Some of the best truck stop diners in canada. Open 24⁄7 driver priority seating. Driver brekfast special actuly worth the money and time. Service is average. Food quality above average. Bakery is below average in quality. Facility is clean and we’ll maintained. Plenty of parking and free strong WiFi. Would recomend to friends. Menu recomend: the hanger. Can’t go wrong.

My husband and father-in-law gushed about how amazing this place is and how good the food is, so when I went, I was expecting something really good. Instead, my experience was so-so. Walking in, I saw the variety of baked goods and other items for sale, and was impressed by the variety. However, the little shop with spices and other things didn’t open until 10 and unfortunately, I missed out on checking that part out. As for our breakfast, service was really good. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. It was fairly early when we went so I wasn’t the most hungry. I ordered the English Muffin Breakfast sandwich minus the egg and an order of home fries. While the sandwich was not expensive, I definitely feel I could’ve made a comparable or better sandwich at home. The home fries were very bland and left a lot to be desired. The prices of the food were very reasonable, but you definitely are getting what you pay for with mediocre food.

We went into Arnprior to have dinner at another place but they had closed early. Not knowing where else we should go we decided to check out the truck stop. This is a fairly large truck stop with a ginormous gift shop. They’ve got all sorts of knick knacks to fritter your money away on. They also have an in-house bakery where you can pick up some bread or other baked goods. The restaurant is quite large and the first thing you notice is the cleanliness of the place. It’s insane. I’ve never seen a restaurant this clean before. The floors, tables, and booths were spotless. Nothing was out of place, salt n pepper shakers and ketchup all lined up perfectly. The attention to detail is something to see. The service was great. Multiple quality checks and friendly service. As to the food. As an appetizer I went for the deep fried pickles. At 3.99 I was expecting a couple of gherkins as the price is usually double that in a restaurant. To my surprise they showed up full sized. They were great. Nice crispy batter. For the main event I went with the fish n chips, which were ok. Typical frozen fish and crinkle cut fries. I’m no Jay when it comes to crinkle cut fries and prefer regular ones. The fish was middle of the road. I’ll definitely be hitting up this place again in the future. It’s nice that it’s open 24 hrs.

Waitresses are below average and will not check up on you. Food is comparable to any dinner. You have to ask for anything after initial order even water refills. Disturbing amount of Christian /Military stuff everywhere. It’s close the highway and if you’re passing through is worth a quick stop but nothing to write home about.

open 24 hours and right on hwy 17 this place is handy to have around ;) Its a big restaurant so there are lots of tables and I have only ever waited for a table on holidays when other restaurants are closed. The dining area is bright and always clean — its filled with a mix of table and really great booths. There is a large menu with all the necessary truck stop/diner foods. The breakfasts are really good — there are no substitutions for anything so you get home fries no matter what. Make sure to check out the bakery on the way out — there cookies are fantastic!

Yes, it is a truck stop; BUT, it is not what you think. I was visiting a friend in the area and, the morning after a late night of drinking, we required a delicious breakfast. He recommended«the truck stop», which sounded like a bad idea to me. I was wrong. We were greeted by a friendly waitress at the entrance, and were quickly shown to our booth. On the way to our seats, I was amazed to see that the place was spotless; AND they have a bakery on premises. All of our baked goods were freshly made! The menu is large and everything tastes home cooked. No gross oily eggs. If you happen to be in the area, I really recommend you check it out.
