“Was in town for the weekend and the day before I went for a stroll around d the wharf and saw this little gem, so I made the effort to come for breakfast the next day and it was the best decision ever! The sandwich au petit de jeuner was so good! The accompanying salad went perfectly with it. Ordered a sucre citron crepe too and it was to die for. Latte was incredible too. I am particular about my coffee, and lavender lattes are usually a hit or miss depending on how it’s made. This one was so perfect I ended up ordering a second one! Incredible experience I totally recommend to everyone! Don’t miss out on it!”
“This place is delicious and has great service. I love the coffee here. The bread and desserts are phenomenal. I would come here just for that. The the food and something you really can't skip. For sure hands down the best Croque Madame I've ever had. They actually use a bechamel sauce! It's a great place to people watch as well. I highly recommend this place for a 2nd date and above day time location. For the second date, keep it casual with a coffee/drink and dessert. Maybe some escargot to test their adventurous side.”
“I had brunch here for the first time with some friends and enjoyed it. Even on a holiday weekend, it was busy but not packed. I had the omelette à la ratatouille with egg whites and split the banana and Nutella crepe with my friend. Both were delicious and I would order them again. The food came out within a reasonable time and had good portion sizes.”
“Best French Bistro. Very high quality food. Veg options plenty. Kir Royale on menu. Service outstanding. Bri the waitress was very good. Nice view of the waterfront. We liked it so much we went there three times during our one week stay. Very extensive menu. Look no further if you a high quality French food without pretension. We certainly will go back. Worth more than five stars.”
“Upon entering the hostess Katia was very friendly and got us a good table with a view of The Wharf. Lovely breakfast place. The service is top notch ! Everything we had was very good. This is a family friendly place. I was able to sit and keep my child in the stroller. We would definitely return here. Our waitress Ferg was very accommodating and friendly, she was really great. Kip was very friendly and checked on all the guest! Before we left they bought out a cute little waffle for my mom’s birthday. Compliments to the chef! This is a great place to stop by when visiting The Wharf. Highly recommended.”
