    a cup of coffee on a table
    Julia K.

    We wandered by here the night before and thought we should come back for our morning coffee, and yes so glad we did! Great decor, ambiance with pops of cheery yellow, good food, and flavorful lattes They have a good variety of food options with a Indian touch, nice tea selection, and coffee / espresso drinks too. I had the cardamom latte, and it was delicious! I was pleasantly impressed with the taste of the food. It was a great start to our day of exploring. It would be a nice spot to get some work done with free Wi-Fi and great seating options. I would highly recommend this place, and I would not hesitate to come back!

    Had the roast chicken panini sandwich and salad, it was very good. The sandwich was filling and delicious. The salad was light but flavourful. The cafe has a very laidback vibe and kids friendly. Highly recommend!

    The veggie complete was delicious and so was the chia latte I ll be going back for sure

    5 stars out of 5 because: - open 'til midnight (since May 1st that is; and if you know PEI, that's fairly rare) - friendly staff - homemade backed goods; fresh food - just right decor - comfortable seating - supports local artists (art for sale on wall) & business (have you heard of soap with potato juice as an ingredient?)

    Fine selection of desserts, teas, ice and hot coffees. Quiet and cheeky. Step in, bring a book, a laptop or company then sit or lay back and enjoy! Totally cool atmosphere paired with quick service and hot coffee!

    This place is amazing I love their cold brew. But they seriously under produce and under stock it!! They have a very small menu, coffee is great but they should grow!

    Really comfortable and cozy. Service is excellent. The blueberry pavlova was extraordinary. Coffee isn't bad at all.

    Pretty rough start to the morning, when you go for breakfast and they don't even have coffee ready. We waited 10 minutes for drip coffee... Kinda weird for a coffee shop. Would have liked to say at that point that shit happens; maybe they had an unexpected group of 30 people arrive before us who drank them out of coffee. But we ordered breakfast (the hash & burrito) and they were out of eggs, and out of burritos! What's going on here? Anyway, to their credit, they found eggs quickly and we had our breakfast within 15 minutes. But I can't even tell you how awful that burrito was... There's not one redeeming thing to say about it. Just steer clear. The hash wasn't bad, and according to the cashier it's the best thing on their menu. Not a good sign. But hey! The coffee was excellent! That's what's important, I think! Drip coffee was amazing, Flat White was perfect. So the moral of the story is: come here for the coffee, NOT for breakfast.

    Had a samosa and cofee. It was great and ambience was also good. Green sauce on side was good and it was not too spicy.

    Excellent coffee and a large selection of baked goods. They grill their beans right on premises. Nice spacious patio.

It was so good !! Always good to get a root beer that doesn't have caffeine in it and a nice cold water too. Maple ice cream inside the market. So good!

It's…read moreheartbreaking to know we only get the opportunity to eat this culinary art for a few more days until we have to go home. The menu has some excellent variety with some clever twists on some otherwise familiar sounding dishes. We had the fish and slaw sandwich, fish tacos, and the grilled cheese. They were all absolutely delicious. My 12yr old declared the grilled cheese the best she's ever had. The fish was meaty and perfectly battered. The fish tacos had a zingy sauce and colorful mix of lettuce, black beans, and corn. It's a great stop for families as well. I'd easily drive an hour to eat at this place. They have picnic tables, a kids menu, a bouncy pad jump area, and some goats! We didn't try any of the lobster themed dishes which turned out to be a sad decision. The chef told me they catch their own lobster!! In fairness he only told me after we had eaten. Good excuse to come back. We hope this place is around for years and years to come. It's truly outstanding and worth your time (and money)!!

We sat outside, enjoying the summer air and watching the downtown hum along. The food here leans simple but thoughtful. The Island Hot Cake was fluffy and satisfying, and the Fry Up breakfast (with bacon) hit all the right notes--especially the potatoes. Maybe it's just PEI magic, but even as a side, they stand out. Our lattes and matcha latte were smooth and well-crafted, and the pacing felt unhurried in the best way. Service was friendly without being overbearing, and it's the kind of place where you can linger with your coffee without feeling rushed.

Once inside, you'll find a modern and clean space filled with baked goodies, fresh bread and fabulous coffee. We fought the urge to buy the maple cream whoopie pies. I also was eyeing the tofu lemongrass bowl on the "meal menu". Their breads also looked delicious- I was eyeing the molasses oat bread. We ended up buying a maple cappuccino and a maple latte -and they were sooo good. They also offer a dog friendly patio out front. If you find yourself here for a cruise, this is a five minute walk (or less) from the port. Don't miss out!
