Leonhard's in Charlottetown

Ive been coming to Leonhards for years and the quality of the food is always top-notch, but its the cozy atmosphere and the exceptionally kind and friendly service that really sets this place apart. A must visit in Charlottetown.

Very tasty food and yummy deserts. Place was packed at lunch time. Friendly service bonus!

Cute spot, sandwiches are made with fresh bread, my sandwich was a dry like the bread was slice and left sitting out or maybe under a heat lamp. Coffee is delicious and you can go wrong with a slice of vanilla cake! We enjoy this spot and will be back.

We stood for 30 minutes to get a table, my wife and I (taking into account that my wife is 8 months pregnant) and there were two tables available, they didnt want to give it to us because it was supposed to be a table for 4 people. and the other for 3 people. Im not coming back. I dont recommend it.

Usually one of our favorite spots, but really disappointed by the service we received today. My husband and I were sat beside the door on a cold, raining afternoon with both sets of doors propped open. Kindly asked one of the servers if we could have the outer door closed, which she happily did. After about 5 minutes, a different server re-opened it. We asked once again if they wouldn t mind closing it because of the draft sitting next to the door. Was rudely told that, no, (she) needed both doors open. We left before a server came to take our order because we were too uncomfortable and didn t appreciate being spoken to in such a dismissive manner over, what I would consider, a reasonable request. Not the kind of service I associate or expect from Leonhards.

I adore the breakfast salmon benedict! Can be quite busy so I usually go a little later.

Best brunch in town!

After double checking restaurant hours indicating a 4pm closure we arrived at 2:30 pm with full expectations of having full service . After travelling to Charlottetown with a 20 minute out of town drive and paying for parking we were told upon arrival that their hot service was done for the day . After being very surprised by this and questioning it being closed so early we were rudely informed it was due to a slow day . Very frustrating and disappointing to say the very least . Will not rush back .

Best breakfast and lattes!!! Stayed in Charlottetown for few days and went there every single day

Wonderful place for brunch! Highly recommend!

Cute spot where we had breakfast several times. Food was always delicious and service was great. Clearly popular with locals and tourists alike. The Eggs Benedict was particularly good.

What an amazing place Leonhards has the best food in the town, eggs Benedict super tasty, the service is fantastic, they offer you to prepare something special if you dont like something on the menu. Definitely recommended. Ill come back every time I visit the city.

Honestly I love this place. The food is good and the staff is great. The problem is the owner. He is so obnoxious, rude and ignorant. The way he treats costumers is an absolute joke. Whenever I go in and he s there yelling behind the desk, I roll my eyes and want to walk out. It s truly awful. He should focus on being an owner and refrain from working with customers. Let his staff, who are great, do the job they were hired to do. I m honestly not even sure how he maintains his staff. Other than him, this place is 5*!

Fashionable cake shop. The tart was delicious. The cheesecake was a little dense. Atmosphere and customer service are good.

The owner was rude and condescending.

Never miss a chance to visit Leonard s when in Charlottetown. It never disappoints for service and quality. They are very aware of Gluten Free needs and are careful about cross contamination if you re celiac. The Eggs Benedict are the winner for me, but there are options for sandwiches and the great salads. There s usually a couple GF choices for dessert, but the Turtle Cheesecake is the best. Combined with fresh orange juice and excellent Cappuccino and you ve got an unforgettable brunch. Don t hesitate to try it! Dietary restrictions: Staff are knowledgeable about gluten free options and requirements. Menu is clearly marked and precautions are taken to limit cross contamination.

Wonderful shop The salad dressing was absolutely delicious

This place was recommended by a local and it was excellent. Friendly staff and foor was gret.

Great food, highly recommend the salmon eggs Benedict.

Excellent food and fast service. Extensive menu with all day breakfast for some popular items. One of my favorites.

Great food and atmosphere and a very attentive staff.

Healthy delicious food, incredibly efficient service, great atmosphere. Can t really get much better than this!

Mediocre at best.

YUM! best birthday breakfast!

Excellent breakfast and great service.

Great breakfast spot!

EXCELLENT ! We took - Sweet potato Thai soup - Snitzel - French Toast Pesto and Bacon - Hot latte - Iced latte Amazing ! Big portion ! WE RECOMMEND !

