Enjoy one of Canada's original roadhouse restaurants, with Canadian favourites like double stacked burgers and unforgettable chicken wings. At Kelsey's the beer is always cold and a game is always on.

Had the opportunity of dinning here with friends prior to seeing a movie on Tuesday night.We were seated shortly after 5 and at that time the restaurant only had 2 couples seated. As time progressed by 6 the restaurant had filled up but there was still only one waitress working, hats off to this lady she kept all the balls in the air until help arrived shortly after 6.We all ordered burgers that had a different twist to them and were all very good.The restaurant is neat and clean and all staff we came in contact with ver very friendly and helpful

Went here as our daughter was here with her friends doing a âPaint Niteâ class. WOW!!! We will be returning! The food was AMAZING! We had coconut shrimp, which were very good, crispy and fresh. I had the Philly cheesesteak sandwich with Caesar salad....OMG!!! It was to die for! I honestly think it was the best cheesesteak Iâve had! The Caesar salad was really good too, nice fresh green leaves and dressing was delish! My husband had the Reuben sandwich (he is really picky about this, as he hates when itâs fatty!), he loved it! It was lean and very very good. Also, the prices are super reasonable, which is an added bonus. The owner even came over and had a chat with us. He was very friendly and personable. All the staff were friendly and efficient.Already craving that sandwich!!!See you soon guys :)

Have been dining at The Collins for years. Very good food, very nice servers, especially John, and one of the best patios for miles around. I love the Jumbalaya. Delicious. All of their other foods are very good. The Collins Brewhouse is in the oldest continuous hotel in Ontario. Come and enjoy a Dundas Hotspot.

A pub menu with flair best describes the food selection at Southcote 53, and it wonât take you long to see what this means. "We are dedicated to provide our customers with tasteful experiences - including great food with unique menu items," is Unique Rest

I had a family member down from Ottawa and we got the chance to go out for dinner. I had been here a few years ago and it was good so thought this was a good option for us. Totally disappointed. The food was not good. The wonton nachos were awful! The fries were good but small portion. Was pretty bummed. From the reviews lately it looks like something needs to be done about the quality of food.

A British style pub serving Fish & Chips. Whatâs next, Bangers & Mashed? Mushy Peas? YUP! The whole gambit. Itâs styled just like most pubs. Dark in some corners. Busy close to the bar. Very good sized portions and excellent price. Great place for an inexpensive date night meal. Wonât break the bank for sure. Also a well stocked bar for âadult beveragesâ.There were several âtake outâ deliveries picked up while were there so the menu seems portable.

We had a delightful late lunch here yesterday. We were seated on the sun-dappled patio with various herbs in the nearby planters. Our choices were the cured trout, Reuben spring rolls, and meatloaf. The trout was superb. The Rueben spring rolls were creative and tasty. The meatloaf was comfort food but honestly, we can make a meatloaf just as good at home. We will definitely return for an encore.

My wife and I, visited the Symposium Cafe/Restaurant on Rymal Rd., Hamilton, this morning. We have enjoyed excellent dinners here previously, but this morning was our first breakfast visit. We were greeted nicely by a young waitress upon our arrival. We perused the breakfast menu while we were served hot coffee. We ordered the eggs Florentine and we were very impressed. This establishment is antiseptically clean and the decor is very welcoming. A good bunch of breakfast customers attributed to the popularity of this restaurant on Rymal Rd. We will return for certain !!

Nothing fancy - just tucked in the corner of a strip mall. No special ambiance, but comfy seating and lots of TV's to watch the game.Food was good - flatbread pizza was piled high with toppings and the perogies were delicious. The flight of beers and ciders were a steal - 3x 10 oz glasses for $12.Gets a bit noisy with a big crowd during a game, but maintains a good neighborhood vibe.

The patio for this place is so cute and cozy - but it was a rainy day so we sat indoors. Itâs a small interior, so it wasnât possible to escape all the fussy baby noises. Not the restaurantâs fault! But itâs condensed seating, so just beware if youâre wanting a romantic experience that it may be affected. Itâs a cool, old timey interior with loads to look at, but per the other review I read of here, it could use a cleaning/dusting and there are a lot of flies everywhere. Sweet potato fries were on point! But the quesadilla was so soggy on the bottom it wasnât much fun, (probably microwaved to melt cheese). The service was average. Wine prices are very very high. $17 for a 9 oz of Stoneleigh is among the highest prices in the area - especially for a small pub. If I were in the area, Iâd pick Brassie Pub 10/10 times. (Also, the ceiling seriously looked like itâs buckling. Kids running upstairs sounds resonate in the dining area.)
