Locally known as "The Cooper House" for the family who lived within its walls until 197b, its new owners poured their hearts into its transformation in 1983. Dale Dolson and Rob McGregor, both experienced restauranteurs, did the lion's share of the refurbishing work themselves. They stripped wallpaper, sanded floors, refurbished staircases 'and replaced window casements. They scrubbed out the coal bin that eventually became distinctive guest restrooms. And they saved the magnificent stained glass windows that continue to delight their guests. Queen Victoria presides from the wall of the entranceway and her regal presence is felt in every room, from the sitting room where guests are first greeted to the three dining rooms decorated in her Victorian style. The detailed menu at Robindale's offers • a wide variety of appetizers, soups and salads. But it is the selection of entrees that tantalize the taste buds frgm hearty steaks to succulent seafood. Guests can extend their dining pleasure by adjourning to one of two dessert and coffee rooms upstairs. The Warren Room and the Elizabeth Room offer cake trays and tea tables laden with desserts to provide a royal ending to a majestic meal. Robindale's fine dining --offering fine service in an atmosphere of Victorian charm and pleasure.

His father Isaac had moved•to Exeter from London and opened the town's first generat stone'and tannery and was instrumental in bringing railway sers::,e to southern Huron County. "If the Carling name sounds familiar, well it should. Isaac's two brothers formed a partnership in "London and founded the Carling Brewery, a large company still bearing the family name. Isaac's son Thomas grew up to run the tannery and raised a healthy family of six daughters and one son. After his demise in 1915, his beautiful home on the south end of Exeter was sold to William May. He too was a successful local merchant whose store Jones and May Dry Goods thrived for many years. In, the early 1970's, another caring family moved into this spacious home and proceeded to restore it with loving care. Dr. and Mrs. Ralph Topps and family restored the natural beauty of the home, seen in its ornate oak woodwork, doors and arches. Robindale's have attempted) only to add their own personality and character to this proud Exeter residence. To continue a tradition of service to the community, Robindale's Fine Dining invites you to sit back and make their home...your home. "Homes of Distinction" 80 Hamilton Street Goderich, Ontario.
