“The Rye bread is absolutely delicious!!!”

“We just had the pleasure of dining at The post Taphouse this evening, New Year’s Eve. The decor was so cozy and intimate, music at just the right volume to allow conversation, server was friendly and very professional. The food…can’t say enough good about it. Fabulous! Nowhere in St. John’s area tonight could food be any better! Compliments to the chef and staff! Thank you for a memorable experience!”

“excellent pizza, Best on the Avalon.”

“Great place”

“I called in my order on Monday night for the Festive Feast, for our card club ladies. They were super busy there. I picked up on our arranged time from a very welcoming staff person. The chicken was delicious, hot, & tasty. Thank you for a wonderful meal. This was the Torbay Mary Browns.”

“We have tried all kinds of pizza of course, but we love this pizza. We don’t like greasy pizza and this is perfect. Always on time, not a long wait and great taste and price.”

“Myself and my partner went there for brunch this past weekend. It was our first time and it will NOT be our last. Wow is all I can say. 10/10.”

“Came here with local friends and loved it. It’s our first time in St. John’s, and Peaceful Loft’s vegan menu was a perfect change of pace from some of the heavier NL dishes we’ve been trying. It’s a small family operation— the gentleman who served us and his wife in the kitchen own the place— so stop by when you’re not in a rush.
As soon as we were sat, we were given lovely squash soup, two house-made sauces, a tasty chunky topping of TVP and veggies, and bottomless green tea, and THEN the menu to order. The main meal took a little while— again, one-chef kitchen— and the owner kept apologizing, but we were a-okay. We’d already had a whole appetizer! He also gave us mandarin oranges while we waited, and when I told him how excited I was to have some fresh fruit, he gave me two more. 😁 The menu items were all generous portions with plenty of veggies. They made very sure our friend with a nut allergy was taken care of as well.
It was such a great meal, super affordable, with warm and friendly service, and we might never have known if our friends hadn’t suggested it. Definitely recommended!”

“The food is pretty good actually.”

“Thank you, Sinaing, for accommodating us for my son’s birthday and baptism! We first tasted your food during the summer, and I immediately told my husband that we had to celebrate here. Even though our family couldn’t be with us, your food made us feel right at home. The dishes were not only delicious but also carried that comforting, home-cooked flavor that brought back so many memories. Thank you for helping make this special day even more memorable for us!”

“Just came out of Majestea and wow 😊 loved it. The taste was amazing, the hospitality felt so warm, and the management is truly inspiring. You can tell how much heart they put into everyone . Wishing the whole team the very best. Also students, they’ve got a buy one get one deal right now so don’t miss out and grab it soon 😄”

“Amazing fresh sushi and very knowledgeable with gluten free! Highly recommend!”

“Had a couple nights at the Embassy while in St.John’s. Great spot!! Staff was awesome and friendly, while somewhat “saucy” (Joe and Tracy)! 😂 Locals were fun and made me feel like part of the group (Ally, Chris & Jeff, who talks too much)!! Local talent was awesome and can definitely sing and play to keep everyone entertained!! I will be back!!”

“Amazing food, beautiful decor, attentive and friendly staff, generous portions, and I’ll definitely be back! The fesenjoon was sooo delicious! Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Went there for a Screech In, it was an amazing time. The host was funny and his Newfy steak pretty good. Highly recommended!!!!”

“Had a raspberry chocolate tart and a latte, both were amazing and the staff were very friendly. Will definitely be visiting again when I’m back in St.John’s.”

“Best sandwich I had in a very long time and very affordable. I highly recommend! Delicious!”

“We stayed for 3 nights for our daughter's wedding. Our room was first class with w.c., large bath and large walk-in shower. It was quiet, facing the rear of the building. The front pedestrian way can be a bit noisy with revellers. Spotlessly clean, with aircon and fridge. The restaurant offered a varied evening menu, and the cuisine was superb. Likewise, a good choice for breakfast, and large portions. I had the 2 egg breakfast, and the eggs were cooked precisely to my instructions. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. This was my second visit, and I look forward to my third.”

“Best bake good ?”

“The absolute best fish & chips on earth!! Their gluten free batter is unmatchable⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Fabulous!!!!! What a great hidden gem ! Service , food and atmosphere was wonderful! I highly recommend this great place ❤️”

“We recently ordered a custom made Black Forest cake for an event. The presentation of the cake upon pickup was spectacular! We followed the verbal and written instructions. The cake was amazing, it was moist , icing was not sweet & it looked beautiful on the plates . Our guests really enjoyed it and several people took cake home ❤️ I was very happy with cake & would order again Thanks”

“walk in a total stranger but leave as an old mate. just a fantastic place with awesome food and tons of character. (and characters)”

“We are on our honeymoon and this was our first stop in St. John’s. The fish and chips were so good! Staff were friendly. Great energy! We’re stopping back in for another meal before we head home.”

“First day in St.John's. As vegetarians, we were so happy to find such a cute & cozy spot with such healthy and flavourful food options.

We had the soup of the day - butternut squash. Perfect on a cool October afternoon. We then had the Enchilada. Stuffed full of flavour. My only ask would have been to have an authentic, fresh, spicy salsa option.

The prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are generous. The price for some of the add-on options are a little high, but otherwise the actual item prices are very reasonable.”

“Had brunch there today. Not only was the food delicious but the server was fantastic!! So cheerful and an absolute delight!”
