The Old Country Restaurant — Restaurant in Wilmot

I have to say I’m really impressed! They recently changed owners, and let’s be honest, when it’s a good restaurant that can be rather scary. Luckily they’ve kept the good and improved in many areas! The menu has extended and has added a few new items. Today we got the spinach dip, which did have a bit too much grease but flavour was great! We followed with fries pickles, which were fantastic! I got a hot chicken sandwich which was pretty darn good! I would have loved more spice as Nashville chicken sandwiches should have, but it was well balanced and flavourful. My mom got the buffalo chicken Cesar wrap. It was a staple before, and will stay a staple for years to come! Basic, sure, but it’s classic for a reason. I am knocking a star however as it is NOT accessible. Especially the bathrooms. We have family who could not join. In 2022 that’s rather disappointing and I hope to see...

First time coming here since the new owners, disappointed. Firstly the atmosphere would be greatly improved just by using warm lights, the white cinder walls and dim cold blue lighting lends to a very clinical and uncomfortable environment, atleast the old pictures of the town are still up, always interesting to look at. Second is the service, everyone we interacted with was polite and helpful, however having to wait 45 minutes for 2 orders of the basic breakfast is ridiculous especially in a half empty restaurant at 10:30. Lastly the food, not much to say, sausage, home frys, and toast were good, but I ordered eggs over medium and got an undercooked sunny side up, runny egg whites is not a good look. I don't know if we just fell through the cracks, but from our experience you need to step up your game....

I was in New Hamburg as part of a film crew a couple weeks ago, and Old Country Restaurant became my go-to spot for meals. I was there for 6 days, so I had the opportunity to try several of the things on their menu and loved every one! The Monte Cristo would be my #1 fav, closely followed by the BLT with peameal. I wish I could have tried everything on the menu, but there were too many options and not enough time! The staff were fantastic, too. I ordered breakfast one morning and the server gave me extra napkins because she knew I was going to be sitting/eating in my car all day and might need them. It's little things like that that really made my day and made the restaurant stand out. I will be making a day trip back to New Hamburg this summer, and eating here will be one of the top...
