Next Stop Cafe is awesome!! Conveniently located for many people (I live in the South), my guests came from the East...a small parking lot but there's lots of street parking...so no worries there. The service is awesome! The waitresses are always very kind, informative and knowledgeable. The food is delicious. The times we've come, we have tried many different things...koobideh, burgers, chicken wrap, tea, and more...the burgers are where it's at though! Delish! The decor is beautiful...I love the lights...images...however, one thing which is sort of out of the restaurants control (I say sort of and I'll explain why, with a suggestion)...there's been several visits where we come and unfortunately it's mostly adults visiting with a couple younger kids...and because the adults want to visit, they don't tend to the kids and literally on two occasions had kids RUNNING around the larger table that the adults were seated at. No one said anything. To navigate this as a restaurant, the waitress or a manager on site could address the adults in the party to please remind their children to play at the table or to be calm and walk around the restaurant (if they want to permit that...it's way better than screaming and running). The restaurant can also have colouring pages and crayons and if they don't want to offer it for all kids at the beginning, they could have it as a tool in case they notice kids could benefit from some quiet, engaging activity. Just a suggestion. I remedied this by order pick up the next few times. Unfortunately going closer to closing doesn't help either because the kids are there then too. Overall great experiences. I've been several times, happy with all the menu items...there's literally something for everyone or most dietary requirements. Thank you and all the best! I'll have to post more photos soon...they are in another album!

I had business in the area and was looking for a place to burn an hour and a bit, I saw Next Stop Cafe and decided to give it a go. Staff are extremely nice, responsive, and courteous. I wish I remembered the name of our servers because all were a pleasure!! We decided to go for the port style wrap... Let me say, that this was absolutely delicious!!! If I wasn't pressed for time I would have ordered another, or a different wrap! Fries were crispy, we picked the basket clean, pretty much licking up the sauce from the wrapper. The atmosphere was very relaxing, and I really enjoyed the mix of chill guitar. The server robot had us staring at it the entire time, with a cute cat face on the front, and it spoke to you as it departed your table, it even sang happy birthday to the table behind us!! The server-cat-bot does not run into you, even if you are standing in its way, it will go around and complete it's route, so cool to watch! And one of the best parts (In my opinion) was the milkshakes... If you are willing to fork over 8$ at Starbucks, save your money and go here instead for a treat. Better quality, made fresh in house, and if you get it to go it comes in a cute to-go can/bottle hybrid container. We had the Nutella milkshake 30 minutes later, and we had to try really hard not to finish it in 30 seconds, it's that good! I can say with 100% certainty that we will be visiting here again in the very near future, and try different items from the menu. Keep up the great work staff and server-cat-bot, if I could give another 5 stars I would!

An absolute gem! If you haven’t been already, make Next Stop Cafe your next eating destination. Excellent ambience great staff and wonderful food! what’s not to like about Next Stop café. They have a huge menu and every member of the family / group can find something that they would enjoy. Their fresh juices are actually freshly squeezed and are deliciously refreshing. The most noteworthy thing is the little automatic caddy on wheels that serves food. The servers enter the table number, and that caddy drives right to your table to serve your food. It has a little cat kind of face on the screen that winks and smiles after the food is delivered. It was very cute and funny. It is great to see quality Iranian food available at such affordable prices in Winnipeg now. Would highly recommend this place. Please like if this review helped you. Thank you very much.

You know you're in for a treat when you're greated with a big smile and open arms from the owners Mona and Payam. They're excitement and passion for their food says alot about this unique restaurant . This is all before I even sat down and tried their food. Funny thing is, I love middle eastern food, and I've driven by this location a million times. But one day as I drove by, my eye caught a new sign that said "Persian Grill" & it had a beautiful photo of juicy succulent grilled kebabs. I had to have it, that brings me here. I ended up ordering the chicken and lamb/beef kebab, accompanied with a side rice and a green salad. It looked just like the picture, and she did not disappoint. I'm so full!! Let me tell you one more thing. Their menu which also includes a list breakfast, burgers and milkshakes that'll blow your mind, is all interactive with videos all on a tablet which every take gets. Plus you get Rosie the robot to bring out your food when it's ready, how cool is that. So, if you're looking for a place to take the family out for good times and great food, The Next Stop Cafe/Persian Grill is a definite ""MustTry" Ill be back! Until next Peg City, see you at the table! Big China

  • Scott MacAuley

This is a really neat little spot with a post modern middle eastern vibe. The place overall is clean, spacious, and the owner is very friendly. Everything is fresh and she prides herself on the use of her own recipes. The food coming out of the kitchen looks good, is well presented and very flavourful. I had a mushroom burger and it was quite delicious as the patty was juicy, the cheese melted nicely, the bun fresh, lettuce crispy and it was not over sauced. I would like to come back and try some of their signature dishes like the kabobs or falafel. The coffee smell in the restaurant is strong fresh and inviting....I can't wait to try some of their specialty coffees, and fresh juices. I note they aerve a variety of reasonably priced breakfast dishes. A little neat aspect of eating here is the AI, robotic cat waiter/waitress that brings the food right to your table....it's kind-of cool and unique. I will definitely bring others back here.

