    Grilled Cheese Brisket Sandwich
    Michelle S.

    OMG! Excellent breakfast and lunch spot in Tobermory! The cheese beef brisket was outstanding ! Sweet smokey bbq beef brisket layered with cheddar cheese in large perfectly toasted sourdough slices! My guys were jealous and they ordered 2 more! When you're out on the water there aren't too many option other than the local Foodland. We also got the dilly tots and fried oreos at 10:30 AM as they close at 3PM! Oh and RJ at the Tobermory boat launch was awesome! Super friendly! Gonna check out Cove Island on his recommendation.

    We went there for breakfast. Food is good. Service is fine. Seating is a few patio tables and chairs. The only thing that bugs me is that it is at a parking lot and it gets really dusty whenever there is a car driving in. It is not ideally to eat at the location. Better off buying takeout to eat elsewhere. Overall, it is nothing compared to anything in GTA and it is not cheap (for a food truck's food). But if you are visiting Tobermory, there aren't really any better choices I suppose.

    Picked up a Toasted Western, Smoked Brisket on Brioche, and a few coffees for breakfast. They are open from 7am to 3pm so it's the perfect spot to grab an early breakfast before exploring Tobermory. The food was really good and service was friendly and quick. They also have a few tables in front of the truck if you want to sit down and eat instead of taking the food for the road.

    Summer 2022 and Hungry Hiker is still the only game in town worth going too. Highlights include exceptionally nice owners and beautiful landscaped spot to eat in and play some corn hole. We ate there several times during our cottage summer- personal faves include the tub muffin & the western for a breakfast meal. Late lunch faves are anything with famous smoked brisket, dilly tots and fried Oreos. (Don't deprive yourself- indulge and just hike a bit further on the trails!!). And hey Tobermory - heads up!! Don't go to Crows Nest for bagged salad and bottled dressing. Or for their frozen pizza!!! Take a stroll down Hwy 6 and get some real food!!

    It's a bit unnoticeable from Hwy 6 but once you try to look for it, it's pretty easy to find with the signs near the road! The owners seem nice and service is standard for a food truck. I saw a review that mentioned the parking lot being dusty when other cars drive in - I can definitely see that as the road is unpaved so maybe eat in your car instead if it's a busy day. Personally we liked the Believer a bit better than the classic toasted western but all the options we tried were good. I can see why locals frequent this place too! Food is pretty good though - we actually went back again on the same day to try the smoked brisket on brioche bun! Only thing to note is that this place closes pretty early - 3pm, so make sure you come for breakfast/lunch!

    Like some others have mentioned, things are over-priced here but I've found this to be the case in…read moremost of the establishments in this area. Looking past the tourist-pricing, the coffee itself is decent here. My cappuccino had a nice dark roast with chocolately notes, a medium body, with foam that was serviceable although could've been tighter. The ice latte was the better drink and had a hint of cinnamon to make things interesting, double shot definitely recommended to give it a stronger coffee flavor though. We also got a breakfast sandwich which had a decent amount of egg, two slices of bacon, and served with a croissant bun which actually tasted good minus the microwaved texture. Overall, this place isn't bad although it isn't great either. They do have a nice dog-friendly patio and the music is not obtrusive so it's really easy to have a conversation here. I'd say look at their menu online and decide if the prices are reasonable to you. Grabbing a quick drink won't be too bad but adding food and snacks will probably quickly add up quickly.

    We went to Tobermory coffee before our cruise to Flower Pot Island. This was one of the few places…read morethat opened up early to cater to early morning customers. The place was packed with long stretched lines. Please be aware of that if you plan on grabbing breakfast here before your excursion for the day. Even with the long line, the food and coffee was awesome. We grabbed to-go coffees, spinach croissants, breakfast croissants and everything was amazing. I wish we had enough time to eat here peacefully but we were already late so had to rush. Overall, a great place for coffee and breakfast.

    Great sweets place if you need a sugar rush but just note the expensive price tag…read more This store is probably the only dedicated store in tobermory for fudge, chocolate and other sugary treats. They have a large variety of fudges and other sweets. Definitely on the pricier end of things but it is the only one in town selling these kind of items. We got the ice cream here. It's very busy during tourist season and have about 3 ppl working just for ice cream to move the line along. The 'single scoop' is actually really big and you can get 2 flavors from it (very confusing since 'single' means one but hey, get to try 2 flavors and it's pretty big!) The flavors were quite good. We got the st Jacobs Apple pie which has chunks of Apple pie in the vanilla ice cream. The Apple and cinnamon flavor really compliments the vanilla ice cream. The chocolate peanut butter was very rich and decadent. The two flavors also complement each other really well. Service was good - pretty quick and efficient. Stop by here for an ice cream - you won't regret it!

    Visited this spot during my time in Tobermory as it was super hot and I was craving ice cream. They…read moreoffer a wide section of sweets and a large variety of ice cream flavours. I got the strawberries & cream (2/5) and the NSA chocolate coffee (4/5). The strawberries & cream was a bit artificial and too sweet for me but still had a creamy texture while the NSA chocolate coffee had a strong flavour. There isn't too much of a difference between the scoop sizes (kids/single) kids is just slightly smaller but you can barely even tell so just go with kids size and save yourself $1. The prices are quite high as it is in a touristy area and 3 cones (2 singles & 1 kid + 3 waffle cones) were about $22. It is also a confusing process to get your cone and proceed to pay as there is no guidelines.

    We were directed to this food truck when we checked into our hotel in Tobermory…read more It was a great find! The fish was fresh, the breading was tasty and the homemade tartar sauce was awesome. The chips were amazing as well. If this was down the road from my home, I'm sure I'd be there every week. Just a note, it is not hard miss. If headed towards Tobermory, it will be on your right shortly before you get to any of the entrances to Bruce Peninsula National Park. If headed from town, you will pass both the Cypress Lake entrances and the one just south of there (don't remember the name). Look for the Lonewolf Drive Thru sign Fish is served from around 11:30 with the last order taken at 7:30.

    I came here based on all the good reviews on Yelp. It's a cute little chip wagon (now a renovated…read moretrailer) We ordered a large fry and a large poutine just as travel food. It took 30 minutes for them to call our number. Granted, they were pretty busy... But 30 minutes for 2 orders of fries is a little crazy. My fries were good (although not 30 minutes good) but could have been a little warmer. The person I was with said their poutine was good. I don't eat meat so this review is based solely on the fries and service. I'd still recommend checking it out for yourself! OH and the address here on Yelp didn't take us to the chip wagon. We had to continue driving until we saw it on the left hand side (leaving tobermory) which was about 7km.
