Looking for a good meal?
Came back from NYC looking for a pizza slice just as good, and the place went above and beyond my expectations. Best pizza ever!
Pizzamunno Artisanal Pizza
My favourite fine-dining spot and steak & seafood that’s to die for!
The Lake Grill
I’ve been travelling downtown just to buy but they recently opened one in Pickering! The chicken is so tender and so many spice levels to choose from.
Dave's Hot Chicken
Cook it yourself, around 50$ per person but it’s all you can eat AND high quality meat. Also unlimited crème brûlée ✌️
Yakyoto - Japanese Grill & Bar
I recommend going on Taco Tuesday but the burgers and chicken is great too! Be careful ordering large orders online though they tend to mess up 😓
Butchie's Restaurant
Authentic mexican food with the best tacos, nachos, and churros.
Dos Coronas
The pizza is delicious and the pasta is also amazing 😍 The head chef just moved here from Italy
468F Wood Fired Pizza
If you’re looking for real authentic caribbean food, this is the spot!
Yardies Caribbean Cuisine
Best brunch spot in Durham, the scones are warm and delicious, I recommend the cinnamon waffles!
The FART (Food & Art) Cafe
Dessert
Sweet Treats🍦
SO many options and HUGE portions. My favourite!
D Spot Dessert Café
If you’re looking for the BEST baklava, come here! Best I’ve ever had. They also have the famous dubai chocolate bars too!
Kunafas
Best doughnuts I’ve ever had. Honestly they’re not super sugary and great flavour options.
Crave Doughnuts
The most aesthetic cafe in Whitby with the best matcha for the matcha lovers 🍵
M & L Motors Cafe
Calm and warm environment with a huge variety drinks and delicious sweet treats (try the banana pudding)
The Souk
Many locations and high quality desserts, portions and the best milkshakes 🤤
Demetres Desserts
Coffee, Ice Cream, (the best) Baklava, Crepes, and more, this is a hidden gem with the friendliest staff and huge portions. The customer service is above and beyond from the minute you step inside! ❤️
SPRINKLES & DIP (@sprinklesanddip)
Right next door to Crave Donuts so I recommend getting both! This is a filipino dessert that’s so good I went back the next day
Tito Parley's
The BEST pastries. The chocolate butter tart is the best dessert I’ve ever had!