Amazing food!!!

This was the best lunch !!! Delicious salad, sandwich and soup, very cozy atmosphere. Everything was very fresh and portions were generous. Coffee was very good, great service, I would definitely go back next time I am in town. Food : 5/5

Cute little breakfast spot in the middle of town. You may have to wait for a seat as it is so busy due to the food being so delicious and the staff being so lovely. Definitely worth the wait!

Nice and cute breakfast restaurant. We were in PEI for the summer and this restaurant definitely stood out amongst all the breakfast restaurants we tried. Service was amazing and the atmosphere was just right.

Still one of my favorite restaurants. Im from PEI, and for years I bring my friends ans family here for brunch. I dont think Ive ever been dissatisfied with the food. Myself and my grandfather have Celiac disease and they have excellent gluten free options. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free (celiac disease) Parking: They dont have parking for the restaurant, its just whatever you find on the street. Its free on the weekends (which is usually when I go), but you can also go during the weekdays, but you would have to pay the regular street parking fees.

Great food, great service!

Great food and amazing service. We were a group of 9 with a baby and we enjoyed our breakfast very much. We all got different eggs Benedictine and everyone was happy with their choice! I would not hesitate to return when we come back to PEI and I recommend it to everyone. Close to the port so perfect to start a day of shopping :)

My go-to breakfast joint every time I come back to the Island. Awesome.

Absolutely delicious, had the goat cheese chicken sandwich! On top of that, how fast they got my food out was amazing!!

10/10 breakfast to eat in or also takeout

Enjoyed the iced Chai tea and Monte Christo. Would definitely return to try other menu items.

One of my favorite restaurants in Charlottetown. Food is fresh, not heavy but filling and delicious! Great service all the time and they serve local tea blends. Food : 5/5

Awesome and loved being there for the Ukraine fundraiser!

Great place and delicious lunch. Very well located, beautiful atmosphere

RUN! do not walk to this place of total DELISHISNESS! My 3rd morning today.... there will be a 4th.... and 5th.... and.... The baked goods are off the chart. Try the vanilla pudding + whipping cream roll... Or the cherry strudel... The yogurt bowl was extra yum with rhubarb compote. Breakfast bagel.... YUM!!!

Super cute, great food and coffee!

One of our favorites for brunch or lunch. Consistently good.

What a great place. Very cozy. Delicious food. Fast service with friendly staff. You wont be disappointed Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and gluten-free options

Great food and atmosphere. Was very busy at 9am on a Tuesday - clearly a well liked place! Food was delicious and interesting. Friendly service!

breakfast was amazing

Two people from another restuarant suggested I try this place for breakfast. It was fantastic. Yum

Great place. The food was so good. The service was excellent and very fast. I would certainly go back.

Great breakfast, friendly servers, just a great spot!

Lovely place! Both times I have gone have been wonderful

We went 3 days in a row and the staff recognized us and were very friendly. So many delicious options here, hard to decide which was our favorite! Worth the wait even if there is a line, and it doesn t take too long! Atmosphere and decor are beautiful! Parking: There s some metered spots on the street, and some paid lots nearby, but if you know the area better than we do you could find something better!

Boutique style breakfast restaurant with tasty and outside the box cooking. Mostly busy with locals and tourists.

So good we went back twice. You can t go wrong with most of the menu as our group tried many different items and no one was disappointed. Great place for breakfast or brunch, and probably even lunch too!!

Everything was delicious! Service was quick and our waitress was so kind and attentive.

Try the eggs Benedict and the smoked salmon on bagel. Great food , good service. Near St. Dunstan Basilica so it was a perfect place for brunch right after the 10 am mass.

Darrah was the best server I ve ever had!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options available including gluten free cheesecake Food

Amazing pulled pork eggs benny. Cute location!

Top of the line !

never been there

Delicious food, friendly service, quant atmosphere.

The staff and food were awesome! The coffee was delicious

Love this place. I have lots of allergies and they are always accommodating. Server is wonderful.

Egg pancakes are really good

A place with a cute design. Delicious eggs Benedict, but horrible coffee. Strawberry Island Green Tea highly recommended.

