Reviews of Yellow Cello Cafe & Pizza (Catering)

Kevin Gillett

Lobster pizza was good but pricey. Staff were very friendly.

tracey kavanaugh

Great atmosphere and food!

Marcus Vold

Gooooood pizza. ???? Not so happy about the waitress we got...

Julia Poelstra

The tomato basil soup was pasta sauce with dry buttered bread. The pizza crust is a burnt tortilla, meanwhile the toppings weren't even cooked. They messed up the one pizza order, but the second pizza they brought then had hot peppers, which weren't supposed to be in that pizza. Ate it anyway as it fell apart on us on account that is baked on a thin floppy/ burnt tortilla. Also, the free WiFi didn't work and wasn't working for the other patrons either. Two soups and two terrible pizza came to $50...

David Higgins

The service was amazing, the food was spectacular. We will be back for sure. Thank you so much.

Charlie ten Brinke

Great (dog friendly) spot to sit on the deck in the summer. Restaurant over looks the Bras D'or.

Lana Brown

Amazing home cooked meals!! Very delicious.

Chris Cocek

We had an enjoyable breakfast at the restaurant in early summer. Some kinks needed to be worked out for social distancing but sure they are in place now. Good service! Great French toast!! Want to come back to try the dogs!!

Mary Dobranic

Horrible...bad service...totally over priced....nachos were awful..worst we have ever had..was a small plate with cheese whiz and dried parsley. ..horrible..2 beers and nachos 25 bucks plus tip...for what .go to legion down the road n get a pitcher of beer for 13.50...service great..outside patio....view beautiful..that's the place to go????

Madelyn R

Cute decor, but not accommodating at all to vegetarians or vegans (literally meat in what was supposed to be plain cheese pizza and bacon in vegetarian salad). Food was cold, stale and not very good. Service was slow. Would not recommend

Michael Burns

Nice atmosphere, server was kind - but this is otherwise a tourist trap. Small portions, very high prices....maybe nice to come for a drink - but not a place to bring the family.

Kiran Neote

The service was great so was the staff, friendly, and caring. The food was very good and tasteful. Our server Kept checking on us. Thank you. We will see you again when we visit Cape Breton.

Rob S

Everything was OK. It could have easily been way better. Soup could have been way hotter. Hotdog was good but I'm pretty sure it was microwaved. Bread that came with soup may have been homemade, but was not fresh. Dishwasher should be checked. Cutlery and glasses were suspect.

Joan Babineau

Food was fine. But they had lost our order, so we had to reorder 50 minutes after we had ordered the first time. Spouse ordered over easy eggs, they weren't. Stuff like this happens, I assume it was a one time thing for them. They were nice enough to comp our drinks, juice and coffee. Because we had a 6 hour trip ahead of us, it was mildly irritating to wait the extra hour. May try them again next year.

curtis nickerson

???? great pizza

scott

Not great... sorry. Staff friendly though

Rob Quilty

Great breakfast with a great view. Nice place to stay as well.

Denise Poirier

I had gone when I was younger and remembered something not that great but went last month and it was amazing!! Great service, the staff was so friendly, great menu options especially for a vegetarian and great atmosphere! Food was amazing.

Robert Cullen

Amazing Canadian pizza with real bacon ???? slices and awesome customer service highly recommend

Steve Mitchell

We visit every year and enjoy it every time. Good food (get some oatcakes on the way out) and friendly staff.

Krista Whitehouse

Dropped in here on our way through Baddeck and decided to test them by ordering a donair pizza. We are happy to report that the donair pizza basically passed inspection and was a really good pizza, like in the traditional Halifax Donair sense. However, it was the greasiest pizza I have had in a long time. They must use a lot of oil. I've attached photos. Great atmosphere and ambience, and you can sit on the deck on the downtown street and look across to the waterfront. A beautiful location.

Denise Kathryn Lindsay

Tasty food. Quick service. Cool atmosphere.

Scott Haugh

Great little cafe! Super reasonable prices in a picturesque setting.

