Stopped as a group of 3 on our way to a friends cottage. We made sure to stop on the way back again for lunch -ordering different items . The onion rings were so crispy and fluffy, tenders were homemade, would have preferred real cheese on the nachos but that’s my own fault for having a different idea of what “nacho cheese “ was. Overall really enjoyed

Another year at camp means another stop at the Hippie Chippie. Solid chicken parm sandwich shared along with a poutine and deep fried oreos. Now we need a nap! Added pic of menu and hours.

Let's say this.. premium beef quality,, Awesome onion rings because they are cut wide, 10/10,, We wish they would still have their jerk dish as a special sometimes. But quality top shelf..

Excellent service despite the many customers. Food came hot and freshly made. The one love classic hamburger contains AAA beef and tasted excellent, with perfect grilled flavour. The regular classic poutine and taco fry (also contains real quality beef chunks) hit the spot after a long day of riding. There's about 4 benches with umbrellas and you can hit up the ice cream shack next door when you're done. This May long weekend they also had a lovely inflatable slide for the kids in the back! A must stop in the area.

Best chip truck around! Great food for good prices! Bird of the word is the best chicken sandwich! If you want a poutine that won't disappoint, you need to try theirs! Friendly staff and always my to go for Friday nights!

Overall a solid poutine and overall delicious bites with an outdoor atmosphere. We stopped by this food truck while traveling. I ordered a classic poutine and it was very well done. Fries remained crispy, gravy and cheese curds were topped off evenly. Excellent flavour without too much saltiness. The grilled cheese was interesting as it was also sandwiched with more cheese. It added to the cheesy flavour but it wasn't my favourite. The wings were Amazing. We ordered sweet jerk dry seasoning and it was not a disappointment. Served just right. If I'm in the area again I would definitely go back!
