Reviews of Cinnamon Cafe (Restaurant)

Patricia George-Zwicker

Something told me that I should walk into the Cinnamon Cafe and I'm sure glad I did. This place is a hidden gem. Wonderful hosts, full of artwork and rich with personality. Everyone should know this place!

Sherry L Veinotte

What a find!!! Great food! Coconut dessert is a winner! Only complaint is that although the listing states the cafe is open till 9pm, the owner decided to close at 8:15pm so felt rushed. But that was a small sacrifice for such great food.

Randy Shinduke

Lovely place with excellent food.

Strux

Amazing restaurant, I honestly think it's the best hummus and falafels in NB. Very friendly staff aswell

Olga Haznaci

Skillfully made Persian food. We tried dolma and lentil soup, yoghurt dip and tabouleh salad and falafel- everything was delicious and flavorful.

While staying at fredericton, I read about this cafe serving delicious and vegan baklavas. Located in downtown, I loved the vibe of this cafe reflecting such a positive and vibrant ambience. I and my husband enjoyed the coffee with crispy baklava. Rating: Ambience: 5/5 Taste: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Value for Money: 4/5

Cozy ambience. Very welcoming friendly service. Great vegan food. Their stew was just like Indian paruppu saadham. Decent pricing. A definite go for vegetarians. Their chocolate nut cake does not have egg.

Great little restaurant! I'd return even if just for a salad. Definitely recommend it.

Jedediah Matthews

Objectively one of the best restaurants in this city, nothing about this place disappoints and you can tell that they genuinely care about what dishes they are serving.

Graham W.

Highly recommended. Delicious food. Had the dolma and sweet potato noodles. The sauces were really flavourful and unique. Great service. Pleasant setting and all around enjoyable experience.

What a gem of a restaurant. I should have come here sooner. I've been living nearby for over two years now and have never gone in because of two main reasons. 1, there are many restaurants in the area, I'm still making the rounds. 2, like many meat eaters, vegan isn't my go-to. It's not that I don't like it, it's like jazz. I never hate it when it's around, but I'll never go to it on my own. Not going here was a mistake! It's very well designed and the staff are supremely friendly, but the food is of course the gem here. I never would have guessed the food here could pack such incredible and diverse flavours into their dishes. From the vegan burger to the walnut stew and the baklava, everything had us clamoring for more.

Colleen Bray

Fabulous food. Second visit just as great as the first. Takes a bit of time but that was a silver lining since I was enjoying a catch-up with a friend. Now I need to try more things on the menu, since my first selection was so good I've ordered it twice! Portions big enough to take home tomorrow's lunch.

Emma Turner

The Gheymeh stew is so good!! Great place for vegan options

Hady A

Never ate at a vegan restaurant before but wanted to make the wife happy. Atmosphere is nice, could use a bit of touch ups but overall nice and relaxing. Food was good, tried the vegan burger with a drop of ketchup along some delicious thick homemade fries . Glad I tried it out.

Nasrin Eshraghi Ivari

I liked this cosy and friendly cafe. Only Persian cafe in Fredericton which makes me feel comfortable!

Angela Black

The food here is ONE OF A KIND. Delicious, beautiful service- lots of local art on display. The chocolate cake is out of this world. You won't regret eating here!

Timothy White

I went for dinner and ordered off of the "Dine Around Freddy" menu that was a part of FROSTival Fredericton. The food was delicious. I will return when I'm back in the area.

Garfield Fisher

Oops! Food so darn good I forgot to take a photo at the beginning of my meal. So here is what I have. Nice surprising find.

Amanda Sykes

I have walked by many times while working downtown and today I decided to stop for a treat. I am so glad I did. Although I am not a vegetarian or vegan I still enjoyed my meal very much. The staff is so friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. I will definitely make more trips to enjoy this place. Try the Turkish coffee, it is perfect.

fuad alom

The food is simply mind blowing. I would love to come back to this place once again!

Steph

Fabulous food, excellent service and a cosy atmosphere! So many vegan and gluten free options! I didn't feel like I was an afterthought!

Namita Chaudhary

Its a small place but the food is so flavourful. Being a vegetarian in an unknown place can be exciting but challenging. Luckily i found a good option at this cafe. The dessert was great too. I could also meet the chef and have a conversation. The cafe also displays paintings by local artists which gives it a great ambiance. It is very centrally located on King Street so it is very easily accessible on foot or by bus.

廖詠婕

This stew is too sour for me but nice chocolate cake!! Their chocolate cake is the best in the world I swear!!

Josh Oostenbrink

Stopped here randomly on a road trip out east and my and my fiance were not dissapointed! We love middle eastern food and so we ordered some of our favourite dishes and were very impressed.The falafel was incredibly tasty with their homemade hummus and the salads were very fresh tasting with just the right amount of dressing. The staff were also very polite and we did not wait long at all for our food. Very solid choice if you are in the area and need a choice of restaurant that you can be sure you wont regret. Would definitely drive into town just to taste the food here again!

K Wade

The falafels were the absolutely best ever. You must try them to understand how amazing they are. The Walnut stew is also wonderful as well as the very lovely Turkish coffee. We were driving through so we have not been able to return. Locals need to realize what a gem they have at their doorstep.

Alexandre Trudeau-Dion

Superb place vegan ???? and vegetarian. Really cool looking place with bunch of art on the wall.