Highly recommend and popular with locals. The girls who worked there helped us with things to do around the city. Food was top notch. I recommend the house soup.

vanilla Rolle is quite big for 2. Quite difficult for me to keep diet, ha!

Top notch food, location and service was amazing. Our waiter, Mitchell, was so on the ball, really impressive.

Trying the vanilla roll was like tasting a piece of heaven. It was super soft and creamy, and just the right amount of sweet. Plus, you get a big portion for a great price. If you havent tried it yet, youre missing out! Give it a go you wont regret it!

Arguably the best lunch in Charlottetown. Friendly service, fresh ingredients, warm atmosphere, and always busy. Definitely worth a trip!

This is a truly amazing cafe!!! The ambience, food and staff are unforgettable! If you re lucky enough to visit Charlottetown, PE, this is the place to enjoy an outstanding gastronomical event!!!

Axel and his staff always make you feel welcome and appreciated. Delicious food with decent size offerings. A great place to unwind.

Excellent breakfast/lunch spot. More on the healthy side, so plenty of salads, nice sandwiches. Decent coffee menu too.

Awesome cafe, welcoming service and fresh, delicious dishes. Never disappoints - highly recommended. The coffee is amazing, too - I dare say the best in P.E.I.

The food is always amazing, like having a homemade meal. The staff are super friendly! Cant wait to go back! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free option available

Great food

Super cozy with great food!

Favorite place for coffee gettogethers

1st time in staff were friendly, great food and atmosphere

Our favorite spot for brunch

A staple on PEI and one of the best places for breakfast, lunch, or brunch. I ve been here a lot and I can say that it s consistently good without fail. Give it a try!

When I asked about their drip coffee, the servers did not have an answer for me as to what bean+roast they were using, as a former barista this was a red flag for me. My partner wanted a reg drip and was given an americano- had I been informed they don t offer drip and serve the single cup as an americano I would have cautioned him against this choice as he does not enjoy them. On a lighter note, we loved the space and the people. The food is healthy and seemingly fresh! Our breakfast was two eggs Frieda, the dish was over cooked and the waitress noticed it wasn t eaten, asked how it was and then comp d it from our bill. The owner then gave us a further discount at the till because my partner s Eggs Frieda was also overdone but we were reluctant to bring it up. I m amazed at this service- I will definitely be going back to give them another go as I ve heard many good things about all of the menu options.

Food is good, but overpriced for what it is. I would avoid the French toast.

Always a pleasure to dine here

Amazing local brunch place. Great layout and decor. Service was good, and food was delicious. A great spot to meet up with friends for a yummy brunch. Vanilla role is stellar. Would defiantly recommend.

Food, service, everything is amazing. Only place that I get a pastry to go so I can enjoy later. Only suggestion is that the owner expand so its easier to get in haha.

Delicious

Taking in the Canada Games festivities around Charlottetown, stopped in with my youngest for some desserts. The staff was super, the vanilla roll was incredible and prices were reasonable.

Awesome lunch. Very busy on a Monday lunch but wasnt a long wait. Very noisy today

Could be cozier (lots of white) but nice

Nothing beats starting your morning with a good breakfast.. Nice ambiance and decent menu Food

Visiting from New Brunswick and stopped in for lunch, Mitchell met us promptly at the door, was super friendly and had great service. The owner even checked in on us himself. Food was absolutely wonderful and the atmosphere of the café is a delight. Will be back again when we visit the island next time. Thanks for having us!

Decent food and service.

This was an absolutely fantastic find! Its on the small side and very busy, which considering the quality of food is no surprise! We hit this place up on a Sunday for brunch, and the inflow of people was steady! Staff were outstanding and very cheerful considering how very busy they are. We both had the Eggs Frieda with focaccia bread, and all I can say is wow...so delicious! The portion looks a bit small, but there is a lot going on in that dish, and it doesnt leave you still hungry by any stretch of the imagination! They also have a sandwich deli and desert bar that was quite busy with takeout. We took a couple of slices of vanilla loaf with us to eat that evening and OMG, heaven in a box! When we were paying and getting our to go desert at the counter, my wife reached for plastic forks, and the owner jokingly slapped her hand, it was so funny! Its refreshing to see a good sense of humor these days! Dont pass on this absolute gem!

