This was one place that we went to once or twice a day when we were in Norris Point. The food was great and the staff was friendly and attentive. Interesting menu choices and more self-serve with a very friendly cafe atmosphere. Will miss then when we go home. Only thing that would be added value would be for them to offer dinner hours and more outdoor seating. Well done to the staff.

I wish I found this place sooner in my stay. After a wonderful boat tour of Bonne Bay we stopped here to pick up lunch to go. Grilled sandwiches, salads and all the treats we bought (coffee cake, lemon square, cookies) were all absolutely delicious. We went back for treats for another day too! There is so much fresh homemade goods to please everyone. Staff were friendly and place was clean and tastefully decorated. We highly recommend 😊

My girlfriend and I stopped by and were very impressed. There were many food choices, the brownies were amazing, and the lattes we had were delicious. The best part was definately the staff, they were very friendly and jovial. The young woman who served us was incredibly patient while we decided what to have; she was friendly and happy and I left a tip for her service. We will definitely be coming back if we're in the area again!

Those brownies are sinful aren't they! I'm so happy you enjoyed our cafe and thank you for the shout out to our staff, they certainly deserve it!

We couldn’t have asked for a nicer spot! I have celiac and I had a scrumptious egg, cheese, and tomato sandwich ( sandwich press designated for gf only) and a handful of potato chips. Clean as a whistle, friendly staff, good food, and very reasonably priced!

Stopped in for a quick coffee and a snack to go. It was my first time visiting the Old Store Café. The café is neat and well laid out. One thing I appreciated is that their food & beverage menus are clearly displayed with pricing, which is something cafés often lack. We had a black bottom muffin, or more affectionately known as “Gull Sh*t Muffin” there, a blueberry partridgeberry scone and a regular coffee. Everything was great! The muffin was huge, and the best I’ve had for sure. The scone was also delicious and fresh. They had breakfast and lunch options that we did not try, but they looked delicious as well. Definitely would visit again!

We had a really delicious lunch in this great looking restaurant. A family member who is in a wheelchair was with us, and we were grateful for the ramp at the front of the building for easy entry. The only problem is that this business does not have an accessible bathroom. A bit baffling for a restaurant that looks as if was renovated not long ago.

We stopped in here for a quick lunch and loved the food and service. The sandwiches and soup were excellent, and we couldn't leave without trying dessert too. Staff were very sweet to our kids and the decor was lovely with lots of local art hung on the walls.

What an unexpected and great find in Norris Point! We were not expecting to have access to such great lattes in a small town like Norris Point but we are so glad we found The Old Store Cafe! We tried the regular latte, almond milk latte, and the decaf latte and all were excellent. The Gull Sh*t muffin and croissant were both delicious and moist. I also enjoyed tte breakfast panini. Its worth the short drive from Rocky Harbour to get your coffee here.

I so love this place. Keep coming on a regular basis for their lattes which are truly excellent, even though I’m 1.5 hours away. Of course the drive there and back along the Humber river and into Gros Morne is breathtaking. I had the beef and vegetable pot pie a few weeks ago and man was it good. And large. And the beef was tender and plentiful. And the pastry was flaky. I usually eat a pot pie smothered in ketchup. But not here. Way way too good to adulterate it with ketchup. Today I had a vegetable curry (you can have it mild, medium or hot - I had it medium). I’m usually reluctant to order vegetarian dishes at any restaurant because I’m usually disappointed - vegetables overcooked, bland taste. But I’ve liked everything else in this restaurant so far, so I gave it a shot. Amazingly good! And I’m not exaggerating. Great variety of vegetables. Steaming hot. Everything al dente. Special toppings which I’m not sure what they were but they sure added to the variety of flavours. Really looking forward to having this dish again. Great little place. Also great staff.

Lovely little spot. We stopped for lunch and were most pleasantly surprised by the vegetable curry and the black bean panini that we had. Both were very flavourful and nicely presented. Neither of us are vegetarian but so glad we opted for these. The latte and mochachino were well prepared and tasty. Would highly recommend a stop here!

Not a lot of places for lunch in the area but this place certainly takes the cake and makes the sandwiches. Ate here twice in our 4 days in the area. Try the carrot cake. Free refills on the coffee would be nice. The staff was friendly and the food good.

We were pleasantly surprised when we stopped here for lunch. The chicken curry (veg option) was so delicious. With so many places closed we went back a second time. My wife had the breakfast sandwich the second day and it was excellent. Sit outside and you have a view of the Tablelands.

A great place to stop for a quick lunch. Service was quick, the food and latte was great. I was full after my sandwich so didn’t indulge in sweets, but they looked quite good. Tables inside and out are well spaced for physical distancing.

The best coffee in Newfoundland! Great breakfast croissant and although toast not on menu the server made it for my husband. This gal has the biggest smile and warmest personality. Highly recommend a stop here,
