REVIEWS OF Mon Petit Choux IN Nanaimo

Nick LaGarde

One of our favorite places in Nanaimo for food. The bakery is excellent, especially the baguettes and croissants. Good all day breakfast menu. Get there in the morning for the croissants as they run out.

Barbora Kotenova

We had a very lovely experience this morning at Mon Petit Choux cafe in Nanaimo during our travels on Vancouver island. Amazing homemade nanaimo bar, was exactly what we were looking for. As well as the breakfast and fresh coffee. Excellent Service, lovely staff and an owner who provided us with a complimentary artisan baguette. Thanks a lot team!???????? Group from Czech.

Debbie & Darwin Mickleborough

Good food good service. Will return.

Leandra Roth

Underwhelming. :( Sat down for table service, ended up requesting it after 10 minutes of no acknowledgement. Got the Benny Croissant and it tasted like I made it myself, lacking any love. "Housemade" ketchup tasted like a can of pureed tomatoes. No one was kind or attentative. A little old lady asked for a glass of water and the waiter pointed to the broken down water station up a set of stairs. Literally 4 tables to "serve" and no rush in sight. Gross.

Best food in nanaimo and best value too! We are so fortunate to have a cafe like this in Nanaimo.

I would include photos but the food didn't last that long. From the amicable waitress to the heartwarming hot chocolate this place feels homey and good. We ordered french toast, eggs benny, and side bacon. The quality of the food stands out amongst similar establishments in Nanaimo in regards to food most especially. Kudos to Mon Petit Choux for their stellar restaurant.

Darren Brown

Super service a great Americano and Nanaimo bar was fresh. Highly recommended

Eric Little

Excellent breakfast in a relaxed atmosphere, a little taste of Paris on the island

A bakery & restaurant with a beer and wine license, and the best of all they use real cream and butter in all of their pastries!

Really poor service, and poor selection.

Philippe Topdjian

In town for a week and had to stop in for breakfast a second time. Their breakfasts are decadent and their pastries are to drool over. We had Nanaimo bars every day for a week at a different places and nothing beat the Nanaimo bars from this bakery!

Josh

Their Roast Beef Sandwich is sooo good!

Timbo Alogo

Delicious croque madam, and a great selection of pastries

Karai Cooper

Tiny, run down diner in Nanaimo. Have the crepes, they are delish.

Like the place, not far from where I live and parking is plenty If you got there earlier in the day.

Greg Bem

Really cute cafe downtown that has a pretty good selection of breakfast options, and really delightful staff.

Busy but fun, the Red Fife wheat bread is delicious

Holy cow that coffee. That was amazing coffee. Stopped in for breakfast and loved it.. Nice homemade French food. And the bakery they have looked amazing!

Frederic Proulx

Restaurant/bakery with a casual atmosphere. The food was excellent.

Sarah Taylor

Delicious!

Peter Broda

Not to be missed if you're in the Namaimo area. The americano was rich and tasty and the breakfast special (french toast topped with local tomatoes, peppers, and fried eggs) was a surprise hit considering its simplicity, but the showstopper was the fresh-made nanaimo bar. You'll never have a better one, hands down. Also grabbed a loaf of their focaccia to go, which was a nice treat on the drive out of town. Decor is intriguing and inviting as well. Superb all around.

Sonya Haffner

The quiche was just a little less firm than I prefer, but it was delicious! They did get my friend's order wrong and put something she was allergic to on the dish. Plus, there is a "wait on yourself" element. If you want water, get up and go get it. I also wasn't allowed ice with my water, but a different customer was given a glass full of ice, so maybe it was just me? Regardless, the atmosphere is super cute, it's in a great location, the coffee is yummy, and the food is good.

Teresa Waters

Love the food, restaurant layout is very good for conversations, and the service is really good.

Amazing food and bakery

The food is usually top notch, the croissants are the best in town. Service is slow but worth the wait.

Jay

Great food and nice price!

Glenn Wood

Minimalist, french inspired food and drinks. Great tea and coffee. Their baguette and preserves is to die for. Hard to beat!

Patricia Dol

Delicious food at reasonable prices. Everything was fresh!

K C

Most disorganized restaurant. We were the very first customers in and for some reason they "ran" out of home fries, so we got half our order and the waiter didn't even bother to tell us. He just brought our plates out. We ate our food because he was no where to be seen. When he finally came around I asked for some more coffee, he said, "it'll probably be a while"... and of course he never came around. We asked for a chocolate milk and he never brought it. Then we had to wait at the counter for half an hour just to pay. The guy workers were super unprofessional and emotional. The one was slamming doors because our waiter (the bearded tall guy) stole the Nanaimo bar that he already plated. This place was horrible! P.S we were excited to try the desserts and, of course, those were a huge disappointment as well. Don't waste your time going here.

