The Back Kitchen is back for another fantastic season on Amherst Island! Located just a short walk from the ferry dock at 5660 Front Road in Stella, this welcoming, volunteer-led, non-profit restaurant has become a favourite gathering place for both residents and visitors.
As the island’s only restaurant, The Back Kitchen plays an important role in the community, offering a warm, family-friendly atmosphere and delicious homemade meals. The menu features crowd-pleasing burgers, sandwiches and weekly specials, while those with a sweet tooth can enjoy scoop ice cream or a fresh cup of coffee brewed with beans from Amherst Island Coffee Company.
Known as “Where Amherst Island Meets to Eat,” The Back Kitchen is much more than a restaurant. It’s a place to connect, relax and experience the island’s strong sense of community. They're currently open Thursday through Sunday, with expanded summer hours coming soon.
Whether you're spending the day exploring Amherst Island or catching the ferry home, it's the perfect place to stop for a meal. Find out more... https://naturallyla.ca/local/business_listings/the-back-kitchen/
