We came from Ottawa with our pup for Mother’s Day weekend and had the best time!
Everyone was so kind and welcoming. Almost every table had a doggy with them. All the dogs got along so well. It was truly the best brunch spot. Food was amazing and the place had the best vibes.
The pup menu was great as well, our Roo had the pupcake and loved it.
We will be back!

Absolutely magnificent experience for lovers of dogs and good food! Ruby Cafe is a very attractive restaurant and has amazing French-inspired cuisine, which makes it even more surprising that they allow dogs! The servers love dogs too, and will treat yours like gold! Best restaurant experience I've ever had with my dog!
