We had an amazing lunch on the outside patio. Serve was great and food was excellent. I had the tandoori wrap with the roast veggie salad. YUMMY! I would go back in a heartbeat and if I lived here it would be a regular hangout:)

Great venue for musical talent they bring in regularly. Best to buy tickets in advance for nighttime entertainment. Also small but nice outside patio for lunch and interesting interior for a good meal at other times. Located downtown on eclectic Front Street. Nice, and relaxing

A very romantic place to take your sweetie for dinner and a show. I love the seating arrangements. There is not a bad seat in the place. Pierre is awesome and a terrific host who takes fabulous care of you the minute you walk in till the time you leave.

We loved the Dream Café, the music was great, the ambiance is totally there. The food main was ok but we had the toffee desert which was very good! They also have good wines and the whole experience was really nice. We will definitely go back to see more live music there!

We showed up around 17:30 without reservation on Saturday before Easter and had no trouble getting a decent table, overlooking the side of the stage. The food (we chose the daily special beef stew) was yummy, and we could have eaten twice the portion having spent the day hiking (would have been fine though on a normal day). A fantastic... More

We came in for dinner and entertainment. This is such a wonderful venue for getting 'up close and personal' with the entertainment. Meaning that many of the tables are within feet of the stage, but all the tables give a good view of the stage. This is "The Place" for jazz and blues in Penticton. Try the baked Parmesan Chicken...

I dropped in for lunch on a Friday afternoon, and found both the decor and the service to be excellent. I ordered the Kari Kacang with "soup #2" and was very pleased with the flavours of both. Coffee was good as well. The ambiance there is really quite splendid, and the room is setup such that you could see the... More

A Caribbean influenced menu and atmosphere. Very nice looking place, and the food held a lot of promise..... while the orders took some time to arrive, the food was good...our group had the fritatta, chorizo eggs benny and kari kacang/veggie samosa combo with a veggie barley soup.....I wasnt overly impressed with the look of the chorizo eggs benny, but my...

This place is awesome...the seating seemed very tight but then we realized the seating is in a tiered semi circle around a stage where there are evening performances on a regular basis. We had just stopped in for lunch. The food was pretty good, not the best I've ever had, but the ambience makes up for it!
