"Imagine being such a loser that you give a 1 start review because a small business is cutting costs by using A.I. This place is AMAZING. The staff were extremely polite. It was busy but they still found time to be kind. The atmosphere was pleasant. I would happily come back here. Stop expecting 6 star dining for $10 bagel sandwiches. Like hello? Give this place a try. It was great. Shout out to the smoked salmon bagel sandwich. Keep up the great work, Westdale Café. Running a small business is tough. You're doing awesome :) P.s I literally watched a student come in with a competitor's drinks, sit down, not buy anything and then be rude to the owner when she inquired. The business isn't the problem. This type of student is."

"Went here for Valentines breakfast with my partner and it was so cute! The atmosphere was wholesome and the food was yummy! We ordered smoked salmon and prosciutto bagels along with lavender matcha and an Italian soda. The cashier was so kind and even gave us two heart shaped cookies for Valentine’s Day! Will def come again :)"
