REVIEWS OF Cafe Taiyaki 52 IN Halifax

Foad Makki

I've been more than satisfied every time I leave this place. I have been trying different items every time and I loved everything so far.

Kevin Chin

Tasty food and a great atmosphere. Excited to go back! Edit: went back recently for their seasonal turkey and stuffing taiyaki and it was amazing! If you get a chance, I'd highly recommend trying it. Edit 2: They have rewards cards now! And their apple chai cider is the true flavour of the fall season. Pumpkin spice who? I don't know her.

Jon P

I ordered a twist ice cream with blueberries at the bottom, $7.5 before tax, it was amazing! However, their service was not good enough -1.

Varun Sai Poluru

I have been to Taiyaki 52 twice now and both experiences were great. The pastry is made to order and warm when it arrives to your table. The price is fair and the coffee is great. The loose leaf teas are all amazing as well. This cafe is one of my new favourite spots and I will be back many times in the future. Updating this since it's been a while. I have been to Taiyaki52 too many times now to count over the past few years. They have only gotten better. Absolutely wonderful food, drinks, and people. I hope they continue their success and I'll be back often.

Eric Berry

Nice, quaint place to grab coffee and waffles. 10/10 cafe atmosphere 10/10 food quality & presentation 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Shawn Dorey

The lunch I had was unbelievably delicious and exactly what I was looking for! I had the tuna and kimchi hot sandwich and it was so satisfying. The coffee was delicious and it smelled absolutely mouth-watering in that restaurant the entire time! I highly recommend you try this place out!!

A neat idea. Coffe and desert place. My latte was pretty good and the taiyaki is delicious.

Icesis Silvermyste

Had lunch - never had anything quite like it - was awesome

Hanchester Zhulu

This is hands down one of the best restaurants in Halifax. The food is always top notch and the staff is beyond accommodating.

justine L

Great food for a very reasonable price! I love the vegetarian and vegan options as well. I've become a semi-regular orderer of the spinach and feta taiyaki and every time I have it seems better than the last. Also love the handwritten thank you notes when I get my order delivered :)

Titanius Anglesmith

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! They have Vegan options, they’re fast, they normally deliver exactly what you order and then some!

Tor Peters

Great little cafe. Best coffee and Italian soda on the block. Treats are delicious. Always make it a point to eat there.

Ella Kim

Cute little cafe on Brunswick street serving freshly made, piping hot taiyaki waffles. Loved the flavour of their sweet chilli Sauce. Nice place for breakfast, brunch or an afternoon snack. I'm going again for sure.

Tuan Dung Nguyen

A bit too sweet for me. But it was nice.

Andrei Paunescu

A cute cafe with friendly service and wifi! Ordered a taiyaki with matcha custard and an Italian soda. Waited less than 10 minutes for the taiyaki to be made, and it tasted great.

Jisan Ahmed

Loka “Lokapanda”

Great food! Thank you very much

AlienWitch

Very nice environment and great staff. Love coming here ✊

Brodus King

Nice store, and a very nicely made latte for me today. It was one of the better ones that I've had. The service was exceptionally good as well. I'll make a point to visit again when I'm back in town.

Nicole Paul

Novelty spot. Definitely worth a visit.

Victoria Goodwin

Cafe Taiyaki is the perfect date spot in Halifax. Their decor is cosy and bright, and the food is always delicious and comforting. The mini gangs also make it an excellent place to bring picky kids! A definite stop.

Sara Shabnam

It has been four months or so since we were last at Cafe Taiyaki. Walking up to the cafe the first thing we noticed were Christmas style lights draped across the windows and inside, gone was the crisp, clean, tidy Cafe Taiyaki we had come to know and expect. It appears the cafe is going in a new direction with everything from cupcakes, Italian soda, ice cream, pizza style pastry to public notices taped to the walls ...counters were cluttered. We were disappointed it has become just another common, independent coffee shop and not the destination coffee shop it was for us ... the coffee itself was fine.

Websy

Amazing food, staff and service!

El Weigt

delicious Taiyaki!! 5/5

Manikanth Reddy

This is bad café in Halifax i advice all the people don’t go to this Place

Jenny

Fresh, homemade, delicious food with a tranquil ambiance. The owner is usually in and knows us by name and we love introducing our friends to the snacks! They have wifi and a good selection of hot drinks, smoothies, and Italian soda.

