First time trying this place. I had a cheeseburger and large fries for $17.25, which is a bit…read moresteep. The fries were really good, except most of them were cut really small, which was disappointing. The burger tasted quite good, but was way overcooked and really, really dry. I would like to believe that I just got one that wasn't cooked properly. If the burger was a bit juicy, this rating would be a strong 4, with the value for the money and baby fry bits preventing a 5 star rating. Not sure if I'd try it again for that price.

I have never been so embarrassed about bringing people to a place that I have recommended. I…read morethought The Deck would be a nice place to bring my friends who were visiting from Toronto to, especially since I have been here in the past and enjoyed my meal. As per usual, the service was extremely slow but I told them it's just because Bowmanville runs at a slower pace than Toronto. However, I never understand why it always takes so long for the waitress to bring our drinks at The Deck. This time the waitress brought our three waters and then we waited another 7-10 minutes for our beer. She brought us the two beers we ordered and another water for my one friend. As if she forgot she has just brought us three waters already. I recommended the Deck salad to my friend because I've enjoyed it in the past, as indicated in my previous review. When it arrived, it was the saddest looking salad ever. Also, please not it didn't have a single kale leaf despite the description being that it is a kale salad. The dressing was completely tasteless, perhaps just pure oil. My friends also ordered fries, which were cold. My friend ordered the fries based on their description of being double fried because she likes them crispy. She said they didn't taste double cooked at all. We also asked the server for vinegar and ketchup twice before she brought it. However, she did bring the mayo, which my friend asked to be brought with the fries (because of dietary restrictions.) Apparently the menu descriptions and what you get do not align. The menu should indicate that you will receive a variation of what you hope you're ordering. At the end of this disappointing lunch, the waitress asked if she could clear our plates as we were finished eating. We said yes. Then she proceeded to walk away without clearing any of the plates. As we was leaving, we asked if she could bring our bills. She gave one to me and my friend and my other friend, who only ordered one thing - a burger - had to wait for another bill because she charged for the wrong thing. Which may have been surprising to make a mistake when only one burger needed to be charged, but we unfortunately (or fortunately, as we were prepared for this) expected this. Not impressed. I should have photographed the salad to post but I was too sad!

They literally had posters inside and outside with the Greek promotion EVERYWHERE LOOL doesn't make sense. I also believe the bread was old and sitting out for way too long, as it was very dry and hard. And also the toaster must have been way too long because the bread came out quite hard and very dark. Another thing that was gross and annoying, the one guy who wrapped one of my sandwiches squirted a giant blob of sauce onto the wrapping of the sandwich and instead of wiping it off he acted like he didn't see it AND WRAPPED IT INTO THE SUB !! So that when it was opened a good half of top of the sub was covered in sauce. Just stupid.

We tried two different types of wings Game Plan - Medium, Italian Parmesan Smokey Dill - BBQ and Creamy Dill My friend really liked the flavor combination of the Game Plan Wings.

We also had the Meatilicious Poutine This fully loaded poutine topped was with cheese curds, gravy, ground beef, pepperoni and bacon. The amount of meat on this was surprising. Definitely perfect someone who wants all the toppings! Finally, we ordered the Jerk Chicken Mac. This mac and cheese was not only super cheesy but flavorful. The chicken was spiced well and I quite enjoyed the jerk flavor. I would definitely return and try some of their other menu offerings!
