Interesting little shop here for coffee and baked goods. The front half of the store also sells assorted trinkets and gift shop style items.

The pastries and baked assortment appears to be the stars here. The lady in front of me grabbed a bunch of scones and cinnamon rolls to go. I did the same but ordered one each. The blueberry scone topped with walnuts was pretty amazing, freshly baked in the morning to boot! Cinnamon roll was also a good choice as it wasn’t overly sweet.

Good place to grab your caffeine fix and some grub before you hit the Cabot Trail!

Seventeen million stars for amazing customer service and custom veggie wraps. Four travelers looking for something of substance and delicious and vegetarian before a flight from the nearby food desert airport McCurdy. We walked in and out because didn't see much. Mr. (why didn't I get your name?) Counter Guy standing outside said I'm on break but if you have a few minutes I can fix you up some wraps! Yum plus the bakery (morning glory muffin, ginger molasses thing, cinnamon roll...) Plus good people. Didn't try coffee; want to go back

The blueberry and cranberry scones as well as the cinnamon rolls are definite 5's. Coffee is great as well.

I love this place and it’s all about the people who work here especially Drew and the coffee and food they serve.

They give the traits of the best Cape Breton experience and give their Croissant sandwich and Cafe Frappe a shot!