ZapTanner 2005

I’ve had coffee and cake from lovely cafe taiyaki so many times and never been disappointed!! It’s always so tasty and packed with love!! The handwritten notes on take out makes it so personal and I love that they always pay extra attention to special requests!! If you can support a local business in these crazy times, please do it there!! :-)

Arwa AlSalem

Pretty good cafe

Rod Redden

Amazing atmosphere, lattes and food was spectacular! Waa my first time in and defiently not my last!

Josh Rimmer

Beyond delicious! Amazing drinks and food. Check the website to learn how to order, so you don't hold up the line. The icecream was such a fun suprise and so so so tasty! A very unique spot, so glad halifax has them.

Andrew

unique and delicious desserts with new choices every season.

Nisarg Gajjar

Great Taiyaki and drinks, for breakfast, lunch or snack

Syntyche Fountain

Really good place for breakfast and dessert

Gettin Tactical

Best taiyaki in town

Michael Moores

Excellent little cafe making Japanese sweets. Very nice staff and the Taiyaki, or Fish shaped pancakes are great

Rob Yuen

Amazing coffee and treats.. My sister celebrated her graduation with the Jaw Dropper and was very happy with the fish cone and red bean filling.. The staff were very nice and even gave her a takeout bag of mini gangs with matcha to go! Definitely recommend checking this cute clean spot out!

Melody

Got banana milk tea and it was delicious as always! Prompt service and very clean even thought they were extremely busy.

scott

10/10 would recommend

michael mackenzie

It was all the hype when it opened, but for the three times I've been there, I always have to wait 30 minutes+ for a smoothie, tayaki, or a slice of cake. There shouldn't be excuses for delays on food that are pre-made and on the shelf. The food there is pretty average, not worth the price for the stale, shriveled, and dry piece of pastry. And for a small cafe, it is surprisingly loud in there, the smoothie machine would kill my eardrums.

Lou Peterson

The taiyaki is so good, v perfect fit those who don't like overly sweet desserts

Taija Swanston

The food was absolutely delicious. Freshly made. Definitely a cafes in the area that i think is worth the price.

Chris Bolton

Bad stuff Bad service bad menu

Alexa Lam

Just wonderful. These guys have been treating me well with delivery, always leave cute notes, have never messed anything up, and their presentation is lovely.

Tim Speed

Nice dessert nice service :) beautiful place

Shaili Chauhan

Super tasty with lots of flavor choices, very nice atmosphere. Only complaint is that food was served individually but not a big deal.

Moira Valkerie

Such a cute cafe, the food and drinks are always great and the servers are very kind!

Jarek Strecko

Best breaky sandies in the city. Fish shaped waffle bread, egg, bacon, Japanese mayo, maple syrup. If this isn't heaven well, I don't know what is!

Omar S

I haven’t tried any of their other stuff, but if you are looking at their dessert menu and want to go in and order, be prepared for no less than 20 mins (if not more). This has happened a couple of times, there is usually 1-2 people working. Their food is great, selection is unique but it’s sort of pointless if you can’t get served.

melissalynn2010

Best ice cream I've ever had, HANDS DOWN! What a special place. ♡

Bobje

Cute little place in the middle of the city, with food absolutely to die for. Definitely a must have in anyone's inner city bucket list. Check it out!

Soleil Chahine

One of my favourite spots in the city! Consistent and delicious, and the friendliest service ever :).

Koda Johnson

Staff is very friendly and hard working, the cafe has good prices, and excellent taiyaki, the very short wait it well more than worth it!

Jordan Froese

So good!!! This place is amazing! Lots of delirious vegan options the Taiyaki desserts are so good!!

Josh Rooney

Superb atmosphere, lovely staff, and food so good you'll think you've died and gone to heaven. Theres no wrong order here, but the sweet and spicy pulled chicken sandwich may be the closest to nirvana you'll ever get. Plus, great vegan and gluten free options that actually taste amazing! Cannot reccomend enough. I'd give 100 stars if I could.

Dylan DeGrace

Warm little cafe offering delicious waffle dishes (with Gluten-free options, that are actually really really good!), amazing green tea, and fresh drip coffee. Not to mention some amazing ice cream options. Wi-Fi and washrooms available on site.

