And we like to take family and friends there while we are at the cottage as well. The food is always great! We've never had a complaint about any meal at the 211 and, because we have been there so often, I think we've tried almost everything on their menu. And they also have daily specials that are always good. The service is excellent! They make you feel like family and our entire family, from young grandchildren to those of us in our 70's, love going for lunch or dinner at "our happy place", the 211 Bar and Grill.

Wood Winds has the look of an old school diner, with tasty pies available by the slice in a glass display. They also have excellent cookies and assorted nicknacks for sale. But the meals are the real attraction here. I ordered a Reuben, which I always do when I want to get a lay of the land. It was perfect, with generous stacks of corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss, and buttery crispy marble rye. My wife got the chicken fajita wrap. She normally orders any chicken sandwich plain, but she forgot to ask for no peppers and onions. She loved it, since they sautéed them. Sandwiches and wraps are served with perfectly crispy fries. Not a scrap remained of either meal. The price was reasonable, and the food was ready in less than 10 minutes. We'll definitely plan to visit here again, whether the dogs are with us or not.

A step inside this little diner is like stepping back in time! Thankfully we read the reviews or we…read morewould have missed this little gem!! We were promptly greeted by a pleasant waitress wearing a dress that reminded me of something I'd seen my grandma wear in photos of when she was young. She was the only waitress but was able to handle all the customers efficiently. The menus offers a decent selection of sandwiches, salads, burgers and either breakfast all day or the catch of the week. Since this is a family restaurant there aren't a bunch of cooks in the back. I ordered the hand beer battered cod with a loaded baked potato and my husband ordered a jalapeño cheese burger. We also chose jalapeño poppers as an appetiser at the recommendation of the waitress. We were impressed that the water we received were LARGE glasses full of ice (they seem to be getting smaller these days) and surprisingly we never ran out. The jalapeño poppers were amazing! They were fresh half jalapeños, sliced with seeds removed, filled with fresh cream cheese (probably local) and dipped in the same batter as the fish. They were flash fried, not overly fried, so you could actually taste the peppers!! We both loved them! When our food came, my husband commented that he was impressed with the portion size compared to the prices, which were less than what was on the menu. He loved his burger and hand cut fries. The cod was delicious! I could only eat 1.5 of the large pieces so my husband finished it off! The only part of this experience that wasn't perfect was my baked potato was so large it wasn't cooked all the way through. We took it home where we'll finish cooking it and will eat it for lunch. We took a menu with us. We will be back to try the breakfast and definitely something from the dessert menu which includes pies, cheesecake, ice cream and shakes! They also have a sign that says Free Coffee on Tuesday (with purchase of course). If you find yourself in Onaway, stop in at Ma's!
