    While the prices of food have skyrocketed, we still manage to eat out occasionally, especially if…read morewe find good value for the money. We were exploring Cobourg, ON, and found this restaurant. The lunch menu is predominantly breakfasts, and sandwiches/wraps/tartines (open faced fried sandwiches). Very delicious vegetarian tartine and roast beef tartine which included fries and coleslaw at very reasonable prices and generous portions. We broke down and ordered a chocolate and orange gluten-free mousse cake, and a favourite of mine-carrot cake. Both were fabulous - all made in-house! The ambiance is pleasant, if a bit labyrinthine and the staff efficient and friendly. We will be back!

    We came in on a Saturday morning expecting a nice breakfast, but unfortunately had a very…read moredisappointing experience. After being seated, we waited 20 minutes just to receive menus. We eventually had to ask for them ourselves, only to be told they had to "find more menus." That was the first sign that things weren't running well. An hour later, we still hadn't received any food. When we asked how much longer it would be, we were simply told, "A few more minutes." At that point, we decided to leave without ever being served our meal. To make matters worse, I had to ask twice just to get my coffee refilled. What was most disappointing was the lack of customer service. When we informed the staff that we were leaving because we had been waiting so long, there was no apology, no acknowledgment of the inconvenience, and no attempt to make the situation right. This is the first time in my life I have ever left a restaurant. Long waits can happen, especially on busy weekends, but poor communication and a complete lack of concern for customers are much harder to overlook. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we won't be returning. If I could leave zero stars I would.

    Not impressed by first visit…read more Went with a group of 9 for lunch. We had a reservation. We were not the only group, but I believe, the largest. One server in the entire restaurant, and he was also the bartender. Too much for only one person to be able to manage. By the time half of us were able to place our drink orders, the other half had already ordered and been served their drinks. Caesars were mostly ice, with very little "Caesar". Two of us were excited to order liver, bacon, and onions as we rarely see it on menus. Plates arrived with liver, (garlic?) mashed potatoes, one piece of broccoli, one piece of cauliflower, and extremely undercooked carrots that neither of us could eat as they were so hard. There was only a very passing acquantance with onions, with only a couple of visible bits of onion in the gravy on my plate. Both plates were delivered with steak knives. My slices were very thin and extremely tough. When you can barely manage to cut through a thin piece of liver with a steak knife, that's a problem. The woman beside me, who had also ordered liver, thoughly enjoyed hers, and said it was tender and delicious. I will agree with "delicious", as I couldn't fault the flavour. Mine, however, was far from being tender. I had to fight to cut through it, even with the steak knife. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their meal. Not sure I would try Railside again if ever in the area.

    Our bus group had lunch at Railside on Thursday before a theatre date. After a prior…read moreunsatisfactory experience there my expectations were not high but this lunch was lovely! Salad, entree and dessert were all perfectly prepared and nicely plated. Their small serving crew were all amazing, providing a 3 course lunch to over 100 theatre-bound patrons in under 90 minutes. Giving this restaurant 5 stars... with pleasure!
