This hidden gem is definitely worth the stop! Quaint and eclectic decor surround you as you dine on delicious, fresh, local cuisine. I had a yummy trout sandwich and hubby had the bacon cheeseburger, which was juicy and tender. Be sure to try one of their house made botanical sodas!
Extremely fresh and farm to table operation. Can't go wrong with the steak. The deserts are amazing so defintely save space for it.
A wonderful restaurant to have a delicious dinner. The locally sourced lake trout was amazing! Beautiful gardens! Vegetarian options: Several choices for appetizers and main. Parking: Lots of spaces for capacity of restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for wheel chair.
Sweetest little spot. Tasty food. Friendly owners. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options. Plus a cute market/shop with local and artisan items. But a name like Garden's Gate means I must make mention of the incredible garden. You can sit in it while you eat or wait for your food. Bees and butterflies love this place and so do I.
The food is really good, but what it got me was the mouse cheese cake the best one I tried in canada so far.
Location: Garden’s Gate isn’t located in one of the island’s towns. It’s a 20 minute drive south-east from the town of Mindemoya on Hwy 542. From the ferry at South Baymouth you can take Hwy 6 and be at Garden’s Gate in just over 10 minutes. From Little Current, you can be at Garden’s Gate in just over 35 minutes via Hwy 6 south. Food: This is a first rate restaurant that focuses on fresh, local ingredients and genuinely caring preparation. Our first foray was a quick drop-in after checking out the Dark Sky Preserve. We were greeted warmly by Sheina, and after a brief chat we decided that looking at the menu in anticipation of the next day’s meal wasn’t enough. We ordered the appetizer charcuterie plate as a “tester” and sat in the garden to enjoy our food. It was a fabulous afternoon snack. Too often we’ve ordered charcuterie plates that offer great ingredients, but in quantities that barely feed a small child. Kevin’s plate combines the best of both worlds: high quality ingredients the blue cheese in particular was superb and enough food for two people to dig in for some very contented noshing. The next day we were very excited to return for dinner. We ordered two appetizers: Grilled Chicken Satay; and, Local Asparagus & Prosciutto Rolls. Both were outstanding, though if we had to choose between them we’d give the win to the chicken satay. The house made satay sauce was something special, and the chicken was cooked to juicy perfection. We each ordered the Pan Seared Rainbow Trout for our main course, and it was mouth wateringly delicious. The fish was lightly spiced, allowing the clean, fresh taste of the trout to take centre stage. As important, it was cooked perfectly. We savoured each and every bite - so, so good. We would definitely order this dish again. For dessert we chose a Lemon Cheesecake with Seasonal Berry Coulis, and the House-made Ice Cream Sandwich. The Lemon Cheesecake was the runaway winner of this contest. The cheesecake itself was light and airy with superb, rich flavour while the strawberry coulis was a perfect, not-too-sweet contrast to the gentle, citric tartness of the cake. The Ice Cream Sandwich was the only aspect of the dinner that was less than satisfying. While the ice cream itself was delicious, the cookie was just too hard to allow one to eat the dessert as a “sandwich”. This was made even more difficult by the fact that the chocolate in the cookie - while generous and of good quality - was added in large chunks as opposed to smaller chips, making the already hard cookie that much harder to bite through. When the sandwich concept defeated us, we switched to an open face approach, but still found the cookie and chocolate chunks too solid to fully enjoy. Ambiance: The Garden’s Gate is blessed with a beautiful location. The building is nestled amidst beautiful flower gardens, and tables are currently arrayed adjacent to the small parking lot we understand that the plan is to move the tables inside the garden post-Covid. Inside the building you’ll find Sheina, your amiable and genuinely welcoming hostess, as well as a selection of local artisanal food products and crafts produced by local artists we picked up a beautiful set of earrings while deciding what to order for dinner. This is a lovely space to enjoy good conversation and fabulous food. Price: The food is somewhat more expensive than other options we tried on the island, which is to be expected since it was far and away the best restaurant dining experience we enjoyed during our five day visit. We enjoyed two appetizers, two mains and two desserts for $125 HST and generous tip included, a very reasonable price considering the quality. And compared to what one might expect to pay for a meal of this quality in Toronto or other Canadian cities, the fare at Garden’s Gate is a bargain. We highly recommend dining at Garden’s Gate, and will definitely return the next time we’re on Manitoulin Island.
Family run restaurant with a lot of character and fantastic food. I had the chicken piccata which while it had subtle flavours, the sweetness, the cheese and the greens really worked well with the chicken. The outdoor area is also quite beautiful so I would recommend eating outside to enjoy the place even more.
Unbelievable experience from start to finish. Highly recommend the housemade sodas! Everything was so fresh and flavourful.
As of June 2018 there is major construction all around this wonderful restaurant, so if you make a reservation take the necessary detour time into account. The garden in front is beautiful, the restaurant is welcoming, and the staff is courteous. We had a very enjoyable meal, enjoyed the wide variety of craft beer, and absolutely had to try dessert. Garden's Gate is a well run, fantastic restaurant that is a bit out of the way, but worth adding to your list of must visit eats around Manitoulin. I will absolutely be returning and can only recommend that you check it out. Oh, also, they have a great selection of loose leaf tea.
This place is very special. It has a beautiful setting in a house with a garden full of flowers, cosy interior with cute local art and engaged staff with a good sense of humor. And there is the FOOD. Always simply scrumptious but also unusual and surprising menu options which are usually based on local products. For example, last time we tried a salad with edible flowers from their garden which I thought was just too pretty to eat see the picture but after we tried it, its flavor was as good as its presentation. Chicken with blueberry sauce was fantastic, too I never thought that they would go together so well. And they always amazing dessert options. It was our second time, and even if this place is not the cheapest, the whole experience is totally worth your money.
