Jim and his wife helped hold things together in the town by doing what they do best: feeding people. They were closed for a spell until they could get things under control, then they came back! Reservations are recommended, especially on the weekends and for larger groups. Now that we are retired, we can go during the week, so we went on Wednesday. Service was great, and the food was delicious, and so is the coffee! Jim is a fount of information! We will go back.

Lunch yesterday--my wife n' I visited for the first time--celebrating my birthday. Work colleagues had raved about the good food and service at The Cheshire Cat Pub. Our visit absolutely confirmed their perceptions--wow!!! Based on our experience we'll add an additional x15+++ to their 'rave' sentiments. A dedicated a top notch team effort from reservation, meal and final wrap up! The food, venue, the entire Cheshire Cat Pub Team working in unison made for an outstanding birthday celebration experience! We started our lunch with amber beer on tap, followed by Hot Beef & Yorkie, 2 piece FIsh n' Chips and Sticky Toffee Pudding & tea. To the The Cheshire Cat Pub...your teamwork and dedication to excellance is commendable. Kudos to all of you.

This was an easy 5-stars for me. I enjoyed every aspect of my meal at Redneck Bistro. Located in…read moreCalabogie, Ontario; it's a short jaunt from the lake itself. It was a beautiful, warm day so we decided to dine outdoors on their patio. Early on in the meal, it began to get brighter with the sun beating down on us, so our waitress was kind enough to set up a large umbrella to shield us from the intense sunshine. By the way, we had the best waitress ever here- I believe her name was Carrie. OMG- she was so funny and quickwitted. She did an amazing job waiting on our large party of 7. The menu had many options and pretty much had something for everyone. There were salads, burgers and so many other options. I chose the Mexi Bowl. Okay, this was next-level good! Every component of the bowl was spot on. Everything harmonized so well together. It was Mexican rice, black beans, diced tomatoes, grilled peppers and onions. I opted for the pulled pork and it was finished off with chipotle mayo and sour cream. It was sooo delicious! These were the best grilled onions and peppers. They were delicately diced and the peppers and purple onions were perfectly caramelized. You could not have asked for a more perfect Mexi Bowl. Being from Texas, I was impressed with the fresh ingredients and how it totally gave me Mexican-vibes. Great job! Throughout lunch service all the outdoor table filled up on a Monday, so that totally tell you how busy this place can get- but not surprising. The food here was great and to forgot to mention how delicious my citrus beverage was (I think it was lemonade, pineapple and soda water). Overall, Redneck Bistro was a true delight. Every aspect of my visit exceeded my expectations. Definitely make your way here if you're in the Greater Madawaska area for an excellent meal and experience!

Everything tasted delicious, the Kofte plate of well-seasoned beef, a light and refreshing tomato Shepherds salad. You must try the Manti, doughy meat-filled dumplings smothered in a creamy tangy yogurt, an instant comfort-good classic. The home-made rice pudding was excellent, too. The restaurant is very small and casual (think three tables, and roadside-eatery vibe) and service, while very friendly and accommodating, can be quite slow. So be prepared to spend some time. Parking is also a bit difficult with roadside parking next to a major road.

The attention to quality was apparent in every tasty bite. My lovely bride ordered the honey lime salad. It was a veritable culinary ballet. The dressing danced lightly on the tasty mixed greens and fruit. I had the pleasure of the shrimp and scallop crepes. Perfectly prepared seafood and a mushroom sauce that complimented the dish. It is hard to get good seafood so far away from salt water but the shrimp and scallops were expertly prepared. Not over cooked and so tender and tasty. Service was on point. Timing was spot on. The house red was of above average vintage. The Crème brulet finished our culinary adventure. Can hardly wait to visit Krave on a return trip to the Valley Gerry & Jackie Tampa FLA

The ambiance is warm with an eclectic decor and a healthy dash of history. The staff are delightful and attentive. We enjoyed the Sweet and Spicy Wonton soup as a starter followed by two incredible entrees. The crispy and savoury Korean Fried Chicken was an amazing dish full of flavour and just enough spice to keep your tastebuds excited for the next bite. The second entree was perfectly prepared Pork Schnitzel which was enhanced by an amazing lemon cream sauce. To end things off we ordered the Maple Crème Brûlée, a smooth creamy dessert with a nice maple finish. The Signature Chocolate Supreme Cake was perfectly moist, light and delectable.
