Best Indian food north of Surrey. The lamb curry was amazing. Came in for a late breakfast and ended up having a feast. Surprisingly good coffee. Lovely staff too.
This coffee shop used to be amazing and a true gem of Fort St John - people loved the eclectic atmosphere that invited every one to sit, chill and enjoy a laid back atmosphere. The menu was simple with breakfast, soup, sandwiches and salads, yet it was fresh and unlike anything else you could get in Fort St John. Lunch time was packed and you had to come early to get a table. It was by far one of the best places in town. New owners came in within the last year and now it's terrible. It no longer feels welcoming, it no longer has the cute little hippy coffee shop vibe, and the food is BAD. On one occasion my soup was watery and tasteless and on a second try, my food was burnt. When asked why I didn't finish my meal, I explained that it was burnt and I didn't even get a apologize or offer for another one. The server just brushed me off. Also, rather than just walking up to the counter and ordering your food - they now have servers which I feel actually is a negative. I just want to order my food and get it and be left alone, not have someone keep coming to my table to be waited on. Unfortunately I will not be back after being a regular customer for over 10 years. Its just not worth it anymore. We have lost a beautiful place.
Very great place to chill with your family and friends must recommend. Great new coffees options as well as best Indian food in fsj.
Had an incredible dining experience at whole wheat and honey cafe/ second chapter indian cuisine with family. Amazing food with authentic flavours. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving great Indian cuisine.
I got hot chocolate and it was subpar. It seemed like half the drink was foam and it was warm but not hot. Flavour was okay but very sweet. The service was satisfactory but it was fairly slow. Got the job done but no extra effort. The atmosphere was alright. Clean and well kept. It lacked warmth though and didn't feel cozy like a cafe should.
Just stopped by to grab an iced coffee and escape the sweltering heat. Nicely air conditioned, nice atmosphere, and the food menu looks good. Our iced mochas weren't mixed, and instead just had syrup at the bottom.
The atmosphere is so cute and the menu seemed quite good from the pictures but boy were we mistaken. I got the shredded salad which was not shredded and they were big hard pieces to eat and was missing the candied nuts and the dressing tasted just okay. My bf got a donair wrap which was dry. Maybe we made the mistake of ordering a donair and a salad at a cafe but if you’re going to put something on a menu make sure you make it well or get rid of it.
We had an amazing breakfast at Whole Wheat and Honey cafe. Food was tasty and we had selected their Caesar chicken wrap. Specially thanking to the lady, who prepared our coffee. Really cool Latte arts. Highly recommended!!
Consistent food, service and atmosphere . Local and fresh served by friendly staff .
Ordered a veggie burger few days ago at 7:20pm It was supposed to be delivered before 8:40pm but arrived at 9pm. The whole burger was cold One burger took more than 1 hour to be delivered. What can we expect on big orders then?
best coffee in town !!
I recently visited whole wheat and honey and had a wonderful experience! The cafe has a cozy and inviting vibe, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff were incredible and attentive, making my visit even more enjoyable.
We enjoyed a great dinner at Second Chapter Indian Cuisine/Whole Wheat and Honey. Fort St John has now several choices for Indian cuisine and Second Chapter is a wonderful addition. I also appreciate the Whole Wheat and Honey continuing breakfast menu and cafe offerings in morning!
This was an unexpected treat! Service was exceptional, the Indian food was tasty and comforting, enjoyed in a nice cozy atmosphere. Well be back on our next trip through FSJ!
There tandoori items are 10/10.
Went for dinner. Fantastic staff. Food wasnt half bad.
They do not honor their gift certificates quoting that the previous owner would get the money. Not proper business practice in BC. The purchase deal would likely have included a receivable for outstanding gift certificates. The purchaser of mine also purchased 2 others for $100.00 each. Thats quite a slap in the face for supporting local.
To start off on a good note, the atmosphere of this place is pretty good. The café is really cute and has lovely decor. My partner and I came here because the coffees looked really good. On this morning, we got here and saw that smoothies were available. My partner and I both got a smoothie but ended up not liking them. The smoothie was kind of bland with a mostly milk flavor and hint of berry. We are kind people and don t like to make a fuss, but after some bravery work, we decided to politely ask to try a coffee because we didn t really like the smoothie. We felt bad for asking for a refund, but we did get one for one of the smoothies. The young blonde/brown haired staff was super sweet and brought us the coffee we had bought to replace the smoothie. After trying the coffee, it was obvious that we made a wrong initial decision with getting the smoothie. The coffee was really good and I would definitely recommend this place if you re looking for a good coffee.