Percy H.

Came in on Sunday morning, expecting a nice brunch, based on the reviews we've read online. We were seated right away, but the service was extremely disorganized. It took close to 10 minutes for anyone to give us a menu. When our coffee arrived, it was not great, had an overall sour taste. I asked for sugar when our coffee arrived but eventually after waiting for almost 10 minutes, we just walked to the front counter to get it ourselves. We waited some more for the waitress to finally come take our order. While the food arrived relatively quickly (compared to the rest of our visit), everything looked a little sad and the roasted potatoes also had a sour taste. If you like ketchup with your hashbrown or potatoes, forget about it, apparently they don't have ketchup here. Not once did our original waitress come back to check on us. In fact, the only time she ever came by the table was to take our order. I cannot recommend Mon Petit Choux based on our visit and I would not consider coming again to see if they do any better. There any many other restaurants and cafes in Nanaimo that I would rather try out then to give Mon Petit Choux a second chance.

Donald Klassen

Great breakfast

Ryan Davis

Mark Cameron

What an absolutely delightful experience. The staff were all so cheerful and warm. I had the ham and cheese croissant which was incredible, a fruit cup that was all hand cut fresh, and a double espresso that would kickstart anyone. The ambiance is that of a small vintage style coffee house like you might see in Paris, lots of plants and lovely decor. We finished our lunch off by sampling a few of their many flavours of macaroons, they melt in your mouth. I would absolutely insist anyone visiting downtown Nanaimo stops here.... even if they are local.

Sabina M.-Swan

Yummy! We always have the Chicken pot pie with greens because it is sooo good. But today we also added a dessert to make the meal complete.

Ian Murray

Very disappointed. I was looking forward to having the french toast for breakfast. Most of the wait staff seemed unfriendly., and it took 10 minutes for someone to come and take my order. The French toast didn’t seemed uncooked and with no egg. Basically just some doughy pieces of bread with maple syrup on it. Awful. I won’t go back.

Bill Sims

One of my favourite places for a delicious lunch and a sweet treat.

Kailey O'Farrell

Glynis O'Shea

Very good latte

Paris Swinton

This place is next level in reguard to freshness, flavour, and quality. We tried the chicken sandwich and something that I cannot for the life of me remember the name of, but it was essentially an eggs benny made on a savory French toast with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and ham, topped with hollandaise sauce. Both were so good we raved about them for the rest of the day! It was very very busy inside, but it's so worth it to wait in the line up for an amazing lunch!

Lisa Buysse

Amazing food and pastry

Betsy Chan

Pleasant service and delicious food. I was too full and didn't have room for the baked goods. Will come back next time????

How do you run out of hash browns at 10 am?

Change in ownership; quality of food, coffee, and service remain good.

We had an excellent brunch at Mon Petit Choux. If you're from Toronto, you'll discover that this bakery is a cousin to Bonjour Brioche.

Julian Worker

This is a lovely place for breakfast or brunch or lunch. Mon Petit Choux has a choice of sandwiches and Eggs Benedict dishes and I appreciated the vegetarian option with a side order of hashbrowns.

Had a great breakfast with a ham and cheese croissant and a cup of tea. Service is friendly.

Joanna Nitschke

Nadine Shemilt

French bakery and coffee shop, good food, smaller portions but tasty, and great coffee.

Albert Luk

Ham and cheese croissant with a red eye coffee. Coffee came right away but they forgot the food order. Eventually waitress came by to check on us but that was after a considerable wait and other tables got their food. The croissant was good but not sure if it was worth $7. Good atmosphere, questionable service.

Anne Taylor

Matthew Hamilton

Wonderful little place! Felt very local and quaint, the interior was cosy too. I also agree with the reviews, the Nanaimo bar is great! Will definitely go again if I head back that way. My server was very lovely too ???? Thanks guys!

very good and very nice place

Granden and Myra Bertrand

Very quick and friendly service. Pastry were incredibly delicious, they were crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside for my Danish, and Myra chocolate croissant. Kidlette had a cinnaroll thingy....... amazing she says. Coffee is very good here. Yummy.

Lisa Mallet

Food and service are wonderful

Nancy Howse

Best cappucino and breakfast in town!

