What a wonderful place, and wonderful staff as well. The food was amazing, and it's right on a major road. Definitely a great place, must visit if you're in the area.

Such yummy food and very friendly staff! We had Chrissy and she was lovely. Ate donairs to start, my mom had the cabbage roll soup with biscuits that they make fresh, and I had the chicken fillet sandwich. The coleslaw was delicious too! Will definitely be back.

Truly a hidden gem on the south shore! Everything was delicious, the atmosphere and staff relaxed and comforting, portions perfectly sized, service prompt, and prices appropriate! It won’t be too long until we’re back again!

My crew and I stopped here for lunch. The food was incredible! Everyone was very friendly. I wish I lived closer so I could go back sooner than next year. Thank you!

Knowing we were going to be coming through the area on our way to Yarmouth, we scouted out this place to stop in and grab some dinner. We called about an hour ahead, and the staff member who took our order was very lovely. When we arrived to pick up our food, you could tell it was a popular place - busy parking lot! Always a good sign. They do have a few cute little picnic tables to sit at outside. My husband had decided after we ordered that he wanted a coffee; so when I went to pay I asked if we could add a coffee to the order. The staff team said we could but it would be a few extra minutes - they brewed a fresh pot for him which was very thoughtful. My husband ordered a burger with fries and a Smartie flurry; I ordered the crispy chicken club wrap (I added some honey mustard) and a piece of coconut cream pie. I ordered the pie because 1) small diner pie is always the best and 2) it's the one thing I always get when it's on the menu - good judge of quality! My husband really enjoyed his burger, lots of great toppings and good flavour. He had tons of smarties in his flurry, he said almost TOO many (which isn't possible, let's be honest). I did sneak a bite and the ice cream they use is tasty! The chicken wrap was amazing - very generous size and everything was so fresh. Also - REAL bacon bits; I can't stress how important that is. I would go back for another one. But the pie. Oh man, the pie was delightful. I could take or leave the crust (this is true for most pie for me though), however you can tell it's homemade. But the filling was perfect, great texture and flavour and they add whipped cream and toasted coconut. We would definitely eat here again, as staff were friendly and helpful, food was great, and prices fair (our meals came to about 35). Our only suggestion is that perhaps marking the parking lot for take out or eat in would be helpful. We were only stopping to grab take out with our kayaks and utility trailer and two people parked behind us and went into the restaurant to eat. Sorry we don't have photos of the food; I was so hungry and it was so delicious!

Great family restaurant. We stopped in here on our way through the area and had a very pleasant, relaxing experience. Staff was wonderful and it was a safe haven from the weather outside. We both ordered the same thing, the chilli special, which was amazing. Very hearty and thick, filled with beef, and super delicious. We will definitely come back.
