Wow, I am very impressed! The food was absolutely delicious and I already know what I will try next visit. I had the Ultimate Club with delicious Dragon fries and a blueberry blast smoothie. Food is 100% vegan and very fresh. Great atmosphere, and the ladies working were very friendly and helpful. While I'm personally okay to eat gluten, they did have many gluten free options as well!

I have gotten the vegan/gf cheesecakes here before but this time when we picked it up the portion was so much smaller than what we had before but same price. I am a bit disappointed as I love that they have a dairyfree gluten free option for me.

I have a gluten allergy which I informed the cashier and then was charged the extra $3 to have gluten free bread. The cook then asked twice about the sandwich which I informed her I had an allergy which is why I needed the gluten free bread. She said she would be extra careful then. Took over 15 mins to make a grilled cheese sandwich. The sandwich was also extremely greasy it leaked through the wrapper and bad it was in. She said she would be careful with how it was prepped because of that reason. My throat ended up swelling up because there must have been gluten in it or came in contact with gluten. The cashier messed up the whole entire order it seemed like she wasn't even paying attention. Very disappointed and would not recommend this restaurant especially if you have allergies. I was hoping to come back to try the "gluten free" desserts but that is not going to happen.

On September 3rd 2022 (my wedding day) my now sister-in-law went to the Wolfville Farmers Market and brought me back a "Cream Cheese" Blondie. I have Celiac and a serious diary allergy. I ate half the blondie before I started to question if it was safe, i'm use to some gluten free treats being delicious but it was the cheesecake part that tasted TOO GOOD to be true. My SIL phoned Deb to confirm it was dairy + gluten free and of course it was. Not only was the blondie incredible (still thinking about it 18 months later) but Deb was also understanding and helpful. This treat was a wonderful way to start one of the best days of my life. Can't wait to have another blondie and try more treats on my next trip back home to Nova Scotia.

This is a lovely café. I just wish they'd offer a few fresh gluten free items that are not School House commercial baked goods. These taste like sawdust. Once in a while I'd like a break from the pecora although these are lovely.

The cafe is great. This is just the kind of place I like to experience. Everything we ate tasted great. And you also get gluten-free alternatives. The gluten free wrap was great. Because it's so good, the café is always busy. That's something that makes up part of the atmosphere. .... and the Canadians were always in a good mood.

Celiac friendly cheesecake! They always have one cheesecake with a GF crust and they ask if you’d like them to use a different knife to cut it :). So yummy! Kind of a bummer that there’s only ever 1 gluten free flavor at a time (unless you get the keto or vegan ones, which I haven’t tried) but all the ones I’ve tried have been great!

I'd had a very long day a long drive and not a lot of sleep when I had to be up early for an appointment. I was hoping to find some coffee place that wasn't the standard prefab place but there were power outages everywhere. Someone mentioned this coffee shop and it's in a very odd place but my God it is worth it. It's on top of the biggest hill in town and to me now it's like some sort of shining pagoda. Amazing coffee and fabulous staff. Power was out but they had hot coffee and took cash. They even had plant based doughnuts! Outside the city in atlantic canada is difficult for anyone vegetarian vegan or gluten free... but these folks have it all covered. Only downside is I can't give them 10 stars

They have tax-free grocery shopping on Saturdays, so save the date! Their fresh produce organics section could be better, though. Not too much variety. If they want to bring on rave reviews, they can work on lowering the price for their organics if possible. As a health-conscious consumer with an autoimmune disease, organics are essential for my diet. We shouldn't have to pay so much for the difficult sacrifices we already need to make for our diet (it's really difficult seeing people around you spend half as much money for twice the amount of unhealthy foods). I suggest more coupons/sales for organics once in a while. Nevertheless, they have lots of gluten and dairy friendly options. Again, prices for these are still high, but cheaper than Sobey's! Was surprised at their lack of hot sauces (only Frank's and Tobasco), and they don't appear to stock carry?) cilantro or fresh basil consistently (went twice now and they were out). Overall, a good place to grocery shop.
