We found ourselves in Collingwood last Saturday as we were out enjoying the Fall colours. Of course we had to stop in at our favourite culinary experience in this area Northwinds. I say culinary experience because this is exactly what it is. I had the Waygu Cheeseburger and it was absolutely fabulous. Tender and delicious with juice running down your hands as you bite into this fantastic burger. It's extremely tasty! The extensive array of fresh brewed beers is mindblowing.

Reserved a table for dinner.Everything was perfect for the four of us with a table by one of the many windows with a view. Our server was friendly and efficient as I have always found the staff at past visits.The food was delicious and we had the curried mussels first, the pork loin with apple and the lobster pasta.It is always a great place whether stopping in for lunch while biking on the Georgian trail, or with a number of young children after a hike or a dress up celebration. Always welcoming, and comfortable.

A dinner with friends on a Friday night, not too busy, we were able to be seated straight away.We ordered the Meaford Home Style burger ($16.00) cooked medium, which comes dressed with sauteed mushrooms, smoked cheddar, a house-made tomato jam on a sourdough bun. Served with fries.Burger arrives, cooked a fair bit beyond medium and its a monster. There is no WAY you're getting this in your mouth without wearing the tomato jam from now until Sunday. Cut in half, still a challenge. My bun had spent a few minutes too long under the broiler as it had been overcooked, then scraped off. I tossed it aside and went in with a knife and fork.The jam is tasty which is more than I could say for the burger. Beef is nice, but nothing special. Fries were underwhelming. Disappointed.My wife had the deep fried southern chicken ($14.00), expecting fried chicken, on the bone, but were served more like chicken fingers or tenders. These too had run out the clock on the cook time. Disappointing.Our big surprise was the wine - a glass of Cab-Merlot that was, well, warm. Quite warm.Beyond room-temp warm in fact. When we asked, our server admitted the wine had been stored right beside the coffee burner. Oops. It was moved, we heard ice being put in a bucket, but who stores the wine next to the coffee?The Red Door has a lot going for it, a cute decor in a small town with limited mid-priced eats. Fast and friendly service, loads of potential. Sadly, they missed the mark the night we were there.Two mains, one glass of wine was $44.07 taxes in.

The quickest way to après is at Rusty's at Blue. Our sunny patio boasts the most picturesque view of the mountain.

Pub style restaurantService was excellent but that’s where it endsLarge selection of barbecue. The Beef brisket platter was a average barbecued beef with overdone barbecue sauce to cover the fatty meat.Small order of fries that were goodA skillet with Mac and cheese. You would think they would fill the skillet cover it with cheese and bake in oven, instead you get like warm macaroni that reminded me of Kraft dinner white sauce version without any flavour.Really disappointed.Kids menu lots of fried food.Barbecue rib platter was better but same side orders of Mac and cheese and a poor version of vinegar coleslawProperly a hot spot at night as a pub

Thornbury's "cornerstone" is freshened up, but like a few spots in town I feel they've missed the mark on providing something generous in portion, innovative in flavour and served with a spirit of hospitality.It fell short on all three accounts for us, again more of a drinking establishment than a must try place to eat.
5. Jozo's Bar

Reviewed By Banky B
Situated just outside the main village at Blue, Jozo's is generally less busy, more affordable and more laid back than the village restaurants. It's also better than many of them. The menu is not particularly large and you'll have a tough time finding something healthy, but they do a great job with what they do serve. Lots of really tasty, deep-fried treats like Parmesan onion rings, nachos and potato croquettes. Don't miss out on the smoked chicken wings. They are borderline exceptional, and one of the best things I've eaten anywhere at Blue.

I have tried this restaurant a number of times and I am done trying. Every single time they are understaffed and that leaves patrons waiting and waiting and waiting. The food is average and having to spend 2.5 hours in a restaurant for pub food (long wait to order, average wait for food, long wait for bill - even after chasing down the server) is unacceptable. Hugely disappointed.

When we are in Meaford on a Wednesday night we always head to The Leeky Canoe. Excellent wings, outstanding service (Kathee), reasonable prices. I have had some excellent soup here but the chicken vegetable was over spiced with an herb I couldn’t quite identify. Didn’t care for it and it was removed from the bill! Now that is customer service!

My Canadian cousins wanted to visit the Dam Pub so we did on a visit to Thornbury. The young woman server was friendly and nice and the prices reasonable. However, my ‘Club Sandwich’ resulted in an upset stomach. The guacamole on the top half of the ciabatta was black with herbs of some sort and not the fresh green colour of the avocado that my cousin had as a side. The chips accompanying the sandwich were overcooked little bits of potato. The chicken was moist and tender. My husband enjoyed his shaved beef sandwich and my cousins enjoyed their meals. The beer was enjoyed by the two men.

We booked a table for a Friday evening at 6:00pm for 30 guests. Everyone in our party had separate bills for couples/individuals and we really enjoyed our meal. The staff were friendly, efficient and attentive. Our meal, as always was very good. Booking in advance with Toban was simple and we even were able to get seated on the patio as it was a beautiful evening. Thank you Northwinds team!
