Twiggs Coffee Roasters

This Twiggs by far the best one in terms of place, decoration and service. Their bakery and food items are always fresh. Coffees are good and I love their pasta and cheese cakes.

Great service and an excellent menu. Wide range of beverages so everyone is happy! Love the dairy-free options!

Not what we expected, or maybe our expectations were too high. As local business "champion'ers"—wherever we live, Canada or the US—we like to source out locally owned and run businesses. While doing business in North Bay May 5, 2022, we asked for a recommendation from our insurance representative. He recommended Twiggs. We decided to try it... Like I said, maybe our expectations were to high. Upon entry we established a familiarity—the restaurant was reminiscent of Williams Fresh. The cafeteria style ordering process, the display cases filled with tempting baked goods. We were impressed, and thought 'this is going to be THE PLACE to get a good home-baked bread deli sandwich' ... Hopeful, we order the Montreal smoked meat sandwich on toasted "rye" bread, a lemon-lemonade, and a peach iced tea. Other items include a bag of Twiggs roasted coffee, two bags of Miss Vickie's sea salt and malt vinegar chips, and chocolate covered coffee beans. The associates working were nice, not forthcoming but assumptive in nature—indicative of new or post-covid public reopening (in our opinion, as we have experienced)—we can empathize. However, when our order arrived, a sad grocery store "rye" sandwich style bread (think Wonder bread loaf) barely toasted, with what seemed to be grocery store pre-packaged uniformed sliced Montreal smoked meat with the saddest deli-pickle (half a deli pickle to be exact). The peach iced tea was good, the lemon-lemonade was lacking in actual lemon flavour and was warm at the bottom of the cup and cold on top where the ice lingered, a giant a half lemon hindered comfortable drinking from the straw—a slice or wedge would have sufficed. The chips were stale, period. The coffee, excellent! I brewed a French pressed pot this morning and the Yirgacheffe (dark roast) did not disappoint! While grinding the bean (burr grinder) the aromatics filling the kitchen with the sent of chocolate, home-baked croissants and happiness—basically a pain au chocolat, divine! Smooth, delicious with chocolate and tobacco notes—a hardy and satisfying dark roast! So, in summary, we may not go back for lunch. It was disappointing that the bread wasn't a real dark rye bread, and the sandwich presentation was not that of a deli-style, more grocery store style. However, I will purchase my morning beans here when I am in North Bay... and I will get myself a coffee while there. Not all was a lose. Note: the sandwich portion was more than adequate, as was the drink size.

Always a great experience at Twiggs! The hot chocolate is DIVINE, and I'm a big fan of their Dirty Chai!

Cannot find the option to review for campus location, so my review for the 100 College Drive Twiggs is as follows: Food is always good - however, there is ZERO hand washing at the university/campus location. I watched a staff member who was building salads and sandwiches use their unwashed hands to tear apart crab for a salad, proceed to wipe their hands on their clothes, touch everything else around them (like knobs, tools, handles, etc) and then get on with the next order. This is unsanitary even if we weren't in a pandemic. People may also have allergies to fish and they may now be exposed to that through cross-contamination. Please fix this. This is unfortunately the only food service offered on either campus during the summer semester.

One of my favourite place in north bay. Totally love the vibe inside the restaurant and their cafe mocha is the best!!!!!!

Not outstanding 2.5. I had a breakfast sandwich with slightly burnt toast. Service is friendly enough. However, we got all our food at our table but we had to ask where are our coffees we ordered to the server's surprise. By this time we had already waited about 15 mins for the food to arrive. I normally do like their pizza. Cheesecake is also good but only when fresh. For a coffee place, I do not like their coffee even though it's supposed to be their thing. Some of other reviews I'd agree tastes watered down. I've tried it several times already at two NB locations and Sturgeon Falls. I normally wouldn't come except my gf keeps insisting on this place.

Great coffee, nice clean and bright coffee shop! Very friendly peeps!
