Absolutely amazing - reminder that locals love this place too, so be patient and friendly.

Amazing coffee, probably the best breakfast sandwich in the city, and likely the best quiche in Canada. Seriously. I mean I don't want to oversell but man. Simple, spiced, and delicious.

Coffee is local and top notch.

Outdoor patios which are amazing.

The only major problem is that when you're sitting outside you really only get a good view of parked cars. Blegh. But you're well away from the highway. I wish we'll get dedicated bike lanes one day and somehow group the parking away from the cafe.

Friendly staff and an outstanding patio beside the lake makes drinking coffee more enjoyable.

Great outdoor seating area right by the water, and the breakfast sandwiches and coffee were fantastic! Will definitely return when back in Dartmouth!

We were getting late in morning so ordered take out instead of Dine in.
Coffee was great so was the Barista
But the food I ordered was subpar and it took 30 minutes for a sesame bagel.
Sorry but one of the bad experience i’ve from a local cafe

Might have had the best cappuccino of my life at Cottage Cafe today. I don't want to sound negative, life may have a better one in store for me, and we don't need to compare everything. Have been coming here for years, and it might be my favourite place on earth. Here or home, both recommended highly. Staff are wonderful people with great personalities, which I'm always glad to see. You don't always get to see personalities at the big shops (I think they have policies). I get the scone. There's normally a selection of 3, but sometimes the bakers throw in a seasonal 4th and that is a really good day. See you here!

Absolute neighbourhood gem!

Coffee? Breakfast? Beautiful view? Cosy space during a rainy day? Cottage cafe got them all!

I got the breakfast sandwich, don’t be fooled by the simplicity of its look as it packs delicious flavours inside. I got an iced latte and it was also delicious! I was able to enjoy my treats in a sunny day In the patio that faces the lake-STUNNING! The service was fast, you order at the counter but they will bring your food to you if you’re sitting in. Many sitting options and parking available nearby! If you’re unlucky and don’t get a seat I recommend a stroll alongside the lake!

3 hairs in my food, not my hair. A lack of management led to the staff not wanting to address the situation.

I found this gem of a café while on a work trip to Dartmouth. Theor coffee lattes are absolutely incredible, their one of a kind Butterscotch muffin, it was absolutely delectable. Their Breakfast sandwich with bacon was tasty, flavourful, juicy and had my favourite honey mustard on it too. Generous portions and the amazing staff were caring, chatty, kind and offered very warm welcoming gesture to everyone.

This café I shall revisit every time I go to Halifax area.

Well done!!
