It was a nice day so we ate outside in a garden setting. I had the Clubhouse with home fries. The sandwich was exceptional. It had real chicken! The tomatoes were nice and ripe and tasty. And yes, you could find the bacon as people sometimes skimp on this. Yummy. The home fries was really fried potatoes medallions. This was greasy so had to use napkins to remove the excess grease. The others ordered the Peameal Bacon on a bun and the Mushroom omelet. I didn't try but they thoroughly enjoyed their meals also. This had a family run feel to the restaurant. It was a pleasant break to the walking. I would return.

The Thornton Ice Cream Parlour and Cafe is exactly what you dream of stopping in when passing…read morethrough a small town. It's humble on the exterior, and very cozy and rustic on the interior. The daily specials are clearly marked on the board and the array of vibrant ice cream tubs stare back as you battle your impulses. Just get a scoop! I was there with my partner for a quick snack and a scoop. There was a back bacon sandwich on the menu, which we decided to share. The woman who took the order (probably one of the owners) was very friendly and a wonderful host. She brought us the sandwich, cut in half, on separate plates - honestly felt like being in my aunt's house. The sandwich was delicious and just hit the spot! We got a couple of kiddie scoops and went on our way. I'll definitely stop by again when I am in the area.

Amazing little diner in a small town vibes, they had a list of daily specials and prices were excellent. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes with bacon & eggs, and everything was amazing.

Service was friendly and definitely made me feel welcome. I am hoping that I can make my way back some day soon!

The restaurant took our name and phone number and told us the wait would be approximately 30 minutes. We returned after waiting 40 minutes only to be told their system wasn't working and they were no longer seating customers. The problem isn't that their system failed--things happen. The problem is that they already had our name and phone number and made absolutely no effort to contact us. If we hadn't walked back to ask, we would have continued waiting indefinitely for a table that was never coming. We even offered to pay with cash, but they still refused to seat us, despite having put us on the wait list 40 minutes earlier. They simply dismissed us. This showed a complete lack of respect for their customers and our time. A simple phone call or someone stepping outside to notify the people waiting would have taken only a few minutes. Instead, they chose to leave customers standing around with no communication whatsoever. There are plenty of restaurants in Collingwood that value their customers' time. Based on this experience, this isn't one of them.

After searching for a breakfast place, the line at flapjacks was not too long so we decided to give…read moreit a go. The menu was super similar to most breakfast places, the Vé u was quite tightly packed, and it came accords as your average "diner-like" breakfast joint - and it was. While the food was not bad, and the service was great, it was nothing particularly special and there were a couple things that stood out and brought down the review. Knives: I could not cut pancakes with my knife. No one could cut their food with their knife. Please buy new cutlery for the restaurant. Also, I suggest investing in some new knives for your kitchen staff. My poor tomato slices looked like that had lost a battle when they arrived on my plate. Bathrooms: there are two identical single use bathrooms at the back of the restaurant - men and women. There is absolutely no reason that both these bathrooms could not be dual use. Both were clean enough, had toilets and sinks, and a locking door. Also, please put a change table in the second bathroom - it's a cheap one from IKEA, does the job, and helps out all parents! Otherwise, breakfast way pretty ok! Eggs were good, food was hot, coffee was flowing. The pancakes were a little...tough(?), which was made worse by the awful cutlery - but all in all, I would eat here again if need be for the price point.

( I went to the one in the south end) the staff is very friendly and seems to know a lot about their product. I got a Açai Bowl and a smoothie. Both very tasty, all their products come in compostable packaging, which is great to see in a company. The prices were quite high. However it is very convenient, if you wish to save on money you can do all these things at home for much cheaper, but it is good for on the go! Can be quite filling as well , even though the quantities seem small. Will go back sometime to try other products !