One of best in the town appreciate the taste
i came in like a week ago and i wanna say that i enjoyed it so much!! the food, the service and the atmosphere was amazing. i definitely recommend this place. will be coming back !!
The best food in town, service is A class must try food. Keep up the good work
Excellent coffee and very kind service, I can really recommend the bacon and cheese omelet and the hot chocolate :)
Best
Used to be a great spot in town to get breakfast or brunch and enjoy the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the servers don t understand basic serving skills, the food is incredibly mediocre at best and the foil sandwich wrappers were greasy on the outside not likely going back unless ownership takes a major direction shift and trains their staff.
I can see why the cafe was recommended by everyone we asked. Fantastic curry, great service and reasonable prices. So good!
Very good experience in this cafe. Manpreet was our server, she was amazing. Very tasty food. Recommend to visit this cafe .
The curry I just have was delicious and the customer service is awesome.
Worst karahi chicken i ever had.
Very nice ambience and excellent coffee! Vegetarian options: Tasty salads
Fantastic service, good food & coffee, great atmosphere.
The food is great both breakfast and lunch! The staff is super friendly I loved the atmosphere! Will definitely frequent this place.I Love the new menus!
The palak paneer and garlic naan were very good.
I went to the WWHC yesterday with my father and step mom for our last meal in BC before they headed home to Ontario. I had always wanted to visit and was impressed by the decor and vibes walking in. However, only two young girls were working, one cooking 1 in the kitchen. Our server did not take our order even remotely correctly, and myself and step mom were served half of our meals (the rest showed up later and was wrong), then 15 minutes later my dads arrived and it was completely wrong. He ended up cancelling the order all together. I tried to buy a bag of coffee beans but the server did not know how to ring them up, the cook came out and said she would have to call her supervisor to find out how to charge me for the beans. I just said forget it. The place has potential but please train your staff properly. For $20 a meal we expected better. Disappointing.
They fired half of the old staff for no reason when new owners took over.
I have to take back my 5 star review and give 1 star, unfortunately. The café is no longer a café since the business sold and is now some sort of Indian fusion restaurant with a contemporary lunch menu. This business used to be a hub for local creatives and healthy, home-cooked, breakfast and lunch, but it s now been commercialized into just another Indian restaurant that fired a bunch of employees to hire family members. Very sad to see this business go downhill the way it has.
Sad to say that recently my experiences here have not been good. I ve been coming here for years and recently have noticed that the quality of food and service to have gone down significantly. When you walk in the staff members barely greet you and seem like they don t want to be there. They won t bring you a menu right away (even when they see you sit down and you ve been waiting for a while), and rush you when taking your order (to then forget half your order). The soups are salty now and the sandwiches are greasy. What used to be a good atmosphere to study or converse with friends is now riddled with the smell of burned grease and poor service. I never ever write reviews, but I m really disappointed to see one of my favourite spots in town go downhill. Oh! And watch that they don t charge you twice. Overall, I really hope that these issues are only temporary, if not, then unfortunately I will have to say goodbye to Whole Wheat & Honey.
this cafe is really cute and atmosphere is very calm and positive. never disappointed with the food service and employees are very friendly. always welcome with the smile. the best thing is they r open for dinner as well. so excited about it i will definitely recommend this cafe to my friends and family
Food and beverage were really good . Ambience is perfect .Staff was great.
I had great experience with 2nd chapter.. food was great n staff was really friendly
They served me a cold chicken sandwich on the wrong bread, small serving of soup that was mediocre, (with no spoon! I had to ask.) There were chunks of unblended ice in my smoothie, and tracking down a server was a task of its own as they all sat behind the counter on their phones. Probably the worst experience Ive had in town, and they were snappy and rude when I didnt tip. Used to love Whole Wheat & Honey but I will never return.
I dont know whats happened to WWH. Im assuming the business was sold and the new owners are trying to keep some of the original menus items on. They are not doing those items justice. The menu is more broad now, but that isnt always a good thing. At our table of four, we ordered from the breakfast, lunch, and appetizer sections. Nothing was terrible, but nothing was extraordinary or so delicious that Id make an effort to go back for. This was disappointing because we brought our family from out of town and chose this location for their tasty reputation. The server was friendly, but she wasnt knowledgeable of the menu or basic server actions such as offering water, bringing utensils, or clearing dishware. She also took one of the orders incorrectly. From this experience, I wont be going back anytime soon, but I would like to give them a go in the future to see if theyve improved.
