The Simple Kitchen Canada

I’ve dropped in a few times for a coffee and a muffin or square and always been happy with my choices. Standouts are the americano which is excellent and the lemon square was tart and delicious!!

Fantastic Place - haven't been in person, but they're always so nice over the phone and patient with reading ingredients list. The cinnamon buns & croissants are crazy good. Highly recommend!!❤️

I do not leave reviews often but I went in for the first time yesterday. I got a veg panini which was so good I finished it in the parking lot! I also got a Swiss roll, lemon square, chocolate donut and a cream puff. Everything was so great it made me suspicious they were all gluten free! These were also not overly sweet which is sometimes the case with gluten free desserts. As someone with Celiac’s disease, it’s great to know I have the option to eat out. The staff was also very nice and the space looked clean. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

I stopped in to grab a hot drink while I was out for a walk this afternoon. It was my first time, so I asked what they would recommend. I ended up getting a cafe mocha which is what they suggested. Unfortunately it was barely warm, I couldn’t even finish it. It was disappointing, I wanted to love it as the service was warm and welcoming. I didn’t try anything else, but it looked like they had a nice selection of baked goods and some premade/pre packaged items. Maybe I’ll try something along those lines next time.

Honestly I really like this place but I have to give them less than 5 stars to hold them accountable for their food quality. Dining in is great, and usually when I’m walking around downtown, they’re one of the only places whose pastries and drinks I like. In terms of unique latte options, being one of the only places around that serves home made bone broth and has the kind of breakfast options for the price; they’ve kind of cornered the market in my opinion. That being said, if you’d like to try the food here, PLEASE DON’T ORDER TAKEOUT/Delivery. I ordered delivery this morning from them like I do for some bone broth, a latte and the avocado toast with scrambled eggs. I kid you not, everytime I order takeout from here my mind immediately says “I wonder what will go wrong with your order this time”. I’ve had hot drinks arrive cold, or not at all, complete parts of orders missing or also ice cold, and today I decided it would be my very last time because my avo toast came slathered with rotten avocado 🥴. Like I’m sorry, when you cut open an avocado and see it brown and stringy you’re just like “yup this is fine 🙂👍🏽”?!?!? It was so rancid it straight up Mike Tyson-ed me in the face the second I opened the container. I had to contact Skip, send photos and get a refund (won’t be the first time, but omfg it’ll be the last).

For places like this people don’t even try eating healthy when they’re out. We spent $50 on a depressing, bland panini and bowl. This was the first meal of our day and it was so bad it was offensive. I had to empty an entire packet of salt on my bowl to make it through the overcooked salmon with avocado and uncrushed walnuts they poorly threw on the bowl. Making an acceptable panini doesn’t require an advance level of skill but they found a way to make it as underwhelming as possible. It was absolutely flavorless, regardless of my husband’s efforts to make it better by adding chipotle mayo to it. Do yourself a favor and eat somewhere else, not even their pineapple and mango smoothie was up to the standard.

Underwhelming. Especially for the price at which these meals are priced at. It was a first time visit, and likely the last. We tried a roasted chicken panini, and built a bowl of salmon, walnuts, brown rice and avocados. Firstly, the store was out of tomatoes and cucumbers as ingredients for the salad bowl, I would think crucial items to keep stocked for salads in the spring. Next the walnuts were not crushed, as in the photo. The panini was completely bland, despite choosing to add spicy Chipotle sauce for an extra dollar charge. The roasted chicken was also very dry. All in all, underwhelming. Would not recommend for the price point. The only decent item was the mango smoothie. But again, a bit underwhelming for $12.

Grumpy server. Asked to make extra hot coffee, but it was barely hot. Sandwich was nothing but chicken, pesto and bread. Tasted stale and dry, had to throw in bin. The sweet potato brownie was dry, not at all tasty. A total waste of 35$. Didn’t even bothered to give a coffee lid or tray unless requested. Never going back again or will recommend to anyone.