Sierra Pitt

We always make sure to stop here when we go to Tofino! Super yummy and good selection but as stated in other reviews it is a bit disorganized. If it weren’t for that I would give them 5 stars because their food really is so yummy! I wouldn’t let the service discourage you, just be aware because it is worth a little hassle for what you’re getting :)

Jansait Qughondouqa

A cozy atmosphere located in downtown nanaimo. Nice staff but also disorganized. I had roast beef sandwich (Almost $11) and it was really good. Enjoyed it to the last bit. Came with a tiny salad next to it but didn’t know where to get a fork from and wasn’t served one. Chocolate milk was really bad. Neither myself or my little daughter could drink it. Also it was served full to the top of the cup with a drip of milk on the plastic cup. Staff were nice but disorganized and kinda clueless. Everyone is doing everything. I was seated and two of them had to tell me the soup of the day and any specials on different timings. When I was done, I asked for a Nanaimo bar to go but it was already finished and the waitress didn’t even bother to get back to tell me I found out when I was about to pay and had to ask the cashier.

Mike Roze

Excellent Nanaimo Bars (they happen to be gluten free).

Best experience at a restaurant and the food is amazing.

Leilani Graham

We came in for take out coffees and were lured in by the beautiful baked goods. We ordered five different pastries and a croissant breakfast sandwich. Every item was AMAZING. This is likely the best bakery I have experienced. (Sorry France, #notsorry) Thank you to the owner for NOT refrigerating the baked goods (a mistake that many establishments make, which in my opinion ruins them) Stop by at least once, you will be hooked, we are!

Anne Grindl

Always a special treat! Love their sandwiches.

Melissa Vasey

Delicious desserts and yummy lattes! Their croissants are amazing too. Love the breakfast croissant and their macarons.

Tony Williams

What a disheartening experience this was. My colleagues and I went to this restaurant for lunch and I was disgusting by the statements during my meal. The female serving my colleagues and I asked about my sports interests to which I stated I enjoy hockey, at my horror she responded "We sure turned you into a real Canadian." As the only colored person at the table I was utterly shocked and appalled by this statement. I am Canadian by birth and I don't need to enjoy typical Canadian hobbies to be considered a Canadian. What a backwards and narrow minded view; I feel sorry for someone who doesn't see diversity and social acceptance as a positive that bridges us together as human beings. Absolutely sickened by this experience and will not be returning.

Victoria Nisbet

Little hard to get served but the quality of the Nanaimo bar definitely makes up for it! Even tried a seasonal pumpkin spice one, delicious.

TheRattleShark

Cute place with decent food. A little hipster for my tastes but I liked it for breaky.

Wonderful. Coffee is amazing, pastries and other food is absolutely marvelous. It feels like a piece of France.

Casey DuBose

Breakfast for 5 this morning Amazing service and meals were even better. Highly recommend this restaurant

Rahim

The name of the place is French but didn't really have lots of French bakery except for the baguette and croissant. I ordered a mocha... it was sweet at the bottom but no sweetness at the top at all. Also ordered chocolate croissant... I liked it. For a French name I would like to expect more French pastry and bakery.

Postelsia

I have been coming here for over a decade whenever I pass through Nanaimo. Linda really cares about the quality of the food and has maintained high standards through the years. Excellent bread, gourmet sandwiches, pastries and baked goods. Everything is made with love and care. The treats are creative and tasty without being too sweet. I love the new almond/brown butter tart invention!

Anita Büchert Roy Naimi

Nice place, cosy. A little pricey if you're on a budget but nice place to have coffee.

Sherelle “Colourless-Blue”

I come here every time I visit Nanaimo. It is always so friendly and the food is always amazing.

Ghabe Bossin

This place is lovely. Linda (the owner) is very friendly and treats everyone like family. I used to live in Nanaimo and went there often for a quick bite on my lunch break. Now I make a point of visiting every time I'm back in town. I have had lots of yummy baked goods, treats, and breads. Thier sit down food menu is also stellar, I love their smoked salmon and eggs dish, I get it almost every time. The feel of the place is spacious, airy, and open. It's also got patio seating in the warmer months. 11/10!

Jeremy Barrett

Mirjana Vujkov

Sean Maguire

Great little place. I highly recommend the smoked salmon on scrambled eggs. I never realized how good those two taste together. Very friendly staff.

Jocelyn Maffin

I really enjoyed my brunch at Mon Petit Chou - I had a really interesting french dish I'd never heard of and enjoyed so much I can't remember what it was! The ambience was great, it was a nice place to sit and enjoy coffee and a nice meal over a good conversation. Access is a little awkward for wheelchairs but it is there! enter through the pointy end of the restaurant, on the lower level.

