    A wonderful and too often overlooked Moncton cafe. The staff is extremely kind, friendly, and familiar. From the moment I walked in I felt welcomed. The latte was huge and I loved my BLT. They checked in on me regularly and I enjoyed my visit.

    Great breakfast sandwiches & friendly service! What a great place for a good coffee and a tasty, hot, freshly-made breakfast sandwich with just the right amount of MAYO to add flavour and moistness. :) Yum! It was also super cozy and welcoming, with friendly service. Thank you!

    One of my all time favourite cafés, the staff are wonderful, kind and very friendly. The atmosphere is very calming and a big boost for creativity. I've visited enough that they know exactly what I'm going to order haha. I always get a matcha latte and a grilled cheese and without fail, is amazing every time. 💚 I love grilled cheese's and I can never make one as good as they do!!!

    First time visiting. Not sure if they were short staffed, but there was only 1 woman working. The lady that had been waiting to order, when I arrived, left in a huff without ordering. I get the impression she had been waiting a while as the only worker was spending all her time making 2 paninis. Even after the woman left, I still had to wait another 5+ minutes for her to complete the paninis. She made no attempt to multi-task. Moving on, I ordered a mocha. I was extremely disappointed. Not only did it take a really long time for her to make, it was not done well at all and was warm at best. Barely any chocolate syrup made for an extremely flavourless mocha. The tiny bit of syrup that was used was stuck to the bottom of the cup. Even when I poured it into my own mug, to mix the syrup, it was still bland and tasted like watered down milk and coffee. Now my warm mocha went to room temperature (because I had to pour it and mix it). I won’t be returning. Back to Starbucks I guess 😢 Note: if you’re driving here, good luck finding a place to park. Better to go elsewhere if you have a vehicle and it’s busy downtown.

    Solid quality paninis! Fresh, made to order, had some fun cold drink options to the enjoy at their patio! Brie apple walnut panini was incredible!

    Really great cafe with super friendly staff! I have tried a variety of items on their menu and my favorites' so far are the cognito club and quesadillas. They are both reasonably priced and fulfilling. Their lemon iced tea and raspberry iced tea are also amazing for a hot day. Their coffee is also quite good and able to be customized into how you like it. The real strong point of this cafe is its staff, who are always so welcoming, helpful and remember their customers! Absolutely recommend this place to anyone and it is the first place I bring any guests of mine.

    Really good coffee, great food and friendly service! We warmed up with a delicious cup of soup on a rainy day. There was enough space for a stroller and our baby had a good time too.

    Had a lovely experience when I stopped in for a quick lunch. I had a delicious apple and brie panini and the staff were very friendly.

    Excellent coffee, great gluten free bread. Very friendly and professional staff. My egg, cheese and bacon sandwich was great.

    Hidden gem! Really enjoyed our lunch here, sandwiches were great ! Loved how customizable they were, the barista went through toppings, cheeses and sauces with me while ordering so that my lunch was just perfect. The special of the week ( herb mushroom panini ?) was SO tasty!

    Nice cafe with a very friendly barista. Outside seating was nice even though we sat inside. Best Americano I’ve ever had; whatever bean the barista used for the espresso was smooth and not overly roasted. Would definitely go again if we’re in Moncton.

    My boyfriend and I just had a lovely date here and loved the entire experience. Our barista, Ashley, warmly greeted us and was so incredibly friendly and kind, and made sure we were satisfied every step of the way. The iced lattes had fun flavour options and the food was great! We also enjoyed the lofi-style music.
