This place actually has to be the absolute definition of a hidden gem. That term gets thrown around a lot, but this is it. Tucked away between car dealerships and print shops on the industrial outskirts of Halifax is the cutest little haven.Yummy drinks and baked goods, a large selection of books, and friendly staff are all here! If you find yourself in this area for any less desirable tasks or errands, make sure you pop in here to make your day a little better.

I love this little, out-of-the-way, coffee shop. The coffee is very good and the food is simple but very tasty. The mood is great, from the books on display, the art on the walls and the cute little back room for cozy convo. Bring your besties.

This is the best kept secret in Halifax. Go for coffee and be surrounded by books and writers with a tasty sandwich or cookie as a bonus chapter. It’s a perfect place to read or write, meet a friend or sit quietly with your own thoughts.

Just had the amazing red pepper bisque, and the mood/space is so calm and welcoming. What a hidden gem!

Fantastic little spot to come relax with delicious "Laughing Whale" roasted coffee and a book. There's so many wonderful books for sale as well as a lovely snack menu. Will be back when visiting Halifax next!

WOW!!I cannot overstate how amazing this cafe is and how cool the guy who owns the place is, too!!I accidentally stumbled upon the location one day when I was searching for a quick spot to stop in for a latte. Since I wanted to avoid the obvious chain locations this place popped up by process of elimination. I am so glad it did. The chai latte is next level! Hand grated nutmeg atop! Chocolate chip oatmeal cookies are perfect every time. I love both of these items so much I never want to stray from my 'usuals', but truly, the variety offered is great!!! Soup of the day always sounds delicious, lots of seating, and amazing books to browse over. This is like a one stop shop for all things cozy; great seating, great atmosphere, great food/drinks, great book selection, and just overall an awesome little gem that is hiding in plain sight!Do yourself a favour and check them out, you won't be disappointed!!!

A great store with a beautiful interior. Also if you're used to downtown coffee prices you'll be pleasantly surprised at how affordable this place is. The owner is also a very friendly guy
