Cabin in Ontario

"The CABIN Café at the McMichael Art Gallery in Kleinburg was a delightful discovery during our visit. After exploring the gallery, sitting down to a meal here felt like the perfect way to wrap up the experience. The menu offers a mix of comfort food and creative dishes, and everything we tried was delicious. Their Cabin Cheeseburger burger with crispy kettle chips was flavorful and satisfying, and the smoked trout toast stood out as a personal favorite with its fresh and vibrant taste. Another highlight was the truffled grilled cheese was indulgent, paired beautifully with curried ketchup and pesto sauces, while the pictured avocado toast with a side of crisp salad was equally enjoyable. On another earlier visit, I tried the Tuna Nicoise Salad, a refreshing and light option, while my companion had the Chopped kale, cabbage, Beet Hummus salad, which was crisp and flavorful. To top it off, a cappuccino paired with a slice of chocolate XO cake made for a satisfying late-afternoon treat. The café's welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and stunning views from the picture windows added to the charm. Whether you're hungry after a gallery tour or just in the area, the CABIN Café is a must-visit!"

"We were lucky to be seated promptly. They do fill up quickly. We have the kids meal hamburger, chicken fingers and both had a side of fries. The hamburger was disappointing. Would not recommend the flavor was not there and the bun was not that great. The chicken tender I would recommend. Well seasoned and crispy. Fries were good. I thank our server who recommended the piripiri chicken. Wow. Presentation was nice and flavor were spot on. Would highly recommend this dish."

"We were visiting the McMichael Art Collection so decided to stop by the restaurant for a bite before. We got the hamburger plus avocado toast. The hamburger was decent - good portion size and decent flavor. The avocado toast was underwhelming as the toast tasted cheap, was not toasted properly and there avocado on top did not have a lot of flavor. We did stop by the dessert bar afterwards and those were definitely better"

"It is hard to imagine a more rustic Canadian setting than the McMichael Gallery in Kleinberg. I am a huge fan of the collection and also of the numerous and varied special exhibits which they bring through the gallery. Besides the collection, the beautiful fieldstone encrusted log cabin, which the gallery is housed in is a treasure for Toronto. On this occasion, we stopped in for a coffee at the Cabin Café located in the main atrium of the building. The café has very favourable opening hours and makes wonderful use of the space available in the main atrium. We were seated adjacent to the large, forest facing windows, and on this snowy December day it was an absolute winter wonderland. As I have said in other reviews, I don't believe it is fair to hold a restaurant to the same standard of coffee excellence that small specialty coffee shops obtain. My coffee here was hot and flavorful, and the service was excellent . This is north of Toronto at its finest in the winter and absolutely a destination which can be enhanced with the coffee and a chat."

"Such a charming spot! We dined in a cozy cabin with a breathtaking view of the snow falling outside. The food was comforting and delicious, and the atmosphere was so warm and inviting. Perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal on a snowy day"

"We took a short break at the Cabin Café in the main lobby while visiting the McMichael Art Gallery. The space is bright and airy, making it a pleasant spot to rest during the visit. The pastries were good as well—simple and enjoyable. A nice place to recharge before continuing through the gallery."

"This restaurant is in the Mc Micheal Art Gallery. A very airy, bright and clean establishment. Prices and portions are reasonable and the service is very quick. A nice way to finish or start your day at the gallery."

"We popped into the small cafe at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg, in the city of Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, on an afternoon the other day after a three-hour tour of the gallery. The space was fine - with big windows offering good views of the Humber River Valley. We had avocado toast, chopped salad and chocolate brownie with coffee. They also have truffle grilled cheese, smoked fish toast and cabin cheeseburger. The service was warm and relaxed - perfect for a slow afternoon between gallery strolls."
