Delicious panini! We both had the 40 Creek panini (chicken and cheese) The portions are very generous, the food very tasty. One panini would have been sufficient for both of us especially as we also ordered one with the side dish and a drink.

The 5 stars for "Atmosphere" were 100% due to the hubby & wife pairing. The hubby greeted me in a panic saying "Oh I'm so sorry I didn't see you there!" to which I replied "It's okay. I was only here for like... 40 minutes..." and he IMMEDIATELY picked up on my sarcasm, smiled and said "Oh thank goodness!" Everything... and I do mean EVERYTHING after that just got BETTER! :0) SUPER fast service. Super friendly folks. AMAZING food!!! HUGE portions! I was looking for a First Nations themed menu and landed here instead. I'll keep looking for First Nations options on Manitoulin (I'm sure there's plenty) but if you find yourself in this neck of the woods, are famished, and willing to stick to a non-local menu, you will NOT be disappointed! (Note: My tiny little 91 yo Mom had the Pierogis and absolutely CRUSHED through them and then went on to the Philly Cheesesteak Hoagie. Only managed a few bites because she was stuffed but very happy. Only mentioning here because Pierogis don't show in the list below and she said they were fantastic.)

Absolutely delicious lunch food. I got the Philly cheesesteak, and other people I was with got the 40 creek panini and pizza panini, and everything was absolutely amazing. Quality food for fair prices. During covid its drive thru only, but they were fast and efficient none the less. Must try if in the area

Four of us came here for the 15 lunch sandwichsidedrink combo on a Tuesday. The Italian meatball and 40 creek chicken sandwiches were really flavourful. The meatballs taste homemade and are really good. I like the touch of using naan bread for the panini. The poutine and potato supreme were ok. We thought the potatoes could use more flavour - maybe cut them smaller with some good seasoning would make them great. Everything is packed nicely and utensils are in a plastic bag which is good during covid times.

A drive up only, take-out only restaurant on the eastern edge of the beautiful village of Kagawong on Manitoulin Island. A smallish menu with a wide range of delicious choices from local beef and pork to non-traditional takeout options including vegetarian. Chef Jean prepares each order as it is placed, which translates to fresh, delicious, large portions, and without equal on the Island. Jamie greets and delivers at the drive up with a cheerful word to all. No muss, no fuss, just great food to be enjoyed at home or while in your vehicle.

Stopped here for lunch, absolute gem! The menu was so classic yet unique. There was tons of variety and great bang for buck! Prices were amazing and people at the counter were friendly and fun, perfect spot to pick up some food and enjoy it at a scenic spot on the island. Great place, I'll definitely come back on my next trip to manitoulin, bummed there isn't one of these in my city!!!

Sandwiches are terrific and service is outstanding. But skip the loaded "fries"--they're actually boiled potato cubes that have made very brief contact with a frying pan. Not bad for boiled potatoes, but misnamed.