Coffee was good, but the food was terrible. They really need to charge a bit more and make food that s enjoyable to eat. Food
Had an amazing time at the cafe! The waffle was delicious, highly recommend it! Will definitely be back for more!
Excellent breakfast, great atmosphere, but absolutely hostile and standoffish staff when I went. Lady constantly rolled her eyes and Im not even sure why.
This cozy cafe is a gem! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal or coffee break. The menu offers a great selection of freshly made dishes and drinks, all of which are delicious. The staff are friendly and provide excellent service. Highly recommend stopping by for a delightful experience!
Tried this place today felt git ripped off,soup &sandwich..soup was tasteless and runny,sandwich was good,told the new ownership belongs in the garbage,the clueless new owner,cant have much experience in food business clueless about damage control...TOLD Crook and the cook or I have a Red Seal in cooking & 20 plus yrs experience .I can give you cooking lessons..never going back there again,1st and last time..this town lacks places,where the food has taste
I was so surprised by this cafe. The ladies are all super upbeat and friendly. The food was so tasty, and they took pride in their coffee. This will be my regular go to while in town. Highly recommend.
Yup they got the food. I went back here a second time and ate the food again.
Great place to sit down and enjoy a delicious breakfast or lunch. Today was a Creamy Tomato Soup with a Grilled Honey Ham Sandwich. Felt relaxed and was able to fully enjoy enjoy my meal. Wheelchair accessibility: Right after entering the door, there is immediately a ramp rather then steps to allow people to get in with no issues.
The Kale soup was very salty for someone who has high blood pressure.
A nice lively cafe! Highly recommend
Great food, Great people, Great service, Amazing atmosphere. Ive been coming here since I was a child and now that Im in high school its honesty an amazing place to do my homework and get amazing food. plus there coffee is the best Ive had so far
Very nice atmosphere with tasty sandwiches and soups. A great place for lunch!
Stumbled upon this little gem of a cafe, and lets just say we will definitely be returning. My son got a yummy hot chocolate and a grilled cheese sandwich. He said it is one of the best grilled cheese hed had in a long time!!
Delicious food and good service
Had lunch with a few colleagues - mine was OK but not awe-inspiring, which, I think, is the vibe they are after. My colleague s sandwiches looked the same, like something your mom would make. Staff were very friendly, wooden chairs and table s uncomfortable, lots of tasty-looking treats suited for morning coffee, but I didn t indulge. Great place for a somewhat plain but very economical meal.
Really good chicken and beef donair wraps.
Easily the best atmosphere in town. Great food and great service. If youre looking for a place for a date or to sit by yourself and read a book. This is where you want to go.
Food is very good value for the price very nice atmosphere
The best espresso macchiato in FSJ, hands down. This gem is a must-visit whenever I come through town. Great coffee, great baking great service. Food : 5/5
Good food and drinks, friendly staff, chill atmosphere. Go! It s worth it.
Very clean establishment, friendly staff and a wonderful healthy menu. Possibly the best London Fog Ive ever drank.
Trying to support more non-chain restaurants when I stumbled upon this cute cafe. Ordered a London fog (to DIE for). Very dissatisfied with treatment of staff however. I could hear the manger degrading other staff all the way at the front of the house. I thought local restaurants were meant to have a homey atmosphere but instead was greeted with an environment more hostile than my divorced parents together at my graduation. Vegetarian options: Loved the vegetarian options
Cute little cafe. Got busy around lunch
Loved their complete breakfast.
The place in FSJ to stop for a quick bite. Service is awesome.
I always stop in at least once when I visit FSJ. THE COFFEE IS AMAZING but its the connections here too. The staff and customers are just always lovely Food
Stopped in for breakfast on a Thursday morning before a flight out of Fort St John. The food was delicious and came out of the kitchen hot and fresh. The menu was great with a little something for everyone and the staff were friendly and helpful. Get the jam if you order toast, it is homemade and delicious
Friendly, great service and super tasty food. I will return again. Dietary restrictions: Have gluten free options for their wraps. It was delicious. Food : 5/5 |
This is the cutest place. Busy, but not too packed. I could feel how happy everyone was right when I came in. I m not local but I could tell almost everyone in here knew each other, which gives it good vibes. Young lady at the counter was very sweet and when I got my coffee I was so happy I took a picture. (I m not one to take pics of my orders) soup and sandwich was great and everything was worth the price. I ve already recommended this cafe to many people. Just beautiful.
