We love our local community.

For almost four years, you've supported us on Jarvis Street, from 102 Jarvis to our home at 26 Jarvis Street. We love what you've helped us build.

We see the comments trashing Bridgeburg. It breaks my heart. So let me tell you what I know as a business owner here.

We've watched amazing small businesses open, pour everything into their dreams and sadly close a year or two later. Some became our friends. We miss them.

We've been part of the BIA and, say what you want, I've never met a more devoted group of people trying to make Bridgeburg better. Was the renovation perfect? No. But we have beautiful trees and flowers, renovated storefronts, community cleanups and thousands of hours spent planning events.

I don't often share the hard side of owning a small-town café, but we work our butts off. In this economy, most months are a struggle.

Is it worth it? I believe it is.

Jarvis Street has Art, food, coffee, hair and spa services, and even an actual Spa shop. lot's of yoga, Pilates, wellness, gifts, art, vintage, thrift, clothing, a party shop, a tailor, a bookstore, furniture, appliances a cycle & sports shop, Jewellery & currency exchange, and an amazing mechanic all by the river.

There is SO MUCH here.

But we need our community to choose local.

We're not corporations. We're your neighbours. Jon and I live just a couple of blocks from our shop.

Next time you need something, ask yourself:

Can I get it in Bridgeburg?

You might be surprised how often the answer is YES.

Imagine the businesses that would come here if they saw a thriving, busy street. Small businesses can't create that alone. The BIA can't do it alone. A renovation can't do it alone.

Our community has to help.

Have your meetups at a local coffee shop. Choose a local spa. Buy your next outfit, gift or piece of art here. Get it tailored here. Go thrifting here.

We all need your help.

Bridgeburg can be more than people remember. It can be something even better.

Choose local. Choose your neighbours. Choose Bridgeburg.

We'll keep showing up.

We hope you will too.

WE’RE LIVE! OUR NEW WEBSITE IS OFFICIALLY HERE!

If you've been following The Manic Maker for a while, you might know our website has been a bit of a journey

We've built. We've redesigned. We've moved things around. We've connected websites to other websites, menus to ordering platforms and shops to different systems... and somewhere along the way, things got a little more complicated than they needed to be.

So we went back to what The Manic Maker has always been about.

Making things easier, warmer and a little more Manic.

One website. Everything The Manic Maker. One place.

Explore Bridgeburg's Cozy Corner Café
Browse breakfast, lunch, drinks and treats
Check out our ice cream and handcrafted Flurries
Shop over 150 freeze-dried treats made right here in our shop
Read our story and learn more about why we do what we do
Find everything you need to visit us at 26 Jarvis Street in Fort Erie

AND... LOCAL DELIVERY!

Don't have DoorDash or Uber Eats? You don't need them!

You can order for local delivery directly through our website. Breakfast, lunch, café favourites, treats and YES... we'll even deliver our freeze-dried candy locally!

This website has been rebuilt around what The Manic Maker has grown into — a café, a freeze-dried candy shop, a small-batch production kitchen, an online shop and, most importantly, a little family business with a whole lot of heart.

Same heart. New look. Everything The Manic Maker.

This kind of thing is what we live for!

One of our amazing customers, who lives over 3 hours away, wanted to make her sister's birthday extra special right here in our community.

Instead of sending the usual flowers or fruit basket, she put together a custom gift box from The Manic Maker website.. filled with a little bit of everything—fun treats, thoughtful surprises, some café favorites & something special just from our team.

We absolutely LOVE this idea.

For about the same price as many traditional gift options, you can create a gift that's personal, unique, and made just for them. Whether it's a birthday, anniversary, thank you, congratulations, or simply because you're thinking of someone, we're happy to help you create something they'll remember.

The best part? We can deliver it right to their door, (for free if its over $60.00)making it easy to celebrate the people you love, even when you can't be there yourself.

Thank you for letting The Manic Maker be part of such a special birthday surprise. Moments like these remind us that the best gifts aren't always the biggest—they're the ones that let someone know they're loved.
