    Save your time and money!!

    Not sure how this place is getting great reviews!!! We walked into this little cafe thinking it was going to be a great little place for some latte's & crepes, but what we walked into was ....GROSS. We bought a wagjag deal because we always wanted to try this place when we walk by. Tables were dirty, behind the counter was a mess. We placed our orders, making a little prayer and sat down. We got our crepes, and inside was burnt pieces of oil or the previous crepe...just gross!! We then realized that the owner didn't wash his hands between taking cash and other orders, dust on the fan above just hanging down, ready to fall on your head!!! Save your money people!!! This just proves that you get what you pay for on a Wagjag deal as well!!!!!

    best breakfst

    Well I went to this place and not sure what to expect, me and my wife and my sister-in-law and her husband met up there and had breakfast, I had the eggs florentine, and ....WOW!! this was the best breakfast we ever had. Not only that but we kinda went out on a limp and the brulee at this place was second to none, yeah the interior needs a little tune up but the food doesn't..It's perfect, I did mention it to one of the owners and thier reno start in the fall, but I will go back regardless of the reno.

    Horrible Experience

    I agree with Food Guru's review; not sure why this place got such rave reviews but we had a terrible experience. When we showed up it didn't even look like the place was open, the lights were off and there was only one person working - on his lap top. The place didn't seem well kept and it took a long time to receive our food since there was only one person making it, right on the counter, not even in a real kitchen. The food was forgettable; their website and menu is super misleading in terms of what you think you'll get. Overall the cafe seems poorly run offering no reason to ever go back again.

    Yummyyyyy

    Creme Brulee Cafe is amazing! I order all my cakes and baked goods from here for every event and party I have which is quite a few a year. Never a disappointment. The owners are awesome and go out of their way to make sure you're taken care of. I have also eaten from their menu and my favourite is the quesadilla. Also like the roast chicken sandwich. I like that there is no processed food used and the food and ingredients are fresh. Love the aftereight hot chocolate. Good music and ambience, they just renovated as well so theres good seating. This place has been there for so long for a reason! Def worth checking out!

    Awesome!

    A great place for coffee and dessert!! The atmosphere could use some sprucing up, however the desserts make up for it. I was happy to find out that they make their desserts there. I had the caramal creme brulee, and although it was a little runny the flavor was awesome. I was impressed that they had four different flavours. My boyfriend had the chocolate cake, i assumed it was a larocca but then found out they made it. It was fabulous. We both had dolce macchaittos which were quite good. I would defintely return, and would recommend.

    All was great..but.....

    My friends and i heard about this place and we thought with aq name like creme brulee this could be the place for us...and from the food point of view... TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!, We had the jerk chicken quesidilla, the roast chicken wrap and a smoked salmon wrap..for dessert we had brulee's vanilla, the butter rum is frick'n dangerous!!!!,and caramel. my toes curled!!! All was great, but there's a asian lady who was nice , but looked wayyyyy toooo stressed out, the guy behind the counter was trying to finish up orders but she was barking out orders like hitler..he's rtyin to finish but then she freaked on him ...i don't know, maybe she had a bad day. but just a little advice.. she needs to chill out and let people work.

    Konditori - Canadian version by way of Hong Kong and Guyana/Holland

    I've been a customer at CBCafe for about 3 years now and dine there about once a week. My first impression of this cafe is that of a Canadian version of the European Konditori, or cafe/pastry shop by way of Hong Kong and Guyana/Holland. I started to go there because of the location and because I like to patronize local mom & pop shops. I walk my dogs by the lake quite often and the cafe is dog friendly. They have a water dish outside for any pooches who want a drink of fresh water while their people have a cuppa outside on the patio. I soon found that I also really enjoy their fresh coffee and friendly personal service. You can't beat the location and atmosphere, by Frenchmans Bay and in the summer what a million dollar view down the street to the waterfront. I soon decided to give their lunches a try and really enjoy Carl's specials of the day - some of which his mom taught him to cook - Butter Chicken and Rice - yummo. Sometimes Carl tries out new dishes, so consider yourself lucky if you are a regular and are "volunteered" to taste test on one of those days. Sometimes Carl can have a bit of a heavy hand with the spices for my taste, but if I only wanted to eat what I cook, I'd stay at home. Besides, he keeps the sour cream handy for me on those days. I also like to take my laptop and work there if it's quiet enough, as they have wireless. Ida makes all the desserts herself, from scratch with the best and freshest ingredients she can find so sometimes they run out. Too bad, but call ahead and reserve a special dessert if you want a particular one, because it's not mass produced. I love to bake so really enjoy conversations with her about that and cookbooks when she is there and we have the time to talk. One night I was there for dinner and a fellow came in that was allergic to almost everything that most of us take for granted we can eat. He had heard from a friend of his that they like a challenge and are proud of providing individual service and like to feed customers who have food allergy issues. When I heard him tell them all he was allergic to - lots, and what he liked - not so much, I thought - good luck. They got to work and stepped up to the challenge. He liked his meal so much, he ordered a second helping. So if you go there and what you want is not on the menu, talk with them. They appreciate any customers who make polite, respectful, constructive requests and suggestions and I have seen them do their best to accomodate as they did for that fellow. What would I like to see them try? A daily lunch special with a small soup of the day, or a small salad or a half sandwich combo (so order any two of the three) for $10 or under and if you want a small dessert and a coffee for $5 or under. This would allow those who may not venture down to this beautiful area to eat, thinking it may be too expensive, to enjoy all it has to offer, on a budget or a fixed income. If you don't want to eat, the coffee is always fresh. As I've dined there, I've seen them making a new pot every few minutes for their eat-in or take out customers. As I mentioned, I have been a customer for about three years and this cafe and these people will always be special to me and my family because it is the place where my mom chose to have her last meal out before she passed away this spring. Ida and Carl learned of the stress our family was under due to our moms illness and hospitalization. They helped make and serve Christmas dinner for us and the hospital floor staff while we spent this past Christmas in the hospital with our mom. Both times mom ate as much as she could and enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks Ida and Carl and much success to you and Cafe Creme Brulee.
