What our customers are saying:
"Becky was INCREDIBLE. We booked her to cater our wedding and she was insanely amazing. Not only was this a convenient option for us having our wedding on Gabriola Island but she blew our expectations OUT OF THE WATER. From picking a menu - to me having some weird requests that she fulfilled without question. We last minute ordered some breakfast munchies for the morning after and without fail - Becky and team created the most beautiful fruit tray I have ever witnessed and the most delicious baked goods. I cannot say enough about how incredible Ground Up was to work with and we will continue to be frequent customers at the Ground Up Cafe!!!!!!!"
"The food and dessert was incredible and everyone was so happy with it. You and everyone involved made everything so easy and we made many comments about how kind everyone was."
"My husband and I have been going to this place for breakfast sandwiches and baked goods frequently since we have lived here and they have always been exceptional value and quality! One day when I was in I noticed the baker preparing a beautiful simple cake that I knew would be perfect for our small at home wedding. I highly recommend this place for not only the amazing food, but the delicious and beautiful cakes (with appropriate notice) that the baker makes( I wish I caught her name). Thank you Ground Up for being a stand up cafe on this island! ❤️"
