We spent the morning touring the gorgeous gallery, enjoying every part of it. We determined lunch would be at The Cabin Restaurant. Three of us ordered the Cobb Salad. Disappointing at best. A scant amount of pre-cooked plumped chicken, a small boiled egg, a little bit of blue cheese and a dollop of mashed avocado with a tiny amount of unrecognizable dressing, but they did top it off with a fair amount of bacon. For $24, they need to try harder. One person ordered the Tuna Niçoise which is called that for the small, specific Niçoise olives, sadly replaced by Queen, pimento stuffed olives. The seared fresh tuna looked good, all in all, the Niçoise is better value than the sad Cobb. Service was good, and the espressos and cappuccino were great.

This restaurant is in the Mc Micheal Art Gallery. A very airy, bright and clean establishment. Prices and portions are reasonable and the service is very quick. A nice way to finish or start your day at the gallery.

We stopped in for lunch during a gallery visit and were delighted by the excellent food and wonderful service from Judith. Despite it being a busy day at the gallery and restaurant, we were seated promptly and our drinks, appetizers and meals came along at an efficient pace — no rushing, but just exactly as they should. We really enjoyed chatting with Judith and will definitely be back soon.

The food was good. The service awful. My wife and I ordered lunch. She was served. I was not. I had to track down the server. She said the meal would be discounted, acting as if she was doing us a favour. She took 50% off my burger. Then looking at my bill she had charged for 3 burgers. A further wait ensued. Foolishly I left a tip. This woman appeared to be the manager. The other staff seem to be trainees who are better at bussing tables than interacting with guests. The food was good.

We popped into the small cafe at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg, in the city of Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, on an afternoon the other day after a three-hour tour of the gallery. The space was fine - with big windows offering good views of the Humber River Valley. We had avocado toast, chopped salad and chocolate brownie with coffee. They also have truffle grilled cheese, smoked fish toast and cabin cheeseburger. The service was warm and relaxed - perfect for a slow afternoon between gallery strolls.

The Avacado Toast was pricey, but quite good. I was genuinely surprised by how bad the brewed coffee was, though. I'm not a coffee snob, but this was like a watered-down cheap coffee, brewed yesterday, and then microwaved. Arrived at the Gallery at noon, to be warned that the restaurant was closing soon, due to a private event. Disappointed that they were all out of samosas.

We were very disappointed that the Cabin restaurant closed at 1pm, exactly at the time of our arrival, even though it was supposed to stay open all afternoon. We had come with our friends and were hoping to eat lunch before exploring the collections, as there is no other other restaurant on site. The restaurant was closed for a private function, but this was not made clear to us when we bought the tickets, nor was there an announcement on the website on the day itself.

Veeeerrrryy good food. Surprising for a museum to be honest. Everything ordered was great quality and tasty. Staff are also friendly and quick
Had a bite while we visited the gallery. A bit pricey for the portions but a lovely experience nonetheless

Soup of the day was sour and not tasty at all. There is a little chose in pastries. I would suggest to review your menu.

Such a charming spot! We dined in a cozy cabin with a breathtaking view of the snow falling outside. The food was comforting and delicious, and the atmosphere was so warm and inviting. Perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal on a snowy day

The CABIN Café at the McMichael Art Gallery in Kleinburg was a delightful discovery during our visit. After exploring the gallery, sitting down to a meal here felt like the perfect way to wrap up the experience. The menu offers a mix of comfort food and creative dishes, and everything we tried was delicious. Their Cabin Cheeseburger burger with crispy kettle chips was flavorful and satisfying, and the smoked trout toast stood out as a personal favorite with its fresh and vibrant taste.
Another highlight was the truffled grilled cheese was indulgent, paired beautifully with curried ketchup and pesto sauces, while the pictured avocado toast with a side of crisp salad was equally enjoyable.
On another earlier visit, I tried the Tuna Nicoise Salad, a refreshing and light option, while my companion had the Chopped kale, cabbage, Beet Hummus salad, which was crisp and flavorful. To top it off, a cappuccino paired with a slice of chocolate XO cake made for a satisfying late-afternoon treat. The café's welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and stunning views from the picture windows added to the charm. Whether you're hungry after a gallery tour or just in the area, the CABIN Café is a must-visit!
