Bill and Terry Argo opened the first Symposium Cafe in London, Ontario in 1996 as a dessert destination. Customers wanted more, so the menu grew to breakfast-through-late-night under the same Renaissance frescoes. The Hanlon Creek location has free parking in the lot. Inside it has a family-casual feel. There are booths, there's a patio, and it takes reservations. The washroom is wheelchair accessible. On Sunday, kids twelve and under eat free with an adult entrée. The menu runs on fries, plus salmon, burgers, salads, and sandwiches. Service is quick and friendly.
