First time here coming right off the morning ferry. Delicious bagel and coffee. The cheese was perfectly melted and the bacon on the thicker side just how I like it. Service was excellent with attentive and smiley staff. Will need to come back again next time I’m in Nanaimo.

Delicious. Had the motivator breakfast sandwich! Was such a good, simple burger with good ingredients. Only bit of feedback I have is to stream line the process for customers who are just ordering food to go! Maybe have a separate waiting line for them? Thanks so much for the food!

It was first time here but not my last ! I ordered the Classic breakfast at lunch time. Everything was cooked properly - 2 over easy eggs, lightly toasted bread, 3 browned sausages and chunky hash browns. Also i drank the dark roast coffee which was good. The servers were friendly and attentive to all the customers . The cafe was busy by 12:30. It closes at 3pm. i hope to be back soon

I've found it incredibly hard to find a place that perfectly does an over medium egg. This place was 100% on point. Best yolk consistency by far. The Sourdough toast was also perfect temperature great amount of crunch to butter ratio. I will absolutely be back!

This place is awesome. Very affordable, quick easy service with a tight well refined menu. The cooks in the back really put pride into their work and it shows. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick and hardy breakfast or lunch. Top 5 best breakfasts in town in my opinion. Cheers.

The owner was very kind, the food was amazing my daughter got the grilled cheese with soup and our younger daughter got a free soup. My wife and I had the classic breakfast and it was delicious. I’d recommend this to people who love breakfast :

This bistro is a hidden gem, tucked away from the usual tourist routes. The food was absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. I would highly recommend coming here for breakfast. The place was bustling with local people, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere that made the experience even better. A true taste of the community — definitely worth the visit!
