Our Story

A long-standing icon on the island

The Northwood Restaurant & Bar is a long-standing icon on Drummond Island with small-town charm and spirited conversations. Dawn Gibbons & Richard Ross purchased the business in 2014, restoring the original name as part of their new management.

They have brought lots of fresh ideas and have made many positive changes to the building, but continue to honor the traditions this gathering place represents to the Island community. It will always be the perfect place to catch a game, celebrate or just chill with friends. The beer will always be cold ad there will always be a seat for you at the bar.
