    The food was very average but above average prices. Not a lot of options. We’re staying at the hotel and were planning on eating here twice but not enough choices for that. The tuna crudo was our favorite dish. We had their special for dessert and it was ok.

    I created an account just so I could heap praise on our servers Patricia and Jackie! We ended up having dinner here two nights in a row and both nights we recieved special attention, warm welcomes, seamless accomodation and a lot of charm from all of the serving staff, from the hosts to the food runners, but especially from our main servers. We left our take-home container behind, and Patricia walked it across the facility to our room, which was above and beyond what we expected. The next night Jackie remembered us (though she hadn't served us the night before) and made sure to make our second night as special as the first. The food was slightly overpriced, in my opinion, but the waitstaff made everything worth while -- these ladies are your best asset and I hope you appreciate them!

    Thank you Brittany for taking the time to share your experience with us. I will be sure to pass on your comments to both Patricia and Jackie. They will be thrilled to hear that you liked their service. We can't wait to welcome you back again soon.

    The aps were not great. Over priced and had barely any flavour. The mains were good but my husband got sick from the halibut. Deserts were ok. Service was wonderful, our waiter was so lovely. Overall, the price was too high for the quality and taste of the food.
    Headwaters Restaurant at Millcroft Inn & SpaResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback. We will make sure to let server know that you enjoyed their service. As well we will pass on your comment to our chef in regards to the halibut. We are sorry and hope that this doesn't discourage you from visiting us again.

    Amazing Mother’s Day brunch today. Food was great and the service even better. We drove from Toronto and it was well worth the drive. Beautiful grounds and setting. But all of this would mean nothing if the service wasn’t up to par. Far exceeded our expectations. Amazing people you have working there.