Gary Pearston

Loved it. Nice deck, great breakfast in Baddeck

Patrick Brend

The ambiance is cute and different from other places in town. Vibrant summer and cozy feels, however thats the only appealing thing about the place and the service is good... The food however... is a little less to be desired, the breakfast is okay, nothing special, the gourmet hotdog is dry and disappointing at least my order was, the pizza's are basic and the nachos is plain boring. I guess the foods are generally not bad but very forgettable. The quality can definitely improve because the place has its own appeal.

Crystal Brunk

Did some research to find a place open on the Cabot trail found this place and we were so excited until we pulled up and saw that it is closed, doesn't look like it's regularly open at all (10am on a Tuesday in October).

Michael F

Had 16” donair pizza. Thin crust, quality cheese, onions and tomatoes, with thin sliced donair meat on a bed of donair sauce. For me I like the chunkier meat but the pizza was pretty good. Extra chilli and Parmesan shakers given at the table. Super decent… price is normal. Fed 3 easily.

Danae Marquez Cruz

Quick, tasty and friendly!

Kevin Dunklee

Extremely friendly, with wonderful pizza!

Kiel Randor

Great Meatball sub!

Matt D

Delicious Donaire pizza and garlic fingers with bacon and onion with the sauce! Reasonably priced with nice views.

Alex Foxcroft

Good serving sizes, plenty of food to choose from. Pizza was decent, homemade. Rubarb crumble was excellent. A little slow on the service, and food could have been better. However, still one of the better choices in baddeck

Sean Williams

Good pizza close to the water.

Jecca Currie

The food was delicious. The decor was a bit dated.

Mitchell

Very friendly staff. Great breakfast and lunch food for a reasonable price. Definitely recommend stopping in for a bite to eat.

Troy Turple

A pleasant surprise off of the beaten path. Lots of food with great presentation. Hospitality and price are excellent. I was told their pizza is amazing.

Lisa Mac

Awful food. Even Worst service. Our server was rude, inattentive and not helpful. Won't be returning

Neda A

Ordered the chicken quesadilla. Surprisingly delicious and came with big helping of Caesar salad. Salad dressing was a bit too salty. Else good.

Squeezy Bob

Food was tasteless, poorly presented and overpriced. Waitress was totally unconcerned with providing anything but a minimal level of service. Eventually.

Hansyeb Song

Nice

Lori Kelly

Delicious!

leo boozan

Great pizza and subs well worth it

Daniel Vachon

Always a great meal served with a smile and comfortable atmosphere.

Stephen Gillard

Canadian Pizza was fabulous!!!!

Shelly Fraser

The name made us cautious, we're not artsy at all so it didn't make much sense. We decided to check out the menu after our hotel owner gave it a thumbs up. We are so glad we did. Very yummy and filling, would highly recommend giving it a try despite the odd name ????

Jimmy yediaz

Awesome place. Really nice.

SpVijay Rao

Great Breakfast. Nice view of Dock

Audi & Ken Abbott

Friendly staff and great food!

Kieran Twast

Good pizza nice place to stop on the way through

Zac Eisan

Food was tasted great the drinks were a bit pricey but overall great service.

Sarah Boutilier

Classy, cozy atmosphere with great food. I highly recommend the pizza.

Lucinda Forbes

Cool place.

Richard Herring

Always a great place with a friendly welcome

Doug Ivey

Some of the best for in town!

Alaina Zulli

Good food, aside from the very dry hashbrowns. The toast is very good. The waitress is friendly and attentive, and the dining area in the front near the road is a delightful sunny place to have breakfast.

Tara Deveaux

The service was not very prompt. Half of the food was soo soaked in grease we were dabbing it with napkins to soak it up. Also there is no sides with there sandwiches and server failed to inform us of this or offer us a side. Drink refills were also hard to get. ???? maybe they were just having an off day but I was not happy at all

Mike Bury

Service was good, outdoor patio was nice, but the food was average.

Oliver Johnston

Good food in a lovely and cheery restaurant. Friendly service, though a bit slow.

Brittany Richard

Such a warm friendly atmosphere, great good and great drinks! Spacious and vibrant a must go whenever you're in town!

T. Horn

Had the Jost Chardonnay along with fresh caught lobster pizza and Scottish Sundae (Scottish oatcakes, vanilla ice cream and butterscotch sauce) for dessert. We will definitely be back! Service is fabulous, and made for a very relaxing end to a perfect day in Cape Breton. Thanks Devon!

