First, I have to mention the coffee—it was incredibly smooth, especially when paired with milk. After some lively discussion at our table, all three of us decided to go for 'Southern' dishes. We ordered BBQ brisket with cornbread, black fish tacos, and chicken quesadillas. Even though it was already 10:30 PM, we left with smiles on our faces.
A big thank you to the staff for providing us with such a delightful alte... View all feedback.
What Barb H dislikes about Deville:
The staff seemed more focused on having a private gathering and acting as if they were in their own home rather than creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere and being attentive to customers. View all feedback.

It was just ok, my coffee tasted a bit bitter also our order was forgotten and we had to remind them to make it. Also got my sons coffee order wrong. They were good about fixing it though Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
The food is amazing. The service is pretty good. Lost a few stars due to allowing smoking within their premises. It's awful when eating and you can smell smoke. It almost puts me off going there but the food is so good. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $20–30
Nestled in a charming setting, this restaurant offers a delightful mix of experiences. While the outdoor area provides a sunny refuge, service can vary, with occasional lapses in attentiveness and order accuracy. Despite some criticism regarding certain dishes, such as overpriced burgers and unremarkable vegetarian options, patrons rave about the excellent coffee and standout Southern dishes. Many appreciate the inviting atmosphere, particularly for gatherings, and the impressive portion sizes, making it a favorite for groups. Overall, the restaurant exudes a relaxed vibe with potential for memorable dining experiences, provided some improvements are made in service and menu quality.

Oh my goodness! It was absolutely amazing. I tried the pulled pork dish that I can't quite pronounce from the specials menu today, and it was definitely the best lunch I've ever had!
The staff were incredible! We had two fussy newborns who needed to be fed right before closing time, and they kindly allowed us to stay a bit longer to finish our feeding. Thank you so much!

I had brunch here last week and sat outside in a sunny spot. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was perfect for enjoying a meal. This is a fantastic place to gather with friends for delicious food, coffee, and drinks.
Loved visiting here. We're apart of a group of 17 people, food was awesome and reasonably priced for the portion of meal. Food was also serviced in a timely manner. Definitely be returning.
I visited the restaurant for Mother’s Day with high expectations, especially considering the great reviews. I ordered the main vegetarian dish, but it was quite disappointing. Honestly, I could have made something tastier at home, which is always disheartening at a restaurant. The dish also lacked avocado, which would have added some much-needed freshness. Overall, it fell short in terms of flavor—not what you would expect from a Mexican meal. With some creative salsa combinations, it could have really come alive. Unfortunately, it felt like just a standard vegetarian option rather than a standout dish that would entice me to return. On a positive note, the coffee was excellent.
Very cool venue with amazing food I was super impressed with the BBQ brisket on cornbread.

This is a pet-friendly spot with a relaxed atmosphere. The service was warm and welcoming, and the food was quite good. We tried the burgers and the seafood gumbo, both of which were enjoyable.
This distinctive bar and cafe offers both indoor and outdoor seating. Their menu features a delightful array of Central and South American dishes, each with a unique twist. There's also a wide selection of delicious drinks available, including non-alcoholic options. Please note that they are open for breakfast and lunch only.
Delicious food eggs are poached well, and smoked salmon is yum. Chocolate brownie is warm and not too sweet. Jasmine and peachflower tea is great.
Great breakfast that left both of us filled. I ordered poached eggs and a side of chicken which came to $26, highly recommend this combo team. My only small issue was it was a wee bit cold for my partner. The service was amazing and the coffee was probably the best I've had in Nelson this year! Recommend this place for sure!!
We came here for breakfast and it was a GREAT choice. The place does music stuff in the evenings so when you walk in for breakfast it's like walking onto a movie set. Lots of green plants (the place used to be a garden centre) a stage with red velvet curtains, theatre doors etc. Very nice vibe. We had the scrambled tofu (like smashed avacado but better) and I had toast and jam. While the tofu was delicious and would of made a great lunch or dinner meal, the toast and jam was a winner for me! They lightly fried the bread which made it amazing and it was served with homemade jam, mixed berries. This jam is on par with jam we had in Rotterdam in a very hip trendy cafe. A nice surprise and a good find in Nelson.

I visited this restaurant in search of scones, and I was delighted to find plenty of them. They were absolutely delicious! The ambiance was lovely, the seating areas were comfortable, and the service was excellent.
I really enjoy visiting Deville. I haven't explored much of the menu since I'm such a fan of the quesadillas. They offer great gluten-free options as well. The spacious outdoor garden is fantastic too! It's also dog-friendly, which is a big plus.