Jeffrey Osier-Mixon

The pastries here are epic. Go eat them.

Hillary Thow

They have delicious Nanaimo bars and even Vegan brownies! So wonderful!

Marysa Curtis

Jennifer Kennedy

Rated one of the number one places to have a Nanaimo bar in Nanaimo so as a tourist we were interested.. We arrived at 3:30 and they close at 4:00. The display case was empty and the male server was not really accommodating- When we asked if there were any Nanaimo bars available, his response was well I guess I could get you a frozen one. It was very off putting. Try the Red bakery across the street.

Candice Tang

Good food. Delicious.

Samantha Mather

Donald Yapp (Hungry Ghost)

Good breakfast options. Fairly reasonable prices. The kitchen and dining area are shared so your clothes are suffused with the smell of cooking. Coffee is strong and back. Wait service somewhat unpolished although they mean well. The roasted tomatoes were a stand out.

Catherine Hutchens

Absolutely loved it! The croque madame was outstanding and the atmosphere was so lovely!

Phack 'Pak' Narlin

Steven Jenkins

We stopped here for some treats. They kindly gave us some treats. We ate those treats. They were delicious. FIVE STARS!

Moe Abushawish

The waitresses were literally arguing in front of us (one told the other that she "does all the work around here", while another complained with attitude to some customers next to us that "the other server is a new girl and she should have taken your menus away"). Felt neglected right from the time we entered (no sign to seat ourselves and no one to welcome us in, we got passed by several times by so-called mentioned "new girl", until we were able to catch her attention to ask if she should seat ourselves). Won't even mention the fact that the toilet paper is missing in the washroom, horrible slow service, ask 3+ time for the pleasure to get a coffee refill... all service issues. The food was great, so props to the chefs and cooks, but service ruined the experience. To the owner, I recommend you search the word "service" or "servers" in these reviews and see that this is a reoccurring issue, you have amazing potential here, just overhaul your serving crew.

Samjo

Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. I ate here the roast beef in a baguette. It came with a gravy dipping sauce. I enjoyed it. I also ordered a side of hash brown but I didnt like the herbs used because it was too strong. Drip coffee was decent, some medium roast.

Richard Jamieson

Simply great food

Flor Garcia

Delicious baguettes. If you are looking for a light breakfast or dinner, this is the place.

Sharon Pollock

Rachel Capon

Always always alwasy THE BEST

Princess BT

Great food and coffee, lovely staff. Can't wait to visit again

Sarah Boaz

I wish I read reviews before I went. Waited in a short line for 20 minutes, since there is not one person directly managing the till. Was told I shouldn't have waited in line to be served at a table... Did not see any signage to tell me this. Was treated rudely by the barista/person at till for waiting in line. Had to ask about our Americanos since they forgot about them. No manners from any of the staff, and felt like I was more of a hassle to them.

Alex Soldatov

Excellent service and breakfast. Everything made from scratch and you can taste how good it is. Owner is lovey and bubbly. A must go if you are in town

I had glass in my food. It was absolutely delicious, seriously I'm in culinary industry and the chicken pot pie is phenomenal, service is amazing. Glass gives extra flavor. I highly recommend eating here.

Andrew Le Patourel

Fantastic spot for breakfast or lunch, the coffee is good the food is well made and the bread is delicious. My wife (who lived in France for a bit and adopted some of their delight in good bread) will often pick up a baguette after we get a meal here, its our favourite spot to stop when we come through Nanaimo.

Gabriel Bauman

Quirky. Breakfasts are tasty but portions aren't huge. Great bread! Service can be hit or miss; on busy days expect to wait. No high chairs for younger kids. Booster seats available. Overall a nice place to sit and have a conversation over a meal or a treat. Bring a little patience and expect to enjoy your visit.

The Simmering Pot

Good pastries. Would definitely come back to try more of the baked goods.

Diane Northway

A great coffee house/bakery. Delicious baked goods. Great coffee Low sound level. Nice location. One star off for selling out of best items early. So, get there early. The cinnamon bun made out of croissant dough is outstanding.

This is one of my favorite places to get special "treats" in Nanaimo, they make beautiful pastries and deserts, we often take the deserts "to go" and enjoy eating them on the beach. I love the coffee's too! Warm & friendly atmosphere.

