I ended up getting a combo that came with 2 pancakes, sausage, and potatoes and butter toast an this was pretty yummy. The pancakes were thing and sweet but not too sweet. I was not a big fan of the sausage but really enjoyed the toast which was nice and buttery and ofc the potatoes. This place is very reasonably priced, and for the price the portion is really big, which is awesome!

Apparently they got bought out by Coffee Time and have become the northern Ontario chain for coffee that rivals Tim Horton's. Good luck with that, I say. The coffee shop is clean, quiet, with effective staff. This one being across the street from the Travelodge I was staying at (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/travelodge-thunder-bay-thunder-bay) made it the place I had to start my day. Not necessarily for me, but for everyone else that would have to deal with me that day. Ordering the usual black coffee, the first sip confirmed my suspicions. This is basically a Coffee Time coffee in a different cup. Tasted pretty darn similar to me. Sadly, I'm not a big fan of Coffee Time coffee, but beggars can't be choosers. The donuts are fine; the sandwiches are made in front of you. It's not a bad place to stop if you're in need of a quick coffee, but I'd not make a special trip. This may just give you enough juice to get to a Starbucks or even better, an independent coffee shop.

The cinnamon bun griller was a cool idea. I would try it again, perhaps they over toasted it because it was crunchy like a cookie sandwich. The eggs, toast, and coffee were great.

We had no problems finding parking on a Thursday late morning. All the food coming out of the kitchen looked amazing and photo worthy.

It's essentially thin crepes that has a soft chewy texture with a great crisp on the outside edges. We added the in-house strawberry compote, which was nice, but I almost preferred the eggy crepey flavour on its own hehe! We also had their Eggs Benedict, which was done right, although their house potato's weren't crispy to my liking.

Staying at the hotel, popped in for a beer and a bite a little bit before seven on a Sunday night…read more The restaurant was relatively quiet with most of the Window seats occupied. We asked for a table near the window, so we could look out and enjoy the view of the bay but it needed to be cleared. The waitress seamed irritated by this and told us to go sit in the lobby and wait until it was clear. A second waitress came to seat us was not as grumpy but still seamed a bit off. We ordered a burger and a salad, basic items. The burger was overcooked, we asked for a salad with mixed green garden lettuce, but it was served with just Romain lettuce, And finally, we found a hair in the salad. They took 20% off the bill but it was still gross. I heard the table behind us behind us complaining about their food as well and they got 20% knocked off their bill for something that went wrong. We were definitely disappointed with the high prices that this restaurant charges and the quality of food we were presented with With so many incredible restaurants within walking distance, being in this high-end neighborhood and associated with the Marriott hotels, this restaurant is way off brand.

We were there for a nice, relaxed meal and we were not rushed to order which was appreciated. We got cocktails to start - Amethyst Mine and Cucumber Basil Smash. I enjoyed the Amethyst Mine but my partner indicated he would not order the Cucumber Basil Smash again. My main course was the Novemburger with salad and my partner's was the rigatoni. The presentation was great; I really liked the dishes! I am not great at describing flavours, so I will just say this - the Novemburger was the BEST burger that I have ever had. It was SO flavourful. The beef patty was delicious. The rigatoni was good, but my partner said he wished he got the Novemburger, too. After our main courses, we got dessert and coffee. Cannot recall what exactly the dessert was called but it was some sort of matcha tart. It was creamy and delicious, but the best part was the pastry. So good!

I have had these items before and loved them. The Fritto Misto had more vegetables and shrimp than calamari and the Brussels sprouts in the dish were tough. The pizza seemed undercooked and the crust was not a thin pizza crust but seemed to be a tortilla. I know that restaurants are facing difficulty in this economy. But if the restaurant cannot maintain its reputation it is time to alter the menu.

For food, I ordered the prosciutto gouda pretzel and tomato spinach roll. If I had to choose my favourite between the two it would be the pretzel - it was very crispy and definitely the best tasting pretzel I've had. If you prefer softer, chewier foods, you may like to tomato spinach roll more. Altogether the total was just over $21 with tax. Very reasonable portions and prices coupled with freshness and great taste - this is probably the best cafe I've been to including ones in Ottawa and Toronto. I'll be coming back if I visit Thunder Bay again!

Food is just the way you like it. If its not on the menu they make it happen anyway... Their BLT is actually filled with bacon, unlike other places where you get a two strip X of it in the sandwich. Their is bacon edge to edge! Omelets are good as well. Pancakes are good! And they stamp a little design on the top of them to add a special touch to your stack. Wish they were open for dinner! It is your typical cafe interior. Like its been there forever which adds to its charm. Its not a big place so getting there earlier is a plus, because it fills up fast. Worth the stop.