Michael Smith

I liked all the different choices of food and plan on going back. They had nice music.

Erika Smith

Love the food, ice cream & the T52 coffee

We had been seeing these pictures of fish shaped pastries everywhere and heard so many recommendations, so we decided to give them a try. We got a party pack of 18 mini gangs with three flavours, blue berry cream cheese, apple cinnamon and carmelized pineapple. Both the apple and pineapple fillings had ok flavour. The blueberry cream cheese was a bit disappointing as the filling in the center was non-existent besides a lite smear. The pastry dough was soft, but bland. The services was quick and polite. The cafe had an interesting vibe and unique decor. All in all cute cafe with unique vibe and product, but is a little disappointing in the flavour department.

Alex Paterson

Worst customer service I’ve experienced in Canada. This place needs to learn customer etiquettes for real.

Unique and great atmosphere

Lee Cripps

Food is great, affordably priced and the atmosphere is awesome! Definitely a unique food experience, would highly recommend!

James greene

Adorable little cafe with excellent food and drinks and nice staff

rachael lucas

Worst customer service ever. Waited for over half an hour for a simple coffee. When asked what’s taking so long, the server literally made a face and said well that’s what I’m working on now. Started making my coffee after half an hour I ordered and there were only 3 other customers who were there before us.

Casey Elford

Very clean and well managed

Tim Neuf

(Translated) The owner specializes in squid and a variety of fruits, chocolates and creams. I personally think that the chocolate sandwich is very delicious. The light-milk squid has a very fragrant meringue, with the mellow chocolate inside. I feel tired and lick the cream next to it. The cream is very good, I can see that it is just right because it is very malleable. This store seems to have a business scope that is partial to dessert but has a sandwich. The ingredients look very high, but the price of the squid that I ordered is not expensive. They also have a party size squid, which is a good dessert at the party. The storefront environment is also very good, and the light transmission is very good. Next time I have a chance to taste the squid and sandwich. Praise (Original) 这家店主打鲷鱼烧和各种水果,巧克力,奶油的搭配。个人觉得巧克力夹心的很好吃,淡奶味的鲷鱼烧有很香的酥皮,配上里面夹的醇厚的巧克力,觉得腻了就蘸一下旁边的奶油。奶油很好,看得出打的刚刚好,因为可塑性很高。这家店好像营业范围属于偏甜品但又有sandwich的那种,食材看起来颜值都非常高,但是我点的鲷鱼烧价格并不算贵。他们还有party size的鲷鱼烧,party的时候当个甜品很不错。店面环境也很好,透光性很好。下次有机会尝尝鲷鱼烧三明治。好评

Andrea Gracia

Amazing experience,great food made with love and passion.

Tonieshia White

Definitely a hidden gem!! I visited this place right when it first opened up a few years ago and it's been my favourite place to eat in the city ever since. This place is so cute and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The food is amazing! They offer both sweet and savory taiyaki so there's something for everyone. The people who work here are incredibly sweet and it's always a pleasure speaking with them whenever I come in. They're super helpful and don't mind explaining how ordering taiyaki works to newcomers. I highly recommend their banana milk tea!! They're also open for delivery on Ubereats!

Victor Dule

I have been here twice now, it is a gem! The coffee and desserts are delicious. Staff are very friendly and everything is decorated nicely. I would highly recommend!

Joseph Wan Cheol Kim

Cafe Taiyaki is by far one of my favorite places in the city! The staff has always been kind to me, and the service immaculate even if they're getting slammed. I'll admit that I mostly stick to the sweet side of the menu! Generally I'll crush a Naked duo (matcha and red bean for me. I know it's not for everyone, but I really really do suggest you try ref bean at least once) and an Americano. Of you're reading this in the summer, absolutely great yourself to some ice cream. You will not regret it. Still with an Americano though. Life is about balance.

André Desjardins

Delicious and unique dessert

Jiajia Sun

Really nice environment. But I didn’t really enjoyed the food. It’s way too sweet and for the filling, is just like jam instead of real red bean paste. But the food looks cute and the price was decent.

RadBecca P

Great food, coffee and atmosphere. Will definitely visit again!

