Amazing experience and atmosphere. Quality breakfast. Thank you for the great service. Reasonable prices. This place is located cross from Holiday Inn about 3 minutes walk but worth a walk. It’s a place to try if you’re in town.
Went in for the first time for takeout ordered a jacks fish n chips 1 piece with beans overall very good the beans could use less sauce its like a soup mushy texture fries were excellent but the fish was way too greasy as you can see from the top of the box besides no complaints besides a prompt for a tip for takeout I don't mind tipping for good service but thats for dine in would definately go back
We stopped here after an outing at Dino Land to enjoy a late lunch and cocktail. We chose to enjoy a table on the outdoor patio which is located across from what I believe is a park, a festival was in process so we were able to enjoy some of the music that was being performed. Washrooms were in need of a little fresh up but were clean. Our food was good, fries are real, some of the better fries I’ve had in awhile. Our servers were fantastic, made our luncheon a good experience! Would recommend a stop here if you’re visiting Peterborough!!
Delicious, fresh fish and a pleasant ambiance are hallmarks of this chain location. The haddock and catch of the day are well-prepared and the portions sizes are very good for the price. Both dine-in and takeout are available with ample seating inside, and the staff are very friendly and happy to assist! Definitely worth stopping by if you're in town!
The food was so good . I got the Chicken and Ribs combo with coleslaw and sweet potato fries on the side. I do not regret this, and this was my first time here. The chicken and ribs were well seasoned and well cooked. Tender and juicy, it went well with the honey-garlic sauce. The coleslaw was fresh and tasted good. The sweet potato fries were so crunchy and yummy. Surprisingly, this whole plate cost less than $30. Neat environment, a lovely aesthetic, a friendly waiter, and quick food preparation.
