This was an interesting experience for breakfast. The inside seating area was in a former greenhouse. At the back of the greenhouse were the washrooms. Note that you need to obtain a key to use the washrooms. During the meal, some geese walked into the greenhouse and certainly caused a stir. They were shooed away with relative ease. The food itself was plentiful and of high quality. Plenty of parking for automobiles, and at least one horse. The restaurant does not have a debit machine; you had to go to the greenhouse proper to pay by card. Overall, this was a good breakfast experience and I would come back again.

Had an amazing brunch at this cozy spot recommended by the owner of our cottage. We ordered the pancake breakfast and the chicken quesadilla, and we were blown away by how delicious everything was! The chicken quesadilla was packed with fresh veggies and tender chicken - so good. Also, the staff are super friendly. If you're bringing your furry friend, dogs have to stay outside the restaurant as they are not allowed to enter the greenhouse area and the restaurant.

What an absolutely lovely place. It is a farmer's market and diner with produce and other souvenirs for purchase. The diner is inside a make-shift greenhouse which was a delight to be in. It was cozy and extremely relaxing to just walk around inside. Food was equally delicious. We ordered French Toast, a wrap and teas. While I forgot to get photos of everything, we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. I wish there was accommodation close enough to be able to go here everyday, especially for breakfast and start the day off in the most relaxed way and add a smile while reading their menus.

Great place to go. It could easily be a destination spot on its own. The food and service is very good and the scenery with the greenhouse and surrounding area was unique in a great way.

Just minutes from the ferry this is where you need to stop as soon as you get off or before you depart. Really beautiful unique location and the food is incredible. Big portions and very reasonable prices.

The best breakfast on the island! The bread is homemade, as far as we could tell, everything was! It’s attached to a greenhouse/garden centre, so there’s interesting things to look at while you wait. There’s also a small grocery/gift shop with house made preserves, honey and maple syrup which look incredible. The vibe is friendly but no-nonsense (which as former industry workers we appreciate), service was good, and it’s super casual which was nice. We also started with lentil soup while we waited for our brunch and it was amazing. We will beeline for this place the next time we’re on the island!
