VQA Recognition
VQA Award Presented To The Briars Recognition For A Continuing Tradition Of Excellence
Jackson's Point, Lake Simcoe - The Briars has the prestigious honour of receiving The 2008 Vintner’s Quality Alliance Restaurant Award of Excellence from the Wine Council of Ontario, in recognition of exceptional VQA wine and culinary experience. In fact, over 60% of the current wine list at The Briars consists of some of the finest wines Ontario has to offer. Naturally it’s important to pair great wine with great food.
In keeping with this theme, Executive Chef, Trevor Ledlie, prepares nothing but the finest of meals with an accent on ingredients from local Ontario and Canadian farmers. Ledlie also uses fresh products grown in the Briars own organic garden. The Briars firmly believe that nothing is more satisfying than home-grown harvests. A quick look at www.briars.ca, reveals a fresh summer menu and wine list.
The peaceful Lake Simcoe shoreline is the ideal setting for seeking refuge from the hustle and bustle of busy life. There’s a little something for everyone. After a stellar meal many guests enjoy summer evenings at The Red Barn Theatre. The recently upgraded Kids Club program, with new mascot Nutty The Squirrel, will keep little ones engaged in wholesome activities while parents relax and explore.
The Briars estate can easily cater to large events such as family or class reunions, church retreats, anniversary parties and company socials with a winning combination of facilities, accommodations, dining and access to The Briars Golf Club. The historic buildings, full-service spa and other comforts become your personal haven of relaxation, warmth and joy.
Conveniently located an hour’s drive north of Toronto, a retreat to this premier Ontario destination is especially attractive in these days of soaring gas prices.
“Winning the VQA award adds to the glowing reputation of this lakeside resort with a 160- year-old tradition of hospitality and excellence.” – Hugh Sibbald, Vice President, The Briars Resort & Spa.
