Ferns Restaurant - Kirkland Lake

It has been said here a few times. When you see a place where a lot of locals go, you know that it has to be good. This restaurant was very busy at 9.30am on a Friday morning during a snow storm! The staff was fun, the food was good and the atmosphere was very nice. It gave you a good sense of small town northern Ontario. Breakfast was put together nicely, very hearty and had some good flavour. It is not a 5 star restaurant, by any means, but it is well worth a visit, just to interact with the people and enjoy some good 'home cooked' meals.

Awesome food & Great service They have very good breakfast. Theirs a good portion of food & price very reasonable! You will not be disapointed1!

Looks rundown from the outside but inside its a warm atmosphere, locals definitely come here, it was very busy.I was on a time crunch so I had the Chicken Caesar Salad, it was very good.The server was polite, the layout is open concept, you can see the kitchen from anywhere. The service was fast, especially considering how busy is was.I'll go back again eventually, I would recommend it for sure.

Stopped for lunch with my daughter. She always raved about it so thought we needed to try it. She was right. I had a cheeseburger and frenchfries. Everything was home made. Portions were so big I couldn't finish it all. My daughter had her regular chicken fingers and fries. Don't think the fingers were home made, but she said they were excellent. Nice staff and a comfortable down to earth atmosphere. Lots of regulars there so that alone should tell you how good it was. Highly recommended if your in Kirkland lake or just driving through.

I was staying on night/day in Kirkland Lake. The hotel only offered the high carb/high sugar options so I sought a place where a healthy omelette was available. Fern's came through. The service was a bit slow but it was peak time on Saturday morning. I found the restaurant to be very cold (it's in an old building). But overall, well done. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
