One place in Canada that never fails to disappoint One place in Canada that never fails to disappoint is Niagara Falls 😍

If you’re planning a trip to Niagara Falls in the summer, you’ll find it very overcrowded though 😅

I’d suggest booking your trip in September or October when there are less people and you don’t need to line up for the main attractions 💦

The autumn colours also make everything look even more impressive! 🍂

Have you travelled to Niagara Falls yet? 🇨🇦

It’s time for another quick stop in Elora - one of It’s time for another quick stop in Elora - one of Ontario’s prettiest towns 😍

Of course we had to stop at @thebadleyelora for lunch, which has just undergone a complete renovation 👀

The #1 rated restaurant in Elora and Fergus is now a very cool retro diner, complete with a brand new menu and a great selection of milkshakes to pair with your meal 🥤

To kick things off, I’d recommend trying:

Pickle Poppers
Hot Cauli’ Bites
The Big Dipper

And for your main, why not give one of these a try? ⬇️

Retro Reuben
Broadway Strip
Grilled Cheese

Make sure you order one of their milkshakes (or two) to make your dining experience in Elora even more memorable 😮‍💨

Would you dine at this restaurant in Elora, Ontario? 🇨🇦
