“the good was wonderful and excellent service too.”

“the food is excellent! the service is swift and kind! (thank you Kristen)”

“Such a breath of fresh excellence air!!”

“We had our anniversary dinner at Shanny's last night, and wow, were we ever impressed! I seem to have the curse of always having some kind of issue with my food when we go out and always being disappointed, but there were absolutely zero issues here. Everything we had was so very good.

We had the braised apple pork belly appetizer, the tenderloin and chorizo pappardelle for entrees with some duck fat new potatoes and the creme brulee and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. We really loved the pork belly, and would return just for that. The tenderloin was cooked to perfection and the risotto that accompanied it was delicious. The pappardelle tasted so fresh. The desserts were also amazing. Portion sizes were very good, we certainly didn't leave hungry!

The only downside is that the price is high, but compared to other more expensive places in the area this one is worth it! Service was friendly and prompt, and the decor and vibe was nice as well. Overall a really great experience. I would highly recommend a visit if you are looking to dine the area! Sorry no photos, the food was so good we didn't even think about looking at our phones :)”

“Got a personal 2 topping pizza here, and it was exactly what I needed for a hot lunch.

Went in around 1 pm, not too busy, took around 10 minutes for my order to be ready.

Clean front of store, music was a bit loud, but not offensively so.

I hadn't been to this location before, but you always receive the same quality food. Service was ok, very prompt and efficient.”

“Wonderful staff. Great food!”

“einfach alles lecker. Jederzeit gerne. Leider geht es nur mit Reservierung, aber das ist ok. Dann kann ich mich schon vorher drauf freuen. Ich kann es nur Empfehlen.”

“Amazing fresh bread selection. great pastries, wonderful sandwiches, excellent dessert trays. Mama's Frozen meals are fabulous! So wonderful to find a premade frozen meal brand that is nutritious & delicious! Lots of flavour but not heavy on the salt. Decent size meat protein portions, not skimpy. I broke my dominant hand & wrist and have been unable to cook, Mama's meals have been a lifesaver! Satisfying but not heavy.”

“The baking and service have always been exceptional, but the newly-opened cafe adds greatly to a costumer's enjoyment.....bright, welcoming and beautifully-decorated, WELL DONE!”

“Wow! The food is so good!”

“Great spot! thanks for supporting local baseball teams!”

“I purchased my first gluten free item here as we had relatives visiting with celiac. The chocolate cake was devoured by all- truly amazing! What a positive and inclusive environment and amazing dessert too! Thanks so much!!”

“We tried tonight first time . was impressed. lots of meat and taste was good . Restaurant clean , tables , floors . Cost abit more then subway but at least you can see the meat on the sub.”

“Food is excellent as is the service. 5/5.”

“Great spot, our go to for many years, need a new name for the “Americano” though. Let’s wave the flag and get a naming contest going.”

“Best breakfast choices & always done right. The schnitzel is done perfectly for breakfast, lunch or supper with 8 variations, super yummy! prices are really good & service is also great...”

“Visited two weeks ago. Delicious food, engaging hostess/owner. Would highly recommend dining there and will definitely return when next in Owen Sound. Try it, you’ll love it!”

“Delicious cupcakes, very accommodating, great service.”

“Pizza Pizza is by far the best pizza place in Owen Sound. Always fresh pizza and fast friendly service. I highly recommend it.”

“I've tried several things on the menu, each was a masterclass.
The Greek chicken wrap had probably the most tender chicken I've ever had anywhere.
My favorites so far have been the Philly cheesesteak and the aforementioned chicken wrap, but there's more to explore.”

“First off. My wedding cake was absolutely beautiful. Secondly and most importantly it was delicious! Highly recommend!”

“Had the Schnitzel sandwich with the cucumber salad. Holy hell it was good! Highly recommend visiting this place for the amazing food and warm welcome from the owner. Very friendly and welcoming. The food is 10/10. I will be back while I'm in town. Wish I lived here so I could go more often!”

“Had the Rustico, and it was delicious. If you are expecting a typical takeout pizza, do not order from here. If however, you want a traditional Italian style soft crust pizza wing a Smokey hint to the taste, this is the place!”

“Love the delicious entrees on the menu and the desserts too. Had a great time during trivia night. I was on team True Blood. And the manger and the servers and the people who prepare the meals are fantabulous! 🤩”

“Went to yummy yummy today for lunch with my husband and our girls (4years and 1year). Is is the first time we have taken them into a setting like this. Not only was the food delicious, but the staff was amazing. They were very sweet and kind to my girls. My youngest would start chatting away and I could see all the staff smiling at her. Truly was a great experience. Thank you staff of Yummy Yummy for making this experience great.”

“Amazing coffee, muffins, and sandwiches � � � �”

“We have been to this location many times.
Staff have always been amazing. Any steak meals have had are great. Chicken wings are hit and miss just like anywhere else. I had the steak bites today. Some pieces were good some were chewy. We will be back again.”

“We got the medium unlimited topping pizza for 10$ (app deal), was the best pizza I've had in a very long time. Crust was perfectly crispy. We added a lot of toppings and they didn't skimp out on anything. One medium pizza stacked with toppings was enough to feed 2!! Definetly recommend!”

“It was my first time visiting and purchasing coffee beans. I recently purchased a new coffee machine that makes quite a number of beverages and I need good quality coffee beans. It’s a lovely little place.”

“Booster Juice is one of our family favourites! The funky monkey smoothie is a hit with my kids! Booster Juice serves up the perfect blend of healthy and delicious. It's our go-to spot for a tasty and nutritious option. A must for smoothie enthusiasts.”

