We have been cultivating a local culinary heritage and pleasing palates since 1832. From one of Ontario's oldest farmers' markets operating since 1855 to the influential Stratford Chefs School - training chefs for over 25 years, some would say we have been passionate about food longer than we have been for theatre.

Stratford has a national reputation for culinary creativity represented by some of the finest restaurants in Canada. Our chefs are renowned for their artistry and have become culinary personalities, stars of three Food Network Canada television series: The Manic Organic, Fink and Chef School. From haute cuisine to country comfort food, fresh and inventive seasonal flavours await. It begins with the quality and freshness of our organic produce, artisanal breads and cheeses, pasture fed organic beef, Amish raised goat milk and heritage pork - all originating from surrounding Perth County. We are proud to list our restaurants who support local growers link to From Field to Chef.

Come to Stratford and enjoy the adventures of savouring our local cuisine - from dining to wandering on an Epicurean Trek through rich pastoral countryside in the spring, summer and fall.
