Receiver Cafe & Bistro

My wife and I were visiting the island and figured we’d grab breakfast at a local dine in restaurant, and chose Receiver Coffee - The Brass Shop. SO GLAD we did! WOW wow wow wow wow! The food was DELICIOUS and the coffee was amazing. The ONLY thing that topped the food was the HIGH QUALITY service we got from the young man that served us. One of the best…ever! Seriously one of our best dining experiences. Next drop over to the Island will definitely include a stop here!

Visited PEI from newfoundland we ate at the brass shop location. we loved it so much we went 2 mornings in a row. Great coffee and the food was even better!

Great flat white and latte!

We had the best start to our day here. Great coffee and my yogurt bowl was amazing! Our waitress was awesome too! Hoping to go back one more time on our trip. Also bought coffee beans to enjoy at our accommodations and it’s been so yummy!

Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating of our infant and toddler. Also, they have a kids menu.

Hands down the best coffee I’ve had in PEI. Lovely lovely atmosphere, friendly and super helpful staff, great design. There were also great food options but we were just there to grab coffee. Glad we did! (The kids tried hot chocolate but they didn’t like it, just a heads up - maybe yours will love it lol)

I had the strawberry-lemon jam croissant. A pure delight. The croissant was so tasty. I'm still dreaming about it, it was so good and my latte was creamy and perfect. A big YES for the place.

What an amazing cafe/bistro for drinks and food! Every single bite of the breakfast bowl was full of unique flavours. One bite savoury and the next one with a little bit of heat. I highly recommend this and other locations on the island!

Great coffee and love their vegan sausage

Nice clean cafe with ideal location. Food and coffee were great! Service, on the other hand, was stale and cold. I stepped up to the counter with a smile and said, "Hi, how are you?" to the person at the register when she beckoned me to step up to the till with nothing more than a nod. I was responded with just a, "What do you want?" - no greeting, no smile, nothing.. I gave my order. Said please and thank you. Got nothing back from the person serving me. Didn't get anything from the barista who simply dropped my order on the corner of the counter. We were several people waiting for their food and drink. The order sat there for a minute before one of us asked the barista who the order belonged to. Barista just glanced at the production screen and announced a name without even looking at the customer. We glanced at each other and shrugged. You know, if you expect people to tip a minimum of 18% for takeaway coffee and pastries, maybe give a bit more warmth than what comes from a mug?

Although the cafe is located in the center of downtown, the prices were reasonable and the staff were very nice. The food and breads were also very delicious. Highly recommended!

It's not clear whether it's self-service or order-based. Seems to be popular with locals.

My daughter and I stopped at Receivers in June when we were visiting Charlottetown. The latte was the best that I have ever had and the Island Hotcakes were absolutely delicious.
