Gabriel's Cafe offers a delightful farm-to-table dining experience, featuring standout dishes like the "green eggs and ham," "hauling oats," and the unique "When Pigs Fly" sandwich. The service is friendly and accommodating, and the cozy atmosphere creates a great ambiance. The cafe is known for its high-quality, locally sourced meat, eggs, and vegetables, as well as generous portions like the Malaysian satay bowl with tofu. While most dishes are praised, some vegan options like the pancakes may not suit all tastes. Free 2-hour parking is available on weekends, and the location is conveniently close to Departure Bay.
The reviews highlight the cafe's welcoming atmosphere, with a focus on the availability of great vegan breakfasts and the staff's willingness to accommodate dietary needs. The in-house lemonade, Tuna Poke Bowl, and Thai Tofu Bowl are also praised for their exceptional quality and flavors. The restaurant is known for its hearty, delicious meals made with locally grown ingredients, resulting in a satisfying dining experience.
