“My husband and I come to this Williams Fresh Cafe at least once a week, and the new ownership is incredible! The owners are remarkably warm, welcoming people who make you feel right at home—the atmosphere genuinely feels like you’re visiting a relative’s house. The staff are friendly, patient, and highly efficient, ensuring the food always arrives quickly, fresh, and hot. We love how this place brings the community together and highly recommend supporting this wonderful local business!“

“Always have an amazing time at this Kelseys, Montana is our regular server and she is the BEST. Always has our drink orders before we even have to ask and is always checking in on us. Every server we have had is amazing but Montana is the GOAT“

Went back today very busy but very efficient . They had a large party of over 40 people & out food still came out quick. Could see all working as a team. Thank you and see you again soon.“

“Great service and good home style food with many options. Could use a little updating on the decor .“

“My wife and I usually come to Milestones every week or every other week as it’s our local.

We just wanted to highlight what a wonderful time we had last night with Devon.
My wife ordered the butternut squash ravioli, no cheese with a glass of Pinot Grigio, myself I just asked for a glass of the house red. Instead of just giving me any red, he proceeded to ask about my flavour profiles, tannins, and suggested what would work best with my main. We were beyond impressed with his level of knowledge.

He did inform us about a larger group in the building he was also talking care of, but we honestly never felt forgotten, he was around regularly seeing to our needs and exceeded all of our expectations.
He has so much passion for his job and this comes out in his service.“

“I’ve watched the World Cup Multiple times here , and the service is exceptional and the manager shiyanthan was so kind and greeted and made sure everything was done well.
I 1000% recommend going here for the final , so excited to come back and watch the final here :)“

“This cozy restaurant has left the best impression. Came for a romantic date night after a friend recommended it. Great atmosphere, excellent service (Dan was amazing), delicious dishes and drinks, and wonderful dessert. I highly recommend and will be returning again.“

“Awesome service! First time visiting this location and it was so great experience as usual! I got a warm chalet soup with tenders and a cesar salad as an entree, and it was delicious! Our server Julie welcomed us with warm arms and was beyond amazing during our visit. Love love love!“

“Tasty fresh muffins and a pleasant patio.“

“We had supper at this location last evening with my husband’s two daughters and one our granddaughters, her boyfriend and our son-in-law. Andrew was our excellent server who was pleasant and friendly despite having worked all day. He was very attentive and saw to all our requests in a timely manner. He organized individual bills accurately and everything came as ordered. He is an excellent member of your staff, and we hope to be served by him at our next visit!!“

“Jessica was our server. She was amazing. I had ordered Nashville chicken sandwich and it was very good but very wet. Not uncomfortably wet, but wet nonetheless. I was OK with it, I really was. But Jessica was not having it. She insisted that the kitchen remake my entree and even though I’m not one to fuss she made sure I was happy. We’d have come back anyways, but I will absolutely be back simply because of Jessica.“

“My friend and I had an early dinner tonight at the location at 735 Queenston Rd, in Hamilton. Our server was Madeline and she was just great. Have not seen her there before but she was such a great server, humerous, kind and helpful in making our choices. The baked potatoes needed five minutes to go before they were reeady and she was apologetic but it was well worth the wait. Everything was hot and fresh and Madeline made our visit there delightful. We were there from 4 until 5:00 if this is helpful. We do go there a lot but this meal was absolutely the best. Top rating today, without a doubt.“

“Had an amazing experience thanks to Rachel. We were a large group of 14, and she handled our orders with incredible efficiency and a fantastic attitude even though we came so close to closing time. Drinks were flowing, everyone got exactly what they wanted, and she even remembered our preferences throughout the night. We had some issues with our food, My sisters salmon came out burnt and my steak came out bland but she helped us get remakes so we left happy. It's not easy to keep such a big party happy, but she absolutely nailed it. Highly recommend you ask for Rachel next time you go!“

“Excellent service by Chantal. we had the Monday burger specials (again) and were not disappointed. Burgers were juicy and fries done perfectly. I definitely recommend this location. love the atmosphere and the comfy seating.“

“1st time there today, AMAZING ♥️♥️ highly recommend. Food was great, staff very friendly and the coffee...omg!“

“Picked up some Spaghetti and Meatballs for my kid and his buddy earlier today. Service was great and the description was legit that this place is home style. 15 bones for sgetti and meatballs was ok considering there was a good meat to noodle/sauce ratio. My kid is fussy so I wasn’t sure how this would go over but he loved it. Him and his bro rated it at 4.5 stars. I would have given this a perfect score on atmosphere but parking at the strip mall was so so and egress was little dicey. Had to squeal the tires to avoid getting T boned.“

“I don't usually leave reviews but I just wanted to comment on the amazing service I always receive when coming into Kelsey's. I am made to feel welcome and service is fast and accommodating. Cailen and Emily always make delicious drinks as well as provide fantastic recommendations! I look forward to coming back and hopefully being served by them again!“

“A great place to go with my daughter and my parents. Their daily specials can make for such great deals. I especially love their wings, pasta, butter chicken, and the caramalized banana French toast they used to have. Staff is friendly. When Johana is working, she's always so attentive and makes a point of letting us know she recognizes us.“

“The restaurant atmosphere and food was great but we had come before going to the movies and waited over 1/2 hour for our food. Our server was either new or just phoning it in because she didn't even take the drink menus from the table. Management was really apologetic and gave us vouchers for next time and even offered a free dessert. If we didn't have a deadline we would have taken that but declined. Didn't seem to see any other servers that were as inattentive.“

“The waiter seemed completely forced, unfriendly and uninterested. He made a poor drink for the first time around. I asked him to swap it out, after that he just had a terrible attitude. Instead, he could've just said no / Or gotten the manager, and I would've gladly explained. Likely he thought that I was not going to tip anything. Little did he know that I base everything off of attitude. when we first arrive, the hostess acknowledged that it was my daughter's graduation. After that, not a word was that not a dessert was offered nothing. Even though it was acknowledged on the reservation. The spinach dip was below subpar. Nothing like the menu (common for this location) This was my second time in a year and it's just been so disappointing. I frequent the Ancaster and even the Queenston location which has much better service, as well as food presentation/quality. We sat in the bar lounge area... Doesn't matter where we sit though you still expect to get great service. I keep giving this location a chance to continue to be disappointed. This is your lesson and to get better at Service. First things first introduce yourself to the table and say welcome, then acknowledge the celebration on the table. Again, Ancaster and Queenston location are much much better for service, food quality and overall experience! He still received $16 out of my hardened pockets in the gratuity even though I do not recommend. I love to dine out and I've been in the industry for 22 years so you just never know who's sitting at your table. Please try and do better guys people don't have money to waste and it will deter people from wanting to spend money at your location.“

“The iced coffees, latte, cappuccino, are so so. They taste alright, but it's not a strong taste and becomes watered down quickly. The service, although they are polite and what not, it's super slow half the time and that's just to order, heaven forbid you have to be sent to the second window, it will take you even longer. My avg time to get an iced drink this year is easily 10 minutes or so from time of entry. I like the place but I feel if it had closer competition, it would be used less and less by people simply because of the wait times. The last two times I went, I personally heard people say let's go somewhere else, because of the wait.“

“Selina went above and beyond today. I truly have not had a server as kind and caring as her in my life. She also made sure that we were happy with our food!

We will be back for Selina’s outstanding customer service and her bright smile. Thank you so much Selina!!!“

“Cozy“

“When I was on a date with someone we both enjoyed the food. She enjoyed her meal and I enjoyed mine. We look forward to going again.“
