Where Jaida's Orillia Food Industry career began! Built around a wood-fired grill, the Common Stove was recently listed as a top 100 restaurant in Canada on OpenTable. Make a reservation for dinner Friday night or brunch Sunday morning!
One of our favourite spots even before Jaida started working here! PICNIC is a Spanish style tapas bar with great food, amazing drinks and perfect vibes. Absolutely one of our top date night spots. Book for lunch or dinner, or check out the shop at the back if you're taking a wander through downtown.
A good old British Pub and probably Pat's favourite of the three Common Hospitality establishments. Grab a pint on the patio or some Fish & Chips for lunch. It's Pat's favourite burger in town!
The Orillia waterfront is one of our favourite things about the city - Ollie especially loves it. Take a walk down the waterfront trail or post up at the beach to have a quick dip pre- or post-wedding!
One of two of our favourite coffee shops. They have great coffee and also do late night cocktails Friday and Saturday nights!
The other go to coffee shop in town. The decor is awesome and it's only a block from our house!
We spend a lot of money here. The bagels are made fresh daily and it is a convenient two block walk from our house... it's dangerous.
You can't come to Orillia and not go to Mariposa Market. Buy some baked goods for home or grab our absolute favourite sandwich - Maple Ham & Chedder on a croissant.
Saturday morning from 9am-1pm, the Orillia Farmers Market is small but mighthy. Be sure to check out Kindred Chocolates at the market - she makes a Lemon Blueberry Croissant that is one of the best things to ever exist.
