Restaurants in Stratford

“Great dining experience. We spoke with the chef and he told us how he acquires fresh ingredients from farmers in the area and then determines what will be on the menu for the night. For our September 5 dining experience, several ingredients from his wife’s garden. We enjoyed their beautiful roasted cherry tomatoes with ricotta. Also loved the scallops. Highly recommend Elizabeth.”

“We got married at Mercer Hall in the event room and they were SO friendly and SO accommodating, especially with two littles in the group. The food, service, drinks and atmosphere was wonderful and Mercer truly went above and beyond for our little celebration! Cannot recommend them enough, they went above and beyond for us.”

“As said before the french onion soup is fantastic and I'm pretty fussy, little more croutons and a little less onion would work well.
We were guests last Friday around 6:30 and really impressed with food though pricy and service was great, not hovering but attentive. Probably the only downfall was entitled people that needed to shout, inside voices folks it's not all about you.
Loved the free parking, about 5 bucks per car and there were three.”

“Such a welcoming experience. Stumbled across this establishment by chance for the first time today and will most certainly be back. Impeccable service from the bartender, I believe her name was Kristie. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This restaurant is unquestionably one of the coolest place to eat in the neighborhood. Anytime I come there I am profoundly glad. They preserve their very high standard service and the topmost level of meals they serve. You are always happy with this restaurant. Highly recommended.”

“Food was delicious. Service was good, however slow. The kitchen seemed to have a difficulty maintaining the pace that Crabby Joe's normally upholds, despite the fact they have a private group.”

“Love the bubble tea and beef noodle stir fry! So delicious and fresh.”

“One of my favourite restaurants in Ontario!!!”

“Amazing staff! Great quality food.”

“A special afternoon spent at Revival House. A really wonderful gentlemen, made us feel so welcome and you could tell how proud he was of the restaurant and its history. He made our day and encouraged our full enjoyment of this unique venue. As a minister I loved seeing how the beautiful building was so creatively repurposed, honouring its original design. Unfortunately, I didn’t ask his name, but what a wonderful ambassador for this business. From reading other reviews, I wonder if it was Chris? We had a lovely server as well. But I had wished we had left a tip for this super fellow as well.”

“Amazing experience! Fast service and amazing food!🥰”

“Pinos’ Pizza in Stratford is truly a gem! As a family-owned and operated institution for over 30 years, they have consistently delivered amazing food and exceptional service. Eddie still makes the dough from scratch, and you can taste the quality in every bite, as they use the highest quality ingredients and delicious toppings.

I recently had the pleasure of trying their new Neapolitan Margherita Pizza, and it’s the best pizza I’ve ever had! While it’s not your traditional Italian Neapolitan, the flavours are phenomenal. The whole tomato slice and the red onion accent on top elevate the taste to a whole new level. Pinos is also a fantastic spot to enjoy a Stella pint and a slice,

A big shout-out to Megan, Maitri, Ajay, Rahul, Logan, Eddie, and the entire Pinos staff for their hard work and dedication. Highly recommend!”

“The hubby and I had a date night here on Sunday and were very impressed. The food was delicious, and the service was fast and efficient. We had Lisa as our server and she was the best server we've had in a long time she went above and beyond for us!! 5 stars! we will definitely be back soon!”

“Best fish and chips in all of Stratford. The value, the portions, the flavour! They are handmade!!! Their other items are equally as delicious as well. You cannot miss with this place!

Kid-friendliness: They always make sure my kids leave with a lolly and candy!”

“Food was freshly prepared and delicious! Staff was friendly and accommodating! Would eat there again!”

“A unique and varied curation of quality spirits and mixables, creatively and expertly prepared and presented with flair. Their premium cocktail prices are better than most Toronto hotel standard cocktails and everything here has a sense of eccentric class. I even plan to have a cocktail there again on my birthday! Cheers!”

“Amazing place. Went for karaoke on a Tuesday. Charcuterie was unreal and fit to our needs (dairy free), and the fancy drink was so yummy. I wish I lived close because it would be a regular spot.”

“Love the atmosphere here - one of my favourite places in Stratford. Thanks, Jonny!”

“Friendly delicious affordable”

“Discovered Crawing wings last year and couldn't be more greatful for their excellent service, quality and taste. No better wings to be found in Stratford.”

“I’ve been coming to Tahini’s for a while now, and I’ve noticed how much they’ve improved lately — everything from the service to the food quality has leveled up. You can really tell the people running this place care about the customer experience.”

“Small, cozy space with delicious food and
friendly service! They were very accommodating and patient with our group of 10 that dined in. The Ninja Star bowl was delicious and very filling- loved the crispy tempura shrimp and smoked salmon paired with the ninja sauce!”

“Absolutely fantastic gelato!! 🍧 Every flavour I’ve tried has been amazing!”

