There's also a very sweet deck on which to hang out and look at the boats and Alert Bay hilltops. Made my day. Also, the listing has a typo. This place spells its name with a "Z,"or as they say in Canada, "Zed."

The dinner was a special night for us (the three of us met 33 years ago). The fresh seafood was absolutely perfect, and we all had a different dish. We had Chanelle the second visit too, so she is influencing our great experience--she is smart, funny, and ON IT! Highly recommend.

There are a lot of baristas though so service is pretty quick. There are tables and chairs on the inside of the café to eat, and a few benches outside. The art and merchandise stores are fun to browse through. Prices aren't too bad. Really great for finding souvenirs.

They have breakfast and lunch choices. I had the yogurt with fruit and homemade granola which came with some honey on it. The granola tasted good and I enjoyed the dish. One of us had the breakfast bagel and enjoyed it. One had the pancakes that are like crepes. One had the black bean burrito. They offer coffee drinks, tea, hot chocolate and smoothies for drink options. They have a gallery there but it wasn't open. They had some t-shirts, mugs, water bottles and a few other items for sale at the stand where you order your food. They call out your name when your order is ready. Food is okay and setting is fun.

Next we ordered entrees. My friend ordered the chicken parmesan a favorite dish for her in general. I order a Ruben which is on of my favorite sandwiches. When the food came out the breading on the chicken parmesan was way over done just like the cheese sticks. The Ruben was cooked properly but instead of Thousand Island dressing the cook put mustard on it. What?!? My friend had to pick the breading off to eat her chicken and I didn't feel like rolling the dice again to see what came out of the kitchen so I ate my Ruben. All around disappointing.
