My family has been coming up to Nova Scotia for years (in fact, I notice that one of the other two…read morereviews currently here for the Chatterbox is my cousin!) and we enjoy stopping in here for lunch at least once during our trip. First, there's the atmosphere: they have free wi-fi, which is rare in the area, and it's charming, with its bookshelves littered with a side variety of stuff, from literary to popular to genre fiction. It's more of a counter-service place than a restaurant, and I think they'd struggle with a very large group. The sandwiches are delicious and come with pita chips, and you can wash it down with some lemonade or a beer. They also have some tasty pastries.

They have a very small - but very tasty menu and the layout/decor is great. They don't serve soft-drinks (pop) but what they do have to drink is a decent selection. The food is always really great and the atmosphere is very relaxing - no matter if you're eating outdoors on the porch or inside surrounded by the Chatterboxes library.

The chai latte was really good (made from scratch chai tea leaves vs pre-made mix), and served in a lovely large ceramic mug that gave me the "stay awhile" vibe. Hubby had a black coffee and a REALLY yummy breakfast sandwich (the toasted bread really made the sandwich), and the ingredients inside were fresh and flavorful. Nice mix of locals working inside and folks stopping by for a quick bite. Loved the interior. Really nice worker greeted us as soon as we came in and explained the seating/service options. We'd go back!

We sat outside, enjoying the summer air and watching the downtown hum along. The food here leans simple but thoughtful. The Island Hot Cake was fluffy and satisfying, and the Fry Up breakfast (with bacon) hit all the right notes--especially the potatoes. Maybe it's just PEI magic, but even as a side, they stand out. Our lattes and matcha latte were smooth and well-crafted, and the pacing felt unhurried in the best way. Service was friendly without being overbearing, and it's the kind of place where you can linger with your coffee without feeling rushed. If you're in Charlottetown and want a reliably good breakfast with a quality cup of coffee, Receiver is worth the stop--especially if you can grab a patio seat.

We were visiting our son and his wife, but they were working during the day. I wish we could have spent more time with them, but it is what it is! At least we got to see them. We had a nap spread out in front of us. I can tell you that this lady's suggestions were excellent! The Cranewood on Main St is a repurposed beautiful 3-floor old house. They've done a fine job of redesigning the interior. The food and coffee we had was good, and it got quite busy in there! You line up for your order / food and to pay - cafeteria style. Sackville is a university town, and I really enjoyed our visit. This coffee shop was terrific! I would definitely go back.

The croissant was perfection with the perfect amount of chocolate to give flavor but not over power. The pecan tart crust was the best I ever had with the pecans in buttery caramel.

Careful not to accidentally drive past! We were greeted immediately upon entering and service remained very friendly and attentive throughout our stay. The food is tasty and portions are extremely generous for the price. We ordered a seafood chowder and the bowl was filled to the brim -- it turned out to be 2 bowls' worth of some of the best chowder on the island! I would highly recommend a stop here on your way in or out of PEI.
