Three StarsHaven’t been here for many years. Came in for lunch and a coffee. The West Coast Eggs Benedict was was good the fruit salad was mainly melon with a few bits of strawberry. The dark roast coffee tasted like a light roast. The atmosphere was pleasant however the owner was busy with other things and not interested in talking. Nobody asked me if I was enjoying my meal. So the food was good the ambiance was quiet. The coffee and staff wasn’t up to giving me what I expected

Delicious food and drinks at a moderate expense. The place looks great, and it has a nice calm feel to it. If your planning to go at lunch, you should reserve a table as it can get very busy at those times, and because there is limited space. Service takes a few minutes to prepare, but is ultimately fast for the good quality food you receive. Very healthy with all kinds of food choices for people with dietary restrictions. Overall delicious food, at a good price, with great service and a nice environment.

This place has the best drip coffee in northern BC. It is an absolute gem of a coffee shop that gets everything right. I go out of my way to stop here and enjoy their lovely java and a cool treat. Staff is always friendly. I noticed the last time I was in there they have a pay it forward wall of cards from customers that have bought for a future someone who may be tight on cash. A lovely idea that I have never seen anywhere else. Comfortable seating and lovely lighting make for a great place to read a book and people watch. Added bonus: across the street there is an electric car recharging station.

The breakfast skillet and sourdough bread is the best I've ever had!

First time eating there, loved the pizza. Staff was friendly and helpful, definitely reccomend, vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, organic, fair trade coffee, and meat for meat lovers. Little bit of everything, cozy little place, nice coffee shop atmosphere. Coffee is fantastic as well.

Had a really delicious chicken pesto panini and a mango milkshake for lunch, both was really good. They have an extensive list of Italian soda flavors and milkshake flavors. Very cozy spot for lunch or coffee.

The operating hours are not traveller friendly, but the coffee was excellent and the gluten free menu options were overwhelming for choice. This will be my go to stop in Burns Lake (if they're open) when I'm travelling through.

Great place. Usually when I work in Burns Lake I have to eat breaky at A&W. If you have the option check them out. Tasty, real food, always deeelicious. Extra cost for coffee refill a bummer but it's good coffee. Also I wish they opened at 730am when I'm in town lol
