new lunch venue ?

buckhorn76 · Mar 18, 2015

peterborough council pulled the rug out from under cathy lindsay, the nice gal that runs the airport restaurant, and gave the contract to a toronto based catering company. nine people will lose their jobs with this deal. the city officials evidently don't practice what they preach in regard to buying local and supporting local businesses. this deal doesn't sit well with me. anybody else feel this way ? suggestions for our april lunch ? naturally when the nice weather arrives we can resume our picnics at " chez buckhorn " - should have the 4 post lift in by then too.

That's exactly how I feel too. I thoroughly enjoyed the airport restaurant and the ladies gave great service and were always friendly. Maybe I am a pessimist but I always wonder if money changes hands when things like this happen. The place always did a very good business so a lot of people must have liked going there. Too bad.

Mud Street ???

If Toronto wasn't in between us and you guys, I'd certainly be game to hit Mud Street.

Well I think I might be able to make a lunch "up north" this summer. Maybe drag along a few others

That would be great.

cathy lindsay will be re-opening the restaurant with the same menu and staff. the new location will be at the former denbar's steak house. slated to open around mid-may. good spot for our foul weather get togethers.

Keith Tedford · Mar 26, 2015

Might as well give our business to those who looked after us so well before. Here is their new location on Highway 28 south of the Peterborough bypass.
