Italian restaurant in a 19th-century hotel in Port Hope.
Port Hope is the kind of town that rewards small detours. From the moment you turn off the 401, the river winds you into a downtown that feels half a century out of step with the rest of Ontario — in the best possible way.
On the menu
Locally roasted coffee, salmon from the Ganaraska, pickles from the Saturday market and a slow-cooked dinner that pairs with anything from the brewery down the street.
Make a weekend of it
Pair this stop with a heritage walking tour, a paddle off East Beach and an evening show at the Capitol Theatre. Reservations recommended on summer weekends.
