Catered to those who don’t want to wait, but also don’t want to sacrifice on the quality and flavour of freshly prepared food and drinks, a variety of items from Bel Café are now available on the app. Designed with working professionals in mind, the Ritual app cleverly taps networks of co-workers and colleagues for fast and easy pick up and pay options.

Once enrolled they can pre-order and pay through the smart phone app, which will also alert as to precisely what time the order will be ready for pick up.”

Led by talented Chef Kevin Emry, Bel Café’s innovative food program includes nourishing breakfast offerings such as the Spicy Kale Breakfast Sandwich, Overnight Oats (with house-made peanut butter and toasted coconut) or Chia Pudding Parfait. An array of sandwiches offered include a moist and crunchy Grilled Chicken Banh Mi and a flavourful Roasted Cauliflower Sandwich (with smoked halloumi, ginger and tomato chutney), as well as Bel Café’s classic BLT and Smoked Turkey Club.
