Summer waterfront restaurant opens in Oakville
Those looking for a summer dinner with a great view onto Lake Ontario have a new option.
The Bronte Boathouse will be serving up food, drink and ice cream during the summer months. The restaurant’s goal is to offer a relaxed and casual atmosphere and serve as a summer hotspot. It plays on its waterfront location in both its name and décor, with decorations such as miniature boats, anchors, and piers.
The restaurant aims to be a seasonal affair, operating from May to September each year and closing for the winter months. Such a strategy lowers cost, but could risk breaking customer habits and fading from memory, so many seasonal joints use marketing tools like flyer printing, social media, and promotional products in the spring to build excitement towards their reopening. Bronte Boathouse furthers its summer theme with an outdoor patio, ice cream store, and tiki bar.
Bronte Boathouse officially opened on June 28 at 2340 Ontario Street. The menu features beachside favourites like fish and chips and oysters, as well as more health-conscious options like beef and broccoli or the lunchtime “power bowl”. The restaurant could also serve as a venue for live music, as signified by a live performance by Joseph Rebello on Canada Day. If successful, it is hoped that the Bronte Boathouse could become a summertime tradition in Oakville.
