Great weekend fun place to spend time at. Fresh local produce and vendors, reasonably priced and authentic atmosphere make you want to come back. Perfect for Saskatoon berry pies and deli meats, cafe by the entrance is also very goo with fresh and tasty sandwiches and coffee. Cozy and fun in winter too. There are ice sculptures presented by Potash Corp. Great place for a visit, close to downtown and on the way of Meewasin trail, so a good place to stop for a coffee and a dessert.

My cousin and I meet up for lunch. McNally Robinson, never been, she said it was good. Restaurant attached to a book store. This should be interesting. Well the restaurant is actually called “Prairie Ink”. Greeting and seating well done. Menu is very interesting with a great selection. The atmosphere is classy casual. I ended up getting WARM LENTIL & ROASTED BEET The menu states it’s a: “Mixture of lentils, chickpeas, onions, apricots and white wine, topped with beets, goat cheese, balsamic vinaigrette and arugula.” W O W I’d go back just to have this again, and I’m not that crazy for apricots, it was that good. Cousin had the same but switched out the goat cheese for blue cheese. The desert case O M G. The selection, display and all around choices made it hard to pass up but had to, the lentils and beets was a very nice sized serving and left little room for desert. The place easy to find, use the west side doors to enter and enjoy. Thanks McNallys ya did great.
