The waffles and pancakes were really good. I really don’t like runny eggs. When you walk in you stand on the line and then you order. Then you have to look for a seat. The place was packed. If you sit outside, it was really cold. The food came out pretty quick. The girl at the counter was really nice.

We had brunch at Esselon Café, and it’s easy to see why it’s such a local favorite. The place has a warm, welcoming vibe and a great outdoor seating area that’s perfect for a relaxed meal. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made, and the service was attentive without feeling rushed. A wonderful spot for brunch and definitely worth a visit.

I love this place! I have almost tried all their options for breakfast but I think smoked salmon benedict is the best you can go for!

Absolutely wonderful experience here earlier this week!
The space is genuinely beautiful and well-thought out. There was plenty of seating, and even though it was the middle of the lunch hour, it didn’t feel cramped.
Staff was pleasant and friendly when taking my order.
And the food was delicious! Very much worth the price. I ordered the gourmet cheeseburger. It was larger sized and cooked perfectly; very juicy but still well-done. The French fries were definitely homemade and had a good amount of seasoning.
This is a perfect spot if you are looking for a non-chain breakfast or lunch option in the area. Definitely recommend.

While the staff was pleasant, the gluten-free options were unremarkable, and portion sizes were perceived as small. Although some specials were satisfactory, a return visit is not anticipated.

Wonderful place to sit and enjoy breakfast or lunch. The crab cakes (not pictured) was flavorful and there were huge chunks of crab meat. The eggs Benedict and tomato bisque were delicious. Their latte specials are tasty too. Staff were friendly and speedy with service.

Perfect place for a simple but delicious lunch. The garden is an oasis. Surprisingly quick ordering and delivery on a busy August day. My grilled cheese was terrific.

Seen from the road, you might never guess at the delightful atmosphere both al fresco & inside the Esselon Cafe. A gem. We enjoyed lunch at an outdoor, shaded table for 5 of us. Fresh, delicious vituals expertly prepard and presented with simplicity.

We came here on a Sunday morning and it was very busy, leading to limited parking options. However, there was plenty of indoor, porch, and shaded outdoor seating options. The food and coffee were both very good! The waitresses were busy, but still smiling and helpful. It is a great atmosphere and place to eat. Highly recommend!

Their coffee is good, but they sell their bags of coffee for almost 3 dollars more then the local grocer, who stocks the exact same coffee (literally, Esselon). I went here solely because I figured the coffee was cheaper at the source. It’s not. This feels exploitative to me. I’ll be glad to change my review once this is properly addressed.
