Gord and I had brunch this morning at Bethune's Bistro…read more We both had the Classic Breakfast ... a nice old school brekkie for $10. The home fries seemed to be made from scratch and the bacon was really crunchy.

The classic breakfast ($9.95) consists of a choice of eggs, protein (bacon, sausage, or ham), home…read morefries, and toast. I'm glad to see their scrambled eggs are made with real eggs and not the boxed liquid ones; I could tell from the telltale flecks of white mixed in with the yolk and denser texture. Their bacon was also tasty: crispy, not too salty, and had a nice smoky flavour. If anything, the home fries could use more time on the flat top to develop a crispier crust, but they were still decent and would pair nicely with fried eggs to create a soft hash. I was excited to see the lovely caramelization on the house pancakes ($9.95 for three) but it didn't really translate into flavour. As pancakes go, they're nice and fluffy but also store-bought tasting, especially when served with packaged table syrup. Bethune's plain house burger ($9.95) reminded me of the ones I had in high school at Johnny Andersons. The beef patty is thicker than McDonalds, but also seems to be mixed with flour as it has a softer consistency. Still, it had a nice crust, and was adorned with all the classic fixings: mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, and onion. The French fries are also a step up from the home fries - crispy, hot, and made with real potatoes. The low prices may partially be attributed to Bethune's lean (but not mean) staff. Even on weekends there's usually only one person out front and presumably one chef. Yet, service was efficient, and I've always felt taken care of and welcomed. If you're in Gravenhurst, I'd recommend skipping fast food and support local at Bethune's Bistro instead. While it's more aptly described as a diner or family-style restaurant (as opposed to a bistro), there's a friendly small-town charm to the place and you won't leave broke or hungry.

Boston pizza was overwrought with tourists (and I'm not personally a fan of the chain), so this seemed like the best option. It's a family run business, a polish family owns it and they live upstairs. Communication might be a bit difficult and the service was a bit slow, but the food was good, the drinks were just what we needed and we didn't have to wait 2 hours at the Boston pizza to be seated. There were some bees and flies out on the patio that were bothersome, but hey it's Muskoka! One of the women who worked there brought out water and pieces of turkey out for our pup to enjoy, which was really nice of her. We ordered the almond pastry, a few beers, the polish sausage, pierogies and a cappuccino. All were great. They closed pretty early, around 3p, but not sure if it was specifically because were there on thanksgiving.

I went back out and the server was having an r-rated conversation with another customer as he was fixing our coffee order. That is not really the type of talk i want to hear in a public establishment. Not impressed.

They have meals, desserts, ice-cream, smoothies, coffee, tea and bubble tea. 3) The line moved really fast. The Food: We ordered an ice cream and smoothie with boba. I love this new trend because I love boba and my boyfriend loves ice-cream. It makes it really easy to accommodate both of us when we try to satisfy our sweet tooth's. - Smoothie with boba: I ordered a mango banana smoothie with boba after I found our the bubble tea mix had dairy in it. I was very happy with this option and it tasted great. It was made with less sugar than boba typically is (score) and had my tapioca pearls. It was delicious and I would order this again. - Moosetraps Ice-Cream: My boyfriend really enjoyed his ice-cream.

I'm not a local to the area, but from what some of the locals tell me, this place is one of the go-to places for fast Asian food and desserts, especially bubble tea.. so much so that some days, the tapioca runs out for the day. The food menu also switches up regularly I hear so there's always something new to try. I tried the fresh fruit shakes here and the ice cream cones and I loved them! For sure this place doesn't compare to some of the places you'll find in the GTA, but it's pretty great for the area. I'm definitely coming back here next time I'm in the area.