The food is good The coffee needs some extra attention

Had a wonderful lunch with my brother at Leonhards! Didnt have to wait long to be seated, decor and atmosphere were great, servers were super friendly and food was delicious! My salad had some sort of mustard sauce on it which was really good and I ordered their Turkey Bacon Bagel Sandwich which was terrific. The place felt very homey and I would definitely go again.

very good food and service

This was great, I was never here before it was great food & a new food experience for me.

Surprisingly great and fantastic. We weren t expecting such a great experience in this little nook! The interior is rustic but refined, if that makes sense. Modern fittings with lots of trees. Like actual birch trees adorn the place. Lots of plants and chandeliers. The place is just beautiful. And the food is fantastic with a wide-ranging menu. We loved it.

Great place for lunch!! I love there different sandwiches. Nice people and comfy set-up.

The place is absolutely adorable for a Sunday brunch : it offer a modern and rustic blend. Fresh flowers adorned on each table making a charming atmosphere. The egg Benedict is really tasty with homemade hollandaise sauce, such a delight! Staffs are fast, polite and really helpful. We definitely looking forward to returning during our stay in PEI.

SUPERB coffee & tasty lunch.

Friendly service and good sandwiches!

Really great food, service and atmosphere

Everytime I have a friend from away I take them here. The owner is friendly and likes to chat, always a memorable experience! The food is great and pastrys go crazy. So many coffee and drinks options too and has to be one of the few places were the coffee actually tastes good. I cant recommend Leonhards enough

Great soup!!! Also loved the beet tart. And the log cake super scrumptious. Delicious all around, and owner was very nice:)!

Delicious food, everyone at our table was overjoyed with their meal. Extremely welcoming and helpful staff. Would highly recommend this cafe to anyone; they have numerous dietary-restriction friendly items on the menu.

We were lucky to get a spot on a Sunday at 1130, and while it was busy each person we spoke to was nice and helpful. The eggs were a bit overdone and the mustard dressing had a bit too much mustard but Im nitpicking. Definitely worth a go for brunch when youre in town.

Wow, I cant even begin to describe how incredible our breakfast was! I had the French toast, and it was the perfect balance of crispy and soft. My wife had the breakfast bagel and absolutely loved it! The everything bagel had tons of flavour and the omelette on top was fluffy and delish! The bacon was cooked perfect and they even made everything dairy free for her! The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. The portion sizes were generous, leaving us completely satisfied. The cozy atmosphere added to the overall experience. We cant recommend Leonhard s enough for an unforgettable breakfast.

A very nice German compatriot has built a place of comfort. Completely different from the same old cafés. Great atmosphere and delicious food. The owner came to talk and gave tips for the city must see.

Phenomenal ! Smoked salmon bagel was amongst the best we ve had. Bavarian Breakfast was delicious and a generous portion. Will definitely be back Food : 5/5 |

Incredible place for breakfast/brunch/lunch. Food is out of this world and service is very attentive. Highly recommend!

It was our first trip to PEI, and we started our first day with breakfast at Leonhards and it was just amazing. I had Eggs Benedict and every part of it was cooked to perfection - Hollandaise to the Muffins. Probably will end up eating here one more time and for anyone visiting PEI, do check out Leonhards

When I arrived, it was full with a line so we asked if we could be seated outside being nobody else wanted too and they allowed it which was nice since it was a little warm. The food was excellent and prices pretty well for a cafe as Ive seen many places over charge. Service was pretty good as well as the staff was friendly. I would visit again in the future and recommend it to anyone new in town. Parking: Parking is available in front as its paid street parking but there is free street parking around the corner all over.

The best branch so far. So cozy and great staff. Thank you. Food : 5/5

Such a lovely place. Great menu and taste. We are here multiple times on our visit to the Island.

Great food the schnitzel and coffee were great. The schnitzel could have been bigger though.

It was Google Map that suggested we come here. It was google map that suggested we come here. My meal was very delicious, I recommend everyone on vacation to go for a visit. My meal it was very delicious I recommend all the holidays to go for a ride.

