It wasn't clean and lacked the awesome vibe it had for all those years. A real shame - a Grand Bend institution gone to crap. A local told us that they only show up occasionally and that they see many people walk away unsatisfied. They told us to try Rob's in Ipperwash, which we did...the perch at Robs was cooked to perfection and crowds of people there loved it as much as we did - we'll be going there from now.

We swapped ranch dressing for the standard sour cream on the side, though we kept the salsa. I got chicken on mine and my wife got a side of guacamole. And they were excellent! All the veggies were fresh, my chicken was tender, and my wife liked her guac. The fried tortilla bowl wasn't greasy in the least (it was obviously a fresh-fried flour tortilla, not a prefab corn chip-ish one). I think better than half the orders we saw passing by us were fish and chips, which looked wonderful. My wife opined that it looks like this place knows how to do fried foods. Nice beer selection with several good Ontario brews on tap. We ordered a hazy IPA and enjoyed it. Service was attentive and personable. We definitely want to return to Grand Bend--and Paddington's.

Out of the Blue was the perfect place to go! They even have a family deal with a variety of fried fish and a ton of fries. Service was friendly and efficient. Our meal wasn't quite ready when I arrived for pickup, so they offered to bring it out to my car (probably to avoid congestion in the storefront with COVID restrictions, but still a nice touch). The food was fresh and delicious. We would not hesitate to return if we are in the area again!

While at the VW van event in the area, formerly knows as Bayfield Volkfest, and now in Goderich,…read moreand enjoying the summer like weather at the end of September in 2025, we ventured out for a restaurant meal and found this gem at the local gold course called The Maitland. I was craving a schnitzel and they delivered. Friendly service from the staff there as they were just opening at noon that Friday and we were asked kindly to wait a bit before they opened. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal while seated at the corner table with windows looking out two different directions over the golf course. That itself, was a fantastic feature of dining her. Parking was plentiful, and the drive was fun going under the little arched train bridge. Worth seeking out in the area.

Is the atmosphere modern and high end....no... were we comfortable and had a great view... absolutely... A very cool menu cover opens up to a diverse selection of options to satisfy the whole family with some Eastern/central European favourites that caught my attention....My wife and son went with the seared salmon where I opted for the classic schnitzel....We were all completely satisfied with our meals from the salmon which was buttery, cooked to perfection (that a lot of places screw up) to my extra crispy full of flavour schnitzel on a bed of crispy yet soft spätzle...washed down with a cold Czech Pilsner and a classic gin martini... I was in a very happy place!! But that didn't stop my son from ordering the decadent River fritter... or I think we accidentally called it the River tail... no idea why... but it was delicious!! Looking forward to exploring the menu further on our next visit to Godrich!! Thank you!! Zeke

He looked a lot fancier than I expected, but still comfortable to come here for lunch. There was one server and quite a few tables, which I think posed the initial challenge. There were three of us and we each ordered something different. One colleague what are the tacos another a butter, chicken sandwich and I ordered the chicken tikka flatbread. After about 45 minutes of waiting, our food arrived, and it was absolutely delicious. I don't think I've ever had anything like that before and I'm sad that I am not local and may never have it again. Everyone was pleased with their meals. We had to ask for the check as soon as the food arrived and sadly couldn't afford any more time to savor it as much as we all wanted to.

As for the food... here's where the stars go down. We tried the buffalo chicken poutine and the butter chicken poutine- both were okay at best. Buffalo chicken poutine had sparse toppings and a mild flavor profile. The butter chicken poutine was much more saucy- but at the expensive of flavor. The curry tasted more like american chili than any butter chicken I've ever tasted. Maybe stick with more simple items at this establishment.
