The place is great if you don't mind the incline of the hill you have to walk/drive up to enter their business. Been going there for years. Decent accessible seating is available inside but my preferred option is to take it to go almost every single time. The place is normally either packed or nearly empty but their food is always good.

I was happy to see that a place serving hot food opened within walking distance of my place, and…read moreone day I popped down to pickup lunch for my wife and I. They post their soup schedule on their Facebook every week, and we lucked out because my wife has a nostalgic soft-spot for their soup of the day that day, corn chowder. Soups come with a biscuit or roll, and I doubled down on biscuits. The corn chowder was still piping hot after taking everything home and getting set up to eat. The soup was was creamy and smooth, with pops of sweetness and texture from the corn. The biscuits were buttery and lightly flaky, and while the exterior was a bit more firm and roll-like than a typical biscuit, it didn't detract from it. I had also picked up a loaf of whole wheat bread, which was light, airy and moist - great for sandwiches or on its own! On a return visit, it was another batch of soups - the daily special of clam chowder and the alway available, tomato cheddar. The clam chowder was thick and chock full of bits of clam and perfectly bite-size chunks of potato. I went for the roll this time, and it was light, smooth and great for dipping. My wife's tomato cheddar was a great, simple soup. The namesake flavours were front and centre and it had a silky mouthfeel from the added fat of the cheese, but the sauce didn't break and have actual pools of grease. For dessert, I bought a couple of their iced cinnamon rolls. They were light and airy - definitely head and shoulders above the grocery store ones - and a quick run through the microwave softened that butter/cinnamon/sugar mix wonderfully, without completely liquifying the icing. A Slice of Home is a fantastic addition to both the neighbourhood and the town as a whole, bringing thoughtfully made goods at affordable prices.

Located in its quaint space at the south end of Provost, it has a bright colour palette, with school bus yellow leading the chromatic charge to your retinas. Ordering is done at the counter, where you have your choice of a handful each of sweet and savoury waffles, smoothies and salads. On my first time there, my wife and I were grabbing a late lunch, and it being the weekend, I was feeling brunch-y, so I went with their B.E.A.S.T. - Bacon, Egg, Aioli, Spinach and Tomato (and also cheese, but that didn't fit the acronym, I guess). My wife, seeing that they had a gluten-free waffle option (+$2), took the opportunity to get something that she is rarely able to - get a donair. The B.E.A.S.T. was a solid breakfast-ized version of the BLT, with the egg adding some more protein and the lightly sweet and crisp waffle bringing more to the show than your typical bread. Wrapped handily in compostable paper, it was apparent from this and some signs around the waste bins that WBS is making an effort to be as low-impact on the environment as possible. My wife's donair waffle was stuffed with generous layers of Mr. Donair-brand meat, so while the meat itself wasn't all that special, it was cool that the GF waffle allowed my wife to have a donair. As for the waffle itself, it was a bit more crumbly than its full-gluten brethren, but had a nice flavour. On our return visit, we both went with the daily specials - me the breakfast scramble and the bruschetta for my other half. I really enjoyed my breakfast scramble. The mix of lightly sweet ham, layers of richness from the meat, eggs and hollandaise, and pops of heat from the banana peppers made for a delight for my taste buds. Lightly crisp and sweet bits of waffle made sure that not a drop of hollandaise went to waste. The bruschetta waffle was a cool dish. Big flavours of pesto and garlic butter, with some acidic brightness of cherry tomatoes and some heft from the chicken. Topped with melted mozza and feta, this was a definite winner. Waffle Bus Stop is a fun, tasty spot that helps anchor Provost Street and adds a creative angle to the restaurant scene in the county.

You will also find toys, shoes, sleep sacks, strollers, swings - basically all the essential baby gear. The place was spick and span. I would have let my four-year-old use the old five second rule, had be been with us and dropped a cracker on the floor. I was equally thrilled that the space lacked that awful, dank smell that so many secondhand clothing stores can't seem to get rid of. The prices are some of, if not the, best I've seen in a consignment shop. Pricing seemed to be pretty standard per item regardless of brand. Long sleeve shirts for a one-year-old were $2.50 and my sister picked up the sweetest sundress for her babe for only $4.50. A rare occasion, we were kidless, but had we dragged along the hoodlums, there was a fenced in play space that would have kept them occupied while we shopped. Brilliant move on the owner's behalf. Located in the quiet town of Stellarton, I didn't expect it to be busy mid afternoon on a Friday, but the place was bumpin. I noted, the woman working, whom I assume was the owner, seemed to know everyone. A key to success when owning a small business in a small community no doubt. They also sold a few baby items made locally, something I alway like to see. I ended up buying one of those Tupperware ball things that you fit the different shapes into and a reusable bib for a whopping $4.50. I had been planning on giving this place five stars, until I got home and realized the toy I bought didn't work. My dad pointed out it was my own stupidity for not checking before I bought it. Luckily, my dad, named "the fixer" by his grandkids, engineered something together and got the ball thing to open and close again. Although new to me, Bubble Tree has been in business for three years. Wish I'd known about it earlier. I'll definitely be back and recommending to all my mama friends who live in the area or might be passing through.
