The BEST Sticky Toffee Pudding I have ever had! And I've had quite a few...even Gordon Ramsey's.

Walked up about a block and half from the Sidney wharf to grab some treats. Had them cut in threes (only 2 pictured as I tried them first, lol) as they were huge! Very nice fudgy flavor. I did think the Nanaimo bar was the least tasty of the three bars I chose. The fudge pecan cheesecake bar was divine. Worth the walk up. ?

This place sucks. Overpriced, overcooked and almsot certian everything is day old. Plus, there is no accountability and poor service. I've stopped going due to the lack of care they put into what they serve.See the pictures. This happens every time. I love this town and we can do better. Let's improve our community and stop taking advantage of it.

Lovely storefront very close to Sidney by the Sea - Glass Beach. Picked up a Latte and a Pumpkin Scone.

Brownie was awesome but the male employee working there on labour day was not so welcoming. Instead of handing over to me, he threw the packed brownie on the counter also when I entered the store he was standing at the counter and the other employee (female) was busy working. We stood there for 5 mins waiting to take our order but the male guy seems not interested. I felt weird maybe discriminated too.Extremely not happy with the service and on top of that they want us to tip them. Disgusting.Have some manners man you are a pathetic person.

If yall are soo keen to close the shop at 5 pm, and dont want to attend to customers then yall should change the timing and close the shop at 4:45 pm.The guy on the counter, on 4th September 2023, 4:45 pm did not hand over the packed brownie, instead threw it on the counter for us to collect. Gotta show some respect to the customers who pay your salary. Whether they are white or asian.

I would not normally do this but I’ve never had everything we purchased there $51 worth put in the garbage as it was not good at all.I had the hibiscus lemonade sorbet and it was so tart that after 4-5 bits my mouth was raw and numb - had to throw away. I also had the hibiscus lemonade drink and it was just watered down lemons. Sons had the vanilla gelato and one ate half the other said it was not good tasted like plastic, both thrown away. Bought vanilla lemon cupcakes, got home the icing must have been made with lard/crisco most definitely low quality ingredients and then the lemon curd was so tart again and the cupcake itself was dry and stale. Not sure if this was an off day but it was enough for us to never go back.

Picked up 2 cheese croissants to take with us to eat while waiting for ferry. Absolutely scrumptious. Just the right flakiness crunchiness and the perfect amount of cheese. Two thumbs up for taste, price and super friendly staff. ???? Highly recommend you stop by and indulge your tastebuds ?

Good coffee. Great scone - just the way I like them, slightly crunchy on the outside. Friendly service. Definitely worth a visit.

We finished off our visit to Sidney with an afternoon stop for a latte and treat. The lattes were great and I was delighted that they had a yummy vegan treat (lemon coconut cake) that I could enjoy. Thank you for the attentive and friendly service.
