I appreciate the consistency of this kitchen. The menu prices are exceedingly reasonable and the quality is superb! Tender meats cooked order, flavourful salads and decadent desserts. I've eaten here for years and highly recommend this kitchen. You choose from tasty and varied menu. I always enjoy the steak, Caesar salad and beautifully spiced carrot cake. I don't think anyone could be disappointed with a meal served up here! BYOB is allowed with corkage fee. read more

Edward's Bistro - Lovely entryway. Clean and a very intimate setting. - Bistros Near Me - Cornwall, Ontario

What a delight it was to find this family-run place, that is eccentric and very individualistic while still catering to what I'd call a baseline of cuisine options. One gets the sense the proprietors just decided on a limited menu of things they liked to cook, a little something for everyone, and have just stuck to that and done everything very, very well. The variety, for example, runs from regional standards like poutine (deliciously done with what appeared to be scratch-made gravy and unusually good cheese curds), PEI mussels, and smoked meat (on brioche!) to some Filipino classics (Adobo! Pansit!) to recipes straight out of Julia Child (salmon with hollandaise, eggs benedict, chicken cordon bleu) to a delicious house special of the only-found-in-Cornwall Cornwall pizza (Edward's, well-recommended) to some nouvelle (a lovely beet salad, a brilliant quinoa paella breakfast melange) to a good old fashioned club sandwich (a dying art). I was particularly taken with the soup of the day -- a tomato basil that sounds plain, but which had the most delicious combination of savory and slightly piquant spicing that was quite unexpected and very welcome. Really unusual. And I take it well that the other chef's special soup was out -- positive proof it's made in small batches fresh. Everything was very tasty, hot out of the kitchen, and fresh. All this with friendly service (well handled in the front of a house by a single server -- we think one of the owners, with a kitchen assistant bringing some things out) and unbelievably good prices (low double digits C$ on everything, which made it very affordable in US$). The decor is a little odd, and the place is a shotgun with only a front window (have they moved? the place looks nothing like previous photos posted here in Yelp), but the vibes and food more than make up for the somewhat strange ambiance. The diners were a mixed crowd as well, and it's always nice to see a place that attracts people on lunch break from their business and students and layabout tourists such as ourselves all in one delicious mix. read more

I have always had a great meal there. Delicious choices. Friendly service. A real gem in Cornwall.

We stopped here on our way back to Montreal and we were pleasantly surprised. We were looking for a place to have brunch and decided to give it a try. I ordered the arugula and Brie Benedict, which was absolutely delicious. And for the amount of food on my plate, remarkably inexpensive. Service was pleasant and fast! Would come back in a heartbeat! read more

Omg, this place is amazing! My husband and I had lunch here and we absolutely loved it! The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Service was very welcoming and friendly, and the bistro is so cute! I had the salmon filet ($14) and my husband had the 10 oz ribeye steak ($19). The salmon filet came with vegetables, which were green beans, carrots and beets, and was atop a bed of white and wild rice, and covered in Hollandaise sauce. Where do I even begin? The Hollandaise sauce was buttery and citrusy, and I usually complain about too much sauce at restaurants, but I loved the sauce here, and it was just the right amount. The rice was fluffy and delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the veggies were a nice al dente. This dish was so good! My husband loved his steak. He ordered it medium rare and it was cooked just to his liking. He liked it so much that he didn't even offer me any, lol. His dish came with the same vegetables as mine, and also roasted potatoes. We were served by the owners themselves (a husband and wife duo). We chatted with them a bit and they seem like such genuinely nice people. They had a restaurant in Gatineau (Quebec) for 5 years, but then moved to Cornwall where they have been running Edward's Bistro for almost a year. We did not know about their restaurant in Gatineau and I regret not eating there when they were just across the river (we live in Ottawa). Now we have to drive over an hour to get to Cornwall if we want to eat there. Cornwall is very lucky to have them. If they were in Ottawa, we would be eating there every week! They make everything from scratch, and use local ingredients, yet keep their prices affordable, which makes me a huge fan. I highly recommend Edward's Bistro! What a gem! read more

Wow! Seafood Monterosa Pasta..so very very good. We were visiting Cornwall and our friends suggested Edward's Bistro for dinner. My wife and I chose the seafood dish. I hadn't had anything that good in a restaurant for a long time. Large shrimp, succulent scallops and salmon in a rosee sauce served on a bed of "homemade" linguine. The service was superb and Rosie the owner went out of her way to ensure we got our car parked in their parking lot to avoid parking charges in the City lot. Cannot comment on the wines since I was driving and not drinking. If in Cornwall and you like top food this is definitely the place to go.m read more

