Sault Ste. Marie Culinary Adventures

There are different ways to explore a new city to learn about its history, heritage, and hidden gems and to chat with the locals. A walking tour is a great way to grow your knowledge in a short amount of time, meet new people, and meet the locals – and you didn’t have to plan a single thing!

Join Blaq Bear Adventures to explore downtown Sault Ste. Marie where you’ll sample tasty bits and bites, paired with a local craft beer, or tastings based on grapes. Whether a resident or a visitor, you’ll enjoy exploring the city’s historic downtown and waterfront.

There’s a food scene happening in Sault Ste. Marie. And it’s one of those little secrets that only the locals know. The city has always been renowned for its Italian food and pizza, but you’ll find a world of flavours inspired by countries from around the world. And new twists on old favourites.

Visitors and residents can enjoy meals in a variety of atmospheres too; fine dining experiences, a local café, cozy diners, full-size restaurants, and in summer, outdoor patios. What you’ll also find about these eateries is that nearly all are family owned and operated. Some are even generational, run by families who are passionate about the food they make and the customers they serve.

Listen to interesting facts about the local heritage and culture of the area, and what kinds of foods and flavours are distinct to Algoma. Experience first-hand to savour the tastes at one-of-a-kind restaurants and eateries, or what locally grown products make up the meal. You might even learn a secret family recipe, or two.

A Taste of Sault Ste. Marie

Most walking tours begin at the Sault Ste. Marie Museum, a landmark building in the city that once housed the post office. From the museum, enjoy a stroll down Queen Street to sample some of the city’s fine dining options paired with wine or beer. The tour ends at The Machine Shop, in the Canal District.
