Dry French toast lacking egg saturation. Burger patty unseasoned & bland. Turkey gravy (wallpaper paste!) loaded with flour and tasteless like the soup. Breakfast egg muffin $10! Breakfast for 2 is $35 before tip for cheap sausages, eggs, coffee. Lunches more expensive. Fries & cole slaw pretty good. Please improve your quality and we will be your loyal patrons!

Completely random little burger hut in the middle of a park overlooking a lake. Service was…read moreexcellent and if you like burgers, fried appetizers and more importantly poutine, this place is your jam. We went with another family and basically ordered everything on the menu- burgers were excellent and kids thought having a branded bun was super cool. Poutine with or without pulled pork was excellent BUT portions are enormous, it would be very easy to share with 1 or 2 people. Great little spot and we all loved sitting by the lake eating dinner. Employees were great, food was exactly what we wanted, and it was reasonably priced.

This was our first visit since this resto opened. We came many times to its predecessor,…read moreSummerkiss. We don't like to leave our little poodle at home, he has separation anxiety; we were disappointed to discover that customers w dogs are relegated to picnic tables on the road/lake side. Before, the chairs on the patio were comfortable/good quality outdoor furniture, but I guess these have been moved to a new, second patio which is dog free but still outside. I brought the cushion my dog sits on in the floor and outdoors, so I sat on it on the hard bench picnic table, ha ha. The shrimp appetizer reflected its frozen journey. The predecessor restaurant always has super seafood. The Thai Mussels were small but a really phenomenal sauce (different from the red curry I've had, it was tomato based and delicious, we sucked it down quickly). Husband's burger was bland and disappointing: I talked him into a side salad instead of fries; the salad used iceberg lettuce and was also disappointing. This was our 29th anniversary dinner so he was quite disappointed and says he will not return to this resto. My Lobster roll was really lovely (should be for $34) but very slow coming and missing the grilled corn on the menu. Service was friendly. One of the owners dropped by to chat when we first arrived Drink list is good...while we were waiting and waiting for our burger and roll I ordered a third glass of wine; together w his two beers and the four dishes, our total bill was $195 w tax and tip. A bit much for two disappointing dishes at a picnic table. This is not fine dining in my view, but Summerkiss is a hard act to follow. We are heading to Lands8fifty in Harcourt for my birthday dinner this week; it also represents itself as offering fine dining and I really hope it follows through

We were drawn into Woody's by all the "flair" that surrounded the little place - wood animal…read morestatues abound! Menu prices were a bit on the high side especially since posted prices did not include taxes! We ordered 3 regular burgers (no cheese or bacon), a large poutine, large fries and 3 drinks and our tab was close to $50! I had to veto the ice cream dessert! The burgers definitely tasted home made - a bit on the drier side but they were generous with the toppings so that made up for it. There's a nice outdoor seating area to eat in. Staff are very friendly and offered things like extra napkins and paper plates to divide up our meal. They let us use the indoor bathroom for our little guy instead of the dark and scary outhouse! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area for a meal you don't have to cook yourself!

More like a chip truck out back of the tourist curio shop…read more Meats are usually reminiscent of the stuff at the bottom of the freezer, so a little dry. Atmosphere: Roadside chip-truck. Picnic tables to eat outside, if the weather is good. Alongside Eels' Creek in North Kawartha, village of Apsley across the creek. Staff: Friendly, in a city-folk way. Food: Chip-truck fare a la carte. Salad, burgers, hot-dogs, chicken-on-a-bun, fries, poutine, canned soft-drinks. Be prepared to wait, check out the tourist curio shop. Fries are inconsistent; either overcooked or kept under a heat lamp too long. Prices: Very high for this area, don't forget to add 13%HST to whatever you order. Bacon burger, fries, and soft-drink $21.00 after taxes. Tip: Plastic cup for your spare change, at these prices thy want your change? Facilities: Portable chemical toilet with hand sanitizer, mmm good! Suppose you could wash-up in Eels' Creek.

I went to the ice cream hut, ordered a double scoop cone. I paid first, as I do when ordering a…read morecone, so that I can accept it and eat it without fumbling. The woman who served me, and who was handling cash, picked up an unwrapped cone in her bare hands, topped it with ice cream, and passed it to me. I had already paid or I'd have told her to keep it. I ate the ice cream from the top and threw the remainder away. This is a screaming indication of the level of attention to sanitary practices at Kate's, ensuring that I would never eat anything from their kitchen. If they do this in front of a customer, what are they doing when they cannot be seen? I feel uneasy just thinking about it. The only other review sounds decidedly and suspiciously as if it is an advert composed by the establishment themselves.
