Came here on a Saturday. Got the chocolate frappe and s'mores frappe. Nice and sweet would recommend. Pretty artwork on the walls. Some seating available both indoors and outdoors. The grilled sandwiches smelled really nice (although we didn't have them). Bathrooms available.

This is a very busy spot right in Downtown Picton. It's a fairly small space but they do have seating available. Unsurprising that it was packed when we went in and all of the tables were in use with a mix of locals and tourists. They had a nice menu selection of different sandwiches, pastries, hot and cold coffees, teas etc. Pricing is reasonable and the staff are friendly. Would definitely go back!

Stopped by the cafe after breakfast for a midday snack. Ended up getting the ginger molasses cookie and my husband got the lemon loaf, and we both shared a latte. This gives the feel of a small town cozy cafe. Lots of regulars were there and a sense of community which was lovely to experience. Food tasted great and drink was good!

Super cute cafe with great food, great atmosphere. Limited seating but you can always take it to go. I was a bit put off by the prices but dismissed it as a small town cafe and got a sandwich. What a surprise, it was fresh and flavourful. I really enjoyed it and will be back.

Went with my friends for a lunch and all of us enjoyed our drinks and food. I personally recommend the blended frappe 10/10