Steve Jeon

Didn't try the breakfast. I'm sure they are great, but the bakeries were sub par. The chocolate croissants and the baguette were kind of stale and cold.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere in here, it was cute and quaint like you were stepping into a foreign place...then i was reminded that we were in the city as parking was a bit of a pain. Be sure to stop in though eapeically for lunch. Service was fast, staff friendly and food delicious the vegetarian sandwhich was my favorite, my son had the ham and cheese on brioche was rich and satisfying. Of course you need to try a nanaimo bar and wont leave disappointed by its sweet yet lighter taste then other bakeries versions

So many house made dishes and ingredients! They do it right here. I wish the outdoor seating had more shade but some days are pretty windy here so maybe that's not always practical. The pastries are all done very nicely. Sometimes the sandwiches feel heavy on the bread but that's good bread and maybe just a difference in preference for me. Overall, great spot that's in a great spot! Some of the employees are very fun an engaging or just laid back. The place definitely has personality. It's one of the places I'd suggest anyone go if they're looking to try a Nanaimo bar! Just maybe get it with an iced coffee if it's a hot day. A hot one if it's cold, feel me? Their dishes and pastries are well flavored. Portions aren't too big but that's kinda expected at this cafe type place and you wouldn't feel it's overpriced for the quality and how in house it all is.

Best Nanaimo Bar, ever.

Kyle Warkentin

The best Nanaimo bars and coffee around! Loved this little spot in downtown Nanaimo- I searched best Nanaimo bars on google and was pleasantly surprised when I tasted these with my mom and grandma! Well done!

Bobbi Jo

Best Nanaimo bar I've ever had! Not overly sweet like most. A definite must have when in Nanaimo!

Natalie Edwards

We were passing through Nanaimo and decided to stop here for a coffee and a snack. When we walked up to the counter we were greeted and asked what we would like, and if we would be taking our orders to eat there or to go. We asked some questions about our options and as we were deciding, suddenly the woman behind the counter informed us that, actually, we can't order anything because they would be closing in 12 minutes. The kitchen was already closed. So... Why not tell us that when we entered instead of wasting our time? We weren't even able to just order coffees. Needless to say we were not impressed with the service.

Francesca Murray

Yummy food, excellent service, best bread ever.

Sabina Bashir

Wonderful place for coffee and some sweets! Hands down the best Nanaimo bar we've ever tried! Would definitely recommend this place!

Douglas Cross

Paul Hughes

What a gem of a coffee house this was, great coffee, pastries and atmosphere. The only problem I had was parking, but that of course is not their fault. You can never go wrong with indie coffee houses.

Ziyaad Kanjee

Very poor customer service , store manager was not very accomodating . Overall really poor experience and would not recommend it until staff ammend there mood when engaging with customers. Waitress was really pleasant.

Philip G

Killer crepes and super crunch baguettes.

THE cafe and bakery in Nanaimo. It has great coffee and excellent eggs benny. Sets you up for the day no doubt. The fruit is a nice touch and it’s friendly staff are a blessing. Hugs included. A great little place to get brunch and coffee.

Shahab Seyedi

Very good coffee shop. They have a good selection of very light menu items. Good place for a nice breakfast or a light lunch. Staff is very friendly and service is done well.

Wow!

A perfect date spot. Met the woman I love here for my first date, and have loved the delicious coffee, phenomenal food, and wonderful atmosphere ever since. A cafe always hosting good conversation, beautiful reunions, and delightful people.

Trevor Schellenberg

Wow yes! Called ahead because apparently the 27th of December is a town-wide holiday for bakeries and was greeted by the nicest lady! Got there 10 minutes later and had the most pleasant conversation while simply ordering some Nanaimo bars. Thank you for the amazing service! From the two "Eastern European Hockey players"!

Amazing service. Great food and in a quaint neighbourhood

Chantal Steller (VioletScout)

Best Nanaimo bar! And the lunch was pretty great too!

Ilya Konstantinov

Hearty service and flawless breakfast dishes. I had the Croque Madame, my friend had salmon on scrambled eggs. We came back a day later: he had a French toast, while I had a roast beef sandwich. Both times were highly satisfying.

Susan Stansfield

Sabrina Friend

Delicious coffee, French toast made of yesterday's breakfast pastries formed into a loaf. Super service and pleasant atmosphere. I'd go back.

Amanda Breitkreutz

Very friendly service, fantastic quality food and very reasonably priced. Definitely will be going there next time I go through Nanaimo.

Emily Ure

Such a charming place. Peaceful surrounding and delicious bakes and chai latte :)

Fun little breakfast place and cafe in downtown Nanaimo!