Sam Williamson

Unique and delicious. Love the Jawdropper!

James Gauthier

Went here after wanting to try it for years. It was delicious. The service was amazing and I really enjoyed everything I had. I definitely recommend anyone to try this place!!! Definitely will be back

Dayun2

Very nice place to hang out with your friends

Reihane Yousefian

Such a wonderful cafe! A while back my husband and I placed an order to go a day or two before we needed! The website was easy to use and I love that you can pick your flavours! Everything was delicious and the customer service was wonderful from start to finish!

Zac Eisan

Really enjoyed this cafe. The staff were super friendly! The food is delicious here and I really like the options for drinks. It’s also a great place to study as it is usually not too busy, except around lunch time. Highly recommend trying this place out!

Graham Alexander

The wait is long but the food is really good

Shara O'Brien

They're lovely and delish

William DeWolfe

Andrea Rahal

Owner was very nice. The food was delicious. Really wish there was a place like in Los Angeles.

Gavin Wan

Simple but solid menu.

Cariane Parisien

Usually really good experiences, the Taiyaki are always tasty (I think that's what the fish are called) had the ham sandwich which was sort of messy as it's puffed pastery but decent. Otherwise a great place for lunch or coffee!!

Rhia Perkins

Really good

Rachael

I really enjoyed the small gangs!????

Iyame monroe

Fantastic eating experience.

Vaughn Pearson

Amazing food! Great atmosphere! Clean!

Bill Jethro Bagunu

Oh amazing! My favorite lunch spot downtown, with some great attention to detail.

Abby Surrette

Great customer service, super cute and well designed store, delicious food

Theo MacKenzie

Tasty espresso coffee, friendly staff, thoughtful and bright decor.

Brose Sun

A great nice spot either for an afternoon dessert break or for breakfast. The highlight is the variety of sweet and savoury Asian waffles (including gluten free waffles), and the assortment of gluten free muffins and delicious brownies. If you’re visiting the Citadel nearby pay Taiyaki a visit! It’s even worth the walk from the harbourfront.

Mark Lukabn (Weremark)

Qasem (Dr. Q)

My Girlfriend and I love this place! A bright beautiful cafe with an awesome menu and great prices. We keep coming back to work our way through the menu but my favourite is the ham and cheese savory with the amazing chili maple sauce. All of the above plus lovely staff make this our new favorite date spot and everybody should know about them!

bubblegum cutie

We ate from toronto. And we tried several fish cakr places. This place by far makes the best fish cake we have ever eaten. You can also choose from different flavor fillings

Garcia Family

Tasty as always, fab service. Forgot my bag last time i was in and they held onto it for me till i could get back

Pete York

The customer service here is really bad. I am still wondering how does a cafe take more than an hour to serve a coffee with no other customers to serve. One star is too much for these guys.

Loukas Crowther

Gigi

Super adorable place! They have some cute looking waffles and very tasty. Their drinks were tasty as well. It’s a great place for brunch.

Michael Pitt

Adorable place with great food. Would go again.

Dalia Perez

Daniel Man

Ricky Vienneau

I had never had Taiyaki and omigod it has such a great taste! I had the tofu and I'm looking forward to trying more! Great tables for studying. The girl who was working the cash was super friendly. It's in an unfortunate location as not many people wander by at that end of Brunswick but hopefully that won't be an issue for them in the end.

Crimson Alexander

super cute and clean place, friendly workers, unique and tasty food, will definitely be back!! :)

Best treats and eats on Brunswick ☆ close to NSCAD!

Loved it!! Very yummy! Definitely recommend going!!

Katie Billard

Cozy , bright , clean , yummy.

Matthew Alex

Stopped in for a coffee, got a nice latte quick very friendly staff and great atmosphere, the coffee was sweet smooth and slightly bold very pleasant to sip and inoffensive. I wish I grabbed a desert but it was close to closing and I didn’t want to intrude. Definitely a nice spot to stop.

R E

Delicious sweets and coffee and tea! Wonderful atmosphere and excellent service!

koyinsola

Great place. Nice atmosphere. Very friendly staff. If you are down on Brunswick Street and want a nice cup of Joe and a tasty taiyaki cake, this is a good place to go.

