Good Earth Coffeehouse - Kitchener — Restaurant in Kitchener

Food is delicious, with a lot of vegan and vegetarian options, breakfast, lunch, and light dinner options. There are plenty of coffee types, tea, and shakes. I found the Touch of Honey Latte perfect with oatmilk and the ham and chedder egg on a croissant perfect blend of flakes and solids. I may buy one to go before I leave.

Service was warm and welcoming, I felt invited; as if I had been coming for years. The staff are mostly younger with smiles and a sense of gratitude. The young but capable manager has an eagerness to serve and answer any questions. Even though they have just opened, it felt like the staff chemistry works well, like they had done it for years. When making my drink, the young woman ensured I got what I needed for milk substitute, and I felt my meal was in good hands (it was). They also have a rewards program, plan to use this card often.

Refreshing atmosphere, cafe feel. Spacious for 20+ inside and a patio style outside, seating for 12 with umbrellas for sun/weather. Music playing in the background is upbeat but not overwhelming as it can sometimes be at cafés. There is a highchair for a baby to eat at the table, which you dont always find at businesses these days. Plants make it feel homey and café style art. Wide windows allow for natural light and an enjoyable sense of being outside, while in the comfort and warmth of being inside. Attached to the bookstore next door for...

After months of dine in and take out visits, I can truly say they deserve five stars. Every time I have been in the coffeehouse, I have been greeted and acknowledged when I got in. The staff are all friendly and warm. The coffeehouse itself has always been clean and felt welcoming. The snacks and dishes on offer I would say are on par with other coffeehouses but of course with a twist. From months of visits I can say that their food is not forgettable as with other restaurants. They have a fresh taste, from the baked goods, to the breakfast items, non of it tastes frozen or taken out of a box like other restaurants. The coffees, teas and other drinks are freshly made, and again feel thoughtfully made with flavours that are intriguing and tasty. It’s hard to find fault in coffee shops at times and this one is especially hard because I’ve had a fantastic experience every time and always look forward to the next time. No gatekeeping here, can’t...

So I honestly don’t even know where to start……I was super excited to try out this new place since I had received a coupon in the mail for a free drink. So I order drink of choice as well as a few treats and I swear I’m not joking, the moment I started eating one of the pastries it tasted like mold so I looked at the bottom and it was covered it green mold! Also I noticed they still charged me for the drink even though I used the coupon. I then went back and told them about the mold and he said “they just baked it this morning” which is definitely a down right lie as it’s impossible for it to be covered in mold if it was baked in the morning. I also work in the food industry and I know just off of my experience that they are not up to code on their food safety. I would steer clear of eating here if you don’t want...
