I think I'll have to drop by for lunch next time and actually try something off the lunch menu. Maybe I could have a breakfast bagel for desert :). Ah, the dangers of eating someplace where everything is so tasty!

Our hot lunches consist of Lebanese cuisine, Canadian classics, and various international cuisines. We strive to ensure our food is guaranteed fresh and homemade. A variety of gluten-free and keto options are available for breakfast, lunch, and catering, too. Hobson Lake Cafe is flexible for customer’s requiring allergy-free food and vegetarian/vegan options, too.

My partner and I used to go here regularly to read and work on stuff in the evenings when we lived…read morerelatively nearby. It has all of the usual great SC drinks (best of the coffee chains!) and a great rewards program! We were always able to find a table and they have a good selection of different seating arrangements (long table, 4-person tables, comfy chairs by the fireplace (!!), counter with tall chairs). There is also a small outdoor patio area to sit out during the summer months. Some of my favourite things to order are: - Dark Chocolate Frozen "hot" chocolate - Orange FroCho (it tastes like drinking an orange Creamsicle!) - Blueberry muffin (made with Greek yogurt for greater protein content) - Sumatra coffee - Vanilla bean hot chocolate - Pumpkin Spice Latte (I've tried versions from every coffee shops each year & keep coming back to this as the best) - seasonal maple leaf shortbreads - Chocolate peanut butter oat cake - Harvest Berry tea (This is a wildberry tea made with their apple cider mix & it is PHENOMENAL! The perfect drink for one of those grey or rainy days.) I'm not super into their food or baked goods; the former I haven't tried and the latter I find mostly too sweet for my tastebuds. That and the sometimes limited parking are why this coffee shop doesn't get 5 stars from me. They do have some gluten-free packaged snacks and I think maybe even fresh fruit. As for coffee, they usually have a couple of roasts on the go. My favourite (Sumatra) is rarer in rotation. You can also buy bags of your favourite coffee to make at home, which I somehow didn't realize until a year ago! In addition to that, they have coffee makers, accessories, hot chocolate mixes, tea and apple cider mix for sale. This location is connected to a Needs convenience store and gas station. It can sometimes take awhile to get out of the parking lot if you're trying to turn left onto Suzie Lake Cres., but you can always turn right and essentially pull a u-turn.

This Starbucks is nestled in the obscure part of the Chain Lake/Bayer's Lake area just around the…read morecorner and across from the NSLC head office. It will be better known for it's drive thru one day as it is a much smaller Starbucks with a wonderful drive thru set up. So far most of their business has been people headed towards work and hitting up the drive thru in the early hours as well as people working in the area. Quick and efficient as always. I had the opportunity of sitting inside for a few hours with my husband as we looked over some stuff on the net. Our kitchen is being renovated and it is much easier to get out of the house and away from the stress. I found this location to be quiet and comfortable. my only complaint is that while we were there during sunset hours, the sun blared in on us in the sitting area making it very hard to look at our laptop and sit comfortably without having to block the sun out of your eyes. Will try sitting in different spots next time. I only give it 4 stars as it is a little out of the way for most and nestled in a location for a niche of customers. hopefully after a few visits it will blow me out of the water to keep coming back and give it 5!

The staff are nice and there's plenty of parking. It can get super busy though! Have been there a few times where there was no more seating available. I like to order ahead on their app.

They always mess my order up almost every time I go here somehow. I asked for a strawberry açai…read morelemonade and the woman doesn't even speak so it was getting awkward, and then I just said "could I get it with light ice?" And she said "sure. " and then she said the price which I forget what it was. So it was also my bad but I forgot to say what size I wanted, but she didn't even ask me what size I wanted in the first place! So then she made my drink and when I got it, it didn't have any strawberries on the top, which mind you I never said no strawberry inclusions. It also was a grande. I hate when they do that and just assume you want a grande. So then I went back to my car and I had a sip and it was like they mixed lemonade and one drop of strawberry juice! Like it tasted like just lemonade.

Worse service ever!! I've been a gold card member for 15+ years.... and I just got the worse…read moreservice ever. Kianna - was the preparer of my drink order. It literally took 15 minutes and it wasn't even that busy considering how Starbucks usually is. She grabbed my cup to start the drink, then started stocking the cupboards after going back and forth to the backroom... stopping to chat with coworkers as I waited. People who were in front of me, were long gone after being served by the guy and two females, but Kianna took her time. I asked the guy what's taking so long....he said she's working on it....we both looked and she was stocking and talking not working on my drink. Until I said I want a refund. Then she said hey I'll work on it now. That really should have been a compt drink. Unbelievable. My drink was a slushy refresher .

This is the worst TIm's out there! Not only is it a night mare to get out of at any time of day,…read morethe staff are as rude as they come. My order has never been right coming from this Tim's. Last time I was in there the employees belittle a new trainee right in front of me and 2 other customers. I felt so bad for him I hope he quit. All he asked was where the gift cards were as I was purchasing 2 and someone had moved them off the counter. One snotty little princess turned around and yelled at him because she was "working drive thru" ... there was 4 cars in the drive thru with 6 princesses "working drive thru". 4 of the 6 weren't doing anything but standing around laughing and joking. Horrible!

Today I was in a little rush, asked for 2 bacon & cheese eggs bites and 2 spinach. Got to the window and it was a outrageous priced. Just to find out she gave me 2 orders of each and I couldn't dispute it because I was running a little late. They need to slow down and get orders correct. The woman who serviced me was also very rude and dismissive. To follow up on another comment I seen, they are only good at pumping out double doubles.
