If you are a fan of HK style cafe, this cafe is a "must visit."I have a bowl of beef brisket noodle, a pan fried white carrot cake and a cup of HK style milk tea.In the case of the beef brisket noodle, the owner is so attentive that two options are available, namely, meat portion or tendon portion. I choose the latter. The brisket is so soft that an elderly will not find it difficult to chew. The alkaline taste of the noodle is absent so that you need not use red vinegar. The soup is so tasty that you are tempted to finish all of it. It seems that MSG is not used. (I am MSG sensitive).The pan fried white carrot cake is skillfully fried. The surface is crispy. The ingredients show the chef's generosity and seriousness.The HK style milk tea is silky and not too sweet.A visit to this cafe is a delightful experience.The sunroom is sufficient and particularly joyful in summer.

Beef noodle was amazing, even better with the chilli oil. I like how for takeout they separate the broth from the noodles and beef, and you Actually get a large portion when you pour it all out in a bowl

Love the congee there!

Moved to NS from Toronto and I gotta say, the selection for authentic Chinese food is pretty slim. But Jacky’s Cafe is amaaazing! My fave is the shrimp wonton soup with pan fried dumplings, with a side of Chinese greens and the HK milk tea (cold). Highly recommended!!!!

Quick and friendly service. Homey setting. Good coffee.

Good Chinese food and great noodles. Will definitely go again.

Ordered the beef stew noodle soup, soooo good. Soup was delicious as well as the meat and noodles. Classic. Tasted exactly like it would in Hong Kong.

One of the best soups I've had in a while. The beef was on point, veggies were fresh and broth was ideal. Great hidden gem.

Very pleasant staff the food is fabulous.

Fantastic family run café with delicious and nostalgic meals. Super lowkey.Surprised they don't charge more!
