We're from out of town and dropped Surf Cafe seeking croissants 🥐 and coffee, and we found it. Chef Chris knows his croissants. If you're looking for a delicious French butter croissant, go here. We also had 2 cappuccinos, one regular and one decaf. Both were delicious. Highly recommended for travelers. We updated the photo of the front entrance, with the old tree 🌲 cut down.
They have great coffee and pastries. The butter tarts are to die for. Exceptional service and very nice owners. Location is good too, it was 3 min. from our hotel’s area. Beach across the road and cozy inside. Definitely will be back for more.
The only coffee stop on the Georgian Trail between Collingwood and Thornbury …great Americano
Nice small cafe, seating place inside. Coffee, sandwitch , muffins etc.
We went for a walk-in, not realizing the pizzas were advance order only. However, the staff were so nice and accommodating and made us a pizza to have while we waited. Loved the decor and atmosphere. The Margherita pizza was good and hit the spot 😁 but.... I can't stop raving about the soup.. their butternut squash was perfect! So flavourful and rich.

Must stop at Shale Rock Coffee House! Beautifully decorated place. Hosted by nice people. The Butter Tarts are to die for!
Very nice little cafe next to the Northwinds beach. Good coffee.
This place is simply wonderful. Very good ambiance with outside seating arrangements. The sandwich menu options are very good. I tried the Tuna sandwich and the egg sandwich. They were freshly made and tasted very good. I was recommended by a friend of mine who tried their food and loved it. It’s been few times I’ve tried their food and would highly recommend it.
Nice cafe by the Georgian Bay. It seems like a local favourite as there were a lot of customers coming in (I'm originally from the Toronto area).
Pizza is amazing. You will be thinking about it days later and planning the next time you will be able to eat it. If you are out and about … especially at Northwinds Beach relaxing… call them up and order a couple pizza’s for lunch or dinner on the way home. Coffee is also fabulous. Usually you don’t want to order “just the drip” because it’s never good… and end up ordering a americano… but not here. Drip is soooo great. Trail is right behind the shop for easy pedestrian and bike access. Plenty of seating on the picnic benches as well as patio. It’s so great to not have to go into town to get good food.
