“When a café’s main problem is that there’s not enough of it, that’s a good sign. This shop was like a shot of espresso — small, condensed, and packing as much flavor, personality, and charm as is possible. I ordered an espresso and a cappuccino. There were about 5 people waiting ahead of me when I ordered, and I managed to get my two beverages within 5 minutes. Truly impressive for two people working behind a tiny counter with one espresso machine on it. The espresso was very light, sweet, and acidic, with notes of cherry. Very good for those who like that sort of thing. It had a rich and deap crema, and came on an adorable saucer matching the espresso cup with a demitasse spoon on the side. The cappuccino was brilliantly frothed, with the rich milk cutting into the acidic espresso — the micro-foam perfectly combined with the milk. If only it had a place to sit down, weird harbor would go down as one of my favorite café’s I’ve been to. Easy 5 stars.“

“Stopped in with hubby and the doggies for lunch. Was thrilled we could have the dogs with us at the table on the patio and that there were water bowls provided. Service was a little slow and unfortunately our order got lost and it took a while to get our food. Kitchen tried to rush the meal to make up for the delay and our spinach dip was still cold in the middle. Overall the food was good and I would return to try the food again.“

I'm not a big fan of IPAs, but this one was interesting since it was a sour! The mango & dragonfruit was a beautiful dark pink color and the taste was smooth and fruity, very delicious!“

“On a day pouring with rain we all need a hot cup of coffee. This is the place to get it.

This little cafe is cute as a button and as expensive as one too, an easy place to just sit with a good cup of coffee and enjoy the atmosphere. The barista is very friendly and it was a joy to talk to her, I even missed her when it was time to leave. Overall good place to go if you need a quick on the go or done in coffee“

“This was a really cool spot. I did some looking on Reddit before going for dinner and didn't see this place as a recommendation - ended up trying it out as we happened to walk by. Very glad we tried it though! Our server was very knowledgeable and made recommendations based on flavour profiles which you don't see often. Everything was priced similar to other bars but the ingredients were clearly high quality. We had the beet salad, (bright, fresh, zesty), lamb burger, (hearty, rich, flavourful), and salmon (crispy, light, balanced). I'd definitely come back.“

“We frequently stop here but 30 July 2025, on Wednesday, the server was unbelievably rude - didn't wait to hear full order, lots of bad attitude when confirming ingredients, the list was long for what was a 5 minute interaction.

There wasn't even a lineup.

Not sure if you should pay her more or less but you need to figure out your staffing and training.

Drinks were otherwise great at a great location.“