Cozy place to have a hot drink and lunch. The baristas are very nice, and the atmosphere is very warm though it can get busy at times.
This is the place for coffee and espresso in ft st John!
They have GF preference options. I was delighted with my egg sandwich and London Fog breakfast. It was delicious Dietary restrictions: They have wonderful GF bread!
Right in the centre of Fort St. John. A must stop for breakfast lunch or coffee/snack. Their Pumpkin Spice Latte is delicious! Fresh baked goods, soups, salads and sandwiches with GF options. Dine in or take out. Wonderful service - Upbeat modern atmosphere!
Best cafe in FSJ
Unfortunately the quality of the food has gone down considerably, certainly not like they used to be, the breakfast burritos are more tortilla wrap than filling, the wrap lately has been dry and on the stale side, their vegetarian soups lately are so thin watery and lack flavour, never mind their scones that are constantly overbaked and dry, instead of being light buttery and flakey like a scone is supposed to be, the flavour and texture of the hummus is not consistent and canola oil is being used in the hummus, I was mortified! Certainly no longer my favourite place, been hearing its for sale so hopefully the new owners make some huge improvements cuz they sure need it. In the meantime waiting on the Cafe across the street to open their kitchen. Wont be back to Wholewheat and Honey any time soon.
Best soup Ive ever had.
Ive had nothing but great experiences here for breakfast, snacks and coffees. The cardamom latte was outstanding!
Great home made food, best soup and sandwich shop in town!!
Great wholesome food and also great customer service, these lady s went above and beyond to do a good job!
Great little spot where we understand the food is fabulous. We didnt get to eat this time, we wanted a beer with lunch. Maybe its something to consider adding.
Great breakfast and good Americanos.
Several people recommended this eatery to me. Wonderful coffee beverages and amazing food that pleased my fussy grandchildren and the rest of us (vegetarian and regular eaters). Great muffins!!!
Great food and customer service
I love this place so much. Their grilled cheese is phenomenal and although I haven t had it, I ve also heard incredible things about the hot chocolate.
Very nice. Had a great breakfast. The coffee was also great. The staff were friendly and there was great atmosphere
Such a friendly staff I am on a bike travel and needed to refill my super small coffee container ( 150g) They grinded the coffee for me as i requested and gave me a fair price. For me: good coffee makes me feel like home in Europe I would def go back here and recommend you to do the same, the to go coffee is great too
Freshly made breakfast fare that is satisfying and delicious. Great cappuccino and eggs benny. Cozy atmosphere that is perfect for a sit down meal or a quick grab and go.
Coffee and baked goods were great
Delicious breakfast. Welcoming atmosphere.
So cute good Cafe
Fantastic food made fresh. Every soup and sandwich has been amazing. Staff is attentive and happy. Will continue to come here.
Some may wonder what is the meaning of life, those that know choose Whole Wheat and Honey!
The environment here is so comforting, the service is outstanding, and the food is top notch. LOVE IT!
One of my favourite places to stop in the Peace Country!
Good food, excellent staff. The reduced seating actually makes it about right for spacing.
Great food, great coffee, casual and comfy. By far the best place for coffee in Fort St John
Great cafe!
Always great.
Breakfast burritos were very tasty!
What a delightful little place to go for breakfast or lunch, amazing atmosphere, and equally amazing friendly staff.
Was pleasant enough, breakfast sandwich was tasty and smoothie was good. Priced a little high but everything was made fresh. Clean place and nice atmosphere.
Excellent coffee!!! I asked for a cappuccino and it was on of the best that I have ever drunk in Canada! I definitely recommend it!!
Absolutely amazing store! Love the atmosphere and everything is made fresh! Will definitely be coming here more often, excellent job!
Food was good,freindly environment.service was good....
Had the daily special, which was delicious!
Great food at affordable prices!
Love the food here and all the drink options. Great atmosphere to sit and have a visit with friends.
No health discrimination here. Amazing coffee and food
So nice
Excellent food and service.
Coffee was not very good , food just ok
Come for a visit to a place thats more civilized and refined than most of fort st john. Excellent coffeeshop.
