If you've been looking for a reason to make the drive to Innisfil, this is it. Taste of Friday Harbour runs May 1 to 15, and it's shaping up to be a pretty great way to kick off spring.
The event is a reimagined culinary and retail experience along the Promenade, with prix-fixe menus, seasonal specials, and limited-time offers at some of the resort's best spots. Think lakeside dining, marina views, and a relaxed spring afternoon with somewhere new to explore.

More to explore this spring
Taste of Friday Harbour also marks the start of the resort's spring and summer season. That means the CIBC Pier, the Market, the Marina, the Nest, and a variety of recreational offerings are all coming back online. It's a good time to visit if you want to see the resort at its best before the summer crowds arrive.
Don't miss Mother's Day brunch
If you're planning something special for Mom on May 11, Friday Harbour has you covered. Lake Club Restaurant is hosting a Mother's Day Brunch Buffet featuring breakfast favourites, chef-led stations, fresh seafood, and seasonal desserts. Optional bottomless mimosas and Caesars are available, because of course they are.
Reservations are recommended — this one tends to fill up.
