What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

The third stop in the You Gotta Eat Here! episode 'Sovereign Room, The Manx, Osbourne Village', which aired on 2015-04-03, was a diner in Winnipeg's Osborne Village; TVmaze's summary describes a 20-year-old diner with a fresh menu but does not name it. A Hungry Highway TV-restaurant map entry, seen in search results on 2026-10-20 but since removed from that site, named the stop as Osborne Village Café, so this entry rests on that listing rather than on the episode credits. A Food Musings review from 2014 placed the café in the Osborne Village Motor Hotel at 160 Osborne Street, run by owner and chef Leighton Fontaine, with dishes such as perogies with maple-poached bacon and potato-and-beet latkes.

When checked on 2026-10-20, Google Maps listed Osborne Village Cafe at 160 Osborne Street as permanently closed, with its newest review about ten years old. A reviewer on a directory site wrote that the café was leaving its Osborne location for a new spot; no source read says where it went or whether it is still operating.
