Welcome to Saffron in Saugeen Shores!
We have been serving international cuisine right here in Port Elgin since 2012! Everything is homemade, including our bread and desserts. Just below you will find information on reservations and take-out!
Today’s Specials & Reservation Information
RESERVATION PROTOCOL
The best way to make a reservation is to call 519-832-9121 any time after 1:30PM on Wednesdays to Saturdays (and you can call after 8:30AM on Sundays). If you wish to pre-order your food when you make your reservation, go for it! Walk-ins will only be accepted if it's a slow night for take-out, (take-out is about 80% of our business, thus reservations are strongly recommended!) :)
TAKE-OUT PROTOCOL
For our dinner service, call 519-832-9121 any time after 1:30 Wednesdays to Saturdays to place your take-out order in advance (after 8:30 on Sundays for breakfast). The hours for pick-up are in 5 minute increments between 4:00-7:45 for dinner (and 9:00-12:45 on Sunday). The regular menu is all available, plus daily features listed below.
Sunday March 29th (9:00-11:30ish)
Yes, we are here with a special meal on offer! No, there is NO power in Port Elgin!
While we cannot open for our regular breakfast operations today, we indeed have a breakfast special to feed our lovely customers for take-out!
We can’t offer the regular menu since we can’t have the gas griddle on (without the hood fan running, it gets SO smoky in the restaurant). However, we have made a casserole, described below, in our gas oven and will have a pot of chai on! :) :)
HOW TO ORDER: Jenn cannot take calls to the restaurant without the power, and her mobile phone battery will drain quickly checking for online messages, so just come on over! We will be here from 9:00-11:30ish (or whenever we run out - I will update the website when that happens). It will take us only a 3-4 minutes to pack up the casserole, cook your eggs and pour your chai (if you’d like some!)
HOW TO PAY: Cash is great! Otherwise, Jenn will securely take your credit card information (and phone number, in case there is a problem) and process the payment after the power is back on. She will shred the paper containing your information afterwards!
HOT DRINK ON OFFER:Indian Chai $4 (Indian-style sweet, milky tea)!
SUNDAY POWER OUTAGE SPECIAL!Caribbean Breakfast Casserole! $20
Soooo good, and perfect to eat at home in the dark! You get a big honkin’ piece of it - the delicious thing is made with roasted cauliflower, layers of potatoes, peas, cheddar cheese, curry powder, thyme, habaneros, onions, cream and is topped with buttery garlic Panko bread crumbs! Not spicy hot, just super flavourful! We baked it in the gas oven by candlelight! Served with two eggs - you can have them over-easy, over-medium sunny side or scrambled. You will definitely be full.
(Vegetarian. Contains gluten and dairy).
Easter Hours: Yes, we are open Good Friday (April 3rd), but will be closed on Sunday April 5th in order to allow staff the time to drive and see family! Thanks for understanding!
