This place is amazing. It’s great for pick up and delivery. The best kind breakfast sandwich in a butter croissant is perfect. The Casablanca bar was tasty too. I also order hummus and crackers which are great if you are trying to be healthy. The crackers are made of flaxseed blend and gluten free. It’s nice place for a health conscious person, and someone who can’t be bothered with it to go. The prices are great. I put this place on the top of my door dash list. So happy I chose to order from here.Vegetarian options: They have vegan options.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten friendly items on the menu as well.

Some of the worst coffee I’ve ever had.

This is a cool place. The location is excellent! The service is really great as well! I've had nothing but pleasant dealings with the employees here.The drinks are good! I've had a few different beverages, and they have all been great! They're a tad on the pricey side, but that's to be expected with local coffee shops.I got a chicken sandwich. I don't remember what exactly it was, but I do remember how mediocre it was. It was very expensive and for what it was, that price is not justifiable. It tasted like something you'd make at home with whatever fixins are in your fridge.I'll be back here for the snacks and drinks, just not the sandwiches. You'll be better off going next door to yellow belly.

So many delicious, homemade baked goods and savoury treats! This cafe is also one of the few places that sells Phil & Sebastian coffee beans (which make such good coffee!).

Forget any Scones you had tried before. Try theirs, probably English style, not so sweet, crispy enough to chew, and enough to have a light breakfast. Their coffee is amazingly special.

Unfortunately Rocket has taken a nosedive in terms of service. Their food and coffee is good, if you can get it. However, it takes AGES. Many people run in to get a coffee and end up waiting 20+ minutes. I was just there and ordered a latte which took almost 20 mins, and the couple who had ordered before me ended up asking for a refund and leaving because they couldn't wait any longer. 30+ minutes for to go food and coffee isn't going to cut it for most people. If you have time to go in, order, sit and wait then it's lovely. But if you expect any kind of expedience on to go orders, you will be sorely disappointed. The staff is also apparently overwhelmed. They cannot keep up with orders. As a result, they are snappy and rude, which I understand, but something needs to be done about it. MANAGEMENT - where are you?

Fresh baked goods are top drawer, servers seem sullen and tire, prices outrageous. I can, and do, bake better bread at home for a fraction of the price.As is usual for St. John's, Price is prohibitive

This is a long way to come for the BEST breakfast sandwich! It's well named: "The Best Kind Breakfast Sandwich". I had it on the aged cheddar green onion biscuit....utterly delicious. Tastes as good as it looks!- a fan from Plymouth, MA

I had my first Cod fish cake and it was sooo tasty. Fresh, lots of fish and the homemade Tarter sauce was excellent. I should have bought more to go ?.

I felt like I was bothering everyone working there by placing an order. Not welcoming or warm at all. Instructions for where to wait for your order weren't clear. I didn't receive my pastry at the area that coffee was being passed out and waited there almost 10 minutes before lining up again to ask for it.

The food and drinks were good, however the service was indifferent at best. The store wasn’t busy. Ordered a cappuccino, two lattes, a brewed coffee, two breakfast sandwiches and an oat square. The drinks and square showed up about 30 minutes after the sandwiches. When the server was asked if the remainder of the order had been forgotten, she was indignant at being asked.

I had a Raspberry Flackie today and I must say that it was as good as anything I’ve eaten before.
