We were greeted and seated right away, and the service stayed quick and polite the whole time. The menu isn't huge, which I actually appreciated as someone who can be super indecisive when there are too many options. I'd seen a picture of their fried chicken sandwich on their website beforehand and knew I had to try it, and wow, it did not disappoint. Juicy, crispy, packed with flavour... honestly, it might be the best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. We also tried the shakshuka, which had bold, rich flavours and was really tasty, but it was hard to compete with that sandwich. One more thing I really appreciated: they don't take tips, and still the service was friendly and professional. All around a great experience!

We…read morevisited on a Saturday evening in June and didn't need a reason as the place was half full, but I can imagine it gets busy in the summer months - so plan ahead! They have both indoor and outdoor seating, but also offer take out and cafe options during the day. The space is airy and beautifully designed, with touches of local art. The food was fantastic, we were pleasantly surprised on how affordable the options are for what you get. The menu changes daily / seasonally, and includes many local items. We started with cocktails - I'd recommend the Frontenac 72, a gin and prosecco based drink with in house berry puree. We tried the fried chicken, pickerel, and shrimp pasta. All were fantastic. For dessert we had both the pavlova and crème brûlée. The highlight of the evening was the staff. Our waitress was wonderful, very knowledgeable and friendly. At the end of the evening the chef came out to chat with those there - which was a nice touch!

ARRIVAL: -I was on a long drive with some coworkers going from Ottawa to Mississauga. We were looking for a place to stop for lunch after driving for about an hour. I found this place on trip advisor and a couple other websites. We decided to stop there because it looked the most comfortable and was directly on our way. -I wasn't sure if it was actually open because a few reviews said it was closed, but it seemed it reopened several months before our visit FOOD: -I had the butter chicken, which was mild, but satisfying. Naan and rice were both solid. -My two coworkers had Buffalo chicken wraps and were not as satisfied as I was. They said there was hardly any Buffalo sauce and the whole wrap was dry SERVICE: -Service was straightforward. -We were seated right away and we got our food fast enough, but it took a while for us to get our food and get the check. We had to flag down our server as she was walking through the room because we were trying to get back on the road.

Normally I prefer my cakes with blueberries or bananas because regular pancakes tend to be dry and boring. Wheelers only makes one type of pancake, regular, but these are anything but regular.

When we walked into this restaurant, we were surprised to see how nicely decorated it was. The decor was chic, as well as being inviting and warm. The restaurant itself was more on the small side however, it was a good fit for the number of customers at the time. Since it was a nice day outside, we decided to eat on the patio. The patio faced the street, and was nicely enclosed with flower pots decorating the edges. Once we had settled down and chose our items, we waited about 15-20 minutes, which we found to be a bit too long. As we were about to ask the waitress where our meals were, we were brought our items. I had settled on the chicken focaccia sandwich with sweet potato fries; the chicken in my sandwich was dry, with only a small amount of garlic spread inside of the bun. I did enjoy the sweet potato fries though, as did my daughter, whom took nibbles of the fries from my plate. My daughter had gotten the pasta with red sauce, which looked like chunks of tomatoes mashed up, and spread on the top of the dish. The taste was also inadequate, as my daughter hardly ate it. My mother settled on the fish tacos, which were heavily battered. My son chose the hamburger, which he enjoyed, especially with the fries on the side. We weren't too keen on the food, as many of the food items were subpar, and the prices were high. Luckily, the children ate free, as the restaurant had a deal that all children ate free on Sunday. We found that to be a plus however, the price was still high despite the removal of two children's meals. Overall, this restaurant had a nice ambiance however, the food wasn't worth the price, and we didn't find the service to be accommodating. Despite asking about recommendations for the area, the waitress told us that she wasn't aware of what was available, and to just walk up and down the main road. We were hoping for more of a recommendation however, we didn't receive it. We definitely wouldn't return to this restaurant in the future if we were in the area again .
