Thank you so much!

There was a big table perfectly sized for our large group where we were able to enjoy our donuts and coffees. The place was comfy and cozy and I loved all the plants. The one employee who was there was very kind and prepared our drinks quickly despite being the only one in. We all enjoyed! Just because I noticed some of these reviewes are quite old, I would add that they do take credit cards here (they are NOT cash-only) and they certainly do have espresso. It was a little tricky to find due to signage, but we're glad we did!

It feels welcoming right away and has that kind of intimate neighborhood vibe that makes you want to stay a little longer. I got the pork belly and brie benny and really loved it. The pork belly was rich without being heavy and the brie added that creamy touch without being too much. The whole dish was super flavorful without tipping into greasy. It looked like a lot at first, but it was so well balanced that I ended up finishing the whole plate and even surprised myself a little. Also, shoutout to the service because everyone was so friendly and quick. Definitely one of those spots that is worth showing up early for.

If you like cute little restaurants, have a sweet tooth, love gelato or have any dairy free friends this is the place for you. When you approach the restaurant you will notice all of the beautiful lights and you might think, "Wow! I want to check that out!" Then to my surprise, this amazing place I wanted to see was exactly where we were going. The ambiance is really cute and just like its out of a movie. The patio is great during the warm months and the interior is so cute with so much to look at to stimulate your sight. Inside the service is fantastic and they have a bunch of dairy free gelato flavours including a few dairy free chocolates. I ordered a small fairy free chocolate gelato with a dairy free chocolate mint chocolate on top. This was one of the best gelatos I have had all summer. My boyfriend ordered a whit chocolate raspberry gelato with a white chocolate on top (his wasn't dairy free) but it was heavenly. This is such a cute dessert shop, I highly recommend you make it a stop going to or heading back from the Niagara region.
