😂 We see this conversation happen a lot...

"We've been meaning to visit the museum again!"

"Oh really? When was the last time you were here?"

"...Grade 6."

No judgment! But if your last visit involved a permission slip and a packed lunch, it might be time for another trip underground. ⛏️

Trust us, a lot has changed since then.

It's official... The Wheelhouse Cafe opens one week from today, Thursday June 25! 🎉

We put a lot of love into refreshing our menu last year and we've kept the best of it, including the fish and chips that keep people coming back. We have a few new additions this year too, so there's lots to look forward to!

Come find us at the Grand Narrows Waterfront. See you June 25! ☀️🍦
