At Stoke's Inland, the order writes itself before anyone has finished reading the menu: Bay Nachos to anchor the table, a pound of wings to keep hands busy, and the back ribs once the group has settled in. This is a Sarnia bar-and-grill in the Mitton Village end of town, off Lambton Mall Road, built to do the thing a good neighbourhood spot does well — feed a mixed table without making anyone negotiate. The menu runs broad enough that a rib eater, a burger eater, and someone who only wanted a salad all land on the same page, which is most of what a group asks of a Tuesday dinner.
The ribs are the menu's centre of gravity. They come slow-cooked and finished with the kitchen's own sauce, and they carry a Ribfest reputation that gives an otherwise broad bar-and-grill one clear thing it is known for. Wings hold up the other side of that identity, ordered by the pound and run through a long sauce list, built for a table that wants to keep grazing while the game is on. Bay Nachos are the standard opening move — a full plate of seasoned beef, onions, tomatoes, cheese, salsa, and sour cream that lands fast and feeds several hands at once. From there the menu keeps widening: a Mammoth Burger and a Jack Daniel's burger, Rattlesnake Pasta, Belly-Buster Fish and Chips, a New York striploin, a Nashville fried chicken sandwich, even a teriyaki salmon udon bowl for the table that wandered away from the grill. Linda's Fried Chicken Parmigiana and a Triple Decker Turkey Club round out the comfort end, the kind of plates that keep regulars from ever quite exhausting the list.
The strongest food read is a familiar Sarnia bar-and-grill mix led by back ribs, wings, nachos, burgers, fish and chips, fajitas, and pasta.