Would appreciate a vat of the hollandaise sauce to go so I can have it with every meal for the rest of my life

One of my absolute favourite places to go. Fantastic menu, excellent coffee, love the atmosphere, friendly service and the owner is super cute =D

We really enjoyed our lunch and the service was great.

A surprise in the pub scenery around. Lovely greenery outside promises lovely food. Tasteful decor, kind service, great food.,

Been good in the past but very disappointed this time.

Good food, mediocre service

Wonderful food, service, atmosphere

Cute little spot. Food was great and flavourful but service was lacking. Sat for a long time before we were seen to the point I thought we maybe had to get up to order. The server was very nice and accommodating but did not check on us and each time I tried to get their attention they were walking away already. We also didnt receive our bill for so long we got up to pay and then waited longer there again and the person at the till seemed annoyed we couldnt provide a bill or our specific table number.

Good food, desserts, decorations & atmosphere

Busy and popular. Food, drinks and service was great

such a good brunch spot! the line was long but well worth the wait. my friend and i both got eggs benny, where i had the smoked salmon and he had the beets. both were very tasty and great portions. i also had a hazelnut latte which was a great pairing. id definitely return!

Nice spot for breakfast or coffee. Great atmosphere.

This place is by far the best breakfast spot on PEI, incredible food, service and it s absolutely adorable on the inside! Be sure to get there early on weekends, there s always a line of eager and hungry patrons!

Very, very good egg benedictine and breakfast. Because they forgot to serve our coffee at first, they removed the charge from the bill. This is what I call class and a way to turn a so-so experience to a very satisfied customer. Thanks and long life to this very well maintained restaurant! Food

Amazing food, service and very reasonably priced! Absolute must try!

Always great food. Best Eggs Benedict ever!

Great diner

Excellent location close to lots of hotels. Good food and coffee The omelette ingredients sit inside the flipped egg and not chopped up inside. Had an odd vegan menu. Excellent dairy free latte but dairy free food usually means they just hold the cheese.

We picked up sandwiches to go here and the service was great. The owner was very friendly and the food was exceptional! Very reasonably priced - would definitely recommend!

Lovely spot! Yummy food and fast and friendly service. Would definitely come back here.

Food are delicious. It takes longer to wait in the weekends, however it s a nice place to go for a weekend brunch.

Superb croissant and strong coffee.

Theres a reason why theres a constant flow of folks showing up to have breakfast - this place is awesome. We were able to sit outside without a wait which allowed up to say hi to the parade of cute dogs that walked by. My partner had what he described as the best eggs benedict in a long time. while I had a very tasty roasted turkey bagel sandwich. The ingredients are all better quality than the norm and coffee is top notch.

This is a really cute place, but extremely busy. Its a restaurant/ take out place, and I found the entrance a little confusing. There are not many tables for larger groups so they will wait longer than a party of two. The food, however, is very tasty and nicely presented. We had the Eggs Benedict and the Breakfast Sandwich, both served with a nice salad and potatoes. The coffee was very good. The service was very friendly and efficient. You pay at the takeout coffee bar, so there is some congestion in the line up. Overall, though, I would go back and would also try their takeout bar (the sandwiches looked really yummy!)

Delicious food with a beautifully decorated location, would recommend!

Kid-friendliness: Chaise haute disponible Food

Lovely spot to enjoy breakfast!

Fun experience, tasty food. Often lined up out the door.

Such a vintage awesome style, and amazing food. Really enjoyed it

Best place for breakfast & coffee

Came here while on vacation and we loved it so much we went back 2 more times in a matter of days. Very fresh and flavourful food and the servers are very friendly. Place is busy but very worth the wait.

Wow. Great spot. Best choice for breakfast and lunch in town. We went three times after checking out the rest.

We are a group of 10 people coming here for a holiday, we re lucky that we came here at 8:50am and wait until the open time (9am). It s super busy right after that, and 9:30-10:00 there s a huge line up already. Food was awesome, service was friendly, fast and energetic. I recommend their homemade sandwiches. Veggie dishes are available too. Great atmosphere, pretty decoration and delicious food made our day. Will come back next time. Vegetarian options: Veggie, nutrition and delicious. Parking: Parking is free in weekends i think, and paid parking on weekdays. It s near downtown so the parking spots are limited, be sure you drop your friend here to get in line first, and you drive to find a parking spot (around the corner), at the point you re done with parking spot, your friend will have a table for everyone too. Be productive.

