    Our first visit here really missed the mark. We've been looking forward to eating here for some…read moretime so we invited the new neighbours for dinner before a show, but we definitely won't be back. We arrived before the supper rush and while it was busy, the place was not full by any means with multiple empty tables. We sat up in 'The Boat' which is right next to the bar which is an awkward step up but we weren't offered one of the empty tables so we figured it out even though it wasn't conducive to having a conversation with two other people. The server who gave us menus was friendly but failed to bother to bring any water the entire time we sat there (nearly an hour). The first round of drinks showed up fairly promptly and she took our food order right after that. We opted not to get appetizers because we didn't want to eat too much before our show, but had we known how long we'd have to wait, we would have gotten something. We couldn't even order something to share between the four of us because 'The Boat' is two separate tables. We chatted as we waited for our drinks that we finished and waited some more for someone to bring food. After the last drinks were empty for at least 10 minutes, our server came back to ask if we wanted another round. Seeing as we didn't have food yet (we'd already been waiting 30 minutes), I opted out while the three others ordered one. At this point, I wasn't willing to spend more money for poor service and a long wait. We watched as a large group that clearly arrived long before us, finally got their food after 35 minutes of us having put in our order. A couple across from us showed up at least 20 minutes after us, got drinks, food and the bill before we were even offered a second drink or told about where our food was. During the time, we watched as other patrons came in, were served their food and left before our food even arrived. After about 40 minutes, our server came around and said 'it shouldn't be much longer, we're training kitchen staff so it's taking a little longer'. Not our problem, and clearly not true seeing as so many others who arrived after us were getting their food. The entire time we were waiting, servers stood around the register talking and not really checking on tables. By this point, people kept rolling in, the place got busy and we still didn't have our food 45 minutes after ordering. When our orders finally showed up after 53 minutes of being placed, mine wasn't what I ordered. I asked for a pan fried fish burger and got pan fried fish. The server was adamant that's what I ordered and proceeded to tell me that 'the only difference is the bun and veggies, otherwise it's the same fish'. I was quite surprised at the comment rather than offering to make it right. Given we had a waited nearly an hour for our food by this point, I sucked it up and just ate what I got. Service here is definitely lacking and it's clear staff doesn't have the skills required to deal with people. While the food was alright, the sides looked like they were scraped off of other peoples' plates and just thrown onto ours. No one bothered to check on us or apologize. When the bill arrived, I noticed $5.50 taken off and no explanation. I begrudgingly paid the nearly $70 bill for the two of us and decided we wouldn't be back again!

    OMG the food tonight! We shared, one order of linguine with lobster and one of seared scallops with…read moreCaesar salad. Just LOOK at the number of scallops (and they were big)! Plus there was a ton of lobster in the pasta, the sauce was divine and the salad dressing was fresh and super garlicky. Lots of local craft beers and you could order a small 6oz glass for only $4 to try them. The vibe was very cool, place was packed with lots of very friendly locals and tourists, everyone chatty, super fun. Super friendly staff, Michelle was lovely and had excellent recommendations for both food and drink. Another meal

