    I went to North Grenville/Kemptville for a daytrip, and I really enjoyed the takeout I got from the crusty baker! I chose a sandwich, soup, and a couple of baked goods. I was most impressed with the baked goods; the butter tart was indulgent, and the scone had great flavour. I would prefer baked goods instead of the savoury food; I found the sandwich could have had more volume of toppings, and the soup was a small portion for $6.50. However, service was very friendly and helpful! I will return for baked goods when I am back.

    Had stopped in for lunch and had the soup and sammich du jour. the sammich was a pickled roasted red pepper with baby spinach and brie cheese with some sicy salami and tomato on some great crusty italian bread. Very tasty. Some might find the salami slightly spicy. The soup du jour was so good. A home made chicken and leek soup. Great flavor! $16 before tip with a baguette of rosemary and sea salt. Definitely will be back.

    I fully concur that the breads are fabulous. I have done the soup and sandwich lunch numerous times and enjoyed the creativity of the menu that changes daily. I have also loved the crepes whether morning or afternoon- regular or savoury- as a main or dessert. So far a seat has been available whenever I have visited though at times space seemed at a premium. Breads amongst the best I have tasted. Even better is a soup you rate as topnotch and then return again for a 10.

    Pheasant and apple soup and pulled pork half sandwich!! Yummmy!!

    Perfect antidote to the crappy food you are exposed to on the typical 401 journey between Toronto and Ottawa.

This was perfect location wise just being a short distance from our hotel. Getting into the area early Saturday morning meant tons of street parking so that was no issue. Stepping inside they have plenty of seating and I can imagine it would be a perfect spot to study for college classes for the students. The space was open and felt inviting. Service was friendly and quick with no issues. One worker taking care of drinks while another worked on the food with the one more free taking orders. They have most of what you would expect a coffee spot to have drink wise for both coffee and teas with seasonal and special flavors too. Food wise they have loads of breakfast and lunch bagel sandwich options with a good variety of bagel flavors to change it up as well. Drink wise my wife got their pumpkin latte seasonal and loved it, while I got the Brown Sugar Cinnamon Latte that was solid once mixed a little more. Food wise we both liked the sound of their Lumberjack that came with two eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese, and a maple syrup drizzle. We differed on our bagel choice with my wife picking cinnamon raisin and I chose cinnamon French toast. Both bagels were delicious and well made and the sandwiches were tasty just would likely ask for either lighter maple syrup or none next time. Made quite a mess and made it a bit too sweet but no real complaints. We were happy to try this spot out and would be a spot we would frequent if we were local! Good drinks and tasty bagels with really endless choices for sandwiches when you consider all the bagel choices. If you want a bagel meal if you are in the area check this place out!

    Nice eatery and great choices of bagel add ons. This black is quant and clean. Fast serviceread more

Also the pastries and baked goods are magical. Decadent cookies, flaky croissants, which is seemingly their specialty with cruffins (muffins made with croissant dough and filled with magic) traditional croissants, and cinnamon sugar morning buns, which are all on the menu daily. The cruffins are perfection. My personal favourite is the lemon blueberry, the perfect balance of buttery, tart and sweet. The morning buns are delightful sugary goodness, brownies are rich and luscious, and they have the best ginger molasses cookies around.. There's honestly options for everyone, simple but delicious for the kids, traditional picks to please anyone and elevated unique fare for the adults - including craft beer to top off a fantastic meal. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Perth and locals alike. But go early if you're going for the baked goods, they sell out fast!

One of my colleagues is from Perth and when I told her my husband and I were doing a day trip to Perth as part of our staycation, she recommended we have lunch at Fieldhouse. I love bakeries, so we followed her recommendation. The place is a lot smaller than I expected. It only has seating for 8 inside (4 tables of 2) and 4 picnic tables outside (so seating for about 16 outside). I got the Chicken and Brie sandwich ($14.75) and added a side salad for my husband and I to share ($5). My husband got the Ham and Swiss sandwich ($14.25) and we also got a cruffin ($5.25) for dessert, but ended up taking it home. Before we left my husband got an Americano to go ($3). I enjoyed my sandwich. The bread was crusty and held the ingredients of the sandwich well. The peppery arugula in the sandwich went well with the chicken and Brie. I was thrilled that the chicken was real roasted chicken breast meat (and not deli meat, lol). The aioli was flavourful but a bit excessive in quantity for my tastes. It dripped onto the plate with every bite, lol. The salad was leaf lettuce, shredded cabbage and carrots. Vegetables were fresh. I asked for the dressing on the side and it came as requested. The dressing was a creamy dressing and on the runny side. I'm glad I asked for it on the side, as I used only about a third of it. I had a bite of my husband's sandwich and it was ok, but I much preferred mine. He liked his better, so it all worked out. His was on a fluffier and softer bread. The ham was deli ham, but it tasted ok. The Swiss cheese was nippy. Service was pleasant. My husband enjoyed his Americano. We had the Brownie Cruffin at home. The pastry was flakey and delicious. The chocolate filling was like a rich chocolate pudding. It was very decadent. Overall we enjoyed our meal, but I found it a bit pricey, but I guess in today's economy, this is what you pay for sandwiches. Street parking only. (125)
