Apple Annie's Cafe is located right in downtown at 101 Mississauga Street East. Serving daily baked goods, hot lunch and amazing drinks! Need a little treat?!  Our sister fudge and gifts shop is just three doors down in the lower level of the historic Mariposa Market!

We are a loud bunch, incredibly welcoming, full of awful puns and sassy comments. We are a completely judge free zone. We want our customers happy, healthy, unafraid and full when they leave. Come in for a drink, food or a judge free chat. We are here.

The Grilled Cheese Social Eatery. We are an eclectic little Eatery in Barrie that focuses on the community as much as we do on our kitchen. It is no accident that the word Social is in our name. Like every sandwich on our menu we understand that everyone is different but at the same time, we are all similar at our core. We strongly believe in the power of love and encourage and support through the love of food for all others to do the same.

The Lazy Tulip Cafe is open seven days a week for breakfast and lunch featuring mindful, healthy food options located right downtown Barrie! 

We offer a space that is open to all without judgement where you can be true to who you are. Because the world is all one, we are all connected as one and we all share the same cells that need love, acceptance and a good cup of coffee.
