Excellent food! I stopped for a BLT to go. It was too darned good to eat while driving, so I pulled over to devour it. Will go again!

Bit of a hidden gem, tucked away in the back of the Esso gas station. So much to offer and super friendly service. Food ready to grab and go as well as a nice
section for freshly cooked orders. Washrooms are very nice and clean, along with the clean and comfy eating area.
Staff were extremely helpful and accommodating with my special requests for food allergies. Can't recommend it enough.

Been here a couple times already and I find the breakfast very good! The Grizzly meal is delicious! I haven't had the lunch yet but that's on my list when I stop in again. The young lady at the counter is very sweet and nice. The cooks are amazing and quick. Located in the back of the Esso off 28 and there is also a gift shop there you can browse while waiting for your meal to dine in or out.

Stopped by after our camping weekend and was blown away with how good the food was! As it was very hot, we did patio seating, and it was pet friendly, so we were able to bring our dog while we enjoyed our lunch. It's definitely a must stop if passing through!

I wasn't sure what to expect with a restaurant at a gas station, but wow! The prices are excellent, but more importantly the food is excellent. They use high quality ingredients which has been a rarity at restaurants since the Covid shut downs. Everything about our meals was excellent. This is the first restaurant meal I've eaten in four years where I haven't felt disappointed and let down. The food was a 10/10. Great little stop if you're in the area!