Pamela Jones

This place is amazing!! Super friendly and really nice food. The food is beautiful and light — not feeling so heavy afterwards. I sat outside with my doggie and they were very kind to her too. The patio is nice to enjoy the Nanaimo downtown area.

Melanie Loureiro

Susan Banjavich

Always delicious and a conscientious staff. One doesn't work without the other.

Dawn

The food was very good. My daughter had the French toast and we had a sandwich each... The well sourced, local, fresh and often organic ingredients along with the care and attention of the people preparing the food was excellent. But, our wait time was terrible and the service staff were mostly miserable and unhelpful. We were glad that the food was as good as it was, once it finally arrived.

diane p

Great soy hot chocolate, loved the eggs and bacon. Bread was very yummy with whipped butter. Granola with fresh fruits and honey was also delicious!

A great breakfast on the sidewalk patio. Eggs and salmon! Yummy!!

Alessandro Iachelli

Best to avoid this place when it's very busy. Unable to handle small groups of 6-8. Slightly overpriced. One friend found a hair in her food. The other friend got under cooked meat. However, they compensated with not charging them for their food and gave them each a bag of cookies.

Pam K

Pain au chocolat--sooo delicieux! Coffee good, too. Definitely stop here.

Our favourite cafe to eat lunch at. Amazing french bakery, and nice coffee. Lovely atmosphere.

The food was so good we came back just 3 days later before we caught the ferry home. The owner is super friendly. The bread is so amazing we bought a couple loaves to bring home. Everything is freshly made in house and organic - you can totally tell. Even the coffee is better here ????

Scott Cadwell

Great Food. Had eggs Benny and the breakfast sandwich. Both had croissants that were amazing. Staff was great too. All and all great experience.

Vianeey Adame

My partner and I were visiting from Ottawa and were really excited to visit Nanaimo and try a Nanaimo bar. We were happy to come across this cute cafe but once we stepped inside, we were quickly let down. We stood there for a good 5 minutes wondering if we were going to be seated (a waitress passed us quite a few times) until we finally had to ask for a table. Once we were seated, we still had hope for this place since it has a high rating. The food was delicious, but the service was horrible. The waiting time is ridiculous and the waitresses are not very friendly or attentive. You need to wave them down and repeat your order once or twice to get anything, like a coffee refill. Overall, really great food but terrible service.

Bram Dams

Valerie Capewell

This place is great! First of all, the owner Linda runs a fantastic business. That is obvious by the number of regulars and newbies and as well the staff who have been there for a long time. Second of all, the space is full of light and comfortable. Third. The staff really are great. Just relax and enjoy. If you are looking for a fast food experience go somewhere else. I am a regular. Always enjoy my experience. Enjoy great breakfasts and for lunch -- soup perfection (not flavoured with salt). There are a lot more adventurous classic french items on the menu. If you haven't been there a definite must try.

anne moore

Mon Petit Choux was recommended to us by one of the staff (a trained pastry chef) at our hotel in Nanaimo, and we were not disappointed. We had a few little deserts namely a Nanaimo bar and a chocolate caramel tart. They were very good and one of the best Nanaimo bars I've had. We were there before 10 and it was quiet. The service was good; however i would not recommend using their bathrooms. The overall atmosphere was trendy, relaxing and a bit Parisian. I would go again.

Olivia Brooke

Hey, this place has a nice, bright atmosphere inside, and an enjoyable, enclosed patio outside... The staff have always been kind. The decadent vegan brownie is super delicious and perfect to share with a friend. The vegetarian sandwich has a vegan option, but I think it would be better on a sourdough or rye sliced sandwich bread. The baguette is lovely, but I think too much bread in this case. A vegan aioli (almond, cashew, or "veganaise" based) and a bit more olive tapenade might help to bring in a bit more flavour. I've tried the vegetarian quiche before which I enjoyed... It is very nice to have vegan options, and I appreciate the effort. I will go again some time for the brownie and a tea. Thank-you. Cheers.

Very disappointed with the service particularly the grey haired male server who gave the impression he was unhappy in his role. When we asked for water he stated " you can go and get your own water" and pointed up the stairs-. We will not be back

I did park elsewhere ! But I did'nt Leave that day ! Please turn HEAT ON !! Thank you will be back !

Jess Bajar

Great staff and good food

Lavinia Martin

Lovely food and charming building. Would have given 5 stars but they were not at all busy but the kitchen took ages to produce our meals which were all varations of egg dishes. Waitress service was great.

Al Macleod

They make a good latte. Friendly staff.

