WE LOVE LOCAL. YOUR FARM TO TABLE HEADQUARTERS.

Now well into our third decade in business, Eddington’s attributes the restaurant’s success to creating flavorful and creative meals consistently using the best of Huron County’s bounty.
Owner James Eddington states “we are so blessed to be living in such an agriculturally rich area of the world”.
Although the local food movement is really starting to take off, it has always been the driving force in Eddington’s kitchen. A menu that changes frequently, as each season inspires the delicacies our region has to offer.
Eddington’s occupies the original Carling homestead (built in the 1870’s). After two major renovations, an addition of the a new dining room and a serene outdoor backyard summer patio, the restaurant has a clean and modern look while maintaining its traditional and warm feel.

    A fantastic dining experience! The patio is gorgeous, tables are nicely spaced from others, great service and the drinks, apps, meals, and desert were all outstanding. Mr eddington has created an oasis and complemented it with fabulous servers and wonderful food. Always such a treat to come to Eddingtons :)

    Picked by chance on our way thru town. Certainly not a $$ price point as per the website but totally worth it. All of our meals were excellent and our server took great care of us. Would eat here again for sure!

    It was so nice to be able to sit on the recently opened patio, enjoy great live music and be treated to a wonderful meal from the spring and summer menu. The service and ambiance were great, my seared trout was excellent and my wife’s lamb was amazing (her words).

    Food delish, menu lacking, very pricey...the room was blah...I was disappointed, as I was bringing family to see your lovely old house...the room was sterile...you need some decor. Your pay machine was also lacking...I had to calculate the tip myself...the waiter offered to do it for me, but then he would know how cheap or generous I am...I also would have tipped less, as the amount shown was after taxes, and I never tip on top of the tax...however, the food was excellent, which is really what's important. Your menu is too trendy...you need some comfort foods like meatloaf or chicken Ala king, plain foods for us old folks. I hope this is constructive criticism. Thanks.

    We celebrated Mother's Day with Eddington's Brunch. The options all sounded delicious, but we ended up with Seafood Crepes and Prime Rib Hash. So, so good! Everything was at the perfect temperature and very fresh. The portion sizes were excellent. For dessert, we enjoyed a rich Flourless Chocolate Cake and an amazing White Chocolate Lemon Cheesecake. There really isn't another restaurant like it in the region, from the ambiance to the service to the food. Outstanding meal. We will definitely be back.

    Amanda (our server) was excellent. Lunch was very tasty and presented very well. Menu has a good variety with daily specials - Crème Brielle is a must if not only for a coffee and dessert. Onion soup very hot (which is what it should be) and delicious. We will come back for dinner some evening.

    It is usually a nice lunch here but I believe I went at a bad time. Fries were old and fish seemed like it had been already cooked and they just warmed it up. Obviously i left most on the plate. I will go again and see if it was just a bad day for the cook..