Everything about this place is great! It's very nice and comfortable inside. The service is great, the food is delicious and their prices can't be beat. Everything is fresh and made from scratch, including their ketchup. You really get the impression they care about every little detail - even their salt shakers aren't filled with regular salt. They use Himalayan pink salt. My husband ordered a seafood omelette and It was a very generous size and included five colossal shrimp which we found to be very generous. Talk about bang for your buck! I had their adobo chicken sandwich that was delicious and their accompanying hand cut french fries were superb. If I lived in the area I would definitely be a frequent flyer. read more

Love this place. Love all the fresh ingredients. Everything homemade from ketchup to roasting their own coffee beans. Best eggs Benedict! Best hamburger and pest pizza! read more

Edward's Bistro - Hamburger with freshly ground meat ( ground in house), freshly cut potatoes. Even the ketchup is homemade. A must try. - Bistros Near Me - Cornwall, Ontario

This is now my favourite place in town for brunch or supper! The service is warm and friendly, the menu has a wide assortment of foods to choose from and at a nice price too! I had carbonara over spaghetti for supper with chocolate mousse as desert. The following day I returned for brunch and got eggs benedict on a croissant with bacon and home fries. They even have home made ketchup and jam! The food came faster than expected, was served hot, and was absolutely delicious! I would 10/10 recomend this place to anyone who wants an amazing meal for a reasonable price! read more

Went for Saturday Brunch, had the Candied bacon omelette and my wife had the Eggs Benny. We we're not disappointed, the food was excellent and the owners are very friendly. Overall a very nice atmosphere and very relaxing experience. Definitely recommend this place. read more

I've only had coffee n sweets here. They were quite alright to very good. ( High praise from an X montrealer). Pizza for 1 thin crust, very good. Not the famous Cornwall gut plaster. Sems busy n from the buzz we overheard, mostly return customers. Conveniently next to the library. read more

Delicious breakfast. Everything homemade; the sausages, the bread, the jam and the ketchup....wow. Reasonable prices too. Highly recommend.

The only bad review I have about this restaurant is that it's not open 24/7, excellent food, service and they treat the customers like people and not someone just sitting at a table.Don't expect your food to be served super fast as this restaurant cooks everything from scratch and nothing is pre-prepared and kept warm until someone orders it. Every meal they make is for the people who just ordered it, so you know it's fresh and done just to your individual liking. I personally give it Five Stars as I have eaten in other Five Star restaurants which didn't live up to their reputation. I had the Prime Rib last time I was there and I give it a 10 out of 10. BTW I'm a very fussy eater. read more

We wanted to support a small local restaurant to take out a gourmet meal to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We ordered the special for May 30 which was an 8 oz filet mignon with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, veggies, salad and dessert. It was amazing! The steak melts in your mouth - so tender and cooked to perfection. The price was extremely reasonable for what we got. I honestly have never had a steak dinner as a take out meal and was a little skeptical but the entire meal was to die for. We will definitely be ordering from Edward's again. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed. The owners were super friendly when I went in to pick it up. Thumbs up to Edward's Bistro! We look forward to this pandemic ending soon to sit down inside the bistro and enjoy another fabulous meal with these wonderful people! read more

I am a frequent diner at Edwards Bistro. This is the absolutely best restaurant in Cornwall for Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner. I've gotten to know both Jason and Rosie, the owners, and they are the best. I'm hooked on their Eggs Benedict with Jason's candied bacon or with steak. His hollandise sauce is to die for. Everything is made from scratch and you can taste it. I'm a coffee drinker and their coffee "taste like coffee", not watered down Maxwell House. And they have the best cappuccino around. Highly recommend this place. read more

Edward's Bistro - Yesterday's lunch. Eggs benny with steak. - Bistros Near Me - Cornwall, Ontario

I had the best breakfast ever. I ordered the 3-Egg Omelette Creole, with Avocado & Shrimp. I have never had an omelette so light and fluffy. The plate was so full, lots of large shrimp and avocado. Amazing flavor! The only downfall was that it is self serve coffee. Not being a waitress, it was a little tricky navigating through the customers with their chairs pulled out. The only other negative would be the washroom. Instead of hand soap in a dispenser, they had a bar of soap. To me using a bar of soap that everyone else has used is not sanitary. read more

Called to inquire about pick up. The man who said he was the owner just yelled complete nonsense on the phone. Very confusing. Asked if they were open and he yelled at me saying the earliest I could order was Tuesday. Really strange exchange. Won't order from there hard to support a business whose owner is so rude. read more

Love this place! Have only been for breakfast but every single time it's amazing! The breakfast steak is my fave! Banana foster is delicious if you want a sweeter option. You must try the ketchup - it's homemade and like nothing else I've tried. read more

Excellent coffee, fantastic food, very fresh!!! I had the eggs Benedict. The candied bacon was incredible. I cant wait to comeback!!
