We had a wonderful countyliscious dinner. Four of us and everything was tasty and generous portions. Attentive and friendly service. One if the least expensive countyliscious offering. Highly recommend.

Found this little cafe after a morning walk. The food looked really good. 2 other tables, sat after us were served before us. We never did get our food after waiting 40 mins. Very disappointed.

We were visiting from out of town and decided to stop in for their Countylicious lunch. It was outstanding!! We had arancini balls, eggplant lasagna, pesto bocconcini and finished the meal off by sharing a piece of tiramisu. We can say enough good things about the fresh ingredients, taste and great service.

We asked for some hot water and when this arrived it was warm water like you would get from a hot tap! We were charged $7.50 for this! Not great if I am being perfectly honest. The breakfast was okay. I wouldn’t visit this cafe if I came back to the area. Sorry but that is my opinion.

Love brunch, love everything about it. So liking the Creekside Cafe was easy, and if you're in Prince Edward county then it would be worth your time to visit.
The menu hits all the basics while trying new things too. There's your assortment of sandwiches, omelets, Benny's and a few surprises depending on the season.
There are a few thing that could be better though, prices are pretty high for basic portions, also service was a little slow and mistakes were made on our order, however, it was very busy so these issues were understandable.
In the end, give the Creekside Café a shot it'll certainly scratch that brunch itch.

Nice place to have a brunch in Wellington ! I’ve ordered the salmon bagel, but it didn’t comes with fries or potatoes or even a salad. It was good tho !
Really great food and grateful the staff took good care of us as my small child has some picky eating proclivities. And really beautiful decor

I tend to agree with the previous review, written before mine, judging based on my own experience dining at this restaurant, and I find the owner's response to the previous post lacking empathy and irresponsibility. I, too, liked the decor and was hoping for a decent or at least memorable dining experience. We also waited a bit to find out that we could get our own seats. We chose to sit outside. I ordered Mushroom Toast, a pretty looking dish, just like the pretty interior, but the food definitely lacked something, followed by an upset stomach on the beach. Won't be choosing to come back here again.

They overcharged us by several dollars by ‘mistake’ for a simple menu item.

Every time we go to PEC, we love to try out new places. A couple saying at our B&B mentioned Creekside Café, as they serve breakfast until 2pm (they added a side note that service was long and the food was "OK"). Since people have different taste and opinions, and we were way past the breakfast rush, we took it with a grain of salt.
The décor was beautiful!!! It's obvious a lot of thought went into the design. The rattan chairs make it seem like you are in a Paris bistro which was so cozy & inviting! The design of a restaurant is just as important as the quality of the food and service, and in this case, that's where the appeal ends.
Upon walking in (around 1pm), we noticed a few empty tables but the place was buzzing. With this many clients, in the early afternoon, it must mean the food is amazing, right?
We were not greeted upon walking in, so I wasn't sure if I should seat myself. Not a good start.....
Food and service were basic. My latte was lukewarm, and, obviously finished by the time food arrived. When I asked the waitress about the food (after a 20 minute wait), she tells me that it's bcuz they have a table of 8. What kind of excuse is that????? Normally, big tables reserve in advance so I assume that the owners/manager should schedule staff accordingly. As well, there was lots of chit-chatting and being idle amongst the staff.
As we contemplated leaving, the food finally arrived. No apologies were offered by the waitress, for the long wait. So, let's discuss The Food...Well, let's say we should have made the decision to leave, after the long wait. The potatoes were super salty with no taste (no spices were added). They were so bland I had to shower them with pepper and even that did not save them so they were left aside to go to waste. How hard is it to add garlic powder, onion powder and paprika to potatoes? I requested eggs, easy over. This was the 1st time I got eggs so undercooked. Luckily, the bacon made up for it.
Overall, it was a new experience but the value for money (qualité-prix) was a massive FAIL. Although I will consider their suites (above), I will definitely not return to this café.
As many others have mentioned, I'm not sure how they got a high Google score. I'm guessing it's because those clients ordered a lot of mimosas and their judgement was clouded by alcohol!
The next day, we ate at a simple family-run resto that was recommended by a local. The décor was aged & very, very basic. However, not only was it better priced but the food and service were TOP NOTCH!
Lesson learned here: take advice from the locals and not tourists!
Loved this place. Super cute and great food!
