    Veg flat bread, not our fav but great presentation
    Rachel B.

    The Forty Public House is a fun little spot in the heart of the small town of Grimsby Ontario, serving up barbecue favourites and great food with great service! They do a lot of the sauces and things in house and I am a huge fan of the bourbon bbq chicken they use on a lot of their dishes, my favourite being the nachos! Prices are fair and they also have a large selection of local beers and vino available. Highly recommend the Bourbon chicken nachos, the personal size is $10 and could easily be a meal for two, with a large serving of pulled chicken, bbq sauce, bruschetta, cheese and all the accessories! Burgers are a nice size and served hot! Veg flat bread was not our fav, mostly roasted red peppers and an aioli sauce. Not for everyone. Stop in on Thursday's and they have a great Tappa menu, plus the town farmers market is on the street Thursday's 3-7pm so a nice patio atmosphere! Loved the service, drinks and will always get the nachos!

    The Butcher & Banker Pub - Beef dip

    Stopped around 12:30 in the afternoon on a Friday. We were on our way through town on the way to…read moreToronto and wanted something different than a drive through. Weather was nice so we sat out on the patio with 2 of 9 tables empty. Patio was a nice option. Seating is adjacent to the parking lot and near a busy road but hanging plants and market lights made it not so noticeable. We were greeted promptly and offered drinks. We were looking for iced tea but it wasn't on the menu. We were offered hot tea that we could put into a glass of ice and decided to go with a coke instead. Ordered beef dip with fries and grilled chicken wrap with a side salad.Both were tasty and ample sized. Salad was more than basic including cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and sweet peppers. Most of the patio emptied out and then service slowed as well. We ran out of drinks and then also had to go inside to request the check. Pleasant place and would recommend.

Service is hit or miss but our waitress last night was lovely. We dined in around 730 pm and were greeted and sat quickly. We got kids meals, the Thai chicken bites appetizer, Stuffed Beef Yorkie (my fave!) and Fish & Chips. All hot, fresh and flavourful which is hard to come by it seems. For a family of four with appetizer & meals it's around $100 which I find reasonable when the food is tasty! Nothing worse than spending $150 and the food and service were awful. Only reason I gave 4 stars is the interior could use a deep clean. The benches have a velvet fabric and are just super stained and feel dirty, menus not the cleanest. Honestly a good wipe down of the place would go a long way. Won't deter us from coming back though, quite the gem here in the Beamer!

Super flavourful, refreshing, and unique. The food was just as impressive. I had the Brisket Burger, which was delicious--tangy, spicy, and packed with flavour. My wife ordered the Buffalo Cauliflower Sandwich and loved it. The cauliflower was crispy, perfectly cooked, and had just the right amount of kick. Staff is lovely too, accommodating and nice to talk to. Great beer, great food, and a chill vibe--definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

The space is very reminiscent of an old English/Irish pub. Located right in the heart of downtown St Catherine's, my wife and I were promptly welcomed in by the staff as if we were regulars. There was a good selection of in house brews, the bartender was quick to offer suggestions, but we let him know we were told to check out the blueberry wheat. We only had time to stay for one drink, but had a good time, the beer was great and we had a good chat with the bartender. Very frequently and welcoming. We only wish we'd had a time to go back and try some other beers. Hopefully we will get a chance to return one day

After three wineries, my husband was definitely ready for some food. When you walk in, you definitely feel like you're entering an English pub! The bar, and place,ent of the bar was very traditional to pubs in the UK. Our server Lawerence definitely helped with his English accent! When asked where he was from, he said Bristol! He came to Canada after her sister relocated. He originally was a cook, but given his accent, they asked hi. To move to the front! Well done. He was a great server too! Very friendly! We decided to share the sausage rolls and shepherds pie. My husband had two Guinness! I'm not sure where he put it in top of the wine, but glad I was driving. The sausage rolls were very tasty. The mustard that came for dipping was the perfect accompaniment. The shepherd's pie had a dark Guinness gravy that was rich and flavorful. I enjoyed the side of peas and carrots too! Sharing these two was the perfect amount, however we wished we'd got the poutine! It looked amazing, it would've been too much food though. Guess we will need to return! PS: loved seeing the sign for Upper Canada Brewing company! In 1988, I visited them with my college partner as we did a college paper on microbrewers! At that time, they were one of a few. We also had visited Great Lakes brewing in CLE! The microbrewing industry exploded shortly there after! Was a great personal walk down memory lane for my college days!! While Upper Canada was sold, was just excellent to see an old sign!

    While staying in the area I looked at reviews for something decent and came across this place -…read moreGetting there around noon on a weekday, they were rather busy, so I sat at the bar and within a few minutes it was completely packed at the bar. Service from the bartender was great. He offered up some suggestions, which I needed because they have a large menu loaded with so many appetizing and amazing looking options. I started with their potstickers... They came out with a hard, fried shell and the dipping sauce went nicely with them. Enough to share, or even enough to enjoy and still have room for an entrée. My main dish was their Chicken & Waffle. This isn't some ordinary chicken and waffle, it's definitely an amped up version, made with unique and interesting ingredients, culminating in great flavors! The chicken was so large and very tender - it was amazing! The bacon and sauce on top went with it nicely, and the chive waffle was great with it! Each bite was definitely amazing! This was a great experience, I can see why they have so many reviews and such high stars, those are well-deserved stars!! Definitely recommend stopping in here!

    Service Food…read more Ambiance I had a lovely first-time dining experience at an American restaurant near Niagara Falls on a quiet Monday morning. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, which made it even more enjoyable. I ordered fried calamari along with single chicken wings tossed in an Asian sweet and spicy sauce--both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. The combination of crispy textures and bold flavors really stood out. What made the experience even better was the service. Our server was amazing--attentive, friendly, and truly great at her job. She made us feel welcome from the start. I always enjoy trying new places, and this visit did not disappoint. If you're looking for an American restaurant near Niagara Falls, this is definitely worth trying. We ended the meal with a delicious dessert,which was the perfect sweet finish to a great experience.
