1. Vincenzo's
Waterloo, ON N2M 1P2
(519) 741-1437
Categories:
Caterers,
Delis,
Sandwiches,
Cheese Shops
The BEST Sandwiches in Southern Ontario!!
I was introduced to Vincenzo's by a friend who took me here for a fresh deli sandwich and let me tell you, their sandwiches DO NOT disappoint.
Picture an Italian panini, with fresh brie, a generous serving of…More »
2. Brick Brewery
This place is THE place to go for private parties.
Twice throughout my university experience I got 30 friends together, booked the brewery for 3 hours and drank all we could drink. It worked out to about $10-15 a person.
They advertise it as a…More »
3. Federation Hall
Federation Hall is a great venue to hold a reception of any kind and is located right on the University of Waterloo campus.
As a wedding venue (I've been to two weddings here now), it is ideal.
First of all the bar is as long as the room is wide so…More »
4. Perimeter Institute
Waterloo, ON N2L 2Y5
(519) 569-7600
What should you know about Perimeter Institute? Well first of all it houses the best theoretical physicists in the world...yes, the world. This place was founded by Mike Lazaridis, RIM's co-CEO. Steven Hawking has visited and sat on the board of…More »
5. Pilot Pita
What makes Pilot Pita different than Pita Pit and Extreme Pita?
Well, a few things.
1) It's independently owned, run and it's the only location.
2) You can order your pita online, and then pick it up or have it delivered which is kind of cool
And…More »
6. The Duke of Wellington
A brunch and day drinking favourite!
Between the solarium for cold days, and the sunny patio in the summer, there is nowhere I'd rather be in Waterloo when I'm looking for an afternoon pint or a greasy breakfast in the morning.
They get a great turn…More »
7. Morty's Pub
The best wings in KW!
The wings are saucy, humungous, delicious and on Monday and Thursday night they are only 69 cents a wing (though they're worth paying full price for).
They have a great patio, lots of dedicated regulars, and televisions for…More »
8. Barley Works Bar & Grill
Barley Works - which most of the local students just refer to as 'The Huether' has one of the biggest patios in the city and is absolutely packed with people from the moment the weather turns warm until it starts to get cold again in the fall.
Along…More »
9. McGinnis Frontrow Restaurant
I actually worked here briefly during university so I can give you the inside scoop on this place.
It's run by a guy named Dino who owns a few other restaurants, but essentially, it's a pretty independent establishment which should be an up since it's…More »
10. Williams Fresh Cafe
Williams is kind of like KW's Tim Horton's. Okay, not really, Tim Horton's is flourishing in KW too but there certainly seem to be as many William's coffee locations as Tim's in the city.
Williams serves coffee, obviously, but it also serves a wide…More »
11. Failte Irish Pub
I like Failtes. It's smaller than the other pubs in the area and unlike the other university student filled pubs on the King St. strip this pub tends to attract the locals. It has a small courtyard in the back and the staff are really friendly.…More »
12. Fox & Fiddle
Fox and Fiddle is an incredibly typical university pub.
The place does NOT have that cozy pub feel to it, in fact, for the size of the place, there is very little seating, but there is a lot of standing room and that's sort of what they expect people…More »
13. Ethel's Lounge
I'd skip it.
I mean, it's okay and they are said to have the best antojitos in the city but the place is too dirty for me and no matter how often I have stopped in, I've always preferred the other bars along King St. to this one.
They have a big dark…More »
14. The Pita Pit
The Pita Pit is smaller and somehow feels grungier than the just steps away Pita Factory. The prices are about the same and the pita ingredients are pretty similar too.
This place definitely services the post bar crowd, especially those coming out of…More »
15. Viet Sun
If you're a university student, this place is ideal. Massive portions and cheap cheap prices. I was definitely a fan of this place during those years. I mean really, what's not to like right?
The problem is (and this is personal preference) now I'm…More »
16. The Rude Native Bistro
Known for their mussels, the Rude Native is alright.
I'll tell you what I like about the Rude Native. It's bright and colourful, they have a patio and the restaurant itself has kind of a funky trendy feel to it.
The appetizer menu doesn't have much…More »
17. Dairy Queen
This Dairy Queen appears to double as a local hangout because it is always packed with loitering teenagers.
The service is friendly and this is the location that I learned that I have a serious weakness for Cookie Dough Blizzards, the thought of them…More »
18. Dairy Queen
This dairy queen seems to be located in the middle of a bunch of nothing, but it's dairy queen, so it's worth the trek.
If you've never tried a blizzard, you absolutely must! Cookie Dough is hands down my favourite flavour. Stick with a small size…More »
19. Taylor's Bridal Boutique
The best bridal shop in Southern Ontario. Period.
First of all, Linda, the owner, is maybe the sweetest woman you will ever meet. I've bought both bridesmaid dresses through them when other friends have been married and of course been there for my…More »
Recently updated lists from Madelaine D.
Wedding Venues, Shops, etc. (8)Believe it or not, I will be attending 9 weddings this year...including my own! I've also been to several over the last few years so I'm becoming a bit of an expert on the subject. |

My favourite restaurants (8) |
Thai Restaurants (4) |
30-Day-Challenge (30)Toronto's 30 day challenge - 30 reviews in the month of October. It should be a review a day, but I fell off the bandwagon at day 22 due to a vacation to the states with little to no access to internet. I'm going to keep going anyway, just for sh*ts and giggles.http://www.yelp.ca/eve... |
Avoid these places (6)My 1 star reviews. |
Romantic French Restaurants (3)The very best romantic french restaurants |
Best Places to go on a Date (8)A comedy show, a music performance at a coffee shop, a picnic with fresh cheese, an evening at a museum, or walk through a funky part of town finished with a coffee (or beer) on a patio... these are some great date ideas. |
GoodLife Fitness (9)My opinion on the GoodLife gyms around the city. I don't really have a 'home' gym, instead I work out where ever I'm closest to that day. |
Yonge and Eglinton (33)Yonge and Eg, Yonge and Eligible, call it what you will, here is a list of businesses in the area in alphabetical order |
