Visiting the neighbourhood pub is a tradition for many BC residents. Pitt Meadow's neighbourhood pub The Jolly Coachman, offers up the normal pub wares and some amazing home-style food that makes the mouth water just from the aromas.  After enjoying $.25 wings on a Saturday afternoon or a leisurely meal during the week, be sure to try their Brownie Obsession Dessert.

Arriving in a margarita glass, right off the top is whipped cream and slivered almonds. When the spoon digs in it will discover the fabulous vanilla ice cream that is smothered in nicely warmed caramel sauce. Then the brownie itself is decadent, smooth, chocolaty and melts in the mouth.  Served with two spoons, most will not want to share this dessert with anyone.

A Pitt Meadows neighbourhood just got cosier.  September 22nd saw the opening of the 'Café Encounters'. Located nestled in the base of the condominium complex at the corner of Davison Rd and Harris Rd.  Owned and ran by Susan and Andy Hunt. Their electric personalities, cozy atmosphere and coffee beans care of the '49th Parallel' make the visit homey, warm and relaxing.

With a blossoming customer base, delicious treats and live entertainment on Friday evenings will make this a perfect spot to catch up with friends.

Moderately priced coffee and speciality coffee made barista style along with some seasonal favorites like Hot Apple Cider and Pumpkin Lattes give the cafe an enticing aroma. Don't forget to try a sample of their biscotti that is beside the coffee prep station.

Sandwiches and of course decadent treats round out the visit to the cafe. They even have toys for the kids! What more could you want from a neighbourhood coffee shop? Well how about Daniel Chocolates, hot soups and chili and homemade hummus. Yes, you can get it all here and in the summers you can look forward to gelato, milkshakes and floats!

All in all, a cafe worth checking out.
