They had their first date in this beautiful provincial park, where Kory invited Lauren to 'count cottages'. Although he walked 8 feet in front of her the entire time, they bonded over their sense of humour and mutual weirdness. The location of Kory's family cottage & our frequent haunt in the summers.
The spot of their second date - where Lauren let out her teacher voice, and Kory wasn't scared away (?). They offer any combination of ice cream that you can imagine. The perfect spot on the hottest of summer days.
Locale of their third date - a beautiful day on the beach. This is the one that sealed the deal.
One of our favourite local breweries!
Both great beer and great food, in the heart of Chatham. Very close to the Retro Suites.
For the Lambton side of things, this brewery has it going on.
Grab a Long Pond Lager and enjoy on their beautiful patio overlooking Rondeau Bay.
This beautiful orchard features on-site cider tastings and a beautiful property to explore.
One of the most instagrammable, cool places to grab a beverage in great weather.
Right around the corner from our house is Centro! The best spot for wood fired pizza.
Sit bayside and watch the turtles (with a nice cold beer)!
Another Erieau favourite for seafood and good company!
Fresh, flavourful Mexican food. Can you take on the Man vs Taco challenge?
We highly recommend the Spring Rolls & Bangkok Ginger Beef - but everything on the menu is made fresh and tastes phenomenal.
For easy, no fuss pub food and cold local beer, Mike's is the place to go!
This beautiful hotel in downtown Chatham also includes the Chilled Cork restaurant.
This board game cafe and bookstore is one of our favourite spots to meet friends. They serve a great range of local beer and make killer sandwiches!
From picking a huge variety of freshly grown blueberries to shopping and delicious treats, Parks has all you could ever want in terms of a local family farm.
