It was Diva Night! What's that you ask? The ladies of Port Perry and the surrounding areas are invited to a shopping event on the main stretch of this quaint town. Before shopping, we decided to have dinner first. My friends recommended this spot and I really enjoyed it! We all ordered drinks. I haven't had a Long Island iced tea in maybe a decade?! $9?! If I wasn't driving, I would have easily consumed 3. It was delish! Cocktails for under ten bucks blew my mind. I'm so used to downtown Toronto prices. Friday and Saturday night there is a prime rib special. Although I asked for medium rare, it was more medium well. The saving grace was that the meat was quite tender and seasoned nicely. I enjoyed all the fixins which included mixed veggies, mashed potatoes, and Yorkshire pudding! Service was pretty good. Servers were young but were trained properly. Just the right balance of friendly and attentive. I have to mention the bathrooms are upstairs and the stalls are tiny. Terribly awkward. I heard there is an accessible washroom downstairs which is good for anyone who needs it. I would definitely come here again for the food and drinks! If it's not Friday or Saturday, I'll order the fish and chips. They looked and smelled incredible! read more

Jester's Court Pub & Eatery - Prime rib with a variety of sides. $34. - Pubs Near Me - Port Perry, Ontario

Yvonne is the BEST server and the place has been standing for decades! Always great service and great eats!!

Best patio and pub food in Port Perry! Great service, good portions, fun drinks, big menu and easy street parking. Tried the nachos, wings and potato skins... along with some beer and a Killer Koolade! Really nice patio, shady side under the trees, or brighter open side with umbrellas and a great street view. Very enjoyable, will be going back to try the burger! read more

July 24/21: Nice little pub in the heart of Port Hope. This was an older place with a history of being haunted! The atmosphere seemed rushed. The table itself was clean but it wasn't well cared for. The table was very wobbly & we ended up having to secure it ourselves as guests. Our server was Debbie. She was polite but very rushed in her service. It took a little too long to get our food. The fish & chips were good. The stand out was the fish...very tasty. The fries were done like I like them but they weren't hot enough. The bathroom was upstairs but the hall was unlit & I almost tripped on an object left in the path. read more

I'm not sure what was happening behind the scene yesterday (Aug 21) .. perhaps the kitchen was short staffed? .. but when we arrived for lunch around 1pm, there was a lineup outside and if you didn't have a reservation (or even if you did) you were told it would be at least a half hour wait. We could see there were quite a few vacant tables outside so this explanation did not make much sense! We finally got a table and our server (one of two!) was very pleasant and the food was o.k. read more

Great food great service definitely would recommend to anyone who wants a great dining experience

This is a great place to stop by. The food is a level up from what I have come to expect from a pub. It was absolutely delicious. We went here for a celebration and it was a great end to a wonderful day. read more

We dropped in for ambiance, dinner and a draft beer. This pub scores well on all fronts. The restaurant is in an old house on the main street of the town. We were seated promptly at a clean booth and a friendly server came by and took our drinks order. Lots of tasty brews on tap to choose from! I had the quesadilla which was served with a side salad. Tasty and satisfying. My husband had salmon and salad. Delicious and healthy. The salads were topped with a homemade sundried tomato which was a really nice touch. We will definitely be returning, maybe on a hot day to dine on the patio. read more

Came in with 5 people and the two waitresses stared at us while talking on the phone, after their phone call one girl awkwardly told us it would take too long and to go, we left read more

My favorite haunted pub actually my favorite pub in any way. The staff are amazing and the food is top notch!! Been 4 times now .book ahead for big party's . read more

