Juncti8n


When Ron and Becky Janmaat decided to open a Dutch/Canadian restaurant in downtown Seaforth, they were hoping to bring together more than just their respective culinary heritages - they wanted ‘Juncti8n’  (pronounced Junction Eight) to become the go-to gathering place for locals and visitors alike looking to meet up over some casual comfort food or a cup of coffee. 


It didn’t take long for the Janmaats’ dream to become a reality. When they first opened their doors in the fall, a large section of Main St was closed for an extended period of time, but despite that fact, the little shop has seen a steady influx of Seaforthians excited to sample the sandwiches or try the fresh cut potato wedges. 


The long high table in the middle of the room often fills up quickly with families and friends celebrating the chance to eat together, and some seated counter space facing the street is a perfect place to people-watch while awaiting a takeout order, or to perch during a lunch break. There’s also a monthly sandwich special that frequently draws inspiration from the menu of Johnny’s Sub and Sandwich Shop,’ a beloved local lunch spot on Main St that closed a few years ago. It’s easy to envision a young family making this cute spot their go-to spot for eating out. Obviously, cheese burgers and chicken fingers will always be staples for Seaforth’s littlest citizens, but adventurous young people will also be enticed into trying their first Nasi Hapjie


The custom made wooden tables are a suitable setting for catching up with a buddy over burgers, or splitting some Dutch street food with a date. There’s cones of fries, Indonesian-inspired noodle croquettes, and onion stuffed frikandel sausages. And mayo, of course. Lots of mayo. No tour of the Netherlands would be complete without a hagelslag (chocolate sprinkle and butter) sandwich and a cup of coffee!


Whether you go with a Canadian classic like ham and cheese, or try the Dutch meatloaf sandwich, it’s all about customizing your toppings at Juncti8n. You can try a BLT w/ blackened garlic mayo, or a fully loaded Greek veggie burger with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, onion, tzatziki, and olives, or tuna salad or multigrain with chipotle mayo, hot peppers and spinach. The list goes on, but whatever you decide on, you may as well add some potato wedges for a mere $3 extra - they’re great! 


Juncti8n is located at 13 Main St in Seaforth, and is open from 11-8, Tuesday to Saturday, and accepts cash and cards.
