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!

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!) :)

Soup:
Polish Potato and Dill Pickle! $8
This soup is SO tasty (and no, it’s not super pickle-y or sour!) It is very creamy, with potatoes, carrots, celery, sour cream, dill, paprika, bay leaves, butter, chopped pickled cucumbers and vegetable stock - the flavour is awesome! (Jenn normally skips the side pickle on her plate, but enjoyed this soup a lot!)
(Vegetarian. Contains gluten and dairy).
Appetizers:
Spinach and Mushroom Crepes with Bechamel! $16
This is SO GOOD. Dev made homemade crepe batter - you get two that are rolled up and stuffed with a filling of sauteed mushrooms, spinach, onions, garlic, thyme, caraway, parmesan and cream cheese. They are coated in bread crumbs, fried and topped with a homemade bechamel cream sauce made with a touch of Dijon, garlic, chili flakes, nutmeg and parmesan! Delicious - 2 to 4 people can share them :)
(Vegetarian. Contains eggs, gluten and dairy).
Drinks:
Chai $4.00
Our famous hot milky caffeinated sweet tea made with cardamom and ginger. :)
Coffee! $3.50
We have partnered with Rabbit Dash/Dizzy Bird here in town to serve you a cup of their delicious "Saffron Blend" - a medium-dark roast with nutty, syrupy hazelnut notes, and a bright aftertaste!
Cold Drinks:
Ginger Ale, A&W Root Beer, Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite $3
Fuze Iced Tea $3
Perrier or Lemon & Blood Orange San Pellegrino $3.50
Main:
Return of the Hungarian Chicken Paprikash! $26
We bring this back often since we get many requests for it (Dev's Eastern European cooking is ridiculously good!) Chicken breast, bell peppers, onions, garlic, paprika, dill, caraway, tomato paste, sour cream and chicken stock cooked in this glorious stew. It is served over homemade spatezle (little boiled flour dumplings made with a hint of nutmeg and black pepper) and topped with a dollop of sour cream. Packed full of flavour, and very filling!
(Contains dairy and gluten).
Desserts:
1 of 2: Blueberry Pie Roti! $11
We’ve brought it back! Our homemade dough is fried up (like a Beaver Tail!) and topped with a delicious blueberry pie filling (with lemon zest and maple!) and whipped cream cheese! Big enough for 2-4 to share!
(Contains gluten and dairy. Egg-free!)
2 of 2: Central European Chocolate & Coffee Cake! $11
OH.
MY.
Jenn is struggling to find the words to describe the deliciousness of this cake.
Layers of homemade chocolate sponge cake are soaked in a coffee syrup. Layered with whipped chocolate ganache and whipped coffee French butter cream icing. It is SO. GOOD. It will fill ALL of your caffeine needs. Big enough for 2!
(Contains eggs, dairy and gluten).
Please note that summer is officially here - this means that before we open at 4:00pm (or 9:00am on Sundays) we often have a multitude of take-out orders *already placed, as well as dine-in reservations. For July and August, call as early as possible to get your take-out order in to avoid disappointment! Jenn will try her best to update the website just above with each night’s status (how busy it is, etc.), but sometimes the phone rings so many times that it’s hard to stay caught up! :)
