I have Hashimoto’s and food allergies gluten, dairy, and soy, so finding a place where I feel safe and comfortable isn’t always easy. Leonhard’s was absolutely wonderful and exceeded my expectations.nThe café is beautifully decorated, very cozy and welcoming, with a warm atmosphere that makes you want to stay and enjoy the moment. The staff is extremely kind and attentive, which I truly appreciate when I need to ask about ingredients.nI ordered a chai tea latte with oat milk, and they use Silk oat milk, which works perfectly for me. It was delicious, comforting, and very well prepared.nEverything—from the ambiance to the service—was excellent.nIf you’re visiting Charlottetown, this place is a must. 10/10, highly recommended.
If you’re looking for a quality breakfast spot in Charlottetown, this is the spot. Super quaint and cozy space located right downtown, Leonhard’s was the perfect stop for a proper coffee and meal. I had the eggs Benny with braised beef and mushrooms, a first time for me seeing such an offering and it was delicious. Great all-day breakfast to boot! Definitely recommend.
My wife and I came for brunch early around 9:20am on a Saturday. The place was quite busy, with customers coming in consistently for both dine-in and takeout. The restaurant had a nice relaxing atmosphere, and was very quaintly decorated.nnWe ordered the pictures I submitted, and the total was $70 after tax and tip.nnIn terms of the quality of the food and drink, it averaged out to be mediocre. The potato leek soup had so much black pepper in it that it was all you could taste. I could not taste leek at all, and you wouldn’t even know it had a potato base, because it was so thin. It also had globs of sour cream in it that did not mix well into the soup.nnThe focaccia used for the sandwich was quite good; nice and airy and well seasoned. However, it was missing cucumbers as stated on the menu.nnThe French toast was made with good quality brioche, and the vanilla cream, pastry cream, strawberries, compote, and honeyed granola was a great flavor combination. A nice enough breakfast.nnThe flat white was very disappointing, because there was a copious amount of milk foam, which flat whites are not supposed to have. Additionally, the London fog my wife ordered was served in a glass mug with no handle for some reason, which became too hot to hold with bare hands.nnThe vanilla roll we had was also a bit disappointing. The Chantilly cream in the roll was excellent, but the sponge cake portion had a noticeable egg white smell when eating, which was very off-putting.nnI must also bring up the service, which I almost never mention in my restaurant reviews. The service was quite poor.nnWhen ordering, I asked our male server if the sandwich and soup combo was prepared with a large portion of soup; he told me it was prepared with a small one. I pointed out to him that it was cheaper if I ordered a full sandwich and small soup separately, than if I ordered a combo. This made me think the combo would come with a large portion of soup instead. He responded “okay…” in such an exasperated tone, and asked me to finish ordering, instead of looking into my concerns.nnAfter finishing our meal, I went to the register to pay. The owner was there, and looked at me with a scowl on his face, and asked if I was there to get takeout. Mind you, I spent the last hour watching the owner go up to multiple tables, making small talk with customers with a smile on his face. I watched him cheerfully greet customers, take takeout orders, and take payments, all with a kind and friendly demeanor. He walked by our table at least 15 times during our time there. For him to not notice I was a dine-in customer, and to have such a disconcerting look, really did not make me feel good. He never even asked how our meal was.nnThere was also a female server there, she was very sweet.
Came here during breakfast with a line to get in. Wasn’t worth the wait. The Fish Cakes were so dry and crumbly and didn’t pair well with the medium poached eggs that were also dry. As well, the salad came with the saddest drizzle of dressing…again too dry. My partner ordered Two Eggs with Jam and Buttered Toast. Never got the jam. Had to pay $6 extra for bacon! The waitress checked in on the couple beside us several times, but never our table. When she finally came around, she just assumed we were finished. Had to ask for the jam. By this time the toast was cold. Overall, this is a very chic dining space and the food is presented nicely, but the flavour and quality is lacking especially for the price. Service needs improvement regardless if they’re busy.
We were referred here by a friend and it was amazing. Very busy but the menu was worth the wait. I couldn't decide between the eggs Benedict and the French toast so they put a special plate together for me that was amazing. It was all a 10/10. The French toast with cinnamon and coriander, and the steak and eggs Benedict. There is a takeout option there as well if you want to just grab a coffee and pastry. For dessert I had the 7 nut pie and that was awesome as well but overall I would easily recommend here and go back again if in Charlottetown, PEI.
