“Fries are so good. Crunchy bits and soft centres. Delicious!! His home made corn dogs are huge and so tasty. Fluffy batter that gets golden and crispy. You can choose hot dogs or sausages. Worth the stop every time you’re close by(or not). Good place to stop before golfing at Timber Run or Blue Heron!”

“best pizza in the highlands!”

“Always a great dining experience! From the greetings upon arrival to the outstanding food and service Gather is a must-try restaurant. Most recently we attended the French-themed dinner in May and, as always, we were not disappointed.

“If you find yourself near Perth, Ontario as Mark Brunet and I did last Saturday, do yourself a favour and stop at Hourglass. A fabulous restaurant with delicious fresh food and coffee and a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The owner David and his wife Hayley are wonderful, this was the highlight of our drive home! And the surprise carrot cake to go was over the top!! Thank you David & Hayley, you made our day 🙂”

“What a Gem in my backyard. My daughter and I attended the Perth Night Market on May 28. We stopped in at the end of the night for something to take home. I purchased Lemon Tarts and Coconut Cream tarts. They were amazing. The right amount of pastry and the perfect amount of filling. They have a fan for life”

“We went for a birthday, birthday girl had a broken knee and they provided an extra chair to make her feel comfortable. Drinks were amazing, food was delicious. Honestly the best part was the atmosphere. So relaxed, so welcoming, we were talking to the other tables about their food and what they were thinking. We will be going back for sure!”

“If I could give 10 stars for Jordan and her team at Picnic I would. We had a last minute catering order for my grandfather’s funeral and they took our order on without blinking a eye. The food they prepared was outstanding and very well appreciated by all the guests. Thank you Jordan for making our day that much easier by preparing an outstanding spread.”

“Very good service and excellent food. Hello from France.”

“Not only was the food delicious, but the portions and prices were great; which is something you don’t come across much these days. There was hardly any wait time and I got to have a lovely conversation with the owner while I waited. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best poutine I’ve had in town hands down.
10/10 would, and will be recommending ✨”

“Bistro 54 for years has been one of our favourite restaurants for a special dining event. Most recently on a very warm evening at the end of May we sat on the patio between the stone walls of The Bistro and the building next door. Really gives a feeling of a place in France or Italy. Owners Dave and his wife Nicky are always fun to chat with. Servers Stacey and Marcella are always attentive and on top of things.”

“Awesome fish and chips! We did take out. Beautiful park nearby to eat at when you have your pet with you. The staff were really kind and even brought water outside for our dogs. Definitely worth checking out when in Perth.”

“We only get to visit Perth once a year but Michael’s Table has become a required meal during each visit. I was so excited to watch the remodel and hear about the new menu and was thrilled to finally be here to check it all out! Delicious food, wonderful drinks, loved the remodel and already can’t wait until our 2026 visit.”

“Just ordered yet again the 2-4 one deal smash burgers for son for after work.Seriously the best burgers around.Consistency is on point!🙌👏”

“My niece was recently married in Perth and the wedding dinner was held at Maximilian Restaurant. I have always been impressed by the quality of the food and the wonderful service but Joan and her staff truly outdid themselves on this special occasion. They had closed the dining room to the public as we were a large group. From the moment we entered we were made to feel welcome. We were greeted by friendly staff and a beautifully decorated venue. The appetizers were unique, beautifully presented and mouthwatering. We had been offered options for the main course and everyone enjoyed their delicious meal. ( many of us had to take home what we could not eat - the portions are very generous) Dessert did not disappoint either. The staff were very busy ensuring that no one was kept waiting and they were able to deliver meals quickly, efficiently - and always with a smile. The bartenders were kept busy as well and the drinks were great. Joan circulated around the room several times to speak with guests and ensure that everyone was happy with their meal choice, the drinks and the service - and we were ! Thanks very much Joan and all staff - servers, chefs, kitchen staff and bartenders - as well all the people behind the scenes who helped make this occasion even more memorable for this very special couple. Everything was wonderful!”

“what a scam. came in with my toddler for free cone day and they said unless you already had the app a day ago there would be no free cone, and management denied making it right. so many people in the line were told the same thing just while I was there... so you had an entire day that you lured people in with their kids for free cones and then were forced to pay..? seems like a cash grab, wonder how much Dairy Queen made on that one. terrible customer service.”

“5 Stars – A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Perth! Rocky River Cafe is an absolute must-try. The staff are friendly and attentive, the food is consistently delicious, and the drink menu has something for every summer vibe. The patio dining area strikes the perfect balance between tranquil ambiance, laid-back summertime chill, and small-town charm. What really stands out is how welcoming and accommodating the entire experience is—from the service to the setting. The prices are reasonable, and the attention to detail in both food and atmosphere is clear. Located just steps from Perth’s most beautiful park, around the corner from local hotel and directly across from a large public parking lot, it’s perfectly placed for visitors and locals alike. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful meal or a vibrant summer outing, Rocky River Cafe is a place to be shared, experienced and enjoyed!”

“The food here is so good, we especially liked the beef broccoli. The service here is 10 stars. It was our first time trying Hot wok, but definitely will be a repeat customer.”

“Best poutine I've ever had in Ontario!! Fresh hand-cut fries, real cheese curds, and the correct sauce! WINNER!! (I didn't get a picture of the poutine because I gobbled it up too fast) 😋”

“By far my favourite gluten-free bakery. They are somewhat far from me as I live in Ottawa, but several times a year I take a drive up to Perth visit their bakery location.

The fresh cookies and bread are absolutely amazing, particularly the ginger molasses cookies. They also have a great selection of pantry items and frozen prepared meals.

If you call the day before you arrive, they are also typically able to make you your own larger-batch order of cookies! They often sell out fast so this is a good option to make sure you get what you want.”

“Amazing food smash burgers are huge and so good poutine is amazing gravy is delicious and fries are huge and perfectly seasoned! We will be back again very soon!”
