We have been busy expanding our location in Hunter River as well as our seasonal location in Cavendish. Here are some pictures of the new outdoor seating area. The upper-deck is screened in to help keep any bugs out. Along with the renovations we have opted to set up a new website! Don't forget to visit and 'Like' our Facebook page to get the latest news and updates regarding the cafe.

Our cavendish location has been renovated and is now open for the season! In addition to a larger menu, we have extended our facility to offer authentic chinese cuisine. Here are some photos of our progress in Cavendish so far.

I had the breakfast sandwich on multigrain bread and I was blown away! I also got the ginger sparkle cookies and had to go back for another package before leaving! You must try this place!

We stopped in on a rainy Saturday morning for an early breakfast (not much open at 7:30 AM.
The diner is small and therefor cozy. A very warm welcome that instantly come with coffee.
The menu is on the wall and is fairly standard, no big surprises and no fancy-dancy things. Very standard.
The food is good, well and properly prepared but again nothing fancy.
The portion is good and I could t finish mine and my wife had the 1/2 breakfast and it was too much for her.
The price is right at <$10 for the full (deluxe) breakfast. $18 for both of us with coffee.
If you want food it is here, if you

By the river bakery is no fine cuisine but there is a lot of choices and the staff is really nice. A very good stop to make on the bike ride between Kensington and Charlottetown

Out and about site seeing for the day and my wife happened to find this little gem along our route.
Glad we stopped. We ordered haddock and chips as well as a roast beef sandwich. The fish was super tasty. Very lightly breaded and fried, super moist and tasty. The fries were great. The Roast Beef sandwich was served on homemade bread that tasted like it was made today (pretty sure it was) with home cooked and sliced roast beef.
Super happy to have found this little road side stop along our travels.

Unbeknownst to use this place had several health code violations not long ago. We were getting hangry and frustrated trying to find some place for a quick bite to eat. The food was so so but we definitely wouldn't go back.

Poor Service.
I wrote my experience that I had at the bakery yesterday. It has been deleted as of a few hours ago after no response.
Not much else I can say.
Poor Management?

A nice local spot ran by two wonderful ladies. We ordered breakfast here, it was fresh and tasty, nice size of the meals, great value for the price. The patio overlooks the river. Recommend!

We sat out on the deck- every table was covered in old meals & so many flies. We cleaned a table off ourselves. We sat there for 25 minutes- the staff saw us there, but did not acknowledge us, no drinks, no menus, nothing. We were there at 130, after the lunch rush, and only a group of 3 were seated & eating- so it was not busy, yet the place was FILTHY and ZERO service. Absolutely terrible service, and just plain DIRTY. So disappointed we waisted 25 minutes of our vacation on this dump.

It was hot as the hubs of hell in there today and the staff was suffering it out. I ordered 2 pc fish and chips with a side gravy. Didn't get my side of gravy but it was great just the same.
