Incredibly scenic setting. Just look at the pictures. It's an iconic fishing harbour with one restaurant. Not touristy at all. All unstained wood. The cafe itself is quintessential Newfoundland simplicity. A must stop on the Irish Loop. Less than 20 minutes from St. John's...if you don't get lost. Most folks here come from town.

Wandered to this little cafe on recommendation of a friend, and we weren't disappointed! Beautiful…read moreview of the harbour, quiet location, quaint decor... but above all, proper coffees! International friends, the coffee is rich, aromatic, but not overly bitter or acidic. Perfect mix to settle in either indoors or at one of a few tables outside, and enjoy a weekend afternoon. Only complaint is that it's only open weekends but a little bird has told me that this might be changing come May 2017. Fingers crossed!

Parking was tight but we squeezed in. I ordered the soup of the day and a fish cake. Both were…read morefresh and delicious. Both had a homemade taste and texture to them. I really liked the fish cake but one is never enough. It was mostly fish rather than the other stuff. I recommend both the soup and especially the fish cakes ($4.49 each in 2023). There is free WiFi so you can browse through your phone rather than talking to your guests if so desired. It's quite large inside so even if the parking lot is full there probably a table waiting for you. Washrooms were large and clean. The service was genuine and pleasant. We ordered dessert which we rarely do but the descriptions were enticing. I felt compelled to taste at least one of them. I really can't think of any negatives. Even the prices were quite reasonable. Well they were a bit high for the dessert but that's to discourage excessive eating. . If you are reading this you've probably already decided to eat here so enjoy.

When you ask people in St. John's these days where the best fish and chips is they all say it's…read morethis place. Except many cannot remember the name, because they haven't been there long perhaps. Or maybe they've changed names? Or maybe they've just got one of those forgettable/confusable names and everyone just expects that you know what place they are talking about when they say : "The place out by the Ferry, right off the side of the road, oh darn, wassits name? Crazy Horses??? Wild Stallion?.... aw shaggit, just go there - you'll love it!!!" Such was the case with us when we visited. Google searches and local business searches were useless. Phonecalls by brother-in-law who called his family, also useless. So we went. We came. We saw. We conquered a tonne of delicious food. Wild Horses couldn't drag me away from this plate of fish, chips, dressing, gravy and peas. http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/j6fgQJ2g08Om8Y03d7se6A?select=QOxehuw03qKvYMOw33neSQ Nothing like it.

We liked the outdoor seating so I thought it would be a great spot for a morning breakfast. The serving staff was very friendly and kind. We ordered two lattes and three breakfast sandwiches and we're a bit sticker shocked when the total came to $55. The breakfast sandwiches were ok but pretty greasy but the lattes were good. Overall a nice spot but the value for what you get wasn't great.

The Battery Cafe seems to be sort of a landmark in St John's. It's right at the corner where people…read morewho are driving to Signal Hill must pass by. We walked to both places so driving and parking was not a problem. Interestingly there were a lot of classic vehicles going by. You can order beer, cocktails, soup, sandwiches and even coffee. We sat outside at the deck. It was really nice to sit and watch the people, cars and motorcycles pass by. The sandwiches ar interesting and not oversized or over priced. There is secure WiFi although it seemed to have difficulty reaching the deck. If you walked to Signal Hill you should stop at the Battery Cafe because you'll walk right past it and you deserve it. The Newfoundland sundae with jam and ice cream is worth ordering on a warm day.

We arrived in St. John's, Newfoundland early this afternoon. This is our second visit, having been…read morehere two years ago as part of our Iceland cruise, so I was already somewhat familiar with the area. After arriving, I ventured off the ship on my own and made my way to Water Street for a little shopping. While exploring the area, I came across this charming coffee shop. Esther and Jomana were working behind the counter today, and both were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and warm. I ordered a hot mocha latte, a Portuguese tart, and a Nutella strawberry brioche, all of which were homemade. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The mocha latte was rich and comforting, while the pastries were the perfect sweet treats to enjoy during an afternoon of exploring the city. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I ordered and was very happy with my choices. Combined with the excellent service from Esther and Jomana, it made for a wonderful stop during my afternoon in St. John's. I would gladly return the next time I am in town and highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone looking for delicious homemade pastries, excellent coffee, and genuine Newfoundland hospitality.
