Popular with locals that know and often packed, they deliver high quality breakfast experiences the way it should be. Bacon of the highest standards, eggs over easy that are never runny, the most scrumptious breakfast potatoes, and the friendliest service. My personal favorite thing is that the toast comes to me BUTTERED! No more waiting on a frozen pat of butter to defrost in front of me while my toast gets cold and inedible. What a revelation! Thanks Barnacle Bill for solving this issue that causes millions of breakfast fails around the world daily. Please patent the idea and retire prosperous. Aside from breakfast there's classic local fish and chips, salads, burgers, and a rare treat: Newfie fries-- a poutine with stuffing and gravy. Doesn't get more Canadian than that. Enjoy!

While driving through Cambridge, ON saw this place and decided to drop in for fish and chips.

Service, the ambiance and the way the food was served was more like a fast food joint rather than a proper diner. However place was clean and efficient. The waitress needed a wee bit more training.

The waiter handed the machine to my boyfriend and when he was about to tap his card to pay, she stopped him and asked him to go back and add a tip. When she noticed he had already added a tip, she said the amount out loud (there are many people seated around us), and then allowed him to continue paying. Before this, our waiter was nice but did not seem to pay much attention to us compared to the people around us. Disappointing experience second time around.

The restaurant has a Sunday Brunch buffet. There's a decent selection of foods on the buffet…read more -many breakfast items like eggs, pancakes, waffles, bacon, etc. -baked ham and roast beef - large number of salads including pasta, potato salad, lettuce with a meager selection of "veg", shrimp - desserts like pies and bread pudding Overall, the food was good. Not great. The lineups were long and the buffet isn't situated in a large enough area. You feel like you're on top of the person in front and behind you. The salad selection was ok but nothing stood out as really tasty. In fact, the shrimps were water logged and really crappy. They claim they have 16 feet of desserts. You'd think, "that's a lot of desserts." Nope. They take all the pies and cut them into slices, place them on plates and lay it on a table. So, it's 16 feet of plates. It was hard to get coffee and refills of water as the staff were never around to do so. They were good about clearly plates though. It's an old, tired looking restaurant. Many rooms and no "flow". Just seems odd. I would not return. The cost/value ratio is off the charts.

I thought it would be leaner. My wife enjoyed her steak. The restaurant was packed and very noisy. They don't serve local beer from local breweries, which is a shame. Just the same domestic beer you can get anywhere. I don't see what the big attraction is for this restaurant as it is an overpriced steak house.

Perfection and 5's across the board for me... everything was on point from food (my favourite part)…read moreto service, overall experience and atmosphere. It's a very decent price for what you get, for fine dining. I was SO excited to hear that the tasting menu comes with 2 starters, 2 entrees and 2 desserts. First off, the outside of the restaurant is very unassuming. The signage is pretty basic and you can't really see what's inside. On the other hand, the interior is sleek and modern, very clean. The service is also top notch... they're all very personable and attentive. I felt so special here and it wasn't even my celebration (I came with a group of 7 for my sister's bachelorette) LOL. Onto the highlight, the fooood! For the tasting menu you don't know what you're going to get as it's not listed anywhere, likely because they change up the items so frequently based on what's in season and fresh. I won't go into full detail about all the items because everything was amazinnnng and this would be too long a review. In addition to the tasting menu, we also got a fresh oyster and delicious bread with sheep's milk cheese to kick off the meal.. it was such a pleasant surprise. When the servers bring each dish and explain what everything is, you can really tell that so much thought goes into each dish in terms of how the chef pairs all the flavours and best ingredients. The tomatoes in the salad starter for example, was picked that same morning. Every dish had so many components too -- for my picture captions, I put what I could remember. The flavours in each dish was so elevated, we were all literally spooning out every last drop everytime LOL. I loved the fact that the tasting menu came with 2 of each course because the variety was amazing... each of the two were so completely different from the other. This experience was incredible and so fun to try such good food! I would come here all the time if I could afford to but for now, can't wait until the next special occasion to come again!

The oysters on the half shell were fresh and lovely. Otherwise the entrees were a complete miss. The sea bass was prepared well but sat on a brown mash that looked like black bean slurry and underwhelming. The risotto was a decent portion and cooked properly but flavorless. I'm glad I didn't try the tasting menu which was more expensive! This was intended to be our "nice dinner" for our trip and I would not recommend!
