Quatrefoil is an amazing restaurant. It's a French-style bistro/restaurant just outside of Hamilton's downtown core.

If you are looking for a great time in Hamilton, it's time to pay a visit to The French.

It's located at the heart of the city and is highly awarded for its food, service and atmosphere.

The service is flawless and the food is so delicious. Their avocado toast and salads are so good, plus their main brunch courses are very flavourful and delicious.

The food is fresh and made at the spot which is what I love about this place. It’s a cute spot to go with a friend and catch up over brunch.
