“Nanaimo has needed a place like this for a long time!”
Nanaimo has needed a place like this for a long time! This place has a French bistro feel and the service is great and food is very good... Not enough bakeries and coffee shops like this! Soup and Reuben was perfect and the coffee beet I have had in Nanaimo in a very long time!
“It was the best panini I've had, maybe in my life.”
Wow, I found this place today... and it was truly the greatest surprise. I ordered their matcha latte, and green goddess panini, and I really mean it when I say it was the best panini I've had, maybe in my life. The bread was like the kind you'd only find in European countries and everything inside was just so good...
“The milk was perfectly steamed with a nice layer of foam”
Tried the vanilla steamer and americano with the Turkey Apple Brie sandwich, all were super yummy! The milk was perfectly steamed with a nice layer of foam and the vanilla flavour was super good! The sandwich was delicious and came out fast!
“Avocado toast and berry waffle are perfect for breakfast.”
I went a couple of times, loved everything I had so far. Avocado toast and berry waffle are perfect for breakfast. Turkey apple brie panini sandwich was also delicious, a bit more filling I will probably have it as lunch next time.
“We ordered 2 paninis and they were absolutely delicious”
We traveled all the way from the prairies to visit... We ordered 2 paninis and they were absolutely delicious. My boyfriend got a Ruben and I got the turkey apple brie. I especially liked the bread. The restaurant was cute and nicely designed and decorated.
