Mugshots Cafe

A good brunch spot in Fernie. Decent old fashioned dinner style service and interior, with decent brunch dishes and average prices. Food was decent and the service too. Nothing to rave about but a decent spot overall.

I was passing through Fernie and I got a very unique experience here, It wasn’t bad or good. In order to end on a positive note I’ll start with the cons. Their straws, I don’t mind paper straws but these were truly bad and ugly. It was pricey for me, an iced latte, small soup and sandwich over $30. Awkward entrance, with it being attached to another business or something, not exactly sure what it was. The bathroom was dirty and outdated. Overall not very clean, and they have so much going on everywhere it seemed cluttered. Some decor wasn’t “it”, I understand what they tried doing with vintage and retro vibes but the tables with the green tops, and those chairs were just old and ugly, some of the decor was the same, just old, not in a cute way. The service was good, not great but good. They have wheelchair ramps everywhere which was a huge highlight to see, especially since they had to add a ramp on multiple locations! Small but very nice and secluded patio with solid bushes! Some of the decor was very beautiful and unique. Loved the wall mural with all the colours! The best part of the experience was the food, it was actually really delicious. I was nervous about it because everything had a hit or miss feeling to it, but the food made it all worth it. Sandwich made to perfection, toast with butter also perfectly done, chickpea and curry soup was meh, but filling! The most important thing is the food being delicious and that’s why I would definitely come back!

It's a great rustic food and drinks place. The food is awesome. We had a couple of breakfast plates, with coffee and orange juice. The service was efficient and friendly although they were very busy. There is seating both inside and out with a relaxed ambiance.

My partner ordered the ham and Swiss waffle and it arrived cold. Waffles are not freshly made, pretty sure they are pre-made or frozen and reheated. The ham was cold, the Swiss cheese wasn’t even melted. They said it came with mayo Dijon, and it was just a plain dollop of mayo in the middle. They made me purchase and tip before receiving the meal, and it was $15. Not impressed.

Awesome place, strong 5 starsnWe had a delicious burrito and coffee with an amazing view on the patio. Great service as well.
