On cuisine beaucoup avec de l’huile d’olive , j’ai grandi avec! Encore un Grand Merci! Espérant revenir une autres fois en été. Fatia from Alberta, Okotoks, 30 mn from Calgary!😊😊😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Amazing empanadas! By far the best I have had since living in Latin America 15 years ago and better than most I had there, too. They are baked, which I always preferred to fried ones, and that also means they are healthier! The beef ones are my favourite. I could eat these every week.“

This is the first time though that I have tried the apple ? fritters from here so hopefully the next time I might try another one I will be pleasantly surprised and find more apple ?.“

“We were recommended this place for fresh bread by our new friends at the Italian Import Store down the road. We weren't disappointed! The foccacia we bought is softer than my pillow and the little cheese and herb rolls were a nice snack (only $1 each!!). The woman working was very kind and even set aside a foccacia for me. I'll be coming back here regularly!“

“A delightful little neighbourhood cafe and food shop.. the variety of brunch items was welcome. The grilled chicken panini, sausage roll and breakfast sandwich were all tasty and well prepared to order. Large assortment of takeaway dinners which we will definitely be trying on our next visit. Sheltered tables outside or on the lawn. Victoria needs more of these little hidden gems.“

Amazing matcha as well, and some vegan options are available.“

“Came in today for the first time since it was a Starbucks. Was having a tough day since my mom just passed recently and it's Christmas Eve. All the employees were angels. The kindest humans I've met in a long time- they made me comforting and delicious drinks and kept checking on me. They interacted with each other and customers in such a kind and friendly way, making everyone feel welcome and at home. My horrible day was made way better by just being here. I'll certainly be back. Thank you all so much and happiest of holidays to you.“
