We got the farmer’s waffle and an iced mocha. The portion of the farmer’s waffle is very generous and comes with a side of salsa and maple syrup. The salsa in particular is a nice touch, it’s a great palate cleanser between savory bites. Very reasonably priced. Also the whipped cream is delicious!

I had the best time at James' Twisted Mint! The team is super friendly and full of humor, making the whole experience so much fun. My friend and I enjoyed our drinks, and the best part was when the server brought us free popcorn with a smile and just told us to enjoy—it was such a sweet touch! I hadn’t been for a while, but once I came back to Courtenay, I knew I had to stop by this cute little spot. It’s perfect for chatting with friends in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. One thing I regret is being too full before I came, so I couldn’t finish their famous milkshake. I’ll definitely be back next time to try it properly!

First time visit. it's a very small, honestly retro (not fake) sort of little mom and pop diner. the service was awesome, the prices are so reasonably low it is restores your faith in the restaurant experience, and the place while not fancy is very clean. Homemade burger with a ton of fries for $12.50......you can't do that at a fast food joint. Salad was loaded with cranberries and nuts and bacon....Tea was $1. and the people were genuinely really nice. why go elsewhere....
