It was a bright and sunny August afternoon and we had finished perusing the butterfly garden up the…read morehill. We strolled down through the beautiful gardens to the restaurant perched on the riverbanks. The restaurant does not optimize for volume or turnover and we had a 45 minute wait. We enjoyed the adjoining shop and their selection of jams and spread. The wait was worth it! The room is a bright large room overlooking the river. Handmade quilts hang from the ceiling. We started with nachos, that had the right blend of cheese and toppings. Unfortunately there were no side plates brought, causing us to eat like animals from a common trough. A slight mishap with a spilled glass of water interrupted our otherwise pleasant appetizer. The server's attention was less than prompt causing us to get extra napkins from directly behind the counter. Still, we soldiered on and prepared for the main feast. The seafood chowder was one of the better ones all trip. Fresh and flavourful pieces in a cream broth, served with a fresh side biscuit. The real opportunity is to highlight the delicious jams and spreads from the shop which would add some much needed flavour to the biscuits. Other meals included kids pasta, kids jam sandwich, a club sandwich, fish cakes and a Caesar salad. All were promptly devoured. A great location with fresh food and pleasant service. Worth the wait!

Great staff and friendly service. 3 of us had the eggs Benny and one had the egg veggie dish. All served luke warm at best. Mentioned it to the server. She said she'd let the kitchen know. Hmmm.

We will go back to our favourite downtown places where the food is served hot.

PEI is not flush with bakeries nor do people flock to the island thinking about baked goods…read more However, after you polish off a dozen oysters and a lobster it may be nice to wash it down with a freshly baked pie or a cookie. On that note the Old Village Bakery can certainly deliver. Everything is wonderfully home made and very tasty. Now, I must say that if you are on the other side of the island, I'm not sure that I woudl tell you to drive all the way here just for the baked goods. However, if you are in the general area you it is definitely worth a stop!

Stopped by to grab brunch while I was in downtown Charlottetown for a musical since this place had…read moregood reviews and I'd never had a savoury french toast before. The mochaccino and savoury french toast were very high quality (came out to around $27ish for both after tip). The caramelized onions and cheese on the french toast alongside the maple syrup made for a very good sweet and savoury flavour kick -- if you don't eat much, you could definitely share since I had trouble finishing it! The mochaccino was also not too sweet and had a good balance between coffee and chocolate, I could see why it was so busy on a Sunday morning so come early if you can :) There's a variety of seating (outdoor and by the fireplace as well) and the ambiance was lively.

This was a planned stop for me while in Charlottetown (I was on a trail of Canadian coffee!) and I'm glad I made it. On my first of two visits, there seemed to be a lot of cruise ship passengers, just relaxing from traipsing through Charlottetown, a really fun place to spend time. On an early spring day, the cafe mocha was welcome and the sunny seats outside were clean and comfortable. Second visit a week later, the same delicious drinks, sandwiches, breakfast plates, acai bowls and a short kids menu from which I ordered a "baby bun". Ham, cheese, sourdough? Wasted on kids, it was yum! It's rustic and welcoming, the customer service was pretty good considering all the tourists alongside me, no doubt taxing the baristas' patience! If you find yourself in Charlottetown, make it a stop to relax and recharge with a drink and a snack!
