About Us

A message from our staff

At The Shire, what you experience on your plate and at your table is the result of a team that genuinely cares.

Many of us have been here for years. We have grown with this restaurant, with our guests, and with the Simcoe community. We do not just work here, we take pride in what we do, in how we treat people, and in the consistency and quality that guests have come to expect from The Shire.

Behind every breakfast, every coffee, and every smile is a team that shows up early, works hard, and looks out for one another. Whether you are a regular who visits every week or someone walking through our doors for the first time, you are treated with the same respect and attention.

We believe great food matters, but great service and honest hospitality matter just as much. We are grateful to be part of your mornings, your family meals, and your everyday routines.

Thank you for choosing The Shire. We look forward to serving you.
