“ OH MY GOD!! Best cafe I have ever been too. I love the corner set up. It's extremely walkable and inviting when walking down the street. It was a gorgeous day today so the big window was open on the side to allow a breeze throughout the entire cafe. Upon entering there was super good music, very crafty decor including donuts and dinosaurs hanging from the ceiling. LOVE! I ordered a regular latte with oat milk and avocado toast. Which happens to be the most delicious avocado toast I have ever had. It has pickled onions, pickles, mixed greens on a crunchy sourdough bread. So, so good!! The seating was ample, even though the place was packed, the staff were so incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was honestly cool as hell. I had a great breakfast here and I am so glad we decided to stop in! ”
“ Went for lunch on the first day of my trip to Halifax after being welcomed by the adorable decor, and had to came back for breakfast as well. The sandwiches were all on delicious bread, and the muesli for breakfast was so flavorful and filled with fresh fruits. Prices were very reasonable as well. Highly recommend! ”
