This is a sweet local spot! I came for a latte and was back the next day with my two brothers. Sue was very kind and welcoming. The lattes aren't competition style, but they are humble and strong and delicious. They use local milk and cream in their drinks from a nearby dairy which I think is very cool. I haven't tried any of the food items yet, but I look forward to doing so. The place has a friendly rural vibe, and several of the staff have charming English accents.

I went to Humble Root when another restaurant was inexcusably closed. I am glad I did though because Humble Root Cafe & Deli is an exceptionally great place for breakfast and lunch. Despite the small venue space, the place was very popular. Even though it was busy, it did not take long for me to get a table.

This restaurant has two separate food menus: one for general customer, and a vegan menu for healthier alternatives. I ordered the Brisket & Gnocchi Hash with coffee. The coffee was pretty good and saw myself having second cup. The hash was exceptionally good. The brisket meat was good, even with some fat on it while the au jus sauce was great. The gnocchi were very tasty since it was cooked to golden crispness. I did not care for the cherry tomatoes that came with this meal, yet the sautéed mushrooms were delectable. I even ordered their French Toast Latte and Hungarian treat on my way out to try.

The second time I was there, I had their Vegan Breakfast Skillet with a Cappuccino with oat milk in it. The vegan skillet was solid good and had it with multigrain toast and baked beans. The toast was really great while the beans, which they make from scratch, were very flavorous. The cappuccino was fantastic, and you cannot tell that they used oat milk in it.

I also had their Liege Waffles and found them to be warm, crunchy and delectable. The Maple Whipped Cream that came with it was a unique additional topping and highly recommend it with your waffles. I had this meal with the Lavender Latte that I found to be aromatic and sweet, and did not need to add sugar for flavouring.

Humble Root does not do reservations, and it was ‘first come, first serve’ for all customers. Like their menu, the interior design of the restaurant looked very wholesome with some of the wooden decor, walls and the waiters dressed in casual attire. Also, they like to celebrate the holidays with Halloween/Christmas decorations, and their seasonal menu choices. They were really courteous and checked on me as often as they can, even during their busiest times.

Overall, the Humble Root lives up to their name with the staff's first-rate work ethics and organic entrees. I cannot wait to come back there to try their vegan menu choices.

We tried the gnocchi and butternut perogies, and they were next-level delicious—perfectly cooked, rich, and flavorful. The French toast latte was a sweet and cozy treat, with just the right balance of warmth and spice.

One standout surprise? Their in-house smoky hot sauce—I wish I could buy a bottle to take home! It added the perfect touch of heat and depth to the dishes.

Humble Roots truly lives up to its name with its farm-fresh ingredients, creative menu, and heartwarming service. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by—you won’t regret it!

If you have a craving for pirogies, then grab Verónica’s Pirogies & Eggs at Humble Roots Cafe, so delicious! They provide great service, lots of veggie and vegan options as well. Next time, I have my eye on the Cheesy Ponderosa Benny. Super cozy ambience and friendly staff.

A great breakfast to start the day. Lots of patio space, dogs are welcome with water bowls provided. Wide variety of breakfast items including vegan options too. Service was fantastic too, very attentive. We had the waffles, breakfast poutine and a classic breakfast. All were good.

What a wicked find! We both had the agedashi sandwich and wedge fries. The food was so good. The focaccia was so soft and the folks around us all had amazing food. The chicken club looked epic with thick sliced turkey. So we will have to come back to try more things. Great vibe. Awesome options for vegan and food sensitivities too.

Everything about this place is great!
The food was amazing, we had the farmer's skillet and the classic breakfast, and the hedgehog latte. Definitely recommend all of them.
The servers are nice and the ambiance gives cozy small business vibes.
Will be coming back for sure 🙂
