    Damn Fine Cup of coffee
    A.J. S.

    Bethunes was pretty nice. I enjoyed the Eggs Benedict. The hollandaise had the correct mix of tart and creaminess. The coffee was pretty decent. It was everything that I wanted from this type of diner. The person working there was nice. The food was good. I would go back if I was in the area again.

    A sucker for classic diners and family-owned restaurants, I would give Bethune's Bistro 3.75/5! I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo (subbed the bacon and sausage for chicken) and an appetizer sized Caesar Salad. The Caesar Salad was a little overdressed with sauce. The Fettuccine Alfredo was really full of flavour and delicious. Although I prefer my pasta al dente and it was overcooked, I set my expectations extremely low for a local diner. The pasta definitely exceeded my expectations as the sauce was yummy and had a delicious creamy taste. I tried my boyfriend's Haddock Fish and Chips and it was really good - a great level of juiciness and fried, without being overly greasy. His came with fries, coleslaw, and tartar sauce. I wish they gave more tartar sauce for the fish. He said it was one of the best fish and chips he's had! Next time, I would definitely order the fish and chips. The service was nice and prompt. They took us in even though we arrived 30 minutes before closing. The ambience is very homey, as you would expect from a typical diner.

    Ian has joined the team at the Bethune Bistro and has turned this place around!!! He used to manage the sunset grill at the wharf. I was very worried when my mom suggested we come here due to the past reviews and our own experience with the wait time in the past. But when we walked in and saw Ian. I just knew we would be in good hands!! The sunset grill closed down recently as they couldn't find any cooks. Otherwise that was our original go to place in Gravenhurst. About our meals today: My brother and I had the Philli cheese steak. My mom had the haddock and chips and my dad had the western sandwich. All were brought to our table within 10 minutes and delicious!!! The Philli cheese steak would have been better without so much bread tho - on a wrap or a skinnier bread type. Both rooms were packed so the wait time was very acceptable - also given the fact that he was the only the server!!! The variety of food was awesome! Either full day breakfast items from steak and eggs to pancakes or full entrees, salads, pasta etc. Including what we all had as well as liver and onions, Cajun chicken etc I forgot to take a photo of their menu. Someone should do that - as there is not one online and I like to manage my meals with my fitness pal and know what I can have before I attend a restaurant. But that's just me. Lol We will definitely be back .... As long as Ian is still there! He knows how to be efficient!!

    Breakfast was great. Good portions and cooked to perfection. I've been going here since I was a kid and never have been disappointed.

    Decent service, with a really outdated and simple setting. Food is very simple and on the cheap end. Would regret avoid in the future.

    My friend and I came here for a quick comfort eat. There was…read morea slight wait for a table but it was less than 5 minutes which was good. The order taking and service itself was quite longer than we would've thought it would be. We probably waited for our order for at least 15 min. We ordered the Chirashu Ramen, Tonkotsu Miso and Agedashi Tofu. However, Sapporo Miso Ramen was mistakenly served to us instead of the Tonkotsu Miso which was quite disappointing. The food were great. The broths were light and nicely balanced with flavour, not too salty. The shrimps in the Sapporo Miso Ramen were cooked perfectly but the pork in the Chirashu Ramen was a bit chewy. The soy sauce served with the Agedashi Tofu had a hint of sweetness which was quite refreshing to the palate. Overall, the food satisfied our cravings but the promptness and accuracy of the service could be improved.

    The ramen was tasty, very consistent -- great portion sizes on the normal bowls and terrific value…read moreon the king-sized meal; a perfect dinner stop on the way back from skiing! Service was very attentive, with staff clearing bowls and refilling water frequently. It's quite a small restaurant with very little seating (we saw lots of people turned away during peak dinner hours), so a reservation is recommended on Fridays or weekends. Overall a nice spot and would visit again.
