The food is consistently good. I have been here a couple times when we visit the area. A bit on the salty side and lacking in veg options. Most things are gluten-free which is important for myself due to celiac disease. We find it on the pricey side in comparison to other Mexican or Latin eateries. Service is always fantastic, and they have a nice patio.

While they have nice seating, good gluten free options, and friendly staff, it is too expensive for what you get, small portions, with clearly frozen fries.

This is the best bakery I have ever been to. The staff working are always OUTSTANDING. So friendly and provide amazing service, making you feel welcome and really make you want to go back. Prices are so reasonable. I’m often surprised at how affordable my bill is, especially with how good the quality of the food and how amazing the service. I have celiac and can only eat gluten free, and black honey bakery ALWAYS has a selection of items safe for me to eat. I often go to other places who quickly run out of their gluten free options so I always end up back at black honey. Any gluten free item that I’ve tried has always been very moist and a nice texture (something that is hard to come across). 15/10 would come here every single day. To the owner: I hope you never change a thing about this place, it’s truly amazing!

I can't believe I haven't posted a review yet for our favourite breakfast spot! Copper Spoons is everything you would want in a breakfast restaurant. It's cozy, but full of regulars and fun banter, the service is fantastic and the food is amazing and so affordable. The owner is always there and always remembers our order, even though we don't get the opportunity to go that often. I recently made the switch to gluten free/dairy free and was thrilled that CS could not only accommodate my diet, but serve the best GF bread I've ever had. There is a reason there is always a lineup out to the street. I guarantee it's worth the wait!

Full disclosure: we had originally attempted to get a reservation at the Keg but they were booked. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as Berc’s was far and away the superior experience. Waitstaff was very friendly and helpful, the ambiance is classic fine dining aesthetic and the meal value is very high for the price. As a celiac I was pleasantly surprised by the addition of crackers in place of bread prior to the main course; my typical experience is watching my wife eat bread by herself so this was a nice touch. We had our 7 year old with us and were grateful for catering to his taste with some plain butter pasta that he raved about. All adults agreed that our meals were excellent too and overall the consensus was Berc’s provided a 5 star experience. Thank you to the staff and owners for a memorable 40th birthday dinner.

I sent my husband to pick up some delicious treats for me because I’m obsessed with the peanut butter pie and the caramel pecan pie. He was met with gratitude and amazing customer service they threw in some extra things for us to try. We also purchased some of the low-carb pasta as our daughter is a type one diabetic and also has celiac. This place is amazing and drive for us. My only complaint is that I didn’t order enough.

This is the best boardgame cafe I've ever been to! I've wanted to go to boardwalk since they opened but I'm not from the area so I haven't been able to make it before now. It was so worth the wait! They have a great variety of games in their library. They organize them with colored stickers so you can find a game that will fit your group size, difficulty, and age group needs. It's perfect for people who may want to try an expensive game before spending the money on it. The employees are super knowledgeable about the games and can give tips and recommendations if you need any help. The cafe is well lit so it's the perfect place to play. There was a boardgame pub in my old town that had low lightning to give it more of a nightlife vibe, but you couldn't see the games very well; so this was a pleasant surprise. The menu variety is phenomenal. They have vegan and gluten free options. The thing that stuck out the most to me was that you can substitute gluten free bread for your sandwich for NO EXTRA COST! I've never seen a menu that treats people with dietary restrictions like humans. Also, the cookies are made to order and they definitely live up to the hype! I will absolutely be back and I can't wait to try more games!

Large restaurant specializing in breakfasts and brunch. They were able to accommodate our family group of 10 with no difficulty.

The coffee drinks were pronounced delicious and the eggs Benny and French toast were particularly good.

Had a new experience dining at Fresh Dreams in Peterborough on Saturday night. The atmosphere was a little cold and I found the tables too close together for my liking. The service was excellent, prompt and efficient. The food was delicious and honestly the best scallops i’ve ever had. I was not a fan of how the meal was served though. I like to eat a meal with a veggie and a starch on the same plate with my protein. Instead, at Fresh Dreams, they serve everything separately. Not a fan. I felt it took away from my dining experience. I loved that they offered a gluten free desert. 😊 Overall, a great experience but I probably won’t be back.

Great pizza, love the BBQ chicken! Had a gluten, vegan cheese bbq chicken as well. Very friendly staff, helped us pick a combo to add wings and a drink. Will definitely be back. Update. These guys are amazing and it has become our regular spot. They ran out of goat cheese one night for an order. It wasn’t a big deal but they went out of their way to go find more to make sure our pizza was perfect! Amazing guys! Great service! The BEST pizza!

Before I get into this review; I am a celiac and have been attending this location monthly for the past year. This place is AMAZING. The menu options are always a hit, I’ve never left feeling unsatisfied. Also- they are always so great with avoiding cross contamination as my gluten allergy is incredibly sensitive to even the slightest contact. The people who work here are always so kind and helpful with menu options for allergies. Definitely my fav place for a great dinner out in PTBO. 10/10 🙌

We went for breakfast at this restaurant while visiting Peterborough. The portions were generous and everything we ordered was good. The service in particular was excellent. The waitress that attended us was very friendly and on the second day we went she remembered us from the previous day and could remember that my husband is celiac so she was able to recommend the gluten free options.

I came in today to inquire about the gluten-free subs. The online allergen menu indicates there should be many gluten-free sub options. However, when I asked in person, the staff said none of the meats are gluten-free? Then what is the point in offering a gluten-free bun? Not impressed.

We came here at a very quiet time so it was nice to get the restaurant to ourselves! We went in with not a clue of what we were going to get but Aman was so nice and helped us decide while also giving a great suggestion for my friend who can’t have gluten! The prices are really good, the portions are great! The food was fantastic! I wish I could’ve gotten a bigger size of the iced chai because it was bomb 😂