Marilyn Hay

Warm welcome and cheerful service, fun ambiance, and very good food!

Travis Mackenzie

Was seated and given menus. Waited 20 minutes but didn’t get any service so we got up, and went somewhere else.

Sandy Michalik

Hot out of the oven Great dough Parm and peppers to sprinkle

Shaun Langille

Stopped in for breakfast, asked if they had pancakes on their menu (prior to seeing a menu) waitress was very rude, she said no and walked away, so we left, and will not visit again...

Greg Wellman

Good

Damien REYMANN

Wonderful place, food really good

Ron

The waitress must be happy tourist season is about over but her happiness need not reflect in her attitude or service. The food was okay nothing special. I had the taco salad and it was like store bought tortilla chips with canned chili poured over. Pizza was good and caesar salad was fresh and crisp.

An D

This place is AWESOME! Everything -- from the yellow vibe, to the spectacular view, to the delicious food -- it's a must for anyone going to or travelling by Baddeck! Highly recommend!!! :)

Jamie Felsch

(Translated) Numbers times a million! Service was less than numbers. (Original) Nummers times a million! Service was less than nummers.

Sebastian Pierro

Got bit a bee dey didn't even have any epi pens

Drew

Not sure why everyone is complaining about presentation and quality of pasta; what did they expect from a quaint little family owned cafe in the tiny town of Baddeck??? Instagram quality food layouts? Decent food, great service and for a town with not much to choose from in the way of food, this isn't bad. Check out the pepperoni hot dog.

Heather Brekelmans

Beautiful view of the ocean, friendly service, cute decor, resonably priced. We had a wonderful visit.

Bruno Stevaux

Got the special lobster fettuccine, was delicious!

Robbie Key

Way overpriced. Food is awful. The expensive, terrible tasting coffee is not included. Avoid and thank me later.

Derrick Jamieson

Great Breakfast.

Connie Villagran

Breakfast was expensive & not worth the cost., over $31. Coffees, 2 eggs sausage/ham toast & the potatoes are extra. The menu said hash browns they were frozen little cubes that tasted refried. They were dry & horrible. The ham was thin sliced sandwich deli ham. Really. The waitress acted like she was fast (older woman) she acknowledged us said she would bring coffees, I thought maybe I had misunderstood because she took so long. I gave it 2 stars because the coffee toast & eggs were good. Nope not worth $31.

M T A

Not sure why this place doesn't run me the right way. Spaghetti sauce needs some work, and servers seemed to not know what to do with us on arrival (think it was a new waitress.) I'd give them one more shot, though. Just seems like it should be a great spot.

Allan Erkila

Very friendly people. Excellent food and fast service. We got there at closing time and were welcomed. Thank you.

Marco Morin

(Translated) Very good lunch (Original) Très bon déjeuner

Pamela OBrien

Ate here several time over a few days, both lunch and dinners. The service was always friendly and attentive, and we had a different server each time. Even when it was busy one night, the server checked with us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was good. We had some great salads, that were fresh and tasty. We also enjoyed the pizzas and pasta. They had many varieties of pizza and we tried both the white and wheat crusts. The wheat was surprisingl good. So often it can taste like cardboard, but this didn’t We always too full by the time dessert came around, so we passed. I would come here again.

Patrick et Francis

Had a very bad experience. Asked to a very nice waitress for a table on the terrace (only 1 was empty). She said ok and started cleaning the table for us while we were waiting. A few minutes later, when the table was almost ready, a man arrived and ran to the table and sitted. We’ve been asked to sit inside, we refused and the manager came to us. We asked her to move the man instead of moving us and she refused, saying the man has a disability, even if he was running. Moreover, her only proposition was to sit with that man! A place to definately ban because of the manager attitude.

Mark Janzen

We were looking forward to a nice pasta dinner on our family vacation. Unfortunately you won't find that at the Yellow Cello. Being a busy night we expected to have to wait for our food ,and we did but we didn't expect the poor quality of our meals. Of all the 3 different dinners ordered not one qualified as "food". Kraft dinner would have been better. The server we had on the patio would be recommended to find employment outside of the service industry as she should be working where she has no contact with the public. When we questioned our server regarding my wife's dinner not being as described on the menu , we were told they didn't have the ingredients offered but never said anything until we asked. Their offer to make things right was to take $2.00 off the $110.00 bill. I can't recommend this facility.

