The service was great. The crobster roll was good— but felt like it was missing something. The braised onion soup was tasty. Burger was good. Wouldn’t recommend the clam chowder tbh.

Went in here with my dad, we each got the burger, both agreed it was good!! Generous serving with two patties & the beef was slightly pink in the middle, not too well-done, which was really nice. The fries were very tasty, well-seasoned and definitely worth the add-on. The place is a bit trendy but in a charming way, not so much that it feels austere, and our waitress was lovely.

Two of us shared a crobster roll and the risotto with scallops and it was incredible! Might give the slight edge to the crobster roll, but my wife chooses the risotto... Just a sign that Everything on menu is worth ordering.Server was very attentive but not overbearing. Parking was difficult for us, we were about 5 blocks away.

Food was fresh and delicious, albeit a bit pricey. Definitely worth a trip on a splurge day. Recommend reserving a table in as much advance as you can as you usually can't get one for the day of / walk-in, in my experience. They also don't open until 5pm for dinner so be mindful of the weather because you won't be getting in sooner.

Lovely little place to grab a quick bite. The menu has a wide variety of options from salads to burgers to mains. I had lunch there and enjoyed the roasted asparagus salad. Can’t go wrong with halloumi! Also, the menu is well marked for gluten free/friendly options, which meant I could eat there with little to no concern. Glad I stopped in ☺️

Service was lovely. Options for gluten free. Server was lovely about requests to our order. Lunch special had lovely flavours and was truly well crafted. Lovely tea in a pot. Fabulous coffee Atmosphere was a bit noisy up until after 1 pm. But regardless we will come back soon.

Great atmosphere, fantastic service from Mark.My partner had the haddock sandwich and wouldn’t stop raving how “this is the perfect sandwich. Everything works” so I think he liked it. I ordered their grain bowl and it was also very fresh and delicious. Menu changes often and you can tell they really care about the food they serve. We also thought they were very knowledgeable and made great recommendations!

Friendly wait staff with relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. Very happy to have stopped in per recommendation from a local coworker. The olive loaf dessert was incredible.
