Reviews of Fritters on the Lake (Fruit Store)

Lesley Riedstra

Soooo good! Made fresh and hot while we waited, worth every minute!

Tiffany Meier

Fabulous fritters! A must have while visiting NOTL. The owners are genuinely friendly and welcoming.

Franco Andreatta

O my. Delicious ????

Jay Lim

These fritters were paramount in helping quit my tabasco addiction. I have slowly but surely replaced a pack a day with a delish half dozen fritters a day. Best life decision so far.

Michael Di Paolo

You absolutely HAVE to try these apple fritters! They’re warm, fresh, and delicious. You can get them covered in caramel or with ice cream too! Plus, the owners are super nice and will give you a warm welcome :) I can’t wait to visit Niagara on the Lake again so I can get more of these amazing fritters!

Ray Burns

Best fritters ever!

Nicholas Singer

Ordered the double fritter (2) and got 3! Great service made fresh to order

What a lovely addition to NOTL! This was our first time trying the fritters, and not only were they absolutely delicious, but the customer service was amazing! When the owner found out that this was our first time trying, she made us fresh fritters, and even threw in some extra because it was my daughter's graduation. The nicest people ever. Definitely will be back.

Connie Holden

Unbelievably delicious, fresh apple fritters. These aren't like a fast food chain fritter...SO good. Very kind, personable staff were great with our kids and even gave them free fritters and ice cream with caramel and chocolate on top. A must visit shoppe in NOTL

Rob Wilson

So good!

Tarek Yassine

Not what I was expecting based on all of the images I saw but excellent service and a delicious treat. Home made quality right in front of your very eyes. A nice NOTL treat!

Tiana Gagic

A must at NOTL! The most delicious, apple-filled fritters. The apple to dough ratio is high - just how I like ‘em. They are made fresh on order, so fluffy, so delicious. I got the standard half dozen. The place is owned by a cute local family, so friendly and so warm. It will be my go-to every time i’m in NOTL.

Han Dang

A hidden gem! The owners are so sweet and the fritters are delicious, and we got them hot and fresh. You haven't had an apple fritter until you've come here. I'll probably have dreams about this place.

arvin sachdev

Delicious Fritters ever. So glad that we brought a dozen home to enjoy next day and they tasted even better. The older gentleman gave me oven instruction and sure worked out great. A MUST FRITTERS TO TRY. The staff is amazing welcoming and they make the yummiest apple Fritter which tastes delicious when warm with Vanilla Ice cream. We will recommend all our friends to sure drop by to try the fritters and bring it back by a dozen for us :)

Jacquelyn King

Stopped in for the 2nd time yesterday. Picked up a dozen to take home and share. Absolute perfection again! Would love to see them venture out with some other fruits. Local peaches would make amazing fritters!

Nirvana Np

delicious fritters and amazing customer service!

Malika Hyder

My family and I have never had fritters before but these are just WOW. These fritters are amazing and the owners are the sweetest. I will definitely be coming back.

Joanne Martino

Fantastic, friendly and fabulous place....fritters are delightful????

Lily Slater

If I could give them a million stars I would. Product is fantastic and service is beyond compare. Great little place that makes you feel like you're at home and part of the family. I encourage everyone to go say hello, grab a few fritters and enjoy yourself in NOTL. You won't be disappointed.

Jason R.

Forget the wine tours. My first stop heading in and last stop heading out of Niagara On The Lake from now on is here.. Absolutely delicious. My only regret is not buying more!!!

Vern Hibbard

My wife and I shared 6 fritters. It worked out there were nine. This was lunch. Hot right out of the grease. Excellent taste and real friendly staff!!!!! We'll definitely be back, not sure when, because Welland is a fair poke from NOTL.

Dan Sabourin

Tiny kitchen serving up hot apple pastries. Get a dozen with caramel sauce, you'll be glad you did.

Lac-Hong Phi

Incredible fritters, especially when fresh... Can't describe them accurately. A little crispy on the edges with this wonderful chew inside. I've been a fan of pocket-style fritters (from the Fritter Shop in St. Thomas, ON) for a while now, which these are NOT. This was such a lovely change... Hvala, Zoran!!!