“This is hands down, the best in town. Their sourdoughs are absolutely amazing. Try them all! Their galettes are fantastic and they are sure to use fruits that are in season, so you get great variety throughout the year. The focaccia breads are always so delicious as well as their baguette.

Their price points are great and they aren't price gouging like most of the other bakeries in town. Go and support this gem.”

“Excellent service. We recently bought a new house out in Sebringville and Jamie came out to help us out. Excellent service! Their water is the best around the area!”

“I had Features Barbecue cater a small event I hosted recently approx 30 people. The food was absolutely outstanding and a huge hit with my guests! Chris did a great job meeting my needs and budget! I would absolutely recommend for parties or business functions! Thanks Features! 10/10!!!”

“A nice, contemporary café in the heart of Stratford, with pleasant interior and menu options. Seating is a bit limited, however.

I like that they have good quality ingredients. A good selection of plant-based / vegan food options as well as natural sweeteners for drinks.

I tried their flat white, which was smooth. Their vegan chocolate brownie and chocolate chip sea salt cookie were delicious and not too sweet.

Overall, a good experience and worth a visit!”

“First time in Stratford and many people recommended Revel. Glad I listened! it was a cozy cafe and clearly popular with the locals.

The server was friendly and I really enjoyed our brief conversation.

I ended up ordering a cappuccino and the doughnut of the day. The coffee wasn't bad not the best I've had but definitely one of the better ones. The doughnut was the real star which was a lemon poppyseed glaze. The dough was soft and the glaze added a nice touch of tart and sweetness without it being overwhelming.

I made the mistake of only buying one, when I went back to get more it was sold out. So if you see it in stock make sure to get 2”

“Nice friendly staff at this location, clean dining area, washrooms clean and tidy, excellent service. We even had delivery to our table. BarBURRITO is always delicious.”

“Once I discovered Vinni’s, it has been my go to pizza. It is cook to perfection and is always a consistent pizza. Nothing changes every time you go back. Owner is a sweet women and very easy to talk too. I highly suggest ppl get the pizza from here and help out a smaller local pizza place. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Great service and amazing buttertarts”

“Exceptional cuisine. Family owned. Amber, our server was awesome! A must try.😋”

“Demetre’s restaurant is my favourite, the food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is relax and cozy ! Thank you Leah and Demetre ❤️”

“With Little Caesars, you're not getting an artisan-made pizza. However, I had to wait for a hot and ready b/c the guy just before me bought the lot. When I pizza was ready, the manager ran them and my crazy bread out to my car for me because it was windy and rainy. I really appreciated that and it turn my day around. Thanks for knocking the customer experience out of the park that day, Little Caesars.”

“I love our Pita Pit!!! The staff are so nice... they have great customer service. It’s a good healthy choice.”

“Great coffee, great people, and a great atmosphere.”

“Nice vibe. Great latte and scone.”

“Harvey's is a fast food chain. For fast food, the food was delicious. I had a well made fast food burger with fresh toppings and very tasty fries. What really stands out about this particular location in Stratford is that the main dining area and restroom were both very clean, but even more impressive is the kindness and attentiveness of the staff. Your staff at this location was really great and made us feel quite welcome. Thanks for having us. We'll be back because of your workers.”

“From the moment I had my first Raspberry muffin from the honey tree I was obsessed. Christine has perfected her pastries! My favourites are the apricot scones, raspberry muffins, and carrot walnut muffins! A must visit for any trip to Stratford!”

“Absolutely fabulous lunch. Food was fresh and tasty. Have to try everything on the menu”

“I stopped in later in the day last Friday from London and grabbed the last loaf of sourdough and it was SO delicious. Lovely staff and great atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back and try some of the other breads and treats.”

“The next stop on my unofficial brewery tour is Black Swan Brewing Co. Almost skipped this stop because of the weather but I’m glad I didn’t because this spot is a can’t miss. Grab yourself a flight of local cold ones sit back and relax on the dog friendly patio. I personally recommend the Wild Child Sour but honestly you can’t go wrong.”

“A nice enjoyable outdoor pub with with a good selection of beers on tap and a food truck on site
Friendly service and tasty bites
What more could you ask for”

“I love that I can customize my bowl - and they are always so kind and patient while I make my choices! They are so friendly and helpful - and they always make sure you have everything you need. The atmosphere is very welcoming - and you can grab water at your leisure with their complimentary water station. They also have wifi so I've had work lunch dates there before! Lots of seating is available, and the windows along the one side of the building provide lots of natural light! You can also sit outside if you prefer. The staff are always friendly and prompt. And, you can order ahead online - bonus!!”

“Great Haddock fish and chips! Big portions! I’m more than sufficiently sephonsified!!! I’ll be back!!!”

