Reviews
I ordered the bison short rib and it was exceptional; perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and rich in flavour without feeling heavy. The escargot was also a standout: beautifully prepared, well-balanced, and so satisfying with the bread.
And the dessert… honestly delicious. The perfect way to finish the meal, indulgent, well-executed, and clearly made with care.
Our server was fantastic, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm. His service truly elevated the entire experience and made the evening feel special from start to finish.
From the food to the service and presentation, everything felt thoughtful and elevated. A great spot for a special night out or a relaxed, memorable meal. I’ll absolutely be back.
From the moment we entered, we were not greeted. The server avoided eye contact and made no effort to make us feel welcome. We seated ourselves, and I eventually ordered from the counter. I asked for a toasted croissant, and instead of being told that wasn’t possible, I overheard the microwave slamming open and shut from behind the makeshift kitchen wall. What came out was a soggy croissant on a plate covered in condensation. When I asked if it was toasted, the response was, “It’s warmed up.”
If warming something in a microwave is what’s offered, that should be made transparent upfront.
My grandmother doesn’t eat microwave food.
What struck me most was the stark contrast between the curated environment and the actual human experience. The café plays warm, culturally rich music like Vincent Garcia’s Dulcito e Coco, hangs beautiful art, and tries to create the feeling of an inclusive, global space—but that warmth isn’t extended to everyone. It felt performative. Like culture is being turned up for aesthetic value, while the actual presence of people from those cultures is met with silence, avoidance, or even discomfort.
At the end of our visit, I had to go up to the counter once again to request our bill.
I’ve traveled across the world, and this experience stands out as the most disappointing. Hospitality isn’t just about what’s on the walls or playing through the speakers—it’s about how people are treated when they walk through the door.
I had – and HIGHLY recommend – The Ratatouille Salad. Other people in our party had the Peddler Club and the daily Quiche. All delicious. And their HOUSE SALAD is light and super flavourful – dressed in a MAPLE TAHINI dressing.
It was EIGHT THUMBS UP.
Millbrook isn’t big, which makes it even more impressive that a place like the Peddler can survive. Be aware that it’s a small place and won’t feel like other big restaurants. But for what it is, it is very good. (Wagyu steak and black garlic creamed potatoes were excellent).
