The Studio by Newton's Opens
These buildings have served the community in many ways throughout the years. The original Newton's store was on Ross Island before being floated to Grand Harbour. The current building was constructed circa 1915 and has served as a meat market, grocery store, general mercantile, and more. Today, it is home to the island's hub for espresso drinks and giftware.
About Us
Artisanal Espresso Drinks and Homemade Baked Goods
When you step inside the mercantile, you'll notice the original tin ceilings and hardwood floors. Then you'll be greeted by the smell of cookies in the kitchen and the smiles of our staff waiting to serve you.
​
We offer a large menu of handcrafted beverages and a daily selection of grab & go lunch items. We are proud to offer gelato and frozen yogurt products by Goji's Neighbourhood Treatery, a local New Brunswick company.
What We're Known For
