Reading the other reviews, I see I'm not alone in stopping here en route to Penticton (it's a good mid-point for a break). There's a small parking strip on the side of the building. I love supporting smaller shops and cafes, and this particular one is indigenous-owned so it seems extra special! Love the motto, too: "Don't panic..We have bannock!". Cute! The cafe is small but clean, with Indigenous artwork on the walls. Of course we ordered bannock! I ordered a maple one, and my kid ordered a berry one (might've been the Saskatoon berry, I forget). I'll be honest, they were absolutely delicious, and fresh, and fluffy and sweet and glazed, but mine absolutely did NOT have much of a maple taste - like, AT ALL. It was like the glaze on a Krispy Kreme glazed donut. Delicious, yes, and sugary, but not maple-y. My kid's berry one was very subtle in its berry flavor. Again, excellent, but not knock-out berry-y. To me, these treats were similar to donuts without the holes. More like fluffy fritters. Delicious, but not as unique as I thought they'd be. As for the coffees....my maple latte, again, sadly, did not taste at ALL maple-y. But it was an excellent coffee: very smooth and flavorful. You could tell the beans were excellent. There just was no maple taste. But my kid had a berry latte (again, I forget what kind), but this drink was EXCELLENT and it totally DID have a distinct berry flavor to it, and it was wonderful! (We both tried both bannocks and both lattes, and we both agreed on this review). We didn't try the sandwiches but they looked quite good. They also had some cute Kekuli Cafe merch for sale.

The sweetness from the bourbon sauce really shone through and I was happy with the portions (not overly filling). Our server (Shane I think) came by regularly to top up drinks and checked in on us.

It was a great experience to have pizza straight from the oven and dine in an outdoor, picnic-style setting. The establishment beside the Yaki Jones's Puzza is a heritage home, and a visitor center that's run by the city, which provides a free picnic area for visitors. They even serve free lemonades for the kids. I think this place is a must try, when you're in Merritt.

We chose this place because of the patio and we had just been hiking with our dogs…read more I chose the classic Mike burger with onion rings. My husband had a regular burger. And here is the problem. My burger was a previously frozen oblong shaped pressed meat substitute. It was grey inside. Weird texture and taste. My husbands burger was fresh and looked and tasted like real meat. 2 stars are for our server, her integrity and honesty was nice. Also for the patio allowing our dogs. When I went in and ask about if my burger was previously frozen she said she would check. She came out to the patio and told us it was. She took the meal off the bill. Now for the restaurant management, you are a steak house??? Right! Do NOT serve frozen pressed meat, it's disgusting! I would assume no one has called you out on this? But come on, get your act together! We won't be back ever!
