Restaurants near Lakefield

“Best food I have had in a very long time. Excellent service and amazing value!!”

“Today was the first time I have been in since Jeremy officially became owner and he did not disappoint. As always, the treats we purchased for my daughter's sweet 16 dinner, were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS 😋. The Dirty Shirley was fantastic and the customer service was the icing on today's visit. A smile and hello, having someone who takes pride in their products and describes them enthusiastically and then offers a good-bye and have a nice day, are not something I experience often these days ☺️”

“We stopped here for lunch. The roasted cauliflower soup was amazing, and the sandwiches were delicious. A great atmosphere and great service.”

“Absolutely delicious and fresh 😍 So many awesome flavors it was hard to choose!”

“First time having take out here... Everything was amazing!!!!! Can’t wait to try more off the menu Thank you!!!”

“busy but the service and food was spot on.”

“Stopped in for an ice cream cone with my dog Levi. The staff were so friendly and gave Levi a treat. Delicious! we will recommend this place.”

“Tucked away along the waterfront, this restaurant delivered one of the most satisfying dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. The view alone is worth the visit — calm water, a gentle breeze, and a sunset that felt like it was made just for us. But the real star here? The food. I ordered the double bacon and triple cheese burger, and it was everything you want in a guilty pleasure meal: juicy, rich, and stacked high with perfectly melted cheese and crispy bacon that somehow didn’t overpower the burger. The bun held everything together without getting soggy — a small detail, but a game-changer. Every bite was a mix of bold flavor and serious comfort. My girlfriend went with the steak, cooked medium-rare, and it was spot-on. Tender, juicy, and seasoned just right — no fancy sauces needed. It came with a side of roasted potatoes and asparagus. Service was friendly and relaxed — not rushed, but always attentive. Whether you’re out for a date night or just want to treat yourself, this place hits the mark on food, vibe, and location. We’ll definitely be back.”

“During non-Covid times, loved eating there. So busy. Tonight's take-out Halibut & Chips were far from good. The halibut was not fresh and had a spoiled taste. So disappointing. Will wait til they are open and food is fresher.”

“Great food, good atmosphere and amazing service. A lovely family run restaurant where every customer is treated like family. Our server Jake made it a great experience for our group, which consisted of 10 adults and 4 kids. Definitely a place to grab a few drinks and some grub with the family.”

“Ordered an 8 inch, 3 layered, red velvet, coconut cake for my birthday and they delivered flawlessly. Walking in, the place was very nice with a wonderful aroma in the air and very alluring sweets available for purchase that all looked incredible. They handed me my cake and were very kind, and when it was time to eat it, it was absolutely everything I wanted in every bite. I, and my family approve!!”

“I stopped by this Tim Hortons recently and had a pretty average experience. The coffee was fresh and tasted just how you’d expect, and my order was prepared fairly quickly, which I appreciated. The staff were polite, and helpful.”

“Not sure what all the negative reviews are for. Pizza and wings were very good, buddy behind the counter was friendly. And it was ready within 15-20 min. 5 stars.”

“The Lakefield Subway is usually my first option for a to go lunch, during work. The sub masters behind the counter are always really kind and I’ve seen them take a lot from customers. I get the same sub every time and it’s always delicious. The cookies are soft and my favourite part of my meal, besides the friendly workers. Love this Subway.

Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere is a good spot to take children. Lots of seating and I think they have booster seats (could be wrong, I’ll check next time I go). Lots of extra napkins available and the washroom is accommodating.”

“Been going there for over 25 years and have yet to have one bad meal, or bad service. Some of the best food I have ever had. When I was out of the area in Toronto they were my gold standard of Chinese food, and I never found a restaurant that matched thier quality in Chinese food.”

“Low rating because they didn’t toast our bagel.....buttered, cheese and tomato....don't really taste the same ....and it was at the drive thru....
Please do better!”

“The staff are great. When we order and go through the drive thru they always give our dog a pup cone. She loves it and the staff loves it too. They feed her her cone and are so kind to our her. Great fun for the summer.”

“stop in just about every Monday for the 1/2 price wings, always done to perfection. Looked after by Ashley, she is the best.”

“Vik was so accommodating and welcoming and told me to let him know if I didn’t like the burger. I don’t write reviews often but this is worth the review, the burger and fries were both incredible. Best burger I’ve had in a long time. Will be back”

“The food is amazing, the atmosphere is beautiful and the service is exceptional!”

“Amazing flavors ! can't wait to come back and try more of them !”

“Poco Burro is absolutely my favourite burrito place in Peterborough! They have a good selection of fresh toppings and sauces, and I always love to chat when I come in for my work lunch breaks (almost every day lol). Along with all the classic protein options like carnitas, pollo asado, and barbacoa, they actually have a solid selection of vegetarion options that go beyond just bean and cheese or sauteed veggies. Though their bean and cheese burrito is nothing to be slept on. If you're looking for a solid, reliable staple burrito place, you've found it.”

“Brother Pizza is one of our favorite spots! Their pizza is always fresh, вкусy, and made just right with great toppings. The wings are just as amazing — perfectly cooked and full of flavor. On top of that, the service is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food and great service!”

“I've been a loyal customer of this family owned restaurant since shortly after they opened. their perfectly seasoned Shawarma is the area's best, and they have some interesting regional offerings worth exploring. They offer great food, friendly service, and the premises are well kept. I recommend checking them out.”

“My 10 year old recently attended the PA day D&D camp, and had a fantastic day. Dylan was extremely responsive and helpful with our many questions. Highly recommend.”

“Just finished the most SPECTACULAR take out Christmas dinner created by Chef Martin. DELICIOUS and very GENEROUS PORTIONS!!”

“Tasty food, friendly staff, best shawarma with original taste 😋”

“Absolutely the freshest and tastiest food in Peterborough. You will be pleased, for sure. The prices are great for the quality, and quantity. Fantastic! John”

“Planned a lunch with my friends of 50 years to go to Pizza Alloro for the first time. The pizza deluxe was amazing. The food was hot and the pizza was loaded with toppings. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was delightful. We will be going back for sure. Worth the drive from Peterborough”

“My favourite restaurant! So hard to find a good old-fashioned diner/coffee shop! Friendly staff and great coffee and food! Highly recommend!”