Odette Orprecio Bay-asen

Ordered 3 tuna sandwiches and water for lunch. Water came right away but they forgot the food order. Eventually asked the waitress to check our order but have not made yet our sandwich yet been there 20 minutes of waiting, that was a considerable wait and other tables came later than us got their food. Willing to wait for our order to go but when waitress followed up our order, the chef said if they have any complaints they can cancel their order, so we cancelledour order since we have to be at the whale watching in few minutes. Good atmosphere, questionable service. Traveled from Vancouvee to try this place.

G ST

A four star restaurant, food was good, waitress was very friendly. BUT, I waited 35 minutes for my food. Did the cook go take a nap ????

Bill Neuman

Pamela Baird

Good coffee, pleasant staff, food ok but a bit pricey for what it is.

I haven't eaten there yet, but we have a Seer at the table and he says four stars. Will update tomorrow after we try the nanaimos, if we can figure out when they're open. Speaking of which, could you please post your hours someplace? Cheers!

The best latte in town! Very similar to a European coffee. Tres bon!

Jay Daniel

Food is great. But a very unpleasant atmosphere. The staff are rude and passive aggressive. They don't do anything blatantly but they gossip, stare and judge everyone that comes in the door. Even the way they speak. They must think because they work at a semi upscale establishment that they are better than the rest of us...

We went in around 2pm to get some snacks and a Male cashier was extremely rude!! He got our order wrong so we asked for the correct item and offered to pay the difference, he turned to us extremely upset and began to yell at us. We wanted our money back after this experience bit decided just to leave and probably never come back here. He was extremely unprofessional and clearly hated his life. Please hire nicer people!

superhoser

Great coffee. They even pulled off a solid approximation of a cortado despite having never even heard of one. Service is super friendly and fast. Their Earl Grey chocolate mousse is ridiculous in the best way.

My favourite breakfast place in Nanaimo. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. A very cozy environment with great food and atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Great breakfast nook. Portions are realistic. Best experienced in the summer when you can eat outside. All food and pastries are made on-site.

François Olivier

Baked goods were good but service was extremely poor. Waited almost 20 minutes for 2 Americans after they were completely forgotten about. While I waited I saw food sit on the pass for almost 5 minutes before the cooks called for service so I can't imagine the guests receiving that were impressed with the temperature. With the options of cafes on this street I would definitely opt to go elsewhere.

Eggs Benny was fantastic! Long Americano was perfect ????

This was rated well but extremely awkward experience, it advertised iced coffee but the give it to you in a regular hot coffee cup with no straw or lid. So I had a normal hot coffee lid..weird to drink something with ice in it like that. I asked my kids to sit at an empty table while we decided whether we were going to stay or not and the waitress asked me at least 4 times in 5 minutes about whether we were staying. Mind you the cafe was 1/3 full. The regular coffee my cousins got was ok..the pastry selection was very limited.. Definitely not a place I would go again.

Gordon Brown

Excellent pastries and lunch menu.

Stuart Macdonald

Every visit to Nanaimo includes a stop here. Sometimes just coffee usually lunch. Food excellent, service usually very good, but sometimes a bit spotty. Staff's product knowledge usually good. Staff always friendly. Problem only once & next week when I returned she was gone. Best of all, other customers very friendly to outsiders. Love this shop.

Larry Freeman

Carol de la Haye

My long-time favourite place to eat in Nanaimo -- I only wish it were open for dinner, too! The atmosphere is warm and cozy and light-filled, the air scintillating with the many regulars' conversation, with the eclectic, mellow music almost subliminal, at times, a subtle, non-intrusive 'counterpoint' to conversation and eating -- all very welcoming. And 99% of the service is focused, warm and just attentive enough. And the food -- well! First of all, I seldom eat bread anymore, but this little bakery makes their own loaves with such deliciously chewy crusts that I, for one, can't possibly resist. Although I've tried many of their other dishes (all beautifully prepared and tasty), I seem to keep alternating, mostly, between the same two sandwiches: the Niçoise (tuna with capers), and the Roasted Vegetable. But then, the Roast Beef with Brie is awfully good, too...and the -- well, you get what I mean. Their deep, dark and handsome coffees smell seductive, and make you want to keep company with them more often than you might think wise.... And if you like sweets, their front pastry counter will beguile you with the modestly named Pecan Bar (try to resist ordering one again sometime once you've tried it!), the varied flaky pastries and petits gateaux (only a few of which I've tasted, but which look downright magical) and what I consider to be the definitively best Nanaimo Bar I've ever tasted: not too sweet, with a nutty base and velvet-like chocolate and custard bits -- I swoon just thinking of it. (They've often sold out of these by the time I think to ask for one, so I've taken to ordering it along with my main course). If I'm too full, or just don't feel like anything sweet right then and there, I occasionally take one of these treats home -- where the elegant little box winks at me every time I open the fridge door. I haven't lived in Nanaimo for over two years, but every few months I plan a pilgrimage around at least four fixed points of interest: my private/retired mechanic's expert ministrations to my aging Toyota, the pleasurable surprises to be excavated at both Well Read Books and Fascinating Rhythm, and the cozy delights of a leisurely meal amongst the frequenters of Mon Petit Choux. Why not give them a try; you may become one of them...

