Higher Culture Cafe

A first timer to this wonderful locale! The atmosphere is relaxed, hip and full of chef inspired foodie delights! The ceasar salad dressing was fab, all made in-house by the Chef. A choice of comfort food on the menu, went with the grilled cheese-very YUM. When you find yourself in the area, do yourself a favour- skip the big brand restaurants and hit up this amazing cafe! Wont be my last time visiting! See you there!

Fantastic lunch today, sampled a few items. D'Arcy and Mitch hit the spot, perfectly. Reuben sandwich was fantastic, and perogies with bacon, onion, and cheese were great, and locally sourced. Great tunes, also. Bring your own vinyl!

This place was pleasantly surprising. The decor reflects the owner's great interest in music. There are musical instruments adorning the walls as well as other musical memorabilia. The soup of the day was fresh and good. My friend ordered a salad and I had a grilled cheese.. both excellent! Not the fastest service if you are in a hurry but I'm sure that would be available were you to request it. In our case, we were catching up with each other and the timing was perfect. We will certainly make a return visit

I really enjoy Higher Culture! They have a great menu and my order is always delicious. The atmosphere inside is very welcoming, warm and relaxed. Nicely decorated. I also really like just being able to pull up to the window on my bike order my drink quickly and continue on my way. My only criticism is that the hours aren’t long enough. I would go much more often if it was open a few more hours, or later hours on a few days.

My father and I stopped by today and we were very impressed!! The service was top notch, friendly and inviting. They have a fantastic vinal collection including some rare stuff my dad likes. The coffee was fantastic and we both had a Reuben sandwich. Hands down best Reuben sandwich we've ever had possibly the best overall sandwich. Highly recommend this establishment!

Wonderful vibe! Their waffle is so good!

Food is good and the decor is really beautiful. The employee were very sweet.

I go to this place regularly and love everything about it. The atmosphere is very pleasant, with the homey feeling and music in the background. The food is very good and everything I've had has been tasty. Service is excellent, making you feel at home. Recomm it for coffee and lunch.

Very happy with my experience! Small place, I went to lunch with my gf, and I'll run you through it: Theres a sign out front with their menu on it, mostly sandwiches and wraps, a couple salads, and other things I didn't get to see as I had settled on classic chicken wrap. The menu is also available on their website for those who like to choose what to eat before they go There was no line up as we walked to the takeout window to place our order COVID, no indoor sitting, it was recieved quickly and we found a table out back. Our food was brought out within 15 minutes, may have been 10, really felt not long. The corned beef sandwich was fantastic, and chicken wrap was stuffed with fresh veggies and good chicken. Both came with a good helping of kettle cooked chips, a long slice of what I'm guessing is garlic dill pickle, AND a small cucumber salad that was tasty. Nothing was dripping with sauce or dressing, which I really appreciate

I had such a great experience here. I have a gluten and dairy allergy so I messaged beforehand to ensure they had gf and df options. When we went, I got a sandwich on gf bread and an iced chai with almond milk. My sister and friend ordered their stuff normal. While we were waiting for our drinks, we saw the guy run out somewhere and come back with almond milk because he had ran out of it. I thought it was so great that he went out to grab some instead of just telling me he could not fulfill my order. The sandwiches were AMAZING the gf bread was tasty and the coffee was great. The place has a great vibe and is super clean. I highly recommend it and am thankful they made my allergy-run life a little better. Will become a regular place for us :
