Loved the elevated flavors! We arrived at the beginning of lunch and by the time we wrapped up,…read morethis place was packed! Upon driving up to The Granite, you can see it's located right on the river with a deck facing it, and it looks to be an older converted house. We were all digging the 70's/ 80's era rock tunes throughout our meal and helped give the experience a nostalgic ambience. I ordered a unique mocktail with a hosemade raspberry and basil syrup- it was so good and different than anything I'd tasted before. For my entree, I had the Ginger Sesame Pasta. WOW! This was such a delicious dish! Everything about it was delicious. The peppers and onions were grilled to perfection, and the chicken was tender and juicy having just been fried on a golden batter. All this layered onto some Cantonese Style Noodles- it was the dish I didn't know I needed! Our meal at The Granite was hearty and delicious! It kept us going for the long drive back to Toronto. Next time I'm in Bancroft, I'll definitely be back to have this dish and drink again. They were so good!

Great food, great service, good atmosphere. Good burgers, and an absolutely amazing (but rather…read moresloppy) beef sandwich, served au jus. Sides too were exceptional, both salads and fries. Only the coffee was merely okay - but they were most generous with the refills. Highly recommended.

The food was GREAT!! The soup of the day was potato bacon. Homemade. Came with garlic bread, also fresh made bread. Got the hamburger to share!! Again great!! Would have liked French fries instead of the home fries. The reviews giving 1-2 stars are NOT ACCURATE. It's an older building could use a few upgrades and fix ups, but overall a very good experience.

Not too many options available around here but we were camping a few minutes down the road and had…read moreno plans to try cooking a meal by fire (and mosquitoes). It's a large place inside but the tables were set up a bit oddly. It wasn't the most efficient use of space, but maybe that's good because the kitchen could hardly keep up with the few tables that were here. Let me start by saying though that the people who work here are really nice. Very friendly! It took about 25 minutes for anyone to come take our order and it was another about 35 minutes to get our first appetizer.. I ordered a salad. So I was a bit frustrated with the wait. The salad was heavily dressed but at that point we were so hungry I don't think we cared much. It took some time before we saw our mains. I think we were there for just over an hour before one of our main dishes came out. I was a little annoyed that they didn't apologize or even check in on us. I will say too, don't expect anything spectacular in terms of the food. You're at a motel style diner in the middle of no where. My partners pasta was completely over cooked to mush and sadly my burger was burned... We really didn't want to send it back and end up waiting another hour though so we just ate what we could. I didn't expect much going in, and I wasn't much disappointed. But the people seemed really really nice.

Was looking forward to having a big piece of Halibut but was informed that the pieces were small and very expensive. As such I tried the Haddock but was quite disappointed in the portion size, mostly all batter. Also tried the clam strips which were dismal, pre made out of a bag and such a small portion. Fries were ok, nothing special and the coleslaw wasn't too my taste as well, very finely grated and such a small portion. So not a very good value, $17.00 for the Haddock and $12.00 for the clam strips. Probably the best option locally, but doesn't compare to many other fish and chip places around.
