Ate at the pub. Service was excellent and food was fantastic. My father got Liver, my mum and husband had the fish and chips and I had a poutine. All was delicious. I wish they had more vegetarian options though.Love the decor and vibe.

If I can give 6 start here, I would! It's not just a hotel but a heritage experience, and cleanliness is above any standards. Rooms are not big, though, so if you have a lot of stuff, it's not a right place - but if you are looking for a romantic weekend, there is no better choice. The restaurant is very good, too.

Extremely friendly and authentic experience. The building is the real deal and perfect for a genuine western experience. The bed is so comfortable the rooms are full of antique furniture, it truly feels like you have stepped back in time. The bar beneath other reviewers have claimed is noisy when sleeping but I can honestly say it did not affect us. The bar and food was all very good. Staff make you feel like they have known you for years and the locals are friendly. What more could you possibly want from a Quaint Hotel in pretty little town.

The staff were very accommodating and would regularly ask us if there was anything else we needed to ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible. The adjoining restaurant was really good as well: the food was excellent, the portion sizes were generous, and the price was incredibly reasonable.

Had such an amazing all day breakfast skillet scrambler. Pulled beef with poached egg on top and hash brown and sauce. Probably the best breakfast dish I've ever had in my life so far. Our waitress was the BEST! She was so friendly and knew so many things about the area. We will be back. We want to try everything on this menu.
