What a surreal experience. Went for the burger challenge two Fridays ago. Burger was decent, but the fries you could count one one hand. Not a deal breaker ... despite the price tag being a little atrocious for the product.This though .... A friend asked for ketchup, as the bottle was empty. The server told us that they were all out, but "Caines (a convenience store) next door has some packets if you want to go grab some" ... then she walked away. We all looked at each other in absolute bewilderment. Hahahaha.I've never witnessed anything so ridiculous ... and I've been in the service industry for almost 30 years. Absolutely mind-bending.

This is one of the best places to go for some amazing good food and the atmosphere and the workers treat you like family. I love coming here for a relaxing and amazing evening and it's great for takeout too. The staff Tom Andrew and Sarah are absolutely amazing individuals. They go above and beyond with everything and treat you like one of their own. For anyone who hasn't tried this yet I highly recommend it. Their menu is amazing and the food, well that speak for itself.

Nice laid back place with tasty food. They have a new baker from Ukraine, Alla, who is creating amazing desserts. Merengue, cakes, cookies, you name it . Highly recommended!

It was the best I've ever had!... perfection!Coffee (americano) was very good as well.Quite impressed with the winelist too, so I'll definitely have to return some evening.Vegetarian options: Most dishes have vegetarian options or just are.

Toslow has the best coffee in the city! Great quality and always consistent. When you visit Toslow you will be greeted by friendly staff and you are guaranteed to leave with a delicious cup of coffee that will want you coming back for more. I also love the freshly baked pastries and sweets that they have, I honestly thought the pastry chefs were trained in Paris, but apparently they were self taught, very impressive. As I travel a lot I simply wish there were more Toslow locations around the country - or even the world!

Cute coffee house with great coffee and friendly staff. Baked good ranging from cupcakes to zephurs are an extra bonus. The perfect spot to go if you’re staying at the nearby Marriott Courtyard.

Love the Sammies and the vibe!Drip coffee is normally good but was watery the last time I was there.The last few espressos I’ve had have been a little too bitter or sour - I feel they didn’t dial in the espresso to bring out the flavour of the beans. I figure that affects the other espresso drinks. I usually see great latte art though.

Great coffee, superior coffee art, and fresh pastries. Super vibe, and delightfully pleasant service. Be sure to drop in for a cup to start your day, fo' sho'!
I heard about this small Cafe from my friend but this is first time in my more than a year in St. John's I decided to stop by. Absolutely lovely view on the Narrows from the 2nd Floor. I am usually very picky coming to the taste of coffee but I enjoyed my cup of cappuccino (cookie was lovely also). I will come back;)

This is my buddy and I's favorite place for dinner - we try to go every month and we're never disappointed. The dinner menu rotates; they post that weekends menu on their Instagram every week, and its always unique, flavourful, creative, and masterfully plated. Despite the small menu on each rotation (there's usually 5-6 dishes to choose from each weekend), there are almost always at least two vegetarian options (which are proper, filling, delicious meals not just salads like a lot of places). For the food quality, the price is very reasonable. I've also been there for breakfast sandwiches and they've been divine. Plus, its quality food in an unassuming, quirky, fun environment. My only "negative" comment is expect to wait a bit longer than usual for food: they're usually quite busyVegetarian options: Lots!

Nice place on Duckworth in DT St. John's. They have very little signage to let you know they exist, but they're there! We stopped in and Renee was fantastic at letting us know what they had as there is not much of a menu or board to look at to see what they offer. I would love for them to invest in some advertising or signage to let us know what they have! I'd love to support this small business more ❤️

There are not a ton of cafes in St. John's, at least around downtown. So we decided on Toslow for some coffee and food after exploring for a while. This place is in the north end of downtown on Duckworth and well worth it. We had two iced Americanos which were okay but could have been a little stronger, still nice as it was hot and humid. We also ordered two breakfast sandwiches and I think it isn't hyperbole to say that it was the breakfast sandwich I have ever had. It was a beautifully toasted sesame bagel with bacon, lots of well cooked, high quality bacon, cheese onions and some homemade chutney style jam. It was so so good. Amazing. The interior is fun and cozy. Definitely a good place to go if you need to rest your legs.
