He adored smearing flavoured butter onto warm bread! My scrumptious entree was baked fish with morel mushroom, fiddleheads, mash potatoes, cream corn and grilled vegetables. The flavour of the fish was enhanced by the earthiness of the morel mushrooms and fiddleheads. It was a celebration of spring! My companions and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. It was the highlight of our weekend at the cottage!

I've been to TFC a number of times for both a-la-carte dinners, Sunday family dinners and, most recently, brunch. Well worth the drive or a definite stop-in if you're in Beaver Valley looking for one of the best restaurants in the area. The kitchen staff are flawless and professional - great ingredients, prepared well with care with just enough uniqueness to make a difference and done consistently. The space is lovely - just the right size to be intimate and filled with fun things (check out the bathrooms). Equally comfortable serving families, or that special date night. Portions are generous (my only knock is they need some kids sizes. My kids were a bit overwhelmed by portion). The menu strays towards comfort food, which is great. Lovely roast chicken, family style veggies, ribs, etc. Service is solid - pleasant, attentive but not particularly notable. Will keep coming back.

This is a comfort food establishment with a large menu and fresh baked pies. Opted for the roast beef dinner subbing out the mashed potatoes for a green salad. While the presentation was perhaps not perfect, the taste was great as well as the portion size. I enjoyed dipping the warmed roll into the gravy...so good. And the service was excellent. It was a very positive food experience and happy to recommend Kettles if in Owen Sound.

The portions are a good size and we ended up taking leftovers home! The service is fantastic and everyone is super friendly and on top of things. Everyone there was enjoying their food. We overheard someone talking about a dessert they ordered and said it was the best thing they have put in their mouth.... I wish I knew what she had ordered lol. This place is definitely worth a visit!

The disorganization was not entirely her fault. In general, it was not a pleasant experience.

Sure, they were busy, but I wonder how impatient anyone dining in would have been with that wait. We were told 25 minutes on the phone; my wife went 10-15 minutes after that (based on past experience) & still had to wait. Two, the wings I so greatly anticipated were much, much smaller than what I have been used to through the years. Kelsey's has been my go-to for wings as the biggest & best in town. The flavour was as superb as ever, but I wonder if they've gone to a new supplier. I may be open to re-evaluating my wing purchase. Flavours on both our orders were excellent!

Not fall off the bone as they were the year before. Pulled pork - not good at all. Had a vinegar flavour and really disappointed. Brisket - incredible and to die for. Al least one dish was great. Fries and slaw were very good. Burnt ends - for $17 you got 5 pieces swimming in a sea of sauce. 1/2 were flavorful and 1/2 so rock hard and impossible to chew. Overall this is the worst experience we have had with this take out. We get takeout every year once or twice each time we are up in the blue mountain. May need to try a chain like Montana's next time as we were so disappointed this time.
