Ailsa Craig is a quaint little town. It features a great grocery store that also has an LCBO and Beer store within. They also have a nice deli with sandwiches, wraps and subs available.
The local pub is within walking distance and offers good food at reasonable prices.
We also have a scenic walk down by the river in the Lions Park which features the "Quilt Trail". This trail has replicas of the quilts (painted on boards) of the countries that have attended the Ailsa Craig Fiber and Art Festival over the past years.
