Our Story

Built with love, in memory of Samuel

We built Samuel’s in memory of our son, turning grief into a place of warmth and connection. Alongside comforting burgers and Filipino favourites, our open kitchen has become a gathering place for family, friends and neighbours.

Chef Rob honed his savoury skills at the College of the North Atlantic and leads the kitchen, while Cristina, a nurse, teacher and midwife by training, pours that same care into every dessert and custom cake.

From our guests

The “Two Sweet” birthday cake looked unbelievable and tasted even better, quite simply the best cake I’ve ever had. 10/10!

H.V.

The double smash burger is the best in Corner Brook, juicy, fresh and dangerously delicious. Even the poutine is seasoned just right.

W.

Our sandwiches were loaded and packed with flavour. The ingredients are top quality, portions are generous, and everything is always super fresh.
