Our mission? Great people helping other great people totally have a blast while enjoying amazing food. Wow, that was a mouthful. But can you blame us? We’re a restaurant. One that specializes in delicious food and great times. Our goal is to make you laugh. And depending on your hot sauce tolerance, cry.In all seriousness, we take real pride in our food. Try our Cluckin’ Fresh Chicken Fingers, made and seasoned with fresh, never frozen chicken tenders. This isn’t run-of-the-mill pub grub. Our Band of Chefs are influenced by a wide variety of tastes and have travelled across the globe to gain inspiration. But outside of the kitchen, we find it hard to take ourselves seriously. We have an Elvis booth. For no particular reason. Folks, that really does say it all. We’re sports fanatics, music nuts and love a good joke. If you’re into at least one of those things, we should hang out.

    My husband and I dined here on Christmas Day for dinner. Wow, Wow, Wow is all I can say! An extraordinary meal from beginning to end. We were greeted by Hazel at the front of the restaurant with a lovely smile-she was so pleasant! Hazel escorted us to our table and then Alexa introduced herself as our server for the evening. Such a lovely lady! Thank you Alexa! Every staff member we encountered was very pleasant and professional. The dinner was exquisite. We both had the squash and pumpkin soup, followed by the best turkey dinner I think I have ever had and then we finished with the peppermint creme brule. We had a local Niagara white chardonnay to accompany our turkey dinner. My compliments to all the staff and chefs in the kitchen. We will be back for sure. NOTL is a relatively short drive down the road from our home in Oakville, Ontario. Do yourself a favour-make a reservation for dinner here-it is simply outstanding!
