Top Food & Drinks Spots in Ontario

Check out the 360 Restaurant for a meal, but be ready to splurge a bit. I found the food great, but you can save money by just visiting the observation deck first.

Don’t forget your camera. The photo ops are amazing, but be mindful of your surroundings since it can get crowded near the edges.

Definitely get your tickets online before you go. I saved a bunch of time skipping the line at the entrance by doing this!

Try to visit around sunset; the views are absolutely breathtaking and you can catch both day and night scenes of the falls.

If you're on a budget, consider grabbing a coffee or snack in the gift shop area instead of dining at the full restaurant. It's still a good view without the high price!

You might want to ask about the history of the vineyard during your visit. I did, and it really added to the experience. I felt more connected to the place!

My advice is to go on a weekday, especially around 2 PM. The crowds are way smaller and you can enjoy the experience more without feeling rushed.

I recommend bringing some snacks to enjoy with your wine. The selection is great, but having some cheese or crackers made it even better. Plus, it stretches out the tasting.

I suggest trying to visit on weekdays if you can. It’s way less crowded, and you can snag a pool table without the long wait times. I had to wait quite a bit on a busy weekend.

My advice is to bring a group. The more, the merrier! It makes the games more fun and you're more likely to get a table right away. Solo play can be lonely here.

If you’re going for billiards, bring your own cue if you have one! The house cues can be hit or miss, and I wished I’d brought mine for better shots.

Check out the menu for their shareable plates, it's an awesome way to snack while you play darts. I wasn't sure at first, but they turned out to be delish!

If you're planning to play darts, try to get there right when they open, around 5 PM. You’ll avoid the crowd and get a dartboard without a wait!

i think the drink specials are awesome, especially during happy hour. make sure to ask the bartender what's on deal; it could save you a bunch!

Be ready for some event nights - they can get busy! I suggest checking their social media beforehand to see if they have a tournament or theme night.

I recommend going on a weekday if you can. It was less crowded when I went on a Thursday, and the staff had more time to chat and share tips about cheese pairings.

My advice is to check their schedule online before you go. I underestimated the time needed for the tour, and almost missed out on the good stuff at the end!

I think it's worth asking about their seasonal cheeses, especially if you're looking for something unique. I tried one that was only available that week, and it was amazing!

I suggest trying their cheese tasting platter; it's a great deal and you get to sample a variety of cheeses! Don't skip the ones with herbs—super tasty!

if you're planning to play pool, make sure to check if there are any ongoing tournaments. i didn’t, and ended up having to wait a while for a table. so maybe plan around that!

I recommend trying their nachos while you're there; they're super tasty! Just keep in mind that the portions are pretty big, so bring a friend to share if you wanna save a bit.

My advice is to check out their social media for any events or live music nights. I missed a local band that played the night before my visit, and it sounded like a blast!

I recommend trying their signature cocktails, but don't go for the shots too early - they can hit hard! I learned that the hard way.

I suggest checking out their happy hour specials they can really help you save some cash on drinks! I found a good deal from 5 to 7 PM.

My advice is to arrive early, around 8 PM, to snag a good spot. By 10 PM, places start filling up quickly, and you might end up standing.

So, I think you should try their signature cocktails—they're worth it! Just a heads up, they can be a bit pricey, so maybe share one if you're looking to save cash.
