Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As a Celiac I wasn't to sure about ordering when I tried to ask my server a few questions to ensure safe preparation of my food and got the "Ya, ya, we have a option for that when we place the order" response. Decided to...order anyway and see how it went. When our meals came it was brought by someone from the kitchen who declared my meal as the gluten free one when he approached the table. That made me feel a little better that the message had gotten back to the kitchen. I was a little bit concerned about cross contact when I was eating but I think that was because of the interaction with the server. I had the California Dreaming Burger on a gluten free bun with Garlic Mashed Potatoes. I was too nervous to inquire about dessert options.More

Friendly welcoming staff. Seated outside this place has a nice atmosphere. Really busy which is a sign of good food! And it was! Burger was juicy and full of flavour and the poutine was on point too. The food was so appealing I forgot to...take a pic and just got stuck straight in! Sorry…More

Husband had mustard ribs appy. Full to overflowing bowl with little tasty ribs with a mustard maple coating. I had the Quebecer sandwich with chicken that had been coated with a tasty chili coating. Nice fresh salad and lovely dirty martini.

Went here with my wife and 3 kids. There were plenty of available options and the menu seemed like the "normal" menu, so I'm not sure what happened in the case of other recent reviews. This was a Sunday evening so maybe they have more...options on weekends? The waitress was not friendly, she never came to our table after the food was served (by someone else), and when she handed me the credit card machine at the end, she had pre-selected 18% gratuity on our bill...for 5 people. Ouch. I'm not a stingy tipper (I was a server once so I like to be generous) but I do believe in "earn your tips" and she definitely didn't. Couple small things to be aware of - a pop will set you back $6 and the Kids Mac/Cheese is just about 1 cup of Kraft Dinner...for $15. A bit surprising given how good the burgers were. And it was an extra $4 for a small rameken of gravy to go with the fries that came with a burger. Yikes. In short, the food was good but the prices were steep for cheap things, and our server forced a generous tip on us when it wasn't deserved. It's too bad because this place is really great, but the little things left a bad taste in the mouth...so just be aware of them if you go here and you'll be all set.More

This is a bar with pretensions. We read the menu supplied to the hotel, interesting and many fine dining items, decided on what we wanted. Big surprise the menu was a single one sided half sheet and nothing on it was on the menu we...saw. Appys, salad, glorified burgers and sandwiches and some desserts. We had decided on steak in some form, not one offered, the clincher was sticky toffee pudding- not that either. Chicken on your dinner salad was the only option we saw and it wasn't what we wanted, so 2 beef dips with "special horseradish sauce" if it was there I couldn't taste it, side of salad/chips we shared and an au jus so thin you had to wonder how they made it. Was an expensive disappointing meal. We had cheesecake for dessert, it was a birthday dinner on the road. The waitress was great, cheerful and very busy but made sure we got our food hot and our dessert. It was $$$ dinner that didn't rate the bill.More

We saw a full menu in the motel, went because it was close and sounded good. There was a wait, waitress was pleasant and sent us outside to wait for a table with others . Menu was a disappointment, since we had already decided what...sounded Iike dinner and none of it was there, a very abbreviated menu of app'ys, salads, burgers and sandwiches. No really being in the mood for a glorified burger we opted for a beef dip and salad/ chips. Very mediocre beef dip, with a big price. The waitress was cheerful and attentive and she did know the beer list! Dessert was short too, we had seen sticky toffee pudding on the " big" menu and it wasn't on the other sheet, very short choice and as it was a birthday dinner on the road we got cheesecake. Nothing very different there either, not made in house for sure. But choice of topping and teas. All in all, an expensive meal that really ,didn't rate. But it's a tourist town that depends on seasonal revenue so ....More

Atmosphere is great. Prime rib was excellent. Poutine was okay. The prime rib was $46 with two sides, but ended up paying an additional $5 for each side. The dry ribs were very salty, so much so neither of us could finish a single one....$100 meal. In the end I will say it was over priced and another place would have been better.More

I cannot recommend this establishment. Service was very fast and friendly, but the food was extremely expensive and not....good. I had a burger and onion rings; the bun was stale and hard, and the meat was a frozen manufactured patty. Definitely not worth $32! It...came out so fast I wondered if it had been made for someone else and then served to me? On top of that, the dining room had a very odd, off-putting, "sewer" smell that came over it several times throughout the meal. I couldn't finish my meal as a result (and didn't really want to) so we left with at least "$10" worth of food on the plate. I rarely warn people away from anywhere, and I'm reluctant to do so now. Judging from the reviews, our experience was an anomaly. But I won't be back.More

The place was full on a weeknight, so make sure you book. Even at the busy time the staff were very attentive and quick. Good choice of local beer. Food was also very good. A few more veggie choices would be good to see on...the menu.More
