Where do we begin?
With fantastic flavours spread across this county, we definitely recommend grabbing a few well-deserved pints at 7/62 and Bancroft Brewing after a day spent in the great outdoors no matter the season!
Curd nerds will rejoice at the goodness of local cheese factories like Ivanhoe Cheese and Maple Dale and all butter tart connoisseurs need to make a trip to Hidden Goldmine Bakery (of course).
Finish it all off with a traditional tea at The O’Connor House English Tea Room situated right in the heart of historic Deseranto. Choose from homemade soups, sandwiches or a full-on high tea experience in a traditional Victorian setting. Their Devonshire scones are not to be missed!
Did you think we’d forget dessert? Kawartha Dairy Bancroft offers the perfect sweet treat for those just passing through or those staying a while.