    The End of the Line Pub is located in a Circa 1919 train station. From the outside the place looks…read moreto have potential - you can easily imagine that a quaint, cozy, and historically decorated dining experience lies within. Unfortunately, when you crack the door you are greeted by a dark, dingy 1980s decor, complete with deep teal paint, wildly floral burgundy wallpaper, and plastic patio tables with umbrella holes in the centres. We chose a table near the fireplace, one of three bright spots in the joint, despite the fact that it was lunchtime on Sunday. The remaining light emanated from a giant TV tuned to curling, and at the other end of the pub, the brightest glow leaked from the room containing the Video Lottery Terminals. It should have been a clue to us that the pub was nearly empty with the exception of that room. I took some heart in the fact that the sandwich board by the door advertised Propeller beer. I'm a huge fan of giving the benefit of the doubt and good beer is usually a good sign.. Our waitress was quick to provide our menus and ask for our drink orders. Troy ordered a Sprite and I asked for iced tea. She quickly returned with his Sprite, and a glass of water for me. The menu was extensive, however it quickly became obvious that most items were generic freezer fare. A page of "Asian Fusion" items and a page of Tex Mex items tempted me, but if there's one thing I've learned from experience, you stick with the safe and simple in a place like this. I chose the Haddie Tips with crispy fries and Troy had a burger with regular fries. If they'd had an all day breakfast I'd have chosen that as a safer option yet, but alas, they did not. When the meals arrived, the portions were a good size. Troy's burger was loaded with so much stuff it slid apart before it made it to the table. That may have been prevented if the chunks of iceberg lettuce had been replaced with a couple of leaves of romaine. His regular fries looked a lot like Macdonald's. The patty, at least, appeared homemade. My fries were also from a freezer, and if you know anything about me you'll know that I'm of the firm belief that restaurants have no business serving frozen fries. If you value your customers, take the time to cut the potatoes yourself. I'm not sure if my haddock was fresh or frozen. The fish itself was reasonably fresh, but the breaded coating was reminiscent of Captain Highliner's finest. Troy finished his meal with a slice of chocolate peanut butter cheesecake. I had one bite but quickly determined it wasn't tasty enough to warrant the calories. Troy, who lives for sweets, was also underwhelmed. I love pub food when it's done well. Unfortunately there was nothing about the End of the Line Pub that made me want to go back. Between the uninviting atmosphere and the plain Jane food, it's a better place to go nurse a hangover with grease than a spot to enjoy a meal with friends.

    The idea of having a pub in an old train station is definitely nice. While the Interior isn't…read moreanything special I can't really complain. We just stopped on our way back for some quick supper anyways. I decided to go with a bro burger(play it safe) and substituted the regular fries(already had some earlier) with potato skins. When you get charged $2 to substitute your food you should probably get the same amount of potatoes as you would with regular fries. That wasn't the case. I ate those potato skins in just a few bites. No way this burger costs even close to $9! Price seemed a bit inflated. The burger had nothing other than some jalapenos and raw onions. Disappointing! My companions seemed more happy with their choices of food. I found the service average at best. Not sure why the waitress rushed to give us the bill in the end. It's not like they had any customers waiting in line at the door. Place was practically empty when we were there. Overall, I can't say the pub is bad, but doesn't stand out at all from the rest.

    A great spot - my other food favourite in Bridgewater, N.S…read more I take photographs for a living and I once lived near here (Bridgewater) but now I am often on the other side of the country. But I still like great tasting food and yet my lunch still can't cost me the same as a car payment. So when I'm in my little home town and I'm after some interesting food that is prepared well and by folks who know how to please a big hungry guy. This is a go to for me. In a pub I want the following and in this order / cold beer not necessarily alcoholic , good tasting food choices that tastes like the proprietor would eat there. He does ! I'm 6 feet 4" I'm after well prepared salads and I want crisp fresh fixings with choices of dressings and various protein things I can leave in or out - onions not my favourite - but hey that's me. These guys are pros - totally. The guy who owns that place knows his craft - well ! He's focused on the job - he hires good people with the same philosophy - I like this guys attitude. Never once been offered sub standard grub. Nope these guys are smart and proud of what the cook has just made only seconds before the front end staff rushed it to my table. I often have the specials - a rescent trip 5000 kms back to Bridgewater gave me an opportunity to try their fish special and then another time the pulled pork. Each with an interesting crisp side salad. Cold .5 beer - so I can still focus when I'm done. So 10/10 ? Absolutely delicious - and yet very reasonably priced. My two prime YET not only concern's. I like focused staff, smart conversation and professional pride in one's job. That's this place. The River Pub - North side of King St. near the new bridge east of Victoria Rd I've not found a better Pub in town. Now remember your thirsty and hungry - these guys can solve that.

    Walk into the front foyer and you are greeted with a toilet immediately to the left. Very odd for a…read morerestaurant. Downstairs bathroom, not in good condition urinal broken and filled. Menus covered with sticky mess and splashes of ketchup or whatever... so the place is not clean. carrot cake you can tell was frozen and almost frozen still in the middle for dessert. Skip the dessert. Having said all of this, the food was excellent for appetizers entrée! But if the front door in the bathrooms are dirty you know what condition the kitchen is in!... That's why I give this a mixed review.
