The poutine was good, but we've had just as good at "Melt" in Oakville. On top of that, we were told 10 minutes for our food and we waited 30 minutes. The food was quite good and the novelty of eating at a "You Gotta Eat Here" restaurant is fun but it wasn't spectacular. Maybe if it hadn't been such... More

We go to this restaurant primarily for the delicious Fish and Chips. Their poutine are great also, but it's the fish that keeps us coming back! It's freshly cooked, not greasy, and well seasoned.

I discovered poutine several years ago on a trip to Stratford. I saw it on the menu and asked the waitress what it was and she described it to me. My comment was, "Oh, that sounds AWFUL! I think I'll have some. And so began my love affair with poutine. I have tried it in several places throughout Stratford, but... More

Lots of choices. Fun to make a decision. We Went for burghetta , soprano and Italian poutine. No regrets. Homemade burger, homemade fries and great team in the kitchen. Thanks Sue and your team for a 5 star diner experience

Very dineresque, hamburgers were small but tasty (the Burgschetta was incredible) and the fries were great. Don't expect a life changing experience, just good food. I liked the people there, we sat and talked to them for quite a while. We went after the lunch crowd and it was very nice.

I love choosing a different burger each time I go (which is often), the different flavour combinations are all fabulous. I have yet to have a burger without also getting my favourite poutine, the Cosmopolitan (sweet potatoe fries poutine).

This is a small little restaurant with limited "eat-in" space - but lots of character. In good weather, there are many spots outside to eat at and a nice park across the street. My daughter had the "burgschetta" which she really enjoyed with feta cheese and I had a the "parisienne". They were both fantastic and very filling. Prices were... More

In a town with restaurants charging $30 or more for a single entree, we fed a family of 7 for under $75. The specialty burgers and fries were worth every penny and the friendly banter with the owner made the experience a one of a kind.

Sue, the owner, makes you feel like you are eating in her kitchen. You can watch her and an employee prepare your good while she interacts with the customers.

Boomers has become a steeple in my life ever since my first trip there last year. This place continues to raise the bar for all gourmet and poutineries in the business. Not a single thing I have tried on the menu has been nothing short of perfection. The owners truly come to treat their regulars as close to family as... More
