Coming home from canoe camping, we travelled the French River and stopped by 827 Catch for fish and…read morechips. We got four freshly caught pickerel, which came in a light batter that was perfectly fried. We also ordered a side of poutine, the most delicious thing I ate after a camping weekend. We waited 10 minutes for our food. The restaurant also sells butter tarts, burgers, fries, fish, and chips. There was only outdoor seating available--two portapotties on site. Lots of parking available.

Yea the poutine here is money. The pogos and burgers are meh but it still easily gets 5 stars…read morebecause of how amazing the poutine is. My girlfriend is from Europe and had never had a real poutine (cheese curds) so I decided to take her here when we were visiting Ontario. She will remember this place as being one of the highlights of our trip and I know she will force me to make the 30 min drive from North Bay the next time we visit haha.

I do wish that there were more seating though, on hot summer days theres not always any extra seating available and i sometimes had to eat in my hot car on a nice extremely hot day.

Doesn't look like much from the road, but the quesadilla was perfectly crisp and tasty and the home made fries done to near perfection. My buddy had the fish & chips which he liked.

We came during the lunch hour and the service was quick and efficient. The only thing I would note is the cost; it was $51 for two meals (no drink), which I think is overpriced.

But this year, we got up there around lunchtime, and decided to try the famous chip wagon. We always buy our bait during the week at the bait shop, so decided to try Sammy's (there is another chip wagon right across the road). I got the pickerel, and my son the haddock. Both were very good, served on hoagie rolls, as opposed to buns. But the star of the show is the chips (or fries, for us Americans). Hand cut fries, cut fresh, and cooked to perfection. Awesome! I'd have to say it's a bit pricey, but it was very good.

We boated in from our cottage on trout lake for dinner and had a lovely time on their covered patio. Finding the unreserved boat slips for restaurant customers was a bit of a challenge so they could benefit from some extra signage to make it a little more clear. I will say the menu prices were a bit shocking for us considering we're from Ottawa and pretty regularly eat out at fine dining places. But maybe these are the northern prices? Overall though, the food was excellent and you can tell they put care into each dish, everything tasted fresh and flavourful. We only got appetizers because I couldn't bring myself to spend 27$ on a burger that sounded pretty standard. But maybe I'm just cheap lol We will go back for sure- especially for half price Caesar's on Sunday's!
