Pangaea Cafe

We trekked out to Curtis Park this week to Pangaea Cafe. It's a whole new area for us, but after a couple of scouting missions, we were sure Pangaea was a nice fit for us. It's located next to the Gunther's ice cream shop that has been there since the dawn of time

Quite a few drunks were missing this week, but we supplemented our numbers with some Pangaea regulars, Ricardo, Linda & Jeff. Add in chatting with the owner Rob, and awesome food giver Erika and it felt like a full house.

The have a lovely selection of Belgian beers both on tap and bottled. The girl favorite was Kasteel Rouge that tastes like cherries! The rest were all over the map with the on tap selections.

Now to the food! Overall, the food is yummy. Very yummy. The Ruben, which was a special was piping hot and super savory. The lemon chicken panini was just lemony enough. Roast beef was well received and everyone had happy full bellies. The food here is simple and good but not boring.

We rarely go to coffee/cafe places, because they don't turn around at night to be as fun as you would expect. This place does. The staff and owner are truly nice people who are also fun and have enough of a sense of humor that they don't mind getting a little louder once the sun goes down.

Plus after you're all full of beer and food, you can walk across the street for some ice cream. What could be better?

Come here and come often!
