The Black Goose [Winner]

Opened in 2012, the Black Goose Grill has served our community with excellent customer service, cleanliness and great comfort food. They treat their customers like their own family and as a result, they have become a staple restaurant within the community. With various food programs such as Food Rescue, Frontline Fridays, Community Living Boxed Lunch, and their annual Salvation Army Luncheon, they have served the community on a large scale. More recently, the Black Goose made an effort to help those within the Wallaceburg area by turning the Goose into a soup kitchen and serving over 20,000 meals to those in need. Last year the Black Goose marked 50 years of continued service to the town of Wallaceburg by the Childs family, and their legacy is likely to continue with generations to come.
