The Dairy Dip and Pizza Place — Restaurant in Lambton Shores

We chose this restaurant specifically because of the beautiful flowers outside and the vintage look. We ordered our food - poutine, and 2 drinks and a flatbread pizza. About 5 minutes later my order number was called and the young man. Behind the counter informed me that they had no gravy (it was 530pm) and said I could have fries and they would reimburse me. I said great no problem. A few minutes later he called my number again and gave me my son’s pizza. I was with my friend and her 2 kids and they were waiting for their food . 15 minutes later I’m still in a line up waiting for my fries, and drinks. My friend, her kids and my son are almost done eating. Washrooms are broken down and no hair nets on the woman working in the kitchen who’s wiping her brow. Someone in the kitchen asks what I’m waiting for and I said my order number and the items. She goes through the stack- finds it and realizes no one filled my order. They gave me one free ice cream coupon as an apology (3 kids in my group so we didn’t use the coupon) By this time my group is finished eating so I ate 1/4 of my fries maybe? They tasted off (wondering if the oil was old that was used) . My stomach hurt and about 3 hours later I was vomiting . I vomited throughout the night. That was the only food I had eaten since lunch time earlier. Dirty/ run down when you look closer, broken down washrooms, and the food wasn’t good and was expensive. Will never go there again. Bill was 33$ for a flatbread pizza and...

You know the great thing about Grand Bend? We get just about any food we want on the same street, and The Dairy Dip & Pizza Place proves why. After a morning exploring a new city, we were starving and ready for a substantial lunch — and this spot delivered in spades (and fries, and waffle toppings…).

The Cheeseburger and Canadian Flatbread Pizza were perfectly hearty and flavorful: basically the lunch equivalent of a hug. The Poutine? Comfort food at its finest. Fries and Onion Rings? Golden, crispy, and dangerously addictive.

Of course, we saved room for dessert, because soft serve waits for no one. The Chocolate Dipped Vanilla Soft Serve was creamy, dreamy, and slightly addictive, while the Belgian Waffles were a sugar-fueled masterpiece topped with Biscoff, brownies, and cheesecake. We may have eaten like tourists, but we left like champions.

The Dairy Dip is the best possible way to experience Grand Bend: nostalgic, indulgent, and perfectly beachside. And if you’re lucky, you can time it for their 65th anniversary celebration with games, prizes, and soft serve for just 65¢ — basically a reason to celebrate life. Highly recommended!

A Must-Visit Gem in Grand Bend!

If you're in Grand Bend and looking for a place to eat, do yourself a favour and stop by The Dairy Dip and Pizza Place. This family-owned spot is a true gem! We tried the Longboard pizza, and it was absolutely amazing—easily one of the best pizzas we've ever had. The crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavourful. We also tried the poutine and it was just as yummy! Bonus, prices were affordable.

But what really sets this place apart is the service. Renee, who served us, was just the sweetest. She was so friendly and kind, making us feel right at home. It's rare to find such warm and genuine service these days. The entire staff made sure our experience was top-notch, earning a well-deserved 10/10 for service.

As if that wasn't enough, they even treated the four kids we had with us to free ice cream! It’s little touches like this that make The Dairy Dip and Pizza Place stand out as an original, must-visit spot in Grand Bend. Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure to stop by—you won’t be...
