Food is amazing! I would say visit just to try their Carrot Lox bagel. I ordered lattes and cold brew drinks which were also great. Their desserts are wonderful as well. They knock the hand pies out of the park! However, I suggest going on slow times and only dining in. Their service lately has been inconsistent with sometimes forgetting to input an order or just taking a long time to put the items together. I can say that the ladies working the weekend are awesome, so if you do drop by with time to spare, that’s the best time to do so. For first time visit, I suggest just grabbing the already made items like the desserts or wraps. If you have time to wait, then an order a hot plate. I promise, the food is delicious because I keep coming back for more.

Would love to have stayed and tried the coffee, but the barista was very rude. Not only to myself but to others that came in after. No patience for explaining the menu to myself or others who came in after me. This occured on Friday the 13th. Could that be the reason?

I went around 9am and I was in desperate need of coffee. I had never been before and asked for a recommendation for flavoured iced coffee. The barista hooked me up with the most delicious lavender coffee. Peak experience 10/10

Amazing cafe with excellent food, drinks and ambience. I bought the chocolate peanut butter nougat and the carrot cake cheesecake which were both exceptionally good. It is refreshing to see a cafe where any random thing from the shelf tastes this good.

I went to The Parkside Cafe with my husband. My husband liked his coffee. The cookie I ordered was great, but my mocha was bad. No mocha sauce. I accidentally took someone else’s coffee (not the mocha). I get that it was my fault I took it, but the barista was mean to me about it. She didn’t need to be mean to me. I will never be back.
