Lovely little Cafe. Had a real cafe/hang out type of vibe. Friendly staff and resonable prices. They have a great patio out back overlooking the river and the Canada/US border!

Stopped by to meet a friend and have coffee and something yummy! Now this might seem strange, but I give their washroom a 9.5/10. Clean functional and ... well... nicely designed. Particularly liked the plants in there and the plants seemed to like it too!!

Staff was so kind and accommodating. Stopped by for a cappuccino and a riverfront view before taking a tour of the chocolate museum. Best coffee I’ve had in a while!

My husband and I stopped in at this cute coffee shop on the way to Calais today. Our barista Cate was such a joy to deal with and made the best iced Latte. She’s a five star employee! We also absolutely love the new paint job inside. We will certainly be back soon!
