The Broken Kettle — Restaurant in Champlain

So a friend I work with recommended this place. I stopped in not really sure what to expect but I found a quaint little coffee shop bakery that has a very down home feel to it. I tried a few things and have to say I’m hooked. It sells all locally sourced stuff and it tastes great. I also am the type of person that has coffee as a food group so I am hesitant when branching out in that area but I gave it a try. The coffee tastes great, no bitterness or aftertaste.

Stopped here on our way from Montreal to Ottawa - specifically because this is an independent coffee shop and cafe and because it was mentioned in a recent Louise Penny book called The Grey Wolf.