Nora the Food Explora

You know when you visit a new area and you try a random spot that ends up being the highlight of your day? If not, you need to visit Niagara on the Lakes & stop by @fritters_on_the_lake ???? A warm soft hug for the tummy in this cold weather ????

Mike Arthur

OMG! Incredible!!! Hot & fresh, made to order. Best apple fritter I’ve ever had! Super friendly staff. A must!!! We WILL be back.

Dana Samlal

After seeing some videos online I just had to visit this place. Fritters on the Lake, you did not disappoint...you were yummy! This was a big treat and we got a dozen because there was a group of us and we got the three flavors for the toppings...Maple, Caramel and Chocolate. They were all tasty, but my favorite is the Caramel. The line moves fast and the donuts are made fresh ????

Corrine Janzen

This was the most amazing little shop! The service made you feel like you were family and the fritters were absolutely delicious. This will be a must stop everytime I visit! Well worth the trip from Alberta!

Taylor Williams

Saw this on TickTock and went out of our way to come and try it. Beyond friendly staff! The lady who works in the kitchen actually offered me a complementary fritter while I was waiting for my order. A couple suggestions; maybe try a local ice cream instead of a value brand, and reconsider the price of the “lake special”. The night before I got a funnel cake (4 x the size) for $12 over on Clifton Hill. Overall if you’re in the area it’s a must try!

Rayson Ho

Fresh fritters can’t go wrong.. you know they serve quality when you see crowd on a lazy Monday morning.. definitely worth a try

RENE ROMERO

This Place lives up the the hype! Friendly Staff , We Bought a Dozen Fritters & they were delicious. While we were waiting they gave me 2 kids 1 each to try! We put the left overs in the Fridge and they were even better cold with some Caramel Sauce !!

Alykhan Jadavji

Delicious and great service thanks for the sample while we waited made our daughters day!

Rawan

Absolutely speechless. The fritters are so tasty and fresh. We got a dozen fritters and the lake special with caramel sauce. We ate the lake special so fast on the little patio they have. It was so good I kept wanting more but the portion was great. 3 fritters and vanilla ice cream. The caramel on top was just perfect, I really recommend it. And recommend coming here in general. The patio, although small, is very cute and perfect for a quick eat. The owners are also very kind. It’s a perfect local business to support!!

Matthew Martin

Really good and fresh.

Mike Last

Fritters were absolutely amazing!! Staff was super friendly and the shop is so cute. As if there wasn't enough places to visit in NOTL, this just adds to the list!!

Tyler B

The Apple Fritters were absolutely amazing, definitely suggest this place.

Sharmishta Roy

Lady in the shop saw I was pregnant and gave me 3 fritters with vanilla ice cream on the house! It was such a sweet gesture really made my day! Made my baby happy too I think ☺️ absolutely delicious must have

Theo

I have never tasted a desert so delicious like this one! Bought a dozen (somehow there was one extra - lucky me!) and it was gone before taking a pic. Also, whoever owns this place and the workers know their stuff.

Justin Harris

Very tasty apple fritters and friendly service.

Kevin Lin

You haven’t really had an Apple fritter until you’ve come here! Delicious and well worth the visit!

Wayne Harvey

So good. A must stop if you are visiting NOTL. I have been here so many times. Always made fresh. Right next to Balzac Coffee

DeeZzo

Awesome place, the people are sweet and very kind. Apple fritters are delicious but you also have to get the Lake Special.

Emily K

Amazing customer service from the lovely couple working this morning! The fritters are freshly made and you can really taste the apple in them! They melt in your mouth but still have a nice outter crisp with brown sugar and cinnamon! I would definitely get a little drizzle of caramel on top if you have a sweet tooth! They also have a super cute little patio if you're able to get a seat!

James Chan

Tasty and amazing. Worth visiting for sure!

Franco Du Preez

Delicious fritters and top notch service!

Katrina Denby

Finally made it to Fritters on the Lake this weekend. They were amazing. Don't hesitate to go in and order. Great Fritters and amazing customer service. I know, I'll return.

Pantea Ahmadi

The best. You should go there and enjoy their fantastic fritters. I will go there again and again

Nicole Kristen

These were the best apple fritters my boyfriend and I have ever had. THE BEST. I am drooling thinking about it. The owners were a WONDERFUL, KIND, WARM-HEARTED family, they even offered us free samples to try and we were more than happy to come back and order. The patio was very cute and no bees. The ice cream on the apple fritters was also incredible. I got maple syrup on the side.