“We love Channing’s! We live hours away but have family in town and started grabbing it to go on the way home, and now it’s a tradition! It’s way better than any of the Chinese food we have here in the city! Especially the chicken soo guy with gravy, the lo mein, and the beef fried rice!”

“Elsie’s Diner in Owen Sound is a time machine back to the 1950s, and that nostalgia is half the magic.

From the moment you walk into 104 Shane St, you’re greeted by black-and-white checkerboard flooring, chrome tables, red vinyl booths, and waitresses in retro clothes. The walls are packed with 50’s memorabilia - old records, toy cars, gumby figures, and nostalgic signs. Even the trivia cards at each table keep the era alive. Customers say “you feel like you are stepping back in time” the second you sit down, and “the decor fit the theme of a fifty’s diner and I loved it.”

The food backs up the atmosphere. Elsie’s serves old-fashioned home-style meals made with fresh, local ingredients. The extensive menu covers all the diner classics: burgers with local, never-frozen beef, fish and chips, liver and onions, meatloaf, mac and cheese, grilled cheese with Granny Smith apples, hot roast beef and turkey dinners with homemade gravy, plus milkshakes, floats, malt shakes, and banana splits. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and reviews call the fare “delicious” with “mouth watering items” and desserts that are “super”.

Service matches the vibe - “extremely friendly,” “attentive,” “warm and welcoming,” and quick to fix any issue. Staff know the menu, run hard, and make families feel at home.

With 4.1 stars from 275 reviews, Elsie’s nails the 50’s experience: great food, great service, and a nostalgia trip you can taste.”

“I tried ice cream ,burger and fries from this location. It was very tasty and moreover place is very clean and staff is very help full. must recommended”

“So I do really love this place to come and eat at. The last time I was here which was about a little over a week ago we got takeout/ pick up order and I gotta say was disappointed with the quality of my chicken Ceaser wrap. The chicken reminded me of janes brand. Just an off putting taste. I kind of thought it would be the same as what they use in the sandwich that you can buy without the side with it. But I guess not. The roast beef sandwich was great ! Maybe whoever is the cook can switch the chicken to the other one you guys use. :)”

“I had the Anne and Steve's burger with a side of poutine, would recommend that if you are looking for a burger. Piña colada also slaps as well and the Shirley Temples are also pretty good too. with great service accompanying all that I'd say it's worth the stop”

“A simple real deal pub spot for incredible, food, great music playing and great service. Came for the Beer Battered fish and chips, what a treat! Lyndsay was our service . Personable and polite .”

“You will be surprised by how good the food is. Order the Pub Chicken sandwich. Hands down, the best chicken sandwich in town. Staff are always friendly and the owner is a great guy.”

“Delicious Chinese food ❤️ you definitely got to go hear the prices are so amazing 💰🤑 sooooo yummy and sorry I didn't take any pictures we were starving.

We went there today May 28th and the women that were working there basically forgot to give us forks and knives so we had to eat with our fingers that's the only thing that sucked about it while they were talking to their boyfriends and that's why they forgot”

“Great pizza and the service is excellent. They mixed up my pizza order and fixed my complaint right away. I will just be going to little Caesars. Kind and friendly. Plus their pizza is the best in town.”

“From the moment I arrived for lunch today I had a very good experience. The staff was very positive/pleasant and extremely courteous. I've never before had someone perceptive enough to bring a take-out box before I had to ask. I've never before had someone come to the table to let us know that she'd be briefly using a vacuum cleaner because she wanted to remove salt from the carpeting (= respect for us and the facility). I really enjoyed the food as well. Thank you to those I interacted with today, and the organization that creates an atmosphere where they can shine.”

“I love the chicken Shawarma on rice with Greek salad. Seriously always so, so delicious! Large portions too! 😍”

“Shout out to Zamir @ Owen Sound location for fixing me up with delicious spicy chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy 5 mins before 11 pm closing. Many places wouldn’t serve that close to closing- just lock the doors . Many thanks!”

“They are always so kind, super polite to myself and my children 👥 very understanding and inclusive when engaging with my son who has autism, they actually talk to him rather then dismiss him no weird looks or awkward stares 💯
Also washrooms are very clean 🫧”

“Excellent experience when grabbing our coffees and food. Diana was delightful, cheerful and so fun to talk to. The food was made quickly and was fresh. The atmosphere and relationship among the workers was great. 10/10”

“Five stars. First time trying here. Was a little worried when reading some of the reviews….. but I am glad I went with my gut and gave this local place a try We had two of the haddock dinners. Excellent! Fish was nicely cooked. Fries were decent. And the coslaw was really tasty. The fish wasn’t dripping in oil and the batter was crisp. Excellent quality of fish used. !!!!! Definitely will be back another time ! It was very enjoyable. We used skip the dish. My only peeve about here is they do not seal the bag for delivery service. So anyone can go into the bag and tamper with the purchase:( this needs to be better implemented on sealing the bag for delivery I rely on skip the dish a lot and I won’t order again until this is fixed.”

“love it!!! the food is always amazing! thier new doughnuts are amazing!!!! abbie is such a kind person and always brightens my mood when i go in, you will never see her without a smile on her face! will always go back”

“They have always been fast and friendly.”

“Had a late lunch & everything was amazing. ❤️ loved it”

“Pup cup too scary to eat in the car.
Food 5 stars because the matcha frappe is reliable.

GET RID OF THOSE GREEN STRAWS FROM HEY TASTE LIKE MOTOR OIL. Or just stop giving straws and disappearing like I can’t give it back ??????”
