Not that there's anything wrong with Tofield, I just haven't had a reason to visit before now. The cafe is in the centre of the town rather than off of the highway. We each had the daily special which was a fried chicken folded wrap plus cream of cauliflower soup. The soup was excellent. The wrap was delicious as well although probably larger than we needed. We chatted with the owner as he was very friendly and interesting. The ambiance is casual and comfortable. They are licensed to sell alcohol as well as the food and coffee. The establishment is much larger than it looks as there is another section in the back that is not readily apparent when you first walk in. Talk to the owner about motorcycles and you'll make a friend. I'm sure that we'll be back. After all, Tofield is only 45 minutes from Edmonton.

The menu is not original or inspired but it has the usual classic favourites. The quality is certainly above average. They bake their own bread (you can buy a loaf too). The hashbrowns with my breakfast were made of real potatoes not those square deep-fried things that some places serve. My coffee came immediately and our sever didn't let my cup run dry. The stand out feature is the prices. Check out the photo of my sausage and eggs. That was only $7.50 in 2021. There are plenty of places in Edmonton that will charge $15 for such a breakfast. Quality and outstanding prices earns four stars.

To fully understand our experience at the Hillbilly Grill it's helpful to see it within the whole…read morecontext of our accidental visit to Westlock. We unintentionally ended up in Westlock as a result of a minor medical emergency (don't worry, everyone's ok). While we're waiting for the doctor in our shared room, we observe the cast of characters that Westlock has to offer. Patient number one is this old guy getting injected with a bag of blood who asks the nurse why she's wearing gloves. She explains, to his horror, that she gets a new set of gloves every time she sees a new patient. He loudly complains that this is a waste - he figures you outta be able to lick your hands and wipe them off on your pants and that should be good enough. I'm thinking, "okaaaay, pretty redneck." Not to be outdone, the next patient is a 30-year-old woman who needs some stiches and treatment for rabies! It turns out that she's an old timey fur trapper who got attacked by a wild animal while dragging a 75-pound beaver through the woods. As it happens, the emergency room doctor who was treating her is ALSO a fur trapper so the two of them ease back and start swapping fur trapping stories. Once we were done, we notice that it's nearly 7pm so we ask a nurse for local restaurant recommendations. She sends us to a "place that looks pretty sketchy" called the "Hillbilly Grill" - by now the terms "sketchy" and "hillbilly" do not come as a surprise. When we arrive downtown, we see that the restaurant is located in what looks like a 100 year-old western hotel. Apparently, someone in the 1970's decided to "update" the building and cover up the classic brick with stucco. This 70's style architectural vandalism continues inside the building as I witnessed the interior décor from 1974. I'm thinking to myself that now I know why God had to create a place called Hell. Our experience completely changed when our meal arrived. We get the brisket and the pulled-pork sandwich and I swear to God that it is the best southern-style barbeque I've had this side of North Carolina. Nothing in Edmonton or Calgary touches the high quality of food I had in Westlock. It was tender and moist with just the right hint of smoky flavour. Simply outstanding! While we were enjoying our meal the owner came out to shoot the breeze with us - a 47 year-old man with a crushed cowboy hat, plaid shirt, shorts, and socks with sandals. He tells us this story about how his restaurant got broken into by a local meth-head. "Turns out it was Donna, you know - the lady who owns the bar across the street? Turns out it was Donna's son Larry! I even took a picture of him as he was riding away on his BMX bike while flipping me off. Actually, I kinda feel sorry for the guy. If you're a middle-aged man living in your mama's basement still riding your BMX bicycle around town - then you probably should examine the choices you've been making." Ladies and gentlemen...Westlock, Alberta! If you're looking for some amazing food at a reasonable price with a truly authentic redneck experience you can do no better than the Hillbilly Gourmet Grill in Westlock.

Oh. My. Dear. Lord…read more Last time I was here I split every dessert on the menu with a friend. Worth every calorie. Today I thought actual food may be necessary, and as I have been craving fried chicken, I figured I would give the chicken and waffles a chance. Presentation: the skull sold it for me. Anything that makes a dish stand out makes me happy. Flavour: The chicken breading was so crisp and perfectly seasoned! No chain can compete with his recipe. No dripping grease, just wonderfully juicy chicken. Dare I say, it was moist. In the best way possible. And the waffles? Wow....just wow. Fluffy and delicious. Price: So this massive portion - which is just as generous as all of the portion sizes - comes in just shy of $17!!! Leaves a little money for dessert, if you have room!

And I think it's great Woodrack is here because they're a nice local coffeeshop. I've come here several times to have a coffee. The lattes are great and as someone who's lactose-intolerant I appreciate the plant-based milk options they have (oat milk is my favourite). They have some breakfast and lunch options, and baked goods. These can change, but if the cinnamon bun is there you can't go wrong with that.

Very plain on the inside, it has a homey feel and the staff are very friendly. The menu is pretty much what one would expect in a diner/cafe of this type: breakfast items, sandwiches, salads, burgers, and several entrees. At only $6, the two eggs, hashbrowns, and toast was what was ordered - and it was great. The eggs were cooked perfectly to order, and there was a huge amount of potatoes and toast. Judging by the number of people coming through the doors, JD's appears to be one of the most popular places to eat in Westlock. If I am in the town again, I will definitely go to JD's if I get hungry.
