Great little spot - off the beaten path and allows you to sit right by the water. And sometimes if you are lucky and grab a spot on the porch you get to sit overtop of the water and watch the fish and turtles.

This is a great little cafe on the main street in Bobcaygeon. If you want some fresh light eats this is the place for you to try. This restaurant does have a patio - so make a reservation as it can be busy. I would recommend the turkey and brie melt - it is amazing! The service here is also great.
