A fantastic latté- beautiful latté art, delicious espresso. So impressive for a coffee shop in a small, university town. 😃

Great local food! They have very diverse menu full of choices, none you can really go wrong with, great coffee and hot beverages and home made desserts. The atmosphere is very relaxed despite the fact that it's typically pretty packed. Great place!

I had a good cookie... not great but good. My wife had a great beet salad. We each had Americano coffees that were mild not hot and incredibly weak flavoured for an espresso based coffee. Had it to go ... so too late to sort it out.

Wonderful little cafe with great local coffee, great food and delicious baked goods. My favourite is the lentil walnut burger. This is a unique cafe that normally you would see in a big city but is in small town antigonish. The walls are decorated with local art available for purchase. When you came here you feel like someone is welcoming you in to their home.

Easily one of my favorite lunch and coffee spots in Antigonish. Desserts are to die for and the coffee is always fresh and delicious. It feels like a little slice of the city nuzzled right in this small rural town.

We were having the nightmare vacation from hell. Everything that could go wrong had gone wrong and we were ready to head back home early. We had seen this restraint after getting gas and I'm not kidding when I say this place made us want to stay and do the rest of our vacation. The pizza was incredible with the goat cheese. I've been all over north America and this pizza is either the best or tied for first place. Perfect crust and fresh toppings. The goat cheese and mozzarella made me almost weep tears of joy and the French toast with blueberries and rosemary my gf had we're insanely good...It's immediately obvious when dealing with the proprietor that this was her dream and she serves with love and drive that only someone fulfilling there passion could.

I recently attended a masters program at St.FX which requires a three week residency. This coffee shop was my second home while I was here. The Americanos are lovely, as are the snacks and staff. The ideal place to study or visit.

A nice cafe that looks to be heavily frequented by students so seating might be difficult to find. Coffee was great and they have fresh baked goods as well as sandwiches and wraps. We tried the cookies and brownies and they were quite nice. Pretty atmospheric of a university cafe.

Sandwiches are superb. One of the better food establishments in town.I particularly like how they treat the Paramedics. We all know they can get a call at the drop of a hat and likely won't get lunch but this place makes sure they are served promptly ensuring they at least have a 'chance' to eat. Will continue to support this business because of this.

Amazing little cafe/restaurant. Order ANYTHING! It's all good--no, seriously. It's all so delicious. Atmosphere is so cozy, and the music they play is swell too.It only loses one star from me because there's no baby change station in either washroom. 😓

I've been eating in this super cafe for 10 years! Make it point to stop in whenever we are back in town. It was always my go to place when I lived in the community. The food is consistent and satisfying with good value. A husband and wife team who get to know their customers. This cafe is in the center of small University town and is alive with creative happy energy. It will be busy but it's worth the time to sit and talk and maybe meet someone new.

Love, love, love visits to Antigonish when can stop in and have a meal here. My go-to fav is the Greek veggie sandwich - it is hands down one of the best cold sandwiches you'll find anywhere. My friend always goes for her fav when she's visiting - the walnut veggie burger. Beautiful coffees, teas, sweets, and more in a relaxed, welcoming, and cozy atmosphere in downtown Antigonish.
