    Now called bar down and still the best food in town. Had the…read morechicken club and chef Lou really hit the nail on the head with that one. Other guests at our table had a perfectly cooked fresh made burger with golden brown fries. Did I mention the servers were great, and I wasn't left with a empty drink the entire time I was there. This place Is a must go when visiting the beautiful town of Kincardine!

    Nice little patio, but we didn't realize we'd be sitting there an hour before our food arrived…read more When we first came in, there was no one in sight, so we grabbed our own menus and a single waitress serving the entire outdoor patio showed up 15mins later. We ordered and at the 45min waiting mark we were told they put our order in wrong so we had to wait an additional 20mins, bringing us over the hour mark. We thought at least the wait would be worth it. Nope. Dry flavourless burger and a dishonest "crab" dish. I wasn't expecting great quality for the crab melt, something out of a can would have been fine, but the item should have been marketed as an imitation crab melt - imitation crab is this bright red and white pulverized fish paste with added starches and flavours. It's really unpleasant, tastes nothing like crab, and is not something I would have ordered had they been truthful. I brought it up (after waiting another 15mins for our server who was nowhere to be found) and was refunded for the imitation crab but still had to pay for the side items that came included in the dish when you order. Which was ok, the fries were good, but not really the classiest thing to do after trying to swindle diners with imitation food. Such a waste of time.

    While at the VW van event in the area, formerly knows as Bayfield Volkfest, and now in Goderich,…read moreand enjoying the summer like weather at the end of September in 2025, we ventured out for a restaurant meal and found this gem at the local gold course called The Maitland. I was craving a schnitzel and they delivered. Friendly service from the staff there as they were just opening at noon that Friday and we were asked kindly to wait a bit before they opened. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal while seated at the corner table with windows looking out two different directions over the golf course. That itself, was a fantastic feature of dining her. Parking was plentiful, and the drive was fun going under the little arched train bridge. Worth seeking out in the area.

    A hidden gem!!! No really... this place is hidden...down from the top of the hill near the main…read moredrag in Goderich and along a winding little roadway, you drive through an old stone tunnel that opens up to this modest looking little restaurant that is anything but modest when it comes to delicious food, and warm welcoming service. Is the atmosphere modern and high end....no... were we comfortable and had a great view... absolutely... A very cool menu cover opens up to a diverse selection of options to satisfy the whole family with some Eastern/central European favourites that caught my attention....My wife and son went with the seared salmon where I opted for the classic schnitzel....We were all completely satisfied with our meals from the salmon which was buttery, cooked to perfection (that a lot of places screw up) to my extra crispy full of flavour schnitzel on a bed of crispy yet soft spätzle...washed down with a cold Czech Pilsner and a classic gin martini... I was in a very happy place!! But that didn't stop my son from ordering the decadent River fritter... or I think we accidentally called it the River tail... no idea why... but it was delicious!! Looking forward to exploring the menu further on our next visit to Godrich!! Thank you!! Zeke