Delicious, love going there for soup & sandwich of the day.
Always awesome food and great atmosphere!!
Not welcoming at all. Staff clearly don t like their jobs and seem miserable.
Great fresh baking
Terrific service. I went for breakfast as I was passing through town for a day and came back for lunch because it was so delicious and healthy. Food is homemade, allergy conscious, with a terrific variety. Christie, the manager, was very pleasant and welcoming!
Great food & Mika is adorable.
They have a wonderful atmosphere
This is the best espresso bar in FSJ. Breakfast is great too. Atmosphere is nice and prices are fair compared to the quality you get.
I love their warm atmosphere, amazing staff and the most delicious Chai Lattes! One of my favourite places to edit and relax!
Delicious squash soup. Fast and efficient service. Very addictive cinnamon buns!
christina is awesome to talk to and order from. she made my day better, amazing coffee and great fresh food. my girls love this cafe. keep it up :)
Love the food classic style
Could have been a great cafe it sucks the artist took back the atmosphere...
Great ambiance and delicious food. Gluten free and dairy free options available. A Fort St John gem.
Cute decor. Some staff are friendlier than others. Service is always slow and there are very few dairy or lactose free options for coffee, which is pretty standard nowadays. Convenient location and good sandwiches.
Best cafe in town. Always healthy, fresh food with daily specials and great coffee drinks and baked goods
Cozy place, great soup and sandwiches
I like this place alot. The coffee is great and the staff are quick and friendly.
We enjoyed that place food was good
A gem in FSJ for breakfast or lunch.
Good food great atmosphere
Great atmosphere. Excellent food and hot beverages. And never disappointed with the service
I go to this place on Saturday mornings for their eggs Benedict. It is the best in town. Also, the staff seem very queer friendly.
Excellent home made food! Ive been both times Ive visited FSJ and loved it!!
I decided to grab a coffee here and from the minute I walked in the whole atmosphere made me uncomfortable. From the strange looks I received from customers to the total ignoring from staff I felt totally un welcome. Now Im used to this snobby, elitest attitude from big city establishments but not here. I dont know why this over priced joint gets so many good reviews, Ive had better treatment and service at McDonalds, they could learn a few things from them. I ended up walking out and going over to the coffee shop in the cultural center where I was actually treated like a valued customer.
Such a lovely, cozy space and amazing food!
Food was yummy, fast and friendly atmosphere
I ate lunch here both days I was in Fort Saint John. Delicious sandwiches and tummy warming soups. Nice decor and relaxing, local vibe. Fast, friendly service. Good prices. Give them a try - you ll be glad you did.
Great place for a coffee or a soup and sandwich.
Great place to relax
Delish very friendly
Amazing pricing, and great food. Comparable to popular locations in the lower mainland!
Very well priced, simple and delicious food with fresh ingredients
Always great service and awesome food
Just popped in for a coffee while waiting for a friend to pick me up, and I m glad I did. The cafe is quite big, but it still had a very cozy feel. The staff were all friendly and helpful, and service was prompt. The cappuccino I had was good, the espresso strong and foam silky. If I m ever in Fort St. John again I ll have to try something from the menu here. I also loved the wall of Hogwarts Houses. Definitely gave a cafe a bit of a charming, nerdy appeal!
Great healthy selection, quick service! Lovely place.
Always awesome!
First time here - I ordered a Thai noodle salad which was delicious. The person taking my order was very helpful and friendly. The food came quickly which was nice during the busy lunch hour. The decor is very rustic and casual and it was enjoyable to sit and talk with my lunch companions whike we ate. I felt like the menu is good value for the money and I would definitely visit again next time Im in town.
Great breakfast burritos and awesome coffee. Also great service and staff.
Great soup & sandwich! Pleasant service!
great food and service, fantastic atmosphere
Nice friendly place
It was awesome
Only customer in line and took 15 min to get the coffee. The flat whites were lattes but the baked goods were delicious.
Have one of their special coffees made with oat milk! Best coffee anywhere. The food is fantastic too.
Good
Great place to eat or go for a coffee the staff is so polite the food is delicious and they have a great variety of coffees and specialties along with a variety of tea and delicious cinnamon buns
Very nice and cozy. Super friendly. Good prices.
Service levels poor and staff very self involved.
Comfortable sitting space. Great warm drinks. Quick service and staff is on the ball.
