Worst burger with worst Patty, lot of grease and potatoes that tasted like paper. All the food is industrial and fat. Very low quality and very bad taste. The waitress was nice that’s the only point.

Amazing staff, super friendly to talk to, and they always make sure you're looked after. Food was AMAZING and the warm cider is ESPECIALLY good on a cold morning. They also have a number of local beers which are awesome after a long day! Feels...More

Walk through the doors and you are in a 50's style diner complete with the old chrome, vinyl and arborite tables and chairs! This is a licensed eatery serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and everything in between. They serve ice cream in cones and have an...More

We had read about Rachel's and our experience matched the positive reviews. The food was excellent and the service particularly good. The staff member handled multiple requests from customers stress-free. We had the soup and a sweet treat, as well as coffee. Wonderful!

Cute little spot with outdoor dining. With that said I have frequented a couple of times and would say service is slow at best. We were there on a busy night, we came with our patience knowing it would be busy but after 20 minutes...More

Okay Rachel's butter tarts are so good that they melt in your mouth and you feel like one is never enough. But how many butter tarts can one eat -- guilt guilt. Great little place for a light meal.
