While touring some visiting family members around the Bruce Peninsula, we stopped in Port Elgin for lunch and went into the Fireside Grill. This was a big mistake. The food was regular pub fare which we might have anticipated and probably would have accepted BUT the service was most unprofessional and ruined what might have been an agreeable lunch. We ordered two glasses of domestic, Cowbell, beer ( on tap). It took a while to receive them and the waitress did say that it had taken so long because they were changing the keg. Each glass looked different to the other and neither was the clear beer that was expected. It was cloudy and bitter and flat. When the beer was tasted, it was clearly the dregs of a keg or the top of a new keg. It should not have served to customers. The waitress was informed that it was not to our liking and she began arguing that it was always that way with craft beer. A seventy year old man who has been drinking beer for half a century should be able to make a judgment based on years of experience. Two glasses of Millerâs Light were ordered. This waitress was clearly angry and stomped to the bar repeating the story to the gentleman there and saying she was DONE.Later she, and another waitress, spent time sitting at the bar talking about their personal lives in very loud voices. What about the dining experience of the customers? It was not pleasant.

we thought we would try this place out for lunch, I had the classic burger and my wife had the sliders," 3 mini burger choices" my classic burger was juicy but just a tad under cooked, the double smoked bacon I asked for was over powering though, but our beer's were good, fries were great, and our server was exceptional. a must try out establishment, and like always you decide, cheers

A bustling place on the weekend we visited and it soon became clear why. Very good traditional breakfast fare and friendly and efficient service. Located on the main street , with lots of parking in the area, weâll add it to our list of favourite breakfast places.

Took the family here today after the Labour Day parade for some lunch. I must give credit where credit is due; the service is excellent. Both the owner and waitress were kind and very attentive. The food was good all around and the price was very reasonable.Hi, Paul! Thank you so much for the positive review! We are glad to see that you enjoyed your visit! We hope the next time you come we can provide you with a 5-star experience! See you and your family again soon!

Have tried to get take out a few times from this restaurant as it's just around the corner but every time I try to just get some chicken it's always more than a 40 minute wait for take out.. I can drive across town and get chicken from independent quicker! So that is what I did both times, it is frustrating , I could order well ahead of time I guess but I've had cold stuff from them and it wasn't anything special. Some people swear by the chicken here....maybe one day I'll get a chance to try fresh cooked stuff from them.
