When driving past the South Frontenac Rental Centre you cant miss the 38 Special Fries food truck located at the south end of the parking lot. With its bright colours and significant size, at 34 feet long it is one of the biggest food trailers in Ontario, it’s hard to miss! Owner Ryan Harriman opened the food truck in 2020 creating a mobile eatery that filled a void in the Harrowsmith food scene and quickly become a sought after destination. He has created a menu that has something for everyone and offers everything from what you would traditionally expect at a food truck like fries, burgers, poutine, alongside more specialty items like deep fried cheesecake, meatless burgers and 4 and 8 oz Haddock fillets. They have also created a small picnic area where customers can sit outside and enjoy their food. Recently they have introduced an online ordering system to help reduce wait times during the lunch time rush specifically aimed at customers on a lunch break with limited time. Everything on the menu is prepared by order, which keeps the ingredients fresh and tasty and customers coming back. The prices are reasonable and the friendly staff is always there to greet you with a smile and answer any questions. Catering to both locals and seasonal visitors no one is left disappointed, or hungry, after a visit to the 38 Special. In it’s third season they seem to have found their groove and is bound to be feeding the community there much sought after poutine for many years to come. 38 Special Fires is located at 4567 Road 38 and is open Tuesday to Sunday from 11am-6pm. They accept debit, credit card and cash as payment and offering online ordering.
