About M & J's Country Kitchen
Downtown Oliver keeps most of its eating places within a few blocks of each other, which makes choosing a matter of a short walk rather than a drive. M & J's Country Kitchen belongs to that cluster at the centre of town, among the shops along the shaded main street.
Restaurants in a farm town like this one vary in how much is made in house, whether a large table needs advance notice, how takeout orders are handled, and whether the week's schedule shifts once the tourist season winds down. A phone call ahead settles most of that, and it is worth the minute it takes if you are bringing a group, arriving outside the usual midday rush, or driving in from out of town rather than walking over from a nearby motel.
Traffic between Penticton and Osoyoos passes straight through this town, so the middle of the day can fill with travellers as well as locals, particularly on summer weekends. A sit down meal also anchors a day spent among the wineries, where a proper lunch does more good than another tasting flight. Menu information and other details are posted at mjcountrykitchen.com, and the restaurant answers at 250-485-4920.
