Sitting in the window first thing in the morning is a great way to start the day.\n\nThe coffee is good, of course, as coffee from Ideal is always good. I wish they had larger mugs for \"for here\" coffee. There's usually good treats, although sometimes they arrive from the bakery a little later in the morning than I arrive. They have sandwiches but I've never tried them.\n\nPrairie Boy bakery bakes their bread in the back, so you can leave with a still-warm loaf of Winnipeg Rye. (Do this.)\n\nIt can get a little crowded sometimes, and the table layout along the pews is kind of awkward for sharing tables, but everyone in this neighbourhood is so friendly that it all works out. \n\nThe staff are very nice, and if you go there even occasionally regularly you'll probably be recognized. It's nice to be treated like a regular. Sometimes there can be a bit of a wait for coffee because there's usually only one person working. \n\nGood wifi, lots of plugs available. You're allowed to unplug the strings of lights if you need to. \n\nAlso, the antique wood walk-in refrigerator that takes up 1/4 of the shop is beautiful."^^ . . .
