There are plenty of botiques and other dining places nearby. You would get the option of patio dining outdoors or indoor seating. Food is standard diner fare with nothing noteworthy. There is an option to "poutinize your fries" for an extra $4.99, which I find a little bit much for the cheese curds and gravy. I did enjoy the Zak's Famous Milkshake ($8.99) and Ice Cream Float ($6.49). The Milshake was creamy and came with a metal cup filled with extra milkshake / whip cream. We came to have lunch a little past noontime rush. It was nice that we, a group of 2 people, were allowed to move to a table for 4 when we requested it. It was always welcome to have more elbowroom. Their table for 2 is a little bit cramped when you also have a bag or some other things with you.

The "combo" comes with just that, a burger and a shake. No fries, they're extra, so he ordered a small fry. I ordered a crispy chicken burger and I asked my boyfriend to get me a poutine. They only come in two sizes, small or large. When my boyfriend asked what the sizes looked like, the girl behind the counter showed him drink cups, a small drink cup or a large drink cup. Confused, my boyfriend asked if the poutines were served "in the cups" and the answer was "Yes.", so he ordered a large poutine. I asked for an iced tea to drink figuring it would be fountain, but no, it was in a bottle. All in, we spent nearly $50.00 for our lunch!!!! I couldn't believe it! I was incredulous! My crispy chicken burger was good, the bun was definitely not your run of the mill burger bun. The toppings were fresh. My boyfriend enjoyed his burger it was well cooked, toppings were also fresh. The fries were very well cooked, the gravy was good and they used curds in the poutine. I only gave four stars because the of the price point. I suppose I was expecting "chip stand" prices. Otherwise the experience was and food were good.

Showed up here on a Saturday mid-morning after visiting Crappy Tire and the place was busy, but…read morecertainly not at capacity as there was at least four 4-seater tables open and a couple of two seaters right in front of the door. No line-ups. We weren't keen on sitting by the door due to the draft coming in. We were told we had to wait for a two-seater because they didn't want us to take up a four seat table. We're like wtf??? I can see this if you the hot new restaurant in town and huge demand, but quite literally there was four 4-seat tables sitting empty and no line-up. In any event, we stayed, sitting in some two-seater jammed in the corner. And then we ordered a breakfast. I'm a Ozempic user, so I don't eat much - I was going to take an egg, a piece of bacon, and a couple of potatoes from my wife's plate. Oh - can't do that. There's a $2 "sharing charge". Like, wtf? I'm done with this place and their stupid policies. The food is typical diner fair that you can get any diner, nothing special here.

Cindy's is a traditional old-time diner with great food and great service (served by Cindy herself).

A real diner experience in Stittsville! How had I not been here yet?! My friend got a pizza and swears by it for her family. It was sooo cheesy and too rich/thick for me as I had tried half a slice. But that's me. I had a smoked meat sandwich that was pomped on the menu as piled high... It wasn't but hey... Inflation is real. Fries. Peeled and freshly made. The gravy I got on the side took me back to my youth. Coleslaw was fine. I can't wait to go back and try something else. The menu was big!

What a terrific place. We went there for breakfast the other day and loved it…read more The service was quick and friendly. The ambiance was pub-like but with booths and some chair seating. The food that I had was excellent. The bacon was perfect; not too salty and just done right. The eggs were scrambled perfectly too. Rye toast lightly buttered and the home fries? Actual chunks of potato prepared on the grill and I opted for the extra onions for added flavour. Will definitely return for breakfast. We'd been there for supper and their pizza is excellent too. Must review that one soon!

I stopped by Meltwich for some takeout. I got the Standard Burger Combo (regular hamburger, small…read morefries and a canned drink) which is $10 on Mondays. Otherwise, it costs $8 for the burger, $3.50 for the fries and $2 for a can of soda. They don't usually have combo prices, it's all a la carte. The burger was pretty good and even though the fries were a thicker cut they were still good, although I found my quantity of fries on the skimpy side. The beef patty was pretty tasty and I liked the brioche bun it came on. I got lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and chipotle sauce as the toppings. The fries were crispy and surprisingly not mealy despite being thicker cut. Service was friendly. The wait wasn't too long for the food. There are some seats inside to dine-in. I like that they have specials everyday, even on weekends. Street parking only.

Recommended by website a good lunch in byward market…read more Ordered oreo milk shake and root beer float. Both are tasty. I ordered king eddy breakfast that comes with bacon, rye bread, 2 fried eggs and very small cup of chili (sample size you get from supermarket). I also upgraded to poutine. The breakfast are decent.

I think they have partnership with next door lil z pizza. Flop. And not as good as pizza pizza. Corn dog kids also are men. Services was excellent. Waitress was attentive. Nice and smiling.

Waitresses are all very nice and polite! Boyfriend had some breakfast plate and coffee, I had my usual corn dog with fries and salad, and a margarita. Our meals were great. Beans served with his breakfast were well seasoned and delicious. Fries are noticeably freshly made and so tasty - and I'm picky about fries. I guess my only complaint would be my drink - both today and on our previous visit, they seem to have changed their margarita mix or recipe - it tastes different and I liked it better before. Too bad because this place used to be in my top-3 fave margarita spots (with Antica in Niagara Falls and Little Grill in Littleton NH!).
