Below, we’ve listed some of our favourite food spots in Sault Ste Marie to satisfy your munchies without breaking the bank.

Burger Don

If you’re craving a juicy burger, this is where you want to go. They’re known for their specialty burgers, but if you prefer you can also build your own from a long list of options. They also serve up gourmet hot dogs, fresh tacos, spiked milkshakes, and more. If you’re looking to quench your thirst, they also have a selection of craft beers to wash down that hamburger. If you’re really high, we really recommend the Doughnut Burger (it is exactly what you think it is).

The Breakfast Pig

This laid-back breakfast spot is a great place to grab some eggs and bacon after a session with your friends. Everything on the menu is delicious, but you can’t go wrong with the Mother Clucker (fried chicken & waffle benny with hollandaise and Frank’s Red Hot). If that doesn’t pique your interest, try out the breakfast poutine or the bacon cheddar waffles, or both. There’s also a tantalizing selection of crepe, pancake, and French toast creations to choose from, including seasonal flavours like candy cane or pumpkin spice. This spot will quickly become your wake & bake go-to for breakfast munchies.

Address: 265 Bruce St., Sault Ste. Marie, ON P6B 1P5

Tandoori Gardan

Sometimes you’re in the mood to mix it up from the usual North American comfort food. Few cuisines offer the flavour explosion that Indian food does, and this downtown spot is full of delicious dishes. Often described as a hidden gem, they offer all of the Indian fare you know and love. Once the smell of that chicken tikka masala sauce hits your nostrils, you’ll be lost in the sauce. Make sure you get high before you eat because you won’t want to put your food down once you start.