Everything is so delicious and the atmosphere is nice ! It can be fairly busy in the morning. The montreal sandwich was SO good and the ciabatta bread was very fresh. The desserts are also very good.

Absolutely incredible. 10/10 recommended. I had the French toast. Delicious. My other half got the turkey bacon club and loved it

Go to breakfast place. God bless them. Eggs bene with guacamole and jalapeños sause and ham is a cheat code. Thank me later.

Nice breakfast poutine. Beautiful clean ambience.

Leonhards is a charming cafe that effortlessly combines comfort with outstanding food and beverages. The interior is charming, and the smell of freshly ground coffee beans is prominent throughout the cafe. Everything I ordered was fresh, and you could tell they care about the quality of everything they serve. They take the time to ensure the presentation of what you order is as lovely as it tastes, which is just another reason to adore this place.

Everything was amazing

Thanks for the great food

Great food, quick service with a smile and a nice little atmosphere to grab a quick bite! The Ham and Havarti omelette was perfect. And one of the few places on the island to grab a Coke!!

The breakfast was delicious and healthy (eggs Benedict - the salad with it was great). Service also very friendly. The café is well attended, and that says it all. When we left it was already completely full and people were standing outside (so come as early as possible for breakfast). The only point of criticism: Coffee latte was served in a glass without a handle. How do you come up with ideas like this?...

Good food, but the service was bad.

There was a slug on my salad, alive and crawling, as well as on another guests salad. They were made aware but still charged $18 for a meal that couldnt be eaten.

MUST VISIT IN CHARLOTETTOWN!! Best place in the city for brunch! The menu is very wide and has lots of options for all palates. It gets quite busy because it is THAT good. The personal is very attentive and very close to talk to. Cant wait to be back when Im in the city!

Food is expensive but worth every nickle! Staff is friendly and great atmosphere! Food

Honestly, slay

Had a fantastic breakfast bagel complimented perfectly by a garden salad with curry mayo. Didn t want it to end. Iced caramel latte is worth the trip alone!

Food is good nd the staff is very polite

Food was good however service was inadequate. Not friendly at all. Didn t ask how our food was and when we were finished she brought the bill and didn t ask if we would like a coffee or dessert. I guess she had better things to do than give proper service.

Disappointing service. We were waiting for about 10 mins and when we moved forward to sit down at the waiting chair, the moment we moved forward to wait, they served the couple behind us and ignored us. We stood there and felt like we were invisible, no one working there was acknowledge us standing there waiting for a the whole 10 mins and but the moment we moved spots and the couple behind us was visible to them, those customers were immediately acknowledged and was asked if they wanted a table for two and got sat down while we were still obviously waiting. We obviously looked confused wondering why they were got a table first and all the waiter did was glance at us and asked table for two?. We wouldve really appreciated if someone has just let us know that someone will be with us shortly or atleast a hello or welcome or let us know why the people behind us got a table first even though we have been waiting before them. I could understand that it was a busy day, or if the couple had reservations before and I dont wait to assume or accuse anyone of anything but at that moment we felt like we were experiencing discrimination or racism (I am asian and my friend is black, the couple behind us was white, the waiters were also mostly white). We walked out after waiting for another few minutes. We came to Leonhards a few times before and really enjoyed their food and the owners hospitality. I dont know what today was but it really left a bad impression of Leonhards on us and we will not likely visit again.

Cute little breakfast bistro in the heart of Downtown Charlottetown. The smoked meat omelet is amazing, and they make a strong Mimosa. Servers are always friendly and inviting.

Truly a wonderful atmosphere. Very good menu Double long expresso nice balance. Staff two thumbs up This cafe would be standing room only in the Town that I live in.

Charlottetown for work and had an amazing breakfast salmon and dill cream cheese omelette. It was great and very friendly service. Definitely would recommend

Really great place to visit in Charlottetown. Food was fantastic. Great espresso too!
