Louis Gervais is an absolute gem! Their lunches are always delicious—fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavour. The coffee is outstanding as well, easily some of the best in the area.

What truly sets this place apart is the wonderful staff. Everyone is warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, which makes every visit feel special. The ambiance is cozy, inviting, and perfect whether you're grabbing a quick bite, meeting a friend, or settling in with a great cup of coffee.

Highly recommend — a perfect spot for amazing food, great coffee, and exceptional service!

We want to thank you very much for helping make our son and daughter-in-law's wedding reception party a truly enjoyable and elegant event. The food was excellent and the event staff was very professional and cordial. Everything worked out smoothly and perfectly. You achieved everything we were hoping for, a relaxed atmosphere and delicious food.

The food at our son's wedding was fantastic! Every bit of it was delicious and we had some excellent leftovers for Sunday brunch. Chefs Scott and Krystal are truly professional and we thought everything went very well.

Thank you so much for organizing this for us. It was the first time we've had a catered event at our house, and I have a much better appreciation of what's involved in preparing a great meal.

I share this one as my own opinion because the guy who work here treat people who come with their parent (my parent eat their food so they treat him good, but because I don’t eat he treated me very badly )
Sorry but guys my parent does pay for the food and your rent does not raise if I sit there either
I was gonna leave a peeled banana for you to clean that up
Never coming back

I’m in the area almost every Tuesday and kinda made a habit of coming here for really good coffee. Sometimes I just can’t resist and get a sweet treat too, it is a cheese cake today and it convinced me to write a review. Staff is always nice, it’s peaceful and the front garden is just beautiful!

I found this place by accident, google map doesn’t say it’s a Cafe. But it is and you shouldn’t miss it.

Thay also have food which always looks delicious and healthy, but I’m still about to try that.

Love coming back, thank you.

My wife and I hired Louis Gervais Fine Foods & Catering to cater and bartend our wedding and we could not have been happier with that decision!

From the great atmosphere at the tasting dinner with Chef Louis and Sabine; to the professionalism and insight provided by Chloe at the site visit; they were so easy and fun to work with. Chloe took care of everything from creating a detailed rental list, to seating arrangements, and organizing staff.

The big day could not have gone better! Our guests loved the delicious food from the unique appies (especially the mini steak frites) to the delicious mains served family style. Their team also executed the set up perfectly and left our venue spotless.

We would highly recommend them for any catering event and not to mention the delicious food available for lunch at the storefront! :)

We used Louis Gervais Catering for our company event, and everything went incredibly smoothly. The team was excellent—professional, attentive, and warm throughout the evening. Their attention to detail stood out, and the food was a definite highlight for our guests.

I’m sharing this review in hopes that it helps others make an informed decision when considering Louis Gervais for catering. I’ve included photos of the platters we received for a “finger food/light refreshments” event for 80 guests. While the company appears to have strong reviews online, my experience tells a very different story.
When I first contacted the company, I clearly stated that I was organizing an event for 80 attendees, had a budget - but was flexible to go higher if they thought it would offer even better options, and most of all, welcomed their guidance since I was new to planning something of this scale. Based on their recommendation, I ordered four platters—which were described as serving a total of 120 people. To be cautious, I even added a fourth platter.
When the food arrived on the day of the event, our immediate reaction was shock and deep concern. For $977, what we received looked more appropriate for a small gathering, not an event of 80. It genuinely felt like we had been taken advantage of. I hesitate to use the word “scammed,” but that was the sinking feeling I had—especially knowing how many guests we needed to serve.
After expressing my concerns, the owner eventually offered one additional tray, stating that everything I initially received had been “accurately weighed” and matched their listed portions. Even with that tray, the quantity was still not nearly enough to feed our group, even by light refreshment standards.
What was most disappointing, however, was the tone of communication that followed. After picking up the extra tray, I received unprofessional and inappropriate text messages from Louis himself. Only after sending a formal follow-up email did I receive a partial apology, but again, they stood by the idea that the food provided was sufficient.
To add context: two of the trays were cheese and charcuterie, each priced at $310 and claimed to serve 40–45 people. I invite anyone to view the attached photos and ask yourself whether what was delivered lives up to those claims.
Ultimately, this experience was disheartening, expensive, and stressful. I hope my review—and the attached photos—offer some transparency to others so they can approach this caterer with caution, clear expectations, and, ideally, look elsewhere.

I’ve visited this place a few times after my appointments, as it’s conveniently located next door. I usually enjoy a coffee and snack while waiting for my ride. It’s been a nice spot to unwind.

Today, however, was disappointing. I had barely been inside for a minute (no joke) and hadn’t even had a chance to get up and order when a lady approached me and asked if I was going to buy anything. I explained that, YES, I was, and that I was just waiting for my ride and asked if that was okay. Her response: ‘No, not really. You should order something at least.’

That kind of assumption and tone left a sour taste. I came in with the full intention of ordering, but after being spoken to like that, I honestly didn’t feel welcome anymore. I left immediately.

As someone with over 15 years of experience in hospitality and even more in customer-facing roles, here’s some advice: A little patience and understanding goes a long way. And don’t jump to conclusions, it can turn a loyal customer away for good.

It’s unfortunate, but even the best product can’t make up for poor service and attitude.

Found this hidden gem in 2017 yet havent given them reviews.
Excellent food. Service is good even when they get super busy. Try avoid lunch time if you want quick service.

Louis is always so friendly and welcoming. I love all the staff. Feels like home. Food is great and options are diverse
Thank you Louis 🙌🏻

Perhaps difficult to assess Louis Gervais Fine Foods as the reviews are a mix of bistro reviews and catering reviews. However, having had a delicious lunch there and reading through a variety of reviews, it's evident that quality and flavours are consistently excellent across both experiences. Specific notes for the onsite bistro: great outdoor patio, craft beers are available in the cooler, and I wish they would update their weekly menus consistently online (the website's latest menus were nearly 2 months previous).
