“Had lunch with my friend yesterday and it was awesome! Grilled chicken vermicelli is the best in the area! Red curry chicken and rice was amazing! Will definitely be back to explore other things on this amazing menu! Everyone needs to try this place!“

“Hey friends go eat at the The Little Griddle across from In Harmony Dance so good!! All homemade food, custom orders, super nice, great prices!! It's my new favorite family owned restaurant!! Here's what my friend and I had today!! ( gluten free, vegetarian options) Owners Alanna and Tyler are very caring people and go above and beyond. Food allergies and special diets they always make everything safe for me. The food is amazing and the staff are fabulous.“

“Oh!nest Cafe in Keswick is an absolute gem that every dessert lover needs to experience! From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with the warm, inviting atmosphere of a true family-run establishment. But let’s talk about the star of the show—their home-baked, small-batch desserts. Oh my, where do I even begin? First, the **cannoli**. These aren’t just any cannoli—they’re the *best* cannoli I’ve ever had. The shells are perfectly crisp, the filling is creamy and rich, and every bite is a little piece of heaven. Then there are the **bite-sized cheesecakes**—adorable, indulgent, and bursting with flavor. Each one is a mini masterpiece, and you’ll find yourself reaching for “just one more” until they’re all gone. But wait, the **butter tarts**… oh, the butter tarts! These are nothing short of legendary. The flaky, buttery crust paired with the gooey, caramelized filling is pure magic. They’re the kind of dessert that makes you close your eyes and savor every single bite. I’d go back just for these alone! What makes Oh!nest Cafe even more special is the love and care that goes into every treat. You can taste the passion in every bite, and it’s clear that this is a place where quality and tradition come first. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this cafe is a must-visit. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Oh!nest Cafe, you’ve won my heart (and my sweet tooth). I’ll be back soon for more of your incredible creations! 🧁✨“

“We tried this cafe for the first time. The area was clean and organized. The quality of the food was well and we enjoyed. The servers were very friendly and courteous. The bread was fresh and loved the coffee as well. The food presented well. We highly recommend this cafe.“

“LOVE coming here - with its warm, welcoming atmosphere and EXCELLENT coffee!“

“We had food catered for a drop in birthday party including great appetizers like sausage rolls & bruschetta made in-house, and elaborate charcuterie boards. It was all packed perfectly and on time for pick up the day of the party. The bread was still warm! We had 3 different cakes and all were awesome, especially the carrot cake. Ashley was very easy to work with and helped us create the quality casual atmosphere we wanted and menu we needed. We were able to enjoy our guests without fussing over food and felt are guests were getting special treatment. Definitely would recommend!“

“I think that this is the best snack bar/cafe in an arena in all of Ontario! great selection of baked goods, great coffee (and espresso drinks!) So nice to not have to leave to go to a Tim Hortons and the prices are very reasonable. These guys do it right!“

“Soups are delicious, muffins are fresh and massive. Very good value for the quality. Wish you guys had an Instagram account so I could tag you in my lunch.“

“Truly incredible cause, communities all across our nation need more enterprises like this for neurodivergent Canadians“

“I drove/walked by Elpida a hundred times - I’m so glad I finally came in! The espresso was excellent, the hot chocolate was amazing (my husband a hot chocolate aficionado asked if he could have a second one!) and the baked goods vere lovely. Most of all the young couple of Elpida are beautiful - warm, friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and community oriented.
Love this cafe - you are Elpida in this cold impersonal world! Thanks, we’ll be back!!“

“Really awesome place, I wish there was more places like this. It feels like the owners/staff really care about the service and atmosphere. Solid collection of games, and I love the community style programs they have throughout the week. Highly recommend. The food and drinks I've had are decent. Nothing special, but certainly nothing bad. The coffee, the fries, and the milkshake were also solid. I definitely will continue to get them when I go.“

“I love Yours Conveniently! Everything they offer is special! It is my go-to for last minute dinners, fresh baked goods, beautiful flowers, delicious coffee and home decor.“

“excellent coffee and pastries...finally a quality bakery/cafe...thank you“

“Absolutely family and dog friendly farm. Best apples for picking! Yummy foods and drinks for both humans and fur babies!!! Love coming here every fall!“

“They have great food there but don’t go there hungry. You will be waiting forever for your food. We had many instances where we waited way too long for our food that we just decided not to go back. We stayed away for awhile and thought to give it another try tonight. Not only did we wait forever for our food, others got seated & served before us. I waived the manager down and she gives the excuse of the waffle maker being broken then the waitress says it was because they got our slips mixed up. They gave me antra salad to make up for it and my kid got sprinkles on his waffles. No discount on the bill. I loved going to this place but we will not be visiting Symposium again“
