| - Warm and caring service, well-made food, and a comfortable inviting space make this SUCH a wonderful spot for pre-work breakfast, lunch or an early dinner: I *LOVE* this cafe since Gaston took it over!
Gaston and his kitchen staff are warm, welcoming, and always SO happy to see you. Given the choice Gaston would love for everyone to STAY and eat at the cafe - he told me it feels like having friends over for lunch, which he loves. That said he's always happy to pack it up for takeout if you don't have time to spare to stay.
Gaston puts such care and attention into his food preparation, and he is visibly proud of the food he serves. He uses fresh ingredients (stop by in the morning and you can see!), he creates his own recipes, and he welcomes and listens to feedback from his customers. Gaston has always been gracious with making small changes on the fly (e.g., adding or skipping an ingredient you dis/like in quesadillas or sandwiches), and he's always trying out new menu items to see how they fare with customers. If you're lucky he'll have his free homemade chrysanthemum tea brewed when you stop in - you should DEFINITELY ask for a cup if you enjoy loose teas!
Such care is shown in the way things are taken care of at The Destination Cafe. The cafe itself is cozy, always has nice music playing in the background (no harsh radio with commercials), and it has a nice collection of furniture - my favourites are the comfy couch in the window, and the door re-purposed into a table-top at the back!
I always feel welcome to enjoy a meal, or to just sit and read in the afternoon sunshine with a coffee/tea and a book - don't miss stopping by this wonderful spot if you have the chance!
