I like this store in my neighborhood, especially the small café inside. The store is spacious and well organized, clean, and carries a lot of products. The meat and seafood are always fresh. I’d like to get my yoghurt and oat milk here, of which they have many varieties and at reasonable prices.
I used to come daily to their cafe for fresh made breakfast sandwiches and coffee before COVID. Today, I came again. And Marla at the counter was very patient to customize my breakfast sandwich. Although it was busy, she still came to ask the customers how their breakfasts were. I highly recommend this store, especially their breakfast sandwiches and coffee.
It's my first time visiting this location. There were plenty of seats inside, all separated by plexiglass. I like the colorful flowers on the patio. The interior design is very natural and has a relaxing colour tone. The baked goods looked fresh, so I ordered a croissant and a pour over coffee. The staff told me 5 mins but it was so busy, and there was only one person taking orders and making sandwiches, my order took 15 minutes. My coffee was not hot when I finally got it. I think they should not be serving pour over coffee during busy hours, unless they have extra staff on hand. Anyway, the coffee was great and the croissant was tasty. I would like to try the veggie burger next time.
Be Fresh Local Market

BeFresh Market is where I get my organic coffee and teas and love their avocado toast ,too.
This afternoon though, I had a croissant, but it was dry and had no flavor at all. I asked the staff if the croissant was from yesterday, she said no, it was fresh. I ended up telling the other staff who offered me a refund. Will not have the croissant again
Today was my first time back at Pallet since March and I felt very comfortable and safe here. There was a big bottle of sanitizer at the entrance, and after tapping to pay, the cashier immediately wiped down the machine. There was also another bottle of sanitizer for the customer to use after payment. There was a plexiglass between the staff and customers. Come try their coffee and BYO breakfast. There is a variety of bread, protein, and cheese to choose from, an egg and greens included. Portion was generous for $9, very reasonable. The staff is friendly as usual, even during this difficult time.
Starbucks
2020 Jan 24
I usually come to this Starbucks after shopping at T&T and it’s always been alright, but today the staff had terrible attitude and left quite a bad impression. I was looking for cream for my cold brew and saw three bottles of milk. Several others were also looking for the cream, so I told the lady who made my coffee. A few moments later, a staff carrying a bottle of cream came. I happily expressed my excitement that cream had finally arrived, but the staff looked at me rudely and said “I need to fill them up, right?” and rudely headed off. It was early in the morning so I didn’t expect her to react in such a defensive way. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth.
