What We’re all about

At The Imperial, we believe in more than just great food and drinks—we believe in the power of community. Located in the heart of New Hamburg, Ontario, we are a gathering place where locals can come together to share good times, delicious meals, and exceptional drinks. Our mission is simple: to celebrate everything that makes this community special.

We are passionate about supporting local farmers, artisans, and businesses, and we take great pride in creating food that’s made from scratch with care and attention to detail. Every dish we serve is crafted with the freshest, locally-sourced ingredients to highlight the best of what our region has to offer. Whether you're enjoying one of our signature meals or sampling a seasonal special, you can trust that it’s made with love and respect for our local producers.

ABOUT THE OWNERS

For more than two decades, Matt and Jackie Rolleman have built their lives and careers around great food, great people, and a love for hospitality. Since entering the restaurant business in 2001, this husband-and-wife duo have grown the Rolleman Restaurant Group with 13 Food and Beverage/The Galt Club in Cambridge (co-owned by Matt’s brother and sister-in-law, Rod and Carrie Rolleman), alongside The Imperial Restaurant in New Hamburg and, most recently, Club 51 Sports Bar at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium.

With a hands-on approach and a passion for creating places people want to come back to, Matt and Jackie continue to bring their experience, energy, and love of the industry to every project they take on.