This place was terrible. We decided to go around 5pm on a Saturday to miss the dinner rush and to hopefully get in and out fairly quick. We were looking to potentially get some good service and have a nice Birthday Dinner for my wife. Unfortunately it was the complete opposite. Ordered app with our drinks to make it quick but instead waited VERY long time to get it. Dinners also took extremely long time to get.(THANK GOD we ordered an app). One of us ordered the crab cakes(NEVER order these here) $18 for 2 cakes that tasted like the cheapest can of tuna. Had one bite and tasted so bad couldn't eat anymore. When the server finally came back to check on us after giving us our meals, we explained that the crab cakes were horrible. She offered to get us something else but we declined because the rest of us at the table were already finished our meals(that just goes to show how good the service was...never saw the waitress through our entire meal. could have used another drink). We didn't want to wait another 40-50mins for another meal. The other meals we had weren't that great either. The burger was not too bad but would take a Big Mac over it. The roast beef was as dry as a popcorn fart(thank god it came with au jus to somewhat get it down. The chicken club had the smallest piece of chicken you could find in it. The part that made our experience the worst was when we received the bill. They didn't even offer to take the horrible crab cakes off it, even though they knew we were absolutely unsatisfied with them and only had one little bite. No apology for the terrible cakes either. Now I know they can't use them for anything else but at least make an offer to remove them from the bill to please your guest and persuade them to come back again. This would have also made us want to leave a bigger tip. I am so tired of going out to restaurants, receiving terrible service these days and then have wait staff wine so much that they need bigger tips. 15% used to be the norm if you have great service. Now I see that 15% has turned to 20-30%. Not a chance I would even consider 15% with the service I received form this restaurant. Lucky she got what I gave her. Not a chance I will ever go back to this place either or recommend it to anyone. I even voiced my opinion and sent them an email from their webpage first, instead of on social media. I didn't get a response after few weeksWhat a Joke...) so here I am... Do yourself a favour...go to one of the many other Port Perry restaurants before trying this place. So much for a nice Birthday Dinner... read more

I have learnt that the food here can be very hit or miss depending on who is working that day. Over the years I have been served Fettuccine Alfredo with grey coloured sauce, Shepard's Pie with raw carrots and a Tuna Melt with burnt cheese but stone cold tune. That being said, if you go on a Friday night you can be served some good entries the roast beef is fairly good. The Jambalaya is nice and spicy. And the salads are always fresh. The wine list is non existent. Do you want Red or White ? It is a very old building with lots of character. Supposedly haunted. read more

Ordered take out chicken parm and carbonara pasta. There was no taste in the carbonara, like it could have been package powder sauce. The onions were cut long and at least half an onion in the pasta. Noodles were also over cooked. The chicken parm marinara sauce was bitter. Always great pub food, and great service, I'm surprised the carbonara has stayed on the menu, I would recommend the manager taste it! read more

Was here for a private function. Food okay for buffet, salmon quite good. Service was exceptional. The ladies here were working pretty well wide open but we're unfailingly attentive, efficient and welcoming. read more

This place is a gem. If you love pub food you must try this out. The food was delicious and the service was awesome. They also feature psychic readings some nights, which are a lot of fun if you want to try something different. read more

I had lamb Curry and my wife had mussels. Both were excellent. We sat on the patio. A great way to finish a day.

My husband and I were there for a group gathering in the upstairs room. I was worried we'd be ignored being so far out of the way, but our waitress was great. We ordered the fried pickles which were good and hot, and the portobello panini, which was the perfect blend of flavors. The food was great, prices were decent. Excellent quality food, service and atmosphere; everything was exactly what keeps this group going back there. read more

We come by sometimes for the ambiance and drinks at the bar. Tonight the bartender was watching some reality TV show really loud and eating her dinner beside us at the bar. Didn't seem to be washing her hands in between servicing customers and taking bites of her meal. Also totally killed the experience, the TV was interfering with the music and the entire situation was annoying. I could drink beer and watch House Hunters International at home for a lot cheaper. I come to a pub for a drink and the experience of being in a pub. We won't be back. Check out Marwan's Bistro or the Old Flame before this place. read more

The food is okay .. But the service is outrageously poor..we had our drinks and food just plopped on the table...there was no follow up on our service...no offer of coffee or desert...I work hard for my money...was very disappointed as my husband I don't go out often and this was the worst experience night out... read more

Jester's Court is a good choice to eat. They have great food and a great story to tell about the building that the restaurant is in. The only thing I would say badly about it, is that you have to wait quite a while so don't go there if you don't want to wait. read more

Food and Service is consistently amazing. Hours can change on a whim, so call ahead of time to ensure you can get in. The daily specials are well crafted and priced well. This historic building has a lot of charm to it and the size allows for larger group seating to be put together on a moments notice. Definitely well worth a visit! read more

went in for lunch with a friend. the server was very grumpy and not very pleasant. found it weird that they were wearing flip flops in January. we were seated in the porch area off the dinning room was very cold. took about 10 minutes for them to ask what we would like to drink the took anther 10 minutes to return with the drinks. we ordered a burger and sweet potato fries and a club sandwich. took about 30 minutes to get the food and when we did the sandwich bread and the burger bun were burnt. the chicken on the club was rubbery and the burger was dry and burnt as well. the waitress did not come back to see if the food was okay for about 20 minutes and when we told her the complaints she said she would let the kitchen know about them and gave us our bill. would never go back or recommended to anyone was the worst service and food I have ever had. read more