“Absolutely excellent. we had the foot long (ok, it's 9 inches, but that's plenty), with onion rings for me and fries for my hubby. Absolutely the best onion rings I've had in years...not preformed or even baked...the real thing. the hotdog was perfectly cooked and the bun was lovely and fresh. I was going to give it 9/10, but wondered what could be improved, so 10/10 it is! A real summertime treat!”

“Must visit place for cheesy, crispy and tasty pizza..friendly staff,quick service..one bite told me that this is the pizza i wanted.. i will keep coming here again and again…”

“A number of people from yoga recommended I check out this place on my way out of the city, and man…. I’m so glad I did! It’s kind of a hole in the wall spot in an industrial area, with an atmosphere best described as a mix of industrial, yet warm, eclectic, cozy and welcoming. The “Kona coffee” sign on the door hooked me, but the actual selection once inside really sold me! The minute you walk in the doors you get the feeling that the owners love their coffee, and it really shines through. This place is no joke. The selection is amazing, with a little bit of something for everyone. The gentleman I spoke to today was so knowledgeable, and really just the loveliest human. His love for his product really shined, and made me excited for everything there! I ended up with a bag of whole beans, and on my way out grabbed a small coffee with oat milk…. It was to die for! What a wonderful pick me up for my long drive home ❤️ I think I’ve found my new “quick cup of coffee” for my post-yoga drive home, and I can’t wait for the next cup!”

“I contacted Black Angus about catering for a small party (5 of us) for a surprise wedding anniversary for my mom. Not only were they extremely easy / flexible when creating a dinner menu / responding to emails, they were punctual with delivery & pick up, had all supplies required, and the food was DELICIOUS! My Father recently passed away & this was my moms first anniversary without him. You and your team helped make it extra special. Will definitely order again.. Cheers!”

“Great beers and some awesome pizza and hot soft pretzels. Staff was great.”

“A mom and pop shop inside a convenience store. Some rolls are ready made for pickup. There are chairs and tables to sit and eat inside. The food is well made and tasty.

We came in here for a quick bite and are very pleased with the food and service.”

“Great food! Amazing service and wonderful suggestions.”

“Sweet Treats at Home Sweet Home!
I recently tried Home Sweet Home Ice Cream, and it was a delight! The ice cream had a *good taste*, with flavors that were rich and creamy. Perfect for hot days or anytime you need a sweet treat.

!”

“I don't know who made my sub today, but I must deeply thank you!!
OVER AND BEYOND!!
I asked for as many pickles as they could give me, and MMMMMMM they made me so happy!
Service 10/5.
Thank you again!”

“We always buy pizza from here! The pizza is always great, they are on time, and the price fits our budget. Thanks to all of you, from all of us at McCarthy Place. Our staff love Pizza Day!”

“Our family visited this lovely cafe this week. The coffee and snacks were delicious. The cat room was cozy and very clean. The hosts were very friendly. Would highly recommend and will be back”

“First time to the McPhillips Street location. Great food, excellent service. Large portions and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend.”

“Great customer service as we called for a pick up 20 minutes before they closed and they called back to let us know the order was ready for pick up a couple minutes after closing time They stayed open for us. Greatly appreciated. Thanks for the awesome service. It's was a pleasure doing business with you.”

“Not Even reading the others reviews... Love this Pizza Hut. Went inside this summer. Place is IMMACULATE. Super busy but always friendly. Kinda sad corporate can't provide cooler temps for the three overworked hustling employees that I saw... Pizzas always good. NOT chintzy with toppings... PLEASE BRING BACK GREEK SALAD 🥗!!!”

“I’m from out of town (big city) and I haven’t ever had pizza with meat balls in them, and the cup pepperoni is also seldom seen, so when I saw New Orleans had these ingredients I just had to try. The pizza was great, we ordered for a late night meal and we snarfed it all down fairly quickly. The wings were great too. Meaty, nicely fried, and plenty of sauce on the side even for a small order. The pizza crusts were small and crispy making them great to eat, my kids usually throw away the crusts but not this time.”

“Glad they were open late, prices like everywhere else are not in tune with the economy, food was okay, employee very courteous and still had a smile despite the late hour..”

“Amazing staff and the treats are always delicious :)”

“My mom and I love your Chinese food . The chicken balls are the best. The box is overflowing with chicken balls. The mushroom fried rice is awesome. Love the mushrooms and vegetables in it. Courteous staff.”

“Every time we visit this Popeyes it's always a fresh chicken we can smell. The restaurant management must be great as the entire restaurant always seems super clean and shiny. We always been treated with respect and our food always comes fresh crispy and tasty. Staff is very polite at this store and always ask us "how was your experience". Stratford best food location to try wings specially the honey bbq and garlic Parmesan. Keep it up popeyes.”

“Always getting a beyond burger and sweet potato fries. Delicious!! Sad to see they don't sell root beer floats anymore though? The staff are very friendly, helpful, and fast too!! Will definitely be going again!

Vegetarian options: Beyond burger is delicious!! Always a favourite!”
