The Ultimate Prince Edward County Foodie Guide
Let’s talk about the real star of the show—PEC’s food scene. From farm-to-table restaurants to artisanal cheese shops, this area has it all. You’ll find chefs who are passionate about using local ingredients, farmers who grow everything organically, and bakers who turn out fresh bread that’s still warm when you pick it up. If you love good food, PEC is what you're looking for!
You could spend an entire weekend just hopping between cafes, restaurants, and vineyards, and still feel like you’ve barely scratched the surface of what this culinary hotspot has to offer.
Of course, no trip to PEC would be complete without exploring its famous wineries. The region is home to over 40 wineries, each offering something unique. Spend the day sipping wine at a beautiful vineyard, and then head back to a cozy lakehouse with waterfront views, where you can uncork a bottle and watch the sunset from your own private deck. Speaking of which, our cottage is the perfect home base for your culinary adventure. Spacious, modern, and with plenty of room to gather around for meals or a late-night charcuterie board, it’s designed for relaxing after a long day of indulging.
And let’s not forget the local culture that makes PEC so special. Besides the wineries and restaurants, there are cool markets, art galleries, and food festivals to keep you busy between meals. Picking up fresh produce at a market and chatting with a local chef about the day's catch, there's a genuine connection between the community and the land that brings a special touch to every bite. Staying at the lakehouse means you’re just a short drive away from these experiences, but far enough removed to enjoy peaceful, uninterrupted views of the water.
So, why not make PEC your next foodie destination? Between the beautiful wineries, the unforgettable meals, and the natural beauty of the region, you're in for a treat. And when it comes to accommodation, our lakeside cottage provides the ultimate retreat. After a day spent exploring, you can kick back on the deck with a glass of local wine, or gather around the fire pit for a cozy evening under the stars. It’s everything you need for a perfect escape—because, let’s be honest, PEC is better when you have a comfortable, beautiful place to come home to.
