It's not the best, but considering I haven't been able to find one in 4 days, this hit the spot. The location is beautiful, the staff super friendly and their flair for having the right drinks, the right glasses to serve them in and to provide the most relaxed and inviting space - well, this place is a must visit if you like coffee, want a break in a beautiful setting and are looking for a coffee shop that does more than just 'coffee'.

Watching locals dance and enjoying the community vibe is such a fun, memorable experience. Food-wise, the green curry bowl with shrimp was amazing. It was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly comforting. A great community spot with lots of charm!

The ambience is definitely part of the charm--open skied, tree trunk and branches, walls and windows to shelter us from the wind. Treehouse indeed! Our sever was stellar--knowledgeable, funny, and totally on it. Credit to the kitchen, too, for cranking out piping hot food. This place is a well-oiled machine... with a big heart. The food: --Thai curry chicken was the big winner --cheese burger and fries were on point --chicken sandwich was great; fresh salad was wonderful --grilled salmon was overcooked. Bummer. We'll be back for more (but, I'll get a burger instead of overcooked salmon).

This is a decent place on Saltspring with a little less of a floofy Saltspringy feel. I guess…read morethat's up to the individual to decide whether that's something they like or not. Pros: There's great oceanfront seating on the deck, a liquor store attached right to it, and nice staff. Cons: It says "Bistro" on the sign, but you can't actually get any food (WTF?), the server wanted to educate me on what a Bloody Mary is but then brought me back simply a glass with tomato juice and vodka. Yikes! All in all, it seems like an A-OK place to meet some friends and have some drinks. Maybe go a little easier on the whole "false advertising" angle, though.

One is a hip looking coffee shop with vintage records and record players on display, the other a modern, laid back, restaurant. Both wonderful, both delicious. I had the rock fish burger and also tuna tartar. The burger was perfectly battered and the fries were so addictive! Also, the tuna was fresh and wonderfully balanced with citrus and a sweet chermoula. Wow! So tasty! Note, if you are looking for a coffee while chilling out at the restaurant, you need to go order it and bring it over yourself. It's weird, but you're on Salt Spring so just go with it

A barber shop, where you can have a coffee or a beer. They serve alcohol, food and hot coffee/tea drinks. The owners are super hip, my goodness, they are so cool.

If you are interested in handmade goods and unique finds, this is a must visit!

A lot of arts and crafts such as carving, leather, and clothing. A really lovely felt flower maker. I've been to many many markets and this was good but didn't blow me away. Beautiful setting obviously and the vendors were chatty and informative.
