Out & About #461 | Spencer's at the Waterfront

6/17/2018

 
​Spencer's is one of those places that our family has visited to such a frequency that our seasonal/annual trips are no longer deemed foreign.
Little did I know that relevant recounts of these excursions had not been previously documented on this space.

​Adopting the format of a 3-in-1 celebration - with one of them being Father's Day, of course - we set off early the next day for brunch.

Spencer's had apparently undergone renovations some one or two years ago. Tables had been rearranged to allow for roomier, comfier seating, while the buffet layout had also been modified to include a more expansive selection of items. Access paths were also made wider in order to accommodate higher volumes of traffic.

Personal favourites were the cheese board (unlimited Brie!!), waffle and crêpe station, and perfectly proportioned mimosas. 
Grapefruit juice, orange juice, and iced tea were available at the self-serve section of the bar, but alcoholic beverages such as mimosas and champagne involved a call to the table's respective member of waitstaff.

​Quite frankly, I've never departed Spencer's disappointed. There are undeniably some offering that are less suitable for my palate - namely perogies, spicy dishes, shellfish, macarons, and the like - yet opting to steer clear of these picks is due to varying preferences, and not as a consequence of inadequate quality.

​The atmosphere is wonderful with bountiful illumination and a breathtaking view of Lakeshore.
Washrooms are also well maintained in spite of the heavy traffic flow. I have yet to witness a lack of toiletries ever, and the napkin-like paper towels positioned near the sink are much more effective than the average brown paper towel.

​This visit's highlights consisted of mind-blowing fried chicken, refreshing mimosas, crispy strips of bacon, a warm, flaky slice of spinach-and-cheese quiche, and top-notch service.
Upon learning of my recent liberation from academia, a platter bearing a chocolate "Congratulations and lemon coconut tart made its way over some short while later. Our waitress had been patient and attentive during our stay, and the genuine gesture only further added to our content.

​We may not venture to the Burlington waterfront very often, though Spencer's generally assumes our primary point of attraction when we do invest in the drive. There's a clear reason for this.
