A short history of Hoard's Cheese and Butter Factory; the site of Chubby's Country Restaurant: originally built in 1904, the cheddar factory started year round production in 1957 and closed in 1969. At its peak about 50 farmers were 'patrons',
supplying milk for cheese production. The Hoard's Cheese and Butter Co. made Stilton, a ten and 1/2 year cheddar. Households bought a large cheese and preserved it from mould by covering it with a cloth soaked in vinegar.

Dave F on 10-Apr-19

The service was great, the food was second to none, and the price is more than fair!!! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. The family who runs the restaurant are very humble and friendly, we just love it. This was our third visit, and they have been very consistent with their excellent menue!

Bob Moore on 10-Jun-18

Yesterday was the second time we went to Chubby's with our group of about 20 people. Once again, the food was wonderful: lots of salads to choose from, soup, roast beef, ribs, potatoes and veggies were delicious. And the assortment of desserts....been a long time since I have enjoyed REAL banana cream pie, with slices of real banana even. The service was great, helpful waitresses always on the go, keeping water glasses and coffee/tea cups full and used plates off the table. Even their well water tastes great.You have to eat here ! Looking forward to taking the family to Chubby's.

Brenda on 24-Jul-16

Nancy Johnston on 02-Jan-16

Once again we can't thank you folks enough for such a lovely time and delicious meal. Your servers were prompt as usual and it is a toss up as to which is the best the salad bar, the roast beef and chicken or the desserts. You have outdone yourselves again. Our 4th year in a row for New Years should tell you what a great job you are doing.

Beverley Henricks on 30-May-15

I had the pleasure of dining at Chubby's again tonight and the food and service are fantastic. Liz you make the best desserts I have every had. The roast beef was so tender you could cut it with a fork. Thanks for a wonderful meal

Nancy Johnston on 01-Jan-15

This was our 3rd New Years dinner at Chubby's and it is still an amazing meal out. The food is sooo good and the friendliness of the staff and owners just adds to the experience. Thank you once again for the great cooking and service.

Linda and Jon on 17-Dec-14

We had a wonderful family birthday celebration on December 7th. Food was amazing and the location perfect for family coming from Peterborough and Napanee. Staff were like part of the family before we left. Would love the recipe for the cherry jello salad yum yum!

Douglas K Vanderwater on 26-Oct-14

A great restaurant with a very well designed buffet with soup, salads and classical roast beef and other main dishes. The desserts are just to die for and the people operating the restaurant are just great. We are regular Sunday afternoon customers and enjoy the drive from Belleville to Chubbys! We never have had a bad experience eating at Chubbys but always have used their reservation service.

Peter on 18-Jul-14

I love this place! The food is fresh and of very nice quality with decent portion sizes, and there is lots to choose from. It's a really 'down home: atmosphere, very relaxed, very charming.

Pamela Bryce on 19-Nov-12

Liz

Gerry & Pat Stedman on 23-May-11

We had dinner there on Saturday May 21/11. The food was excellent and also the service. It's well worth the drive to Hoard's Station.

Brenda MacLellan on 13-May-11

I have had many memorable family get togethers at your establishment, Including mine and my brothers birthday celebration that we always had close together. He has been gone almost 2 years now, and yet I plan to spend yet another birthday there, since he enjoyed it so much. The food is so great, and the atmosphere is so inviting.Thanks for the memories.

Carie Mason on 17-Apr-11

Just made reservations for next weekend at Chubbys. We have certainly missed going there over the winter. It always feels like going home! The fact that the food is excellent goes without saying....we always feel like we are going to visit friends for dinner! See you Saturday. (Craving the lemon pie already)

J Moore on 13-Aug-10

The best!!!!! Best food, best service and best variety for the best price. Have had an excellent meal every time and we have been going there for many years!

My wife and I have been going to Chubby's while at the cottage with Family & Friends for the last 6-7 years. The food is to die for and the service is excellent. This coming weekend after the drive from Oshawa I look forward to another great meal at Chubby's!

Bernice & Bert den Hartog on 07-Feb-10

Since we found Chubby's it's been our regular place to go. Excellent homemade food and desserts to die for.No other restaurant can compare in the area as far as we're concerned.Waiting patiently for them to open again in March.

R and S Garrison on 24-Nov-09

Four of us had dinner at your place last Friday nite and it was delicious, of course we ate too much, and there was more we wanted to taste, but alas our tummies would hold just so much, The other couple with us were impressed as it was their first time there and we shall be back. Thank you

Bil Belnap on 20-Nov-09

Our monthly 'Dinner Out Group' has chosen to visit Chubby's for our season ending dining experience. This will be our fifth visit. Looking forward to the 'Taste of Heaven' dessert after almost filling up on the meat and potatoes and fresh salad. Always a great choice going to Chubby's. (I just can't stay away from the Horseradish) See you soon Bil (RONA D.O.G.)
