Absolute perfection. Jeff and his staff are so warm and welcoming. And as always the food was on point. Clean and warm... environment. I reccomend this place all the time. Read more

Off the beaten path which we loved, and though challenging to find, well worth it. (Tip: Follow signs for the Salmonid (sp?)... Interpretation Center all the way including a one-way wooden bridge and you?ll make it) Hands down a primo gem not to be missedwith charming decor, friendly staff, a deck overlooking a spectacular waterfall, with the most delicious, creative food. Myhusband and I stopped in en route to Newfoundland. I had a yummy breakfast sandwich and my husband had a veggie omelet he loved.On our way home we had no choice but to return bc we loved it so much where I had a grilled cheese panini with apple slices andcrispy bacon which was over the top. My husband ordered a red pepper soup which was like no other (really) and also had a veganrice bowl beautifully presented and delicious. Not to be missed! Read more

Were all these reviews written by their friends? Wondering where the world famous friendly Newfoundland people are. . .... ?! When we walked into the cafe there was no greeting or smile, in fact they ignored us at the 'wait to be seated' sign forseveral minutes and then finally, almost begrudgingly came and asked how many, still no smile or hello. The service was fairlyquick, but the surly attitude of our server was off putting. The grilled cheese sandwich must have missed the turn at thepannini press, as it was sort of browned, but the cheese was not melted, and barely warm inside. We didn't complain due theattitude of the server. I was surprised by the small size of the chicken burger in the brioche bun, and not sure if the shreddedchicken was out of a can. The view was nice, and a quick walk down the hill to the dam was interesting, but definitely wouldn'trecommend this place. Not sure why it seems to be so popular. Read more

UPDATE: JULY 1, 2022 Today we returned to give this cafe a 2nd go, & a huge improvement from our last visit. The beverage menu... was easily visible, with a great selection. The floor staff were very professional & can operate very efficiently, even with avery busy arrival of customers both dine-in & take-out. The meals were delicious & portions were NOT a disappointment. We willdefinitely be returning to enjoy many more meals & beverages. Kudos to The 3rd Place Cafe ????????? Original post (a monthprior) Very Disappointed with the service this morning at the new location. We went to have a nice light breakfast & a hotbeverage. The sign says "please wait to be seated" which we did for 5 minutes before we sat ourselves to a table. There was noBeverage menu offered so when the server asked what we wanted to drink we didn't know what to order. The server said "well whatdo you want & I'll see if we got it". The same was said when we asked if there was any fresh baked good other than the onelonely cupcake & date square. There were no breakfast baked goods like fresh bagels, protein balls or muffins. Since we didn'thave a beverage menu & the sever couldn't tell us what was available we just had coffee & hot chocolate. The hot chocolate waswarm milk & a no name ice cream syrup mix which all settled at the bottom of the mug. Read more

Quick and friendly service. Beautiful view from the patio. Food was good (3.5/5)

Absolutely delightful spot, and the food was phenomenal. Best nachos I can remember having in a long time.

Our first visit after driving by so many times and wondering, "Why and how is that apartment complex serving coffee?" Looks are... decieving- the instant you walk down those stairs and open the door to the Third Place you are instantly warmed. The coffee isso tasty- I loved the way the menu and desserts were set up and easy to read. The hardest part was deciding! Truly such a gem inGFW you need to check out and cozy up in! Read more