Viv Rmd

Taiyaki is delicious, but americano(ice) was the worst. Instant coffee? ????

Shannon Long

I had the apple cinnamon and the vanilla custard taiyaki and they were both super delicious

Jobin Basani

Very enjoyable. A pleasant atmosphere and helpful staff. Two taiyaki is a light snack for a couple or a good helping for an individual. Free WiFi is appreciated, but not a place to linger. A five to ten minute wait is the price for fresh Japanese pastry.

CJ Hirsch

Handmade deliciousness shaped like a fish, what more could you ask for? They came out toasty warm. Having never had Taiyaki before this was a really awesome first experience, I can't wait to have send explore more taiyaki in the future.

Joseph Jeong (정승우)

Great Ambience and food!

Tahira Tabassum

Perfect place to study and get some work done while having a delicious Chai latte and either a fish shaped sandwich or one of their amazing dessert options!

Zainab Al-Habibi

The staff are friendly & helpful whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth. The bright, airy space is calm & refreshing. It goes without saying the taiyaki is to die for; whether you're looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, have a savoury bite, or just get a jolt of caffeine they've got you covered.

Dylan Hynes

Seriously on a whole new level of bliss.. besides all the amazing regular desserts they have, they offer the most blissfully delicious vegan desserts I can not wait to go back ♡

Muns Masalmeh

Nice place to go for a tastey and delicious dessert. There are different varieties and vegan options, it is more pricey than average similar places. I love the atmosphere and the location near downtown, but it is harder to find a close parking spot. Children are welcome.

David

Great atmosphere, and delicious desserts! We got addicted to “ mini gangs” a while ago, tried it with nutella and red bean filling, both are good but Nutella filling is the best one for me. Tried the savory classic taiyaki with spinach and feta, and I wasn’t a big fan of it. I would definetely recommend to try mini gangs!!

Jordan Tully

Delicious food and a really charming atmosphere! Loved it!

okjo kim

We have only gone 3 times; but so far the food and the service have both been outstanding. Can't name a favorite yet, but evwrything I tried was great.

Sarah Nickerson

Sarah Putts

It was a great visit. They serve delicious Japanese pastries in a well kept and maintained environment. It was summer and we also tried their ice creams which were awesome. Highly recommended.

Dawood Alshammri

Their Mocha Ice drink is delicious!

SamuraiSquash

Great vegan options and nice ambiance!

Junseok Chae (Young)

Update: Limited non-pork options, but the original batter has pork ingredients. Check the menu well, and enjoy. Thanks to management and their media team!

Kendra Yurczyszyn

Good point: the taste was good Points to be improved: If the blind can block the sunlight from the hotel in front of cafe, it would be better.

Michelle Wallace

The decorations and atmosphere in this place are great. I didn't find many good food options.

Nefarious Ink

This is my favourite cafe in Halifax. The coffee is fantastic, and the taiyaki is awesome. The staff are very pleasant and helpful, and always make me feel welcome when they see me arrive. :)

Emma

Very minimalist themed cafe, clean and fresh

Carl Godfrey

Kind staff and pretty detailed menu without going overboard. We came here for the first time during the Dine Around Halifax event and we will definitely be returning!

Brynja Jennings

So far I tried their jaw dropper, mini gangs, summer ice tea, sticky taiyaki, matcha cake and pepperoni. I enjoyed the jaw dropper but I tasted way better japanese ice cream somewhere else. Sticky taiyaki is too sweet with the honey and too bland without. The pepperoni taste is identical to pizza pocket. The ice tea is pretty good. The matcha cake is alright. I think you pay for their location and presentation more than the quality and taste.

Sarah Dubeau

I went to try the fish waffle for Dine Around in February. I had it with red bean paste. It was pretty good. I also had a sandwich and a mango smoothie. I would love to visit here again.

A T

tried the taiyaki ice cream. a bit pricey but a fun novelty.

Collin Somerton

Great quality food and drinks at a very affordable price! Staff is very friendly, cute decor, great variety of menu items. I love that they have seasonal special drinks.

Kenneth Macmullen

The ice cream was not worth it

Rasha Al Hayaziey

The owner is the cutest and really sweet. Would give 1 million stars. Food is delicious, you can't go wrong!

Saholy Mevamanana

Anthony B.