Bob Richards

Our group of 5 people enjoyed this quirky and cheerfully decorated restaurant thoroughly. Our orders were taken promptly by the friendly and efficient server. The order was delivered quickly and without error and the food was very good. There was no delay in getting the bills and checkout was smooth. Thanks very much for a great time!

JIm Gillis

good food plenty parking

Darlene Caron

June 29 5::15 pm. Seated quickly in enclosed deck. Kim,our server, gave us the specials and took our drink order. Lobster Fettucine was delicious as was the chicken quesadilla and house salad (greens were fresh and crispy). Service was quick and pleasant. Pricing for resortville was in line with standard canadian size meal. Menu should be updated to remove none offered cocktails.

Lee Willard

It's the best food,best desserts and best service ever.

Craig Perry

Very friendly staff. Thought it was just a pizza joint like it was years ago when I ate there. Boy was I surprised. Had a beautiful soup and sandwich. My wife had a taco salad. The salsa was the best I have ever tasted. I assume it was not bottled. It couldn't be, it was that good. Very nice place to enjoy lunch & a glass of vino.

perry romard

We went in for coffee and dessert and it was fantastic! Dark roast coffee, fudge brownie sundae, dark chocolate torte, carrot cake... all fabulous! Highly recommended!

Carl Pitcher

Just a few minutes off the TCH at Baddeck, NS. Fast and friendly service. Good menu. We had the seafood chowder and lobster roll. Excellent.

Maureen Green

Four of us had dinner there. Each and every meal was a disaster. Food was awful. Waitress was fine, girl who checked us out was nasty and ungrateful. The words "thank you" are not in her vocabulary. JUST NEVER EAT THERE, EVER!

Sandi Ziser

Hawaiian pizza was great, toppings came up to the edge, lots of cheese. But we were charged for soda refill which we didn't know until the bill came. Didn't appreciate that.

Carolyn Forrestall

Michele is an awesome host and the food is delicious

Laudav Hutcheon

Closed for the season

Knox Ephraim Scott

Excellent food

Marc Melanson

Grrat pizza, friendly and cold beer.

Sharron Davis

So good, we went for dinner and then breakfast the next day!

Fat But Fitish

Convenient location near waterfront. Food did the job. Service was under par for north america

Mike Garrett

Worst experience ever bad food bad wait staff just bad in general don't go here

Maggie McNeil

Looks can be deceiving. Menu looked and sounded good and cute decor. Waited almost 30 mins for a sandwich and salad. BLT was ok but bread was very hard. Asked for a side salad was given a full just romaine, onion, and cucumber with carrot. Had to go find the waitress to get our bill even though there were only 3 tables including us. For my sandwich, salad and pepsi the bill was $28! Do not recommended especially when there are so many other restaurants nearby.

Molly Cremo

Me and my 11month daughter were in area and decided to try their breakfast. Good service and friendly staff. Good breakfast too! Felt so welcomed here. loved it!

Brian Merrill

took a while to get service. eggs not cooked right

Sally King

Had lunch here the food was average nothing special. It had a good view of the marina. It was expensive for what you got.

Jade Ember

Nice atmosphere, good hosts and the pizza was delicious.

lakelin rudderham

Food was phenomenal and the staff were great, would recommend the pasta menue

Michel Maheu

Very good service, food not great.

Uthpala M

Very basic food

Ludovic P. Landry

Cool ambiance and delicious food!

kevin Campbell

Food was very good but the kitchen seemed slow.

Liane Maloney

Service was slow considering it wasn't that busy. Lobster linguine entree my husband had was good, but that was the only good part. I would have rated it a 1 if it wasn't for that. I had a Caesar salad which was beyond horrible!! Soggy old lettuce which was literally drowning in dressing. We ordered a 8" meat lovers pizza for our little guy which he barely ate...need I say more. Food quality definitely did not match the $$.

