Amazing little stop on the side of the road. Breakfast sandwich was absolutely killer !! Tons of flavour made to order. Fresh ingredients bursting with flavour !! Highly recommend adding this to your visit on the Sunshine

Was a little disappointed with the vegan options. The vegan version of the breakfast sandwich didn’t have too much flavor. It doesn’t include any cheese (which I assumed it would since the normal version does), it’s only Just Egg, veggie sausage (or mushrooms), and toasted garlic bread. It’s missing an additional sauce or cheese. And the veggie sausage is mediocre, I’d probably opt for mushrooms or something else, the veggie sausage is a bit bland, and it’s soft and squishy. Otherwise love this place and the spirit of it!

I had such a great experience at the Shortcut. The food was delicious, creative and quick. The atmosphere is so cozy and it's lovely to see collaborations with local farms. ?

Best vegan breakfast wrap I’ve ever had. My partner had the breakfast wrap with sausage. Simple, perfectly-balanced ingredients. We will be back!!

Would give ten stars if I could. Everything I’ve had here is incredible and fills me up.

Great food and lovely to sit by the farm and chill while it's being prepped. Highly recommend stopping off if you're in the area.Had the BC Butty with veggie sausage, hashbrowns and coffee.Vegetarian options: Veggie options available for most sandwiches. You can sub mushrooms or veggie sausage for most sammies.Kid-friendliness: The kids love looking at the ducks and farm. Seems like the pancake fries were a hit with most of the kids that were there when I was.Parking: A few spots off the road (enough for 4 or 5 vehicles) but it's on a quiet road so you can likely street park too.Dietary restrictions: Overheard that there are gluten free batters for the pancakes.

Was a nice spot in front of the farm. They had parking clearly visible. Limited seating area, no washroom options.. there was a good selection of food, mostly breakfast, but what we did order was delicious.. there was only 1 person serving customers, but he did so well, checking on everyone and confirming that there was a waiting period that no one seemed to mind.. will definitely come back here.

Soooo pretty much everyone was ordering the Shortcut (some magical sausage on bun dealio) but we watched as others dined in happiness on those, and went the less traveled route and tried the basic breakfast sandwich and the veggie one.We left happy too!A help-yourself cooler for non-alcoholic bevvies is up front, which helps keep you cool while waiting for your food.Lovely food, entertaining chef, and super chill spot on Henry Rd. A great spot to stop while road riding through from the ferry.