Coffee was excellent and staff were very friendly.

Katie Dunford

Love this place, it's a delicious gem!!

Lacey Beers

I am in love with the interior of this cafe! It feels like something out of a trendy design magazine and makes for a chic spot to meet for coffee and muffins. The lattes and hot chocolate are some of the bests in the city and the owner is extremely kind and welcoming. While the food is a bit sweet for my tastes, my daughter absolutely loves the waffles and can vouch for their deliciousness.

Riley McLean

Amazing gluten free taiyaki & tea. Can't wait to return!

NiceWishes

The wait can be long but the foods always worth it.

Louis Chow

Nice place, delicious food, excellent experience.

Bethie Trahan

The ice was great, this place sells both sweet and savory items, the staff is very friendly. Their waffle cones (and other items) come in the shape of a fish, cute and delightful, definitely a must try.

Rita Udall Udall

(Translated) It's a Japanese cafe (Original) Es una cafetería japonesa

Jean-Guy Rivard

Yummy.

Robert Johnson

The matcha ice cream is to die for. The fish pasties are fine, but it does not seem like something I will want to eat often. The service is really friendly. Prices are on the higher side. Overall, it seems like a very niche spot, and if it is your thing, you'll like it!

Janet Kelley

I personally love taiyaki and I am not a huge fan of dessert in general but there is something special about eating a fish shaped waffle filled with red bean or something sweet. They are sweet but not too sweet. We had the Hot Chocolate, the Mini Gangs (with red bean and matcha custard filling)and the Jaw Dropper with their secret ice cream flavor (its black coconut and it's DELICIOUS!) They don't always have it so check before you go in. Service and cleanliness were both excellent. I loved their decor. Great place for a date.

V Sooke

Just incredible the maple cinnamon seed and blueberry and cream cheese crunchy were the best of the 8 filling and batter combinations I've tried so far

Jesse Debly

: ) Good food, good drinks and reasonably priced. I personally like the smoothies and sandwiches.

Melanie d'Entremont

Nice place to meetup and have a nice conversation. Pretty quite so I would say good place to read as well. They have their own unique menu and a few interesting fish shaped waffles.

Esron Blavinskij

Dennis Beauchamp

Really nice place for a coffee

Ley Young

Beautiful place, and amazing staff! The food and drinks look, smell and taste amazing! This is a must try place.

Ryan Domoslai

Very modern, cute cafe. Very good prices and the taiyaki is so good

Natasha LeBlanc

Amazing ???? yummy! ???? Fresh ????

mike eldridge

Great food. Great customer service and unique in halifax. I haven't tried their fish waffle ice cream but their fish waffle with stuffing is great. I tried chocolate flavour and it tasted like nutella and their blueberry tasted more like jam. I didn't like that one but matcha custard and vanilla custard tasted great. You also get option to make your fish waffle crispy but it tastes great as it is already. I would definitely recommend it to try this place out.

myungjae choi

The taiyaki's here are made to order so you'll need to wait a few minutes to receive them, but because of this, it's extremely crisp and fresh when you get it. Both time's I've been here, the red bean taiyaki has been excellent. The atmosphere of the cafe make's it a great place to hang out or to get some work done.

Lauren Crandall

Awesome service and love the German Chocolate Cake there!

Morgan M.

I loved my first visit to Cafe Taiyaki today, and from this experience I would highly recommend checking them out! I had the “Naked Duo” in Vegan Batter with Sweet Red Bean in one and Caramelized Pineapple in the other and could recommend both! I also had the savoury Sweet Chili Tofu and that was so good. I also had the Gingerbread Latte and it was yummy and beautiful too, and next time I’d just ask for a bit more of the syrup to make it more *spicy*. If you need somewhere to work on a laptop, the environment here is perfect as there’s outlets for your laptop, the environment is cozy, happy and clean, and the music they play is a mix of everything and was honestly 10/10. It had Tom Odell, Halsey, Ariana Grande, Olivia Rodrigo, Migos, Drake, amongst others and I brought headphones but tbh the playlist was so fire I didn’t need them.

Will Nickerson

I waited at the counter for my order to be taken for 15 minutes in an empty store. The employee working didnt even greet or acknowledge me. Ended up leaving and wasting my lunch break.

