into/onto the regular version, with an added sausage patty, but I stuck to the base version. We grabbed our coffees (serve yourself from carafes) and sat down to wait for my food. My wife snagged a piece of carrot cake and it was top notch - wonderfully light, fluffy and moist and the delicious cream cheese icing, was, uh, the icing on the cake. Sorry, I had to! It wasn't long before my food was before me. The touton got the sandwich press treatment, with the griddle's indentations readily apparent in the touton. The exterior was lightly crisp from this, and the dough was pleasantly chewy. The bacon was good and crisp , and the fried egg and cheese slice combined for some breakfasty goodness. The home fries were not as expected, as they seemed to be from-frozen french fries that came with an herbal seasoning. But hey, it worked, and they were good enough for my wife to steal a bunch of them! To our deep regret, we won't yet be home for a few days, so getting some of the very tempting breads or sweets did not seem prudent, but I hope that GBB knows that we really, REALLY wanted to. The Bread Box's inglorious strip mall location belies what an asset they are to the town, but judging from the mid-morning crowd there, Gander already knows.

The Chef's Board of seafood was quite good, though the "roasted vegetable of the day" was barely warm. Partridgeberry chicken was fair, with the same veggie issues as the seafood dish. The restaurant does talk about a wine list. The by-the-glass selections are all traditional offerings, as are the by-the-bottle wines. I believe there were seven reds and six whites on each side of the wine list. Prices top out at 50/bottle so. Service was pretty good, and the restaurant itself is comfortably quirky.

It certainly wasn't quiet but we had no difficulty having a conversation. As we finished off there were even more people waiting to get in. There are big screen TV's that featured a football game. I ordered the Cod Tacos with a side salad for $15.99. They were quite filling even though they're probably one of the lowest cost items on the menu. There is lots of parking and it's easy to find as its right on the TransCanada Highway. If you don't mind waiting for a table you'll probably enjoy a meal here. It's pretty much a chicken place (with a few exceptions such as my cod tacos) and if your okay with that then you'll find something to satisfy your hunger at Jungle Jim's.

First of all, my garden salad was well prepared with a variety of fresh vegetables and a three cheese blend that made it very tasty. Let me tell you about the wings - these things were awesome.

I'd tried to make plans with a dear friend of mine but our schedules seemed to be in conflict. Then while travelling the province enroute to The Change Islands, we decide we'd not had enough Mary Brown's since we'd been on the island, and therefore it was the perfect destination for lunch. Who should we run into in the Gander Mary Browns? My friend from St. John's entire fam damily! Bumped into my friend's sister in the hallway by the bathroom. Screamed so loud when we saw each other that people in the restaurant thought I was being murdered. I was so excited to see her I couldn't even remember her name!!! And guess where they are headed? The same tiny community we were..... A twist of fate that could only be experienced by Newfoundlanders. (It's a small world after all.....) Seemed like fate brought us here. That and hunger. Fueled up to continue our journey with a Big Mary meal complete with their famous seasoned wedge fries and salads. The kiddlywinks ate the wedgie poutine - many thumbs up. On our return through the area a week later we stopped in again. No chance encounters on that day - just great chicken, wedgie poutine and salads, and fast service.
