This little roadside joint is in the same parking lot as the Esso gas station. We were down the street at the Little Brown Cow, I found this gem while searching for food in the area. There’s ample seating in the back with picnic tables for you to enjoy your meal. So stinkin’ cute! There’s a good selection of food on the menu and man, everything we ordered was delicious!!! The burgers are smashed with two patties of the freshest butcher meat and topped with your choice of toppings and condiments. We also ordered the fries and gravy and the gravy was some of the best I’ve ever had!! Holy deliciousness. You can taste the quality here! I also grabbed a Reuben sandwich to go for my man as it looked too good. Service is so welcoming and friendly. The owner - Mark, even offered us some complimentary ice cream that the kids absolutely loved. If you’re in the area, definitely stop by! Prices are super reasonable for the quality. An absolute gem of a find.
We grabbed a hot dog, poutine and deep fried pickles and it was so yummy! Hit the spot Mark provided great service and was very friendly, we enjoyed chatting with him after we ate and hearing about some of his travels. We didn’t notice at first, but there are tons of picnic benches behind the shop where we were able to sit and enjoy our meal. It’s a great stop for a Saturday afternoon if you’re exploring the area and need a bite!
If you're looking for fresh & tasting food you should absolutely try it!! We had Burger and buffalo chicken poutine, both were DELICIOUS!! The meat was sooo fresh and the owner, Mark, who was supeeerrr friendly and polite explained that the meat is local and fresh and you could absolutely tell the difference even with most expensive restaurants!! He also offered us icecream from his other stand, OMG! It tasted like HEAVEN!! You could taste the fresh milk and it was not too sweet just PERFECT!! He also use the fresh local milk from the farm market across the road for his icecream. I will be definitely my go to for burgers and icecream! Thank you Mark!