Iranian diner that offers a unique menu and dinning experience. I heard about the robo server so I wanted to check it out. Very cute. Kebab and rice, wraps, or burgers that have their own unique flair. I had the falafel that was served in a sub bun with pickles, mushrooms - different presentation than a traditional pita but it was good and very large portion. You will not leave here hungry The Majoon shake was delicious and a meal in of itself. Burger and Gyros was also very good. Fries are a la carte which may seem odd but I think this allows you to try other menu items without exploding There is a breakfast menu, as well as fresh pressed juices, a variety of tea, and shakes. Service was great. Definitely worth a stop. I’ll be back!

Found this little nook on Google maps and decided to try it based on the positive reviews it had. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with the overall cleanliness and layout. The lone waitress was working with a robot server, my first time seeing one! My mom had the Next Stop Breakfast and I went with a beef and lamb gyro. Menu items were all well priced and our food was quick and delicious! I also had the Majoon smoothie, best ever! I like the fact that my server was just a button tap away if I needed anything or if I was ready to pay. Highly recommended and will be back to try other items.

  • Samson - have a great day

Great selection of food...my first time there. Maddy welcomed us in such a positive way which made the experience even better. I'm a burger guy and saw their large selection of homemade looking burgers. I had the chicken/beef burger with a ceaser salad. Good portion and very fresh and tasty meat. The robot server that brings food out is very futuristic... a modern place. Some TV screens. Definitely coming back to try out another menu item from this local family run establishment! Service was prompt.

I have been coming to Next Stop Cafe for quite some time and their burgers are Top notch. However, the fries are out of this world. Do not skip their fries, just trust me on this. Crispy on the outside, soft from the inside and they come in good portions too. The side order of fries is enough for a single person and the large is good for sharing. I also love their special sauce. They charge 25c for it but for me, it’s worth it. Love it with their fries. They also offer smoothies and other drinks but I have not tried those. They also have Persian kebabs on the menu but my favourite order is burgers and fries since there are so few Halal establishments offering good burgers and theirs are the Best I have tried so far.

They have enough space in the front parking lot. I believe between 10 or 12 spots. Also you have street parking a few meters from the restaurant.

  • Michelle

Parking lot is small, but ample street parking is there. They had a robot come out with the staff to serve your food - it was cute. Staff were friendly. The burgers were a strange color and dry. They looked undercooked. It was the oddest burger I had in quite some time. They had "secret sauce" on the menu on every burger - I chose to have it on the side - glad I did - it was a strange flavour that I wouldn't have chosen. Lettuce was good. Definitely not a meal to my taste. There were no sides - like fries included in the price - which was expensive for what we got. Usually there is an option to add a salad or fries to your burger/main meal - this was not the case here.

If you want to experience a welcome warm Iranian culture this is a good place to start. It is one of the acceptable an proper restaurants with the standards of Winnipeg. The prices are reasonable and the food is satisfactory. The best dishes to try is chicken kabab and koobideh kabab, and also burgers are fine too.

Man!!! What an experience. I don't know how I missed this for so long. I am a big fan of trying varying cuisine but this place was just something different though I can't place my finger on it. Food quality exceptional. Fries!!! their fries are the best from what I have tasted so far in Winnipeg. Their shakes are incredible from creaminess to the yuminess its all nothing but perfect. Chicken is also juicy and flavorful. I would say one of the best places I have visited so far. Just gotta go again writing about these makes me hungry. Exceptional Experience

A beautiful, unique and calm environment inside and out of the cafe. Staff was very welcoming. We got served by a robot and it was fun. I chose to try strawberry and mango smoothie which was not so good. I also tried falafel wrap, I really liked it and there was good filling of falafel. They have a small bell service for each table, I found it useful and good idea to manage all customers. Cafe is very near to bus stop so if you’re taking bus, it is convenient.

Absolutely wonderful and delightful little Restaurant! my daughter and I were visiting from the US and stopped there for breakfast. On our way home. Food was wonderful. The owners were absolutely the nicest people on our server was just an absolute doll. They even had fresh squeeze watermelon juice, which we ordered, but they also had other choices and all fresh squeezed! Can’t say enough good stuff about this place but if we ever visit that area again, we will definitely be back. Highly recommend!❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • Geoffrey

This restaurant has small parking lot but lots of parking on streets nearby. This is very clean and fun looking restaurant. Staff is friendly. There is a lot of fun technology inside. Biggest problems are food quality and cost. Food was expensive. Our burgers cost 14 each I believe. The buns were fresh but the meat was not good. The outside of the patties was very over done, The interior of the patty looked undercooked /strangely coloured. There was too much bun to meat ratio even if the meat was better.

  • Azra Gheewala

Really amazing and authentic food! The kebabs taste just like the ones I had in Iran and they are delicious. My husband and I don't usually like tomatoes but the tomatoes they served with the kebabs were absolutely amazing and we finished all of it!

I couldn't recommend this place enough !!! The service was amazing, we where served by the owner Mona who was sweet, kind, funny , and makes you feel welcomed. They know their menu well and can help you chose if your a bit confused. The place is very well decorated and it's clean, service is quick and efficient. They also have a waiter robot cat which made the experience even better. Super family friendly, couldn't recommend it enough.

  • Farhan Liaquat

Great place to dine with family. Amazing taste and chef put heart ❤️ in flavourful dishes. The burgers are cool and serving size is good. The only caveat is the combo options as it's not available. We have to order fries and drink on the side which Jack's up the over all cost of the meal. So bite it .

Mona was wonderful and took care of our table like we were family. The food was terrific. I ordered a Feta Garlic omelet and ask to add some spinach which they did.
