"Before I ordered something to eat from this cafe. I got cancelled from IGA and Thai restaurant. I wasn’t well and nothing left in my fridge. I didn’t have energy to go grab food or medication. So thank you to make my day and make me feel accepted. Your coffee was lovely, the chicken wrap was ok but the carrot cake was top notch."

"First time, in over a year, I've ordered from the Workshop. Customer services is still fantastic. Also. This is a boutique-type of cafe, so don't expect to find jumbo coffee for 3 bucks, plain ham/cheese sandwiches, or an extensive menu. If you have dietary requirements, I've found they are happy to accommodate, if they can."
