What a cool place! Outdoor gear shop and eatery all in one. They have lots of pastries, breads, and meals. The food is delicious! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. If you are going through Buena Vista, I would highly recommend stopping and supporting this wonderful local business.

Nice spot that we stopped at for lunch in Buena Vista. A little pricey but the food and service were good. We split the burger and chicken sandwich. Both were good but the chicken was a little dry.

The food was delicious. The service was great considering how busy they were on a Wednesday afternoon. No complaints from a family of 9. I recommend the Blackberry Basil was delicious. They had wonderful gluten free options.

This place is our favourite restaurant in all of Buena Vista. The soups are made from scratch and incredibly delicious. Get the bowl size. We tasted the carrot ginger and tomato bisque and had a hard time choosing a favorite. We paired it with a pretzel board that we shared. Each one comes with beer cheese and honey mustard sauce. …
