Island Cafe is a charming spot on the Toronto Islands, known for its vegetable and flower gardens, umbrellas for shade, and convenient location across from the Ward's ferry dock. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes, including a popular vegan fritter wrap and an acclaimed kale salad. The outdoor seating area features many tables and chairs, some in the shade and others in the sun, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. The cafe serves delicious, affordable food such as a super tasty and filling burrito with fried egg, beans, and cheese for only $8, along with sweet treats and espresso bar coffee. Vegetarian options are available, including a vegetarian burrito with optional meat add-on and vegetarian pastries with spinach and cheese. The staff, including Erin, is known for their energetic and helpful attitude, making the experience even more enjoyable. Many visitors praise the service and the quality of the food, describing it as amazing and worth returning for. Though the cafe recently faced a devastating fire, the community eagerly anticipates its reopening, as it has long been a vibrant heart of the Toronto Islands, attracting both locals and tourists with its warm, laid-back vibe and lively, upbeat service. The unique charm and magic of Island Cafe are deeply missed, and many look forward to its return.
