Let me start by saying the correct name for this place is Fortune's Madawaska Valley Inn.
They have an all day menu that includes items like pulled pork sandwiches, fish & chips, etc. Then at dinner time they add a blackboard menu for more dinner type items. When we were there, there was pickeral, chicken, braised beef short ribs, schnitzel, pasta and a few other things. Our group of four split an order of onion rings as an appetizer -- hot and nicely battered. 3 of us ordered schnitzel and 1 ordered the braised beef ribs. Everything was very, very good. Servings of the schnitzel were large. I asked for cranberries to go with my schnitzel but they didn't have any.
Our waitress was a bit forgetful. We had to ask twice about the cranberries before she remembered to check with the kitchen. We had to ask twice for milk for tea.
2 had butter tarts for dessert. They were small and hubby said not worth ordering again. I had the maple cinnamon roll which was partially warmed (not sure they did that). Had it been warmed fully, it would have been excellent.
One thing that I really didn't care for was that all the cutlery was in a container in the middle of the table. I don't think this is very sanitary.Read more
Come taste a delightful meal at Pakenham Inn & Copper Kettle Restaurant. They are open at night from Friday to Sunday and are conveniently accessible by car.
I have to say I am surprised no one has reviewed this place!
I don't live in this area but my father does, so when I visit him, the question sometimes arises of where to go to get a bite to eat. We would end up in the usual local spots and the food was always "alright".
Given that, this place is QUITE a find. The decor is nice, not overly fancy but clean and attractive.
The food on the other hand, is just fantastic. Frankly it exceeded any expectations that we had. The food was creative, well prepared and takes risks with flavors and ingredients. It goes way beyond a typical menu. Everyone that I went with was extremely impressed by the food and the friendly service.Read more