Abbas Ladonni

This is a hidden gem in the heart of Fredericton. A cozy place where you may find a variety of perfect home made vegetarian dishes. The cuisines here have been chosen from a nice selection of Mediterranean and pure Persian dishes. If you're here do not miss the very unique eastern dessert coming from a rich culture and a ancient tradition. Prices are fairly affordable in this level of desired quality. Staffs are really lovely and kind. Environment is very special and worse to visit.

Lore

Emad deserves a raise! went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time at the restaurant. he deserves a raise!

Anuj Singla

Small quite place with best food

Arash Ahmadi

Stopped by to get a falafel wrap, and got treated with a cup of saffron tea! ???? Very friendly staff and warm atmosphere... Totally recommend it!

Rachel McAdam

A spectacular place to eat. Definitely a new favourite for me! The staff are super friendly and polite, there's amazing local artwork and the food is to DIE for! If you're looking for something different to try that is also super healthy (vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options are the majority of the menu) then go try out the Cinnamon Café!

Zara Palevani

If you are ever in Fredericton, make sure to visit Cinnamon Cafe! They have the best Persian vegetarian food and I am not even a vegetarian! The cafe’s environment and the staff on top of the great food altogether make a memorable visit!

Ajit Thakkar

A lovely place with tasty Persian vegetarian food. Vegan & gluten free options are available.

Phil McLeod

Great place

Ryan Scott

Delicious restaurant with great vegan options. I would recommend going with someone and sharing a couple plates to get the most variety of their delicious food. Turkish coffee is also a must.

Sean P. O. MacCath-Moran

Ordered with a group and we shared everything around, and everything was absolutely awesome. Highly recommend.

Ben Todd-Sweezey

Amazing food-a great option for a nice lunch!

Reanne Cooper

My mom and I went to Cinnamon Cafe back in October. We weren't sure on what to choose, we debated on a few different options. Finally, we asked the server for a suggestion and opted for the Gheymeh Stew and wow... It was so so so delicious! With the small side salad it was just enough for both of us. Lately I've been thinking about this meal and I think its time I come back to visit and try something new!

Steve Bobbitt

Discovered by accident yesterday when I was down town fredericton, food was beyond amazing! Looking forward to returning for more. This is a must try for all!

Lisa Croft

Great experience. We had the stir fried veggies with sweet potato noodles, and the falafel wrap. Both were fresh and tasted great. Server was very nice as well. We will be back.

Kelly Whalen

Awesome falafel wrap, real peppermint tea. Wonderful and caring staff.

Fredericton Mom

Yum! I ordered the shawarma plate and it was delicious. My taste buds loved it all! Really good portion sizes and prices are very reasonable. I will definitely go back again.

Debi Skidmore

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere, can't beat it.

Julianno Scaglione

I really enjoyed this restaurant. The service was great and the food was healthy and delicious. Their coconut cream pie is unreal. Not only did they have great food and service but their prices are very reasonable. I was also pleased as a person with celiac disease to find a good selection of the menu is gluten free.

Carla Allen

Amazing food. Cute space. Excellent customer service. I went there when visiting a friend this past winter and I'm still raving about this restaurant to my friends back home in Québec!

Candice Budd

Phenomenal service every time I'm there. Most authentic place in town:) food is fantastic!

Karen Cummings

Great service and atmosphere. Best falafel wrap I have ever had! Some vegan dessert options that were delicious. Would recommend to anybody!

Beth Lahaie

Great service, good food!

East Coast

Delicious vegan food... but plan your entire lunch around it, or call ahead for take out. Good food takes time, I guess. ;)

Indy Kandola

Pretty incredible. Food was excellent and traditional from my perspectIve of eating at authentic middle eastern restaurants. The vegan twists to the dishes were excellent. Tons of flavour and I suspect meat eaters would do well here too with the shawarma. Update: My family has come here 3 years in a row as we road trip through Atlantic Canada. It is never a disappointment and seems to get better. Below is the shawarma wrap, the rice and green beans, and the tofu plate. Super delicious, as always. This family run business includes very warm and inviting service. Pleasant people.

Amazing food and great service.

Diana May

In a Persian restaurant you would expect the pitas to at least be homemade, not cold pitas that seem to have been bought from a grocery store. Although the olive dip entree had good flavours, it was congealed and presentation was off. Falafel was mushy and bland instead of crispy and full of greens as it should be- fries and salad were soggy. Microwave beeping was heard several times during service, and service was very slow. Baklava was delicious- unfortunate because they definitely have potential ????

Christopher Chang

This place lives upto its name. Atleast with regards to the dessert dish we ordered. Substantial use of cinnamon. The order was an Americano, Turkish coffee, Golden dessert. The Americano was very spot on. Flavorful and no burnt bean taste in a appropriately sized cup. The Turkish coffee was ok. There were a few things added in there which muted the coffee taste. Usually I'm use to being offered additives in Turkish coffee (which I turn down). The result was a Turkish coffee that was way too sweet. Although points back for some very well ground beans. Golden dessert. This was a pretty delightful dessert. Flavor was overall a bit mild but good. The texture of the sticky rice with the flaked almonds and cinnamon all meshed well. It was easy to to share and nice to look at. Decor of the interior was nice with lots of art on the walls. The tables were a bit tacky (in a literally sense with plastic cover over the tables, and style sense). The seating inside was sufficient for the size of the establishment, not too sparse and not packed to the point where you are tripping on chairs. Service was excellent. Server was quick and nice.

Nazmus Rezwan

Simply amazing! The food is so delicious and the falafels are mind blowing. It’s surprising to see how vegan food tastes so good!