Note recent high reviews without text. They are bogus. The low service standards of this cafe make you wonder if staff is purposely running it into the ground. Dishes stacked up on the patio, older customers being treated poorly. A gong show.

Ruveen M

The ambiance at the cute corner located café is worth a visit. Down to earth vibe, indoor green plants and nice decor, amazing staff and clean washrooms. I was impressed by their brunch options. Recommend you check them out!

Sabina Howard

Awesome, European goodies

Carole Tootill

Simply the best breakfast and dessert specials in town along with a European setting and friendly servers. Completely home-made ingredients - no margarine or bad oils on the premises. A delicious freshly baked croissant with farm fresh scrambled eggs and a delicious latte in the morning of a scrumptious French pastry or baked treat with the same (or leaf tea) in the afternoon for $5 to $8. The experience can't be beat! I love this place.

We went twice to the restaurant Mon petit hoi . The food is not bad. We loved the quiche and the tomato pie. The pastries are good without being extraordinary. The price of bread is correct for a foreign country. On the other hand, we regret the quality of the service. You can offer smiles, but waitresses never give them back to you. They seem jaded to do this job and inspire no joy of living. The opposite total with the boss. It's a shame because there is no harmony in this place. Cleanliness also seems to limit us

Jeffrey Fung

Maddie Kasyan

Unfortunately not that impressed. First of all we arrived to an empty restaurant which slowly filled up, and we were the absolute last to receive our food (Eggs and croissant, eggs and French toast). My eggs were cold and barely cooked. The worst part of it was the French toast had ham and other items in it I was not expecting - I am a vegetarian and unfortunately cannot eat ham or I wouldn’t have ordered the menu item if the menu had stated that. I truly am a strong believer that you need to put all items and ingredients on the menu for situations such as allergies and instances with people such as myself. Sorry to say I won’t be back, perhaps their menu is better suited to others.

The home made soup is awesome

A lovely artisan cafe with a great selection of brunch/bistro items, delectable desserts and specialty bread to take home. It's a small slice of Paris where artists frequent and people-watching is plentiful.

Kirsten MacKinnon

Best nanaimo bars ever!

Craig Harris

My firned and I just had the most wonderful experience at this beautiful and welcoming restaurant. We had the Eggs Strata and it was perfection! If that wasn't enough the staff and restaurant personalized our experience with their passion to serve their customer and community with local, whole and organic food. Thanks again and don't miss out on this amazing culinary gem!

stephanie chevalier

Had a nice HUGE medium latte, and some bennies on a croissant. You can taste the local ingredients. Server was super nice and attentive.

very good!

Mayc340

Waited for an hour with no coffee refills while 4 waitresses were at the till gossiping. Had to flag down the bus girl for a refill. When we finally got food it was cold . Scrambled eggs weren't edible . I would not recommend this place till they fire all floor staff

Janet Hutson

Had a quick lunch with a group of friends. Food was good..but they were out of many things. A little pricey for what is offered. One strange complaint..a woman that works there got a little too familiar with one of our group. I'm sure she was just trying to be nice but made our friend very uncomfortable.

Gaiisi Vrugri

We ordered the vegetarian baguette sandwich, and the breakfast muesli. They don't have a kids menu but they were so accommodating basically telling us they would make up whatever we wanted for our son. We ordered scrambled eggs, a croissant, and a fruit cup which he loved. The veggie sandwich was flavourful.

Got a cappuccino and a nanaimo bar here. The nanaimo bar was the best I've had. The service was very nice and the place is very unique.

r

Service leaves a lot to be desired. Especially, the one male barista who is consistently rude & seems miserable all the time. It's like being served by the soup guy from Seinfeld. After about half a dozen visits.... I'm just going to stick with Red's across the street. At least there you're greeted with a smile.
