Pop Up Picnic helping showcase city’s ‘diverse culinary scene’

An initiative is underway to help you enjoy the flavours of North Bay surrounded by some of the city’s scenic views.

It’s called the Pop Up Picnic and involves specially curated picnic meals from six local food partners.

They include:

  • Amritsari Bites (1260 Algonquin Ave)
  • Blendz Smoothie & Juice Bar (319 Algonquin Ave)
  • Cecil’s Brewhouse + Kitchen (300 Wyld St)
  • Green Fox Kitchen (17 Mapleridge Dr)
  • Opera Bakery + Café (164 Main St W)
  • Tahini’s (1720 Algonquin Ave)

“The Pop Up Picnic series is part of our new ‘Taste The Bay’ initiative, developed to showcase and grow North Bay’s diverse culinary scene,” says Tanya Bédard, Executive Director of Tourism North Bay. “These picnics perfectly blend our culinary creativity with our stunning natural landscapes, offering both locals and visitors a unique way to experience what makes our region special.”

Officials say some of the perfect picnic spots in North Bay include:

  • Kiwanis Bandshell for live music every Tuesday and Wednesday evening
  • Sunset and Champlain parks for evening picnics with playgrounds for the kids
  • Goulet Golden Mile to keep it close to Downtown amenities with waterfront views
  • Birchaven Cove for quiet, lakeside reflection and relaxation
