Great location in a beautiful old building in the Old Port, but unfortunately that's it. The food in the display case looked pretty stale, & the one girl working was taking a personal phone call while at the counter. At one point she got really loud & tearful; it was disruptive. Maybe staff up so people can take turns? Or train staff not to take personal phone calls while at the counter?

The cafe is warm & inviting with lots of windows for natural light & elevated off the street. Couch areas perfect for families. The egg, ham, & cheese croissant was very tasty. The hot chocolate also! & finally & most importantly, the counter staff was so kind & welcoming. As time allowed, they brought our food directly to our tables, & mad us feel like guests (as opposed to other coffee shops that often make you feel as if you are bothering or annoying them.) This sense of personal interaction (contrary to the culture of anonymity) made the experience memorable & why we visited again. Recommend for families & solo travelers, for a respite from the cold :)

Visiting from Florida for a week. Looking for Tim Hortons & stumbled upon this beautiful place. Day#4, we have been here everyday, sometimes more then once. Still have not visited Tim Hortons. Nicole has made one of the best coffees I have ever tasted & this is coming from someone who drinks coffee 2-3 times a day. Nicole always smiling always happy just an amazing person. Christopher with a vibrant amazing personality always made us feel welcomed. Gave us tips, directions, always welcomed us. Long story short, we still haven't visited Tim Hortons. This place has been our best decision on our trip. My wife even made a statement " if we come back in 2years & these employees aren't here, it will be sad".