Dhvani Shah

their bread was soooo soft and that sub was too delish!! Loved it... highly recommend it to everyone visiting the area!

liz james

Convenient location, but not great value. Cardboard sticks instead of spoons, and the cake wasn't the freshest.

steve woods

Always wonderful food great wait staff

Michael Conway

Deluxe vegetarian was really good. Finished up in time for St. Michaels Parish Hall Celadih.

mario chartrand

(Translated) It was very good! (Original) C'était très bien!

Brenda Tharle

So pleasant and the food is great

Mike Holton

Nice place with good food.

Alexandria Beaton

Food was absolutely disgusting. We order wings, came out cold. The food wasn’t worth the price.

Bonnie Ivison

Food was fabulous. The staff very attentive.

Geoff Read

Good little pizza and pasta place in Baddeck. Good food at sensible prices. We ate 3 meals there, food and service were good although we had to request iced water. The apple crisp desert was delicious. Open from 8 to 8.

Mario Beaulieu

(Translated) very welcoming .... great food .... (Original) très accueillant....bonne bouffe....

Stephen Morrison

Decent atmosphere, half decent view, friendly wait staff but the taco salad I had wasn't great. Also, there's limited parking but it's not too hard to find a spot on the street.

L Tan

Food was great! Service was OK

Ellie MacDonald

Haven't eaten there since last summer and it was okay but nothing out of the ordinary.

W. Derek Mahoney

While driving back to Halifax, my family and I decided to stop here for a quick breakfast. The menu looked good and exactly what we wanted. We were seated and waited for 15 minutes and no one came to take as little as a drink order. Others were being served around us but we were left unattended. After 15 minutes we got up and left. They weren't even that busy. I won't ever come here in the future based off today's experience.

Veronika Skodje

Went on a Wednesday afternoon. One waitress working who was nice! Pretty empty. Took about 10 minutes for waitress to take our drink order after we sat down. We only ordered the hamburger nachos that came with a pile of nacho chips, with a handful of toppings on the top parts, and hardly any cheese. Over priced.

Amy MacLeod

Perfect.... As usual!

Gordon Raleigh

Loved it. Brilliant service. Cheery staff. Even on one of the hottest days of the year!

Skylar Burns

Pizza was great. Place stayed open so we could eat. Would eat here again

C. Markgraf

gary aucoin

Good food. Reasonable price. Friendly service.

Alex Loosdrecht

Terrible experience. Food was crappy.

Karen Jessome Marsh

Not the greatest service... Food was good

Jim Wallace

Decent restaurant. Good food, friendly service, skimpy wine list. Tourist oriented, I would say.

Eloi Gagne Lemieux

Ok place, only filter coffee, but the basic breakfast was good

Ferne Reeve

Terrific. Great food. Great atmosphere

Tabinda Khan

Chicken smells ugly in chicken pizza and crust was burnt, they should use grill for chicken not to boil it. Chicken smells likeots very old and precooked. Didn't like their food and expensive. Bathroom was crazy dirty but the staff was friendly and nice.

Rondise Watson

Tasty food and some unique items on menu.

Mark Elgar

Nice friendly place with good breakfast at a fair price.

Donna

Great food and atmosphere

Rahim Kassam

Passed by the yellow cello cafe on our way back from Cape Breton Highlands NP. Most establishments were closed when we arrived, so we checked out the yellow cello. Staff were friendly and the decor was vibrant. Soup was good, but unfortunately the Deluxe Vegetarian Pizza turned out to be soggy, so much so we decided not to take the leftovers. As such we could not give the yellow cello a better review. Hopefully better next time.

Ryan Drescher

Stopped for a late breakfast it was delicious and well priced also ordered some sandwiches to go for our beach picnic.

Melissa Coates

Do not recommend! Bacon was extremely salty, home fries were frost bitten, toast was cold and extremely hard...probably one of the worst breakfast places I’ve been to

Carol C.

Iced tea and dessert, special place. And quite delicious!

Paula Paul

Good food but portions not worth the price being charged.

Lyndsay

Nice spot with delicious garlic fingers

Sphutuma Inkosutshaneni

Lovely breakfast, great and friendly service. Coming back for sure!

Marc Cormier

Unreal! Did not expect a Buick-sized plate of nachos (LOADED with cheese). Very kind staff!!

Jacalyn Marie Brabbs

Food was ok. Drinks weak

Sandra Casey

Ice cream was lovely
