My partner and I had breakfast here on Sunday.

Read moreA Small Shop That Outshines the Competition Tucked away in a hidden court of Hasting, this cafe might be easy to miss, but it's definitely worth the hunt.

A true gem among the city's culinary and...
Read moreArrived for breakfast, rude service from the cashier and wait staff….. ordered an iced chai latte w zymil, and received an iced latte, I politely asked the staff to change it and was greeted with more rude attitude. Then they brought out and slammed down my drink (not with zymil!!) I just wanted my ZYMIL ICED CHAI LATTE!!! 😭😭
When ordering I asked for hash browns, which she replied very rudely NO HASH BROWNS…. Then five minutes later we see a waitstaff bring out three plates of hash browns for other guest….. WHERES MY HASH BROWNS!!!😭😭😭
The menu was really nice though and the service was quick… but I felt that I was treated rudely because we were younger and they completely disregarded my love of hash browns...
