    We arranged to have my mother-in-law's 80th birthday party at the diner. She prefers more casual places to go to and True North Diner was perfect. We arrived at True North Diner and there was seating reserved just for our party. The staff took the cake we had brought and said they would take care of it for us. The place makes you feel like you have gone back in time with its authentic vintage jukebox and classic cake display case filled with pies. I got the cheeseburger with the sweet potato fries which were amazing! A thicker cut fry can sometimes be less crisp but these were perfect and tasted delicious. The burger was moist and flavourful. Perfect diner food. Of course I also had to have a chocolate milkshake! Talk about classic. I prefer my shakes to be thicker but this one was very good and came with the metallic canister with additional shake. What a treat! True North Diner was a comfortable hang-out spot with casual food and seriously, the most patient staff in the whole world. They let us just wander and talk to everyone and gave us all time to catch up and say happy birthday to the birthday girl who had the greatest time. My only complaint? The floors were not very clean. Not just ours but around the restaurant which is a shame because I would have given it a perfect score had there been more attention taken to keeping the floors food-free. The fabulous service by our sweet and thoughtful waitress more than made up for it. We had a great party and the birthday girl was very happy. Thank you True North Diner!

    Reminds me of Frank's in Fredericton but a bit larger. Reasonable selection including breakfast buffet which actually looked good. 50's decor with background music, you had a mix of booths, mini booths & tables. Depending on where you sit, it seem tight fitting, but it's not. The menu had a pretty nice selection of mom & pop comfort food, which came to us on a busy Sunday @ 12:30 crowd. Tip: beat the church crowds on Sunday, get in here between the services. 3 burgers, some with onion rings and fish & chips with 4 pops came out to ~56$. Quick service, will keep this place in mind for special occasions.

    It is almost like a flash back from Happy Days or that is at least what they want you to think. What a fun place to go for a night out. I was told that this was had a great shake so you know I had to go try one. i took the BF out for supper here after we took a walk in the park that is actually right behind the diner and you can actually walk for about 1- 2 hours anyway back to the Diner. Set back in the 50's in the ara of the poodle skirts and tight white shits for the boys not that you are going to see that extreme here but close. Great old booth and walls covered with memorabilia. I had to get the cheeseburger and fries with a chocolate shake and he got the same. WOW delicious the burger was actually a real one and was a good size. The fries were fresh and crispy and the shake homemade and thick. Good meal and filling thank god we went for the walk. With tip and all is was around $26. Time to go parking .

    This fixture of Blue Acres has been around for longer than I've been present on this plane of…read moreexistence, so it's with deep shame that I admit that it was only this spring that I tried it for the first time. While looking for a quick lunch on a sunny Saturday, I was right behind a few other people who just got their food as I was ordering, putting me at the front of the queue. Owner and sole staff member Donna guided me through the highlights of her menu and I settled on the hamburger platter. Several minutes of wonderfully pleasant chit chat with Donna followed while I watched her prepare my food like a well-oiled machine. My food was soon ready, coming tightly packed on a heaped paper plate for me to eat in my car, although you can get it secured for a trip home or elsewhere. The crinkle cut fries, while unsurprisingly from a bag, were spot on, with shatteringly crisp exteriors and light, fluffy interiors. The burger was diner-style par excellence - steamed bun; a beefy, hand-made, griddle-cooked patty; melty cheese; sauteed onions, and some bite from mustard and relish. I should have nixed the ketchup to dial back the sweetness, but this was still a great little burger. A cup of house-made coleslaw was of the creamy variety, but still had a bit of tang to it, which helped cut through the rich meal a little bit. On my return visit, I went with the fish and chips. While it's a box that a lot of restaurants feel they have to check, and they do so poorly with from-frozen, pre-battered fish, I heard that Donna batters it in-house, so I was looking forward to trying it. This was a very good order of F&C. The batter was light and airy, and the two-piece was a good amount of food, with the pieces like the half filets that you'll see around, rather than the one gargantuan piece of fish that pubs often have for shock value. The fish was firm, but tender and flakey and I don't know if tartar sauce was forgotten or isn't offered, but I truly just enjoyed the fish on its own. Ceilidh Drive-In is among a dying breed of old school greasy spoons that do the simple stuff well, and while it took me a while to get there, it won't be long before I'm back.
