I don't know how many times I've driven past Wrap Stars over the years and thought "We should try that some time" but have kept driving - and all to often just stopped at one of the many chip trucks along the way. We were recently returning from Durham and made the impulsive decision to stop - and were REALLY glad we did! The atmosphere is more than a bit funky - they're still not open to the public, with their Covid protection take out shed/window still in place (I'm not faulting them for that; it ain't over). And for "eat in" there was a scattering of old picnic tables on a patch of scrubby grass under some trees - although the shade was welcome, it was a hot afternoon. But the menu was HUGE - far more offerings than we expected, with not only "the usual" array of wraps, burgers, fries etc, but "bowls"* and a surprising array of Italian selections (not something I'd think of from a place advertising wraps).
My wife ordered a bowl, and I ordered a wrap... but we both received wraps. But they were large and looked and smelled delicious so she decided to make the best of it - and said it was great. So despite that glitch we really enjoyed our meals.
A nice touch was a surprise treat from our server. While waiting for our order he casually asked where we were from, what we were doing in the area - the usual chitchat (and another nice break from what can often be surly or silent service from roadside take outs). I mentioned we were returning from celebrating my birthday with friends, and he wished me a happy birthday. And when I opened up our bag of wraps discovered a chocolate chip cookie had magically been added to the order. That was an unexpected personal gesture - and made me extra glad I'd tipped well!
We will happily return (and won't even...
Read moreThis place was beyond amazing, took me a solid 20 minutes to even pick out what to order, everything sounded delicious! I ended up with the Poppa G wrap and a poutine. The wrap was soo good, these people know what they are doing, they really are “wrap stars”!! Me being a poutine fanatic I can sometimes be hard to please but this had to have been the best poutine I’ve had in a long time!! Not to mention my lunch was easily enough to be lunch and dinner. With a friendly greeting, short wait time and an amazing meal I was already sold! I knew I would be coming back, and then I tried some baked goods and nearly lost it, the peach cookie was unlike anything I had ever seen before with such a beautiful presentation and a delightful taste I couldn’t wait to try the cannoli. When I did I was wishing I had bought a box filled to the brim with pastries!!
Very highly recommended! You guys are doing...
Read moreBuffalo wrap/Ceasar salad
The Buffalo wrap was a little bigger than a hot dog!
There was no traditional Buffalo flavoring, no spice, and the chicken was shredded??? Not a fan!
The actual Buffalo chicken wraps flavor was completely over ran by the weird flavor of the bread wrap itself!! Couldn't even finish it! Tasted like a premade gas station item!
I generally don't complain about hot food but $29.00 for that bread and shredded chicken pile! And the Ceasar salad!!!
The Ceasar salad was the best Ceasar Salad I've had in years! It was amazing! Very very good.
If they want to explore how to construct a delicious Buffalo wrap they should reach out to someone with a clue! It was sub par and I'll never try another wrap there!!! No Stars! The taste of the bread wrap was what will stop me from trying more! (Note) the shredded chicken was nice quality.
I would go back for the...
