Early Morning Grab & Go
Justine commuted out of Grand Valley for years and could never find a decent coffee and breakfast that early. So we built one.
Freshly baked bagels, a cooked egg and melted cheddar — with ham, bacon, sausage or thick-cut peameal. Grab one with a fresh coffee and you are out the door.
Served until around 10:30 a.m., or until they sell out. They usually sell out.

47 Main Street South
Built in 1870.
Built in 1870.
Reborn in 2026.
Hugh Galbraith put this building up in 1870. It is the oldest standing building in Grand Valley, and for most of its life it has been feeding people — a dairy, then a dairy bar, then a restaurant, then Marie's Village Inn.
Then it sat empty. Joshua and Justine Tuck took possession one day after their son was born, and spent months of fourteen-hour days bringing it back — with help from tradespeople, retirees and neighbours who simply turned up.

Joshua & Justine Tuck
A Family, and a Main Street Worth Saving
The Tucks had only lived in Grand Valley a few years when they decided this building was worth rescuing. The goal was never just to run a restaurant — it was to give people a reason to come downtown, the way they do in Elora or Hockley Valley.
The restoration became a community project, and the welcome since opening has been bigger than anything they expected.