Sreejata Chatterjee

Delicious black coconut soft serve ❤️ this place apart from cute is super tasty!!!

jae Pasco

Nice little place with very good, unique food. Try their sandwiches.

Jeffrey Nichols

Our favourite dessert treat in Halifax. Get the jawbreaker (big ice cream cone shaped like a fish) with matcha ice cream and red bean filling. It’ll change your life. Not too sweet and good matcha flavour. Yum! Staff is friendly and fantastic too.

Megan O'Neil

Sooooo cute, so delicious. Love this place so much

Myranda Wagner-Keizer

Absolutely amazing cafe! Food and drinks are always spot on, the staff are fantastic and the atmosphere is amazing.

Delicious food, kind staff, beautiful food presentation :)

Matthew Bellefontaine

loved this place since the day they opened, such a fun café to live near . food is delicious.

K. STUBBERT

Service was fantastic, food was excellent! It's a cute place and we were very satisfied with everything. Will definitely be back.

Daoud Awadh

Skip this one. Their fish pastries might be cute but they are also tasteless .

alexandre

Food is ok. 3 employees behind the desk. Any customer to serve and in the place. 5 minutes before getting a quick “hi” without smile and being able to order. 20 minutes just to get a waffle and a coffee … coffee without the draws in the cream. Very unpleasant experience. That’s a pity because the waffle is ok. Ohhh … and no one in the 3 employees able to say “thank you and good bye”.

Daniel Lee

Discovered this place randomly while walking towards a brewery house. To be honest I really thought this was a Takoyaki House (Japanese Octopus Deep Fried Balls) but when I step inside, it seem to cute for it to be. Later on the day, gave it a second thought and I look them up to see the menu and little did I know it was a savoury / dessert place. I was kinda disappointed since I thought it was a takoyaki I was craving for some. BUT why not give this place a try. Came mid-afternoon for a snack and the interior is very modern and nice. Music was at a good level for having a conversation. They make all the Taiyaki’s to order so they were very fresh and piping hot. Their are multiple options for the fillings which was a nice change, but I had to get the OG flavour which was red bean. It was pretty good especially with the whip cream they provide for it. I regret not getting the Jaw Dropper which is the Taiyaki crust as a cone and either mango or matcha ice cream or even a twist. Next time when I venture the east coast definitely coming back to this place. Great work!

Laura Lewis

Neat concept but not worth it. The food was okay, if overpriced, but that is what you expect with a restaurant like this. Unbelievably slow! We ordered three things, 2 of which took a half an hour to be served, while the third was almost 40 minutes. 40 minutes for a bacon and egg sandwich!

Jennifer Dianne

Delicious food, great service

Daniel Rodgers

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and unique dishes.. Will definitely be back soon to try more things

Daniel Johnston

Taiyaki's are so yummy!

Abigail Case

Nice cafe. Sweet fish bread. Kindly service.

Alysha Rogers

Robert Warnock

Fantastic drinks and sweets! Only thing that would make it better is if it opened at 830 or before!

Scott Fuller

Cute clean little cafe hidden away in Halifax, super yummy desserts :)

Sophie JB

Cute little cafe near downtown Halifax! The savoury and sweet waffles are sooooo good! The flat white is descent but the service was great too. You should get there before 5 or 6pm because they can run out of the more popular flavoured waffles

One of my favourite cafes in the city! If I can’t make it in before work, I will order my ham and cheese taiyaki and my taiyaki bites from Uber Eats. Even when ordering, I get cute messages written on my order box every time. It’s the added personal touches, the great quality of food and reasonable prices that make me a loyal customer!

Lots of bad reviews on here about the customer service. I'm guessing they're working on it and deserve the chance- I found them nice and polite! Nothing too pushy but it was quick to order and our food came out pretty fast. We had the spicy pulled chicken sandwhich and two fish pastries- one vanilla custard and one blueberry cream cheese. I preferred the vanilla custard but both were nice. Cute esthetic and nice atmosphere overall. I would go back and try more things for sure!

Amazing cute place . Great treat I love to stop by for the seasonal specials or even just a Red Bean Taiyaki(my favourite) always fresh and warm made to order Taiyaki. The sandwich ones are also amazing the cheese is so good!