Natasha Fermo

I didn't know apple fritters could taste this good! So delicious and warm ☺️ Thanks to the owner for the kindess of letting us have extra fritters because it was the end of the day and they had some left over. Such a treat!

Ethan Carrier

This was my first time ever having fritters. I wasn’t sure what to expect. But wow they were delicious. When I opened the container, I was surprised with three huge delicious fritters. I had mine topped with ice cream and and caramel ???????? They were honestly so amazing. I will definitely be returning. I had the pleasure of speaking with the owner and his daughter, while we waited. Wonderful people, very friendly. Definitely worth a visit

Ryan Heffron

Phenomenal fritters! Mostly apple, fresh, hot and the caramel glaze is to die for!! 5+ stars for the little shop in NOTL!

Jane Healy

A bit hard to find as it's around the corner from the Main Street in historic Niagara-on-the-Lake, this place is well worth the hunt. Fritters are freshly fried and should be eaten immediately for the best experience. And oh, are they yummy! Freshly sliced local apples embedded in a darkly fried, doughnuty (but light!) shell, these wonders are not too sweet. The cinnamon sugar coating provides a sandy-delicious finish that is hard to beat. [note: review edited to update info on the source of the apple!]

Wendy Aubertin

Fantastic fritters with great customer service

gale wilson

Excellent

Wendy Johnson

Our dreary drive to NOTL was so worthwhile. We went to this little piece of heaven and met two of the nicest people ever. The owners were working away We stayed about 15 minutes while she prepared 12 of the best fritters I have ever tasted. They were beyond kind and engaging us in conversation. My heritage being Ukrainian, we talked About our parents and grandparents working hard in the kitchen to create delicious hearty food . These did not disappoint. What a wonderful highlight to a damp dreary day. We will definitely be back Thank you, Wendy(fellow nurse) and Shane

Elliot S

Not sure what's sweeter, the fritters or the couple who own the place! Amazing fritters!

Absolutely delicious

Theresa L

Friendly staff and the most delicious apple fritters ever! We had bought a huge box during the day which we couldn't finish - reheated the rest for the evening in the oven and they were still just as scrumptious. My family and I have gotten a box almost each day we were at NOTL for the weekend. Love this place!

David Taylor

Always great

Andrea McKittrick

THESE FRITTERS ARE SO GOOD! You really taste the apple and they are the perfect size to snack on yourself or share!! Will 100% be back. Make sure to get caramel sauce on top!!

Jen Festin

New business just opened in downtown, steps from the lake. Kind staff, fritters are absolutely heavenly ❤️

These were delicious, never had fritters like this before but was impressed. They make them fresh to order and so they were nice and hot. They are not overly sweet either which is really nice.

Fritters were great! We had ours with maple syrup sauce. Not too sweet. Real apple inside, a little creamy too when you bite into it, but crisp texture on the outside. The people in the cashier were very friendly. The nice lady even gave us an extra fritter to try. Worth visiting every time you’re in notl. We’ll definitely be back :)

Fantastic apple fritters, absolutely delicious. The owners seem to be genuinely nice and warm people.This place is a must when visiting Niagara on the lake

Glenda Hall

A great spot. I especially love the lake special! The staff are certainly kind and it will be a place I take visitors.

Liam McDonald

The other reviews don't lie - this place is incredible and a must stop if you're in the area. Hands down the best apple fritters I have ever had by a factor of 10. We got the double fritters without toppings and they gave us an extra! The apple fritters are made of actual circles of apple, with some kind of batter and sugary coating. I savoured every bite! I loved them as they were, though I'm sure the toppings are amazing if you have a sweet tooth.

Whitney Suta

Was amazing, delicious and excellent customer service

Brandon McIntyre

Best fritters by far. Drove 2.5 hours to try some and was not disappointed. The owners were very kind and very generous

Shantal Viviers

So delicious and very friendly, personable staff! While waiting in line, I asked how big the fritters were, and they were kind enough to let me see (and eat one!) for free. Family run, and very cute store. Will be back all summer long!!
