A HUGE RAVE to Natasha, 2 other servers (sorry I didn’t get your names) and the one and only cook at the JINGLE POT PUB on the Sunday July 24 (bathtub weekend). I called so many places for a 70th birthday lunch for my mom with 11 people and nobody would take reservations. When I called the Jingle Pot Pub and gave them a quick heads up we were coming they went out of their way to get us patio seating all together under an awning and accomdate us on super short notice as the other restaurant fell through due to short staffing and a long line. The staff at JP pub were over the top even though they were also short staffed! The food was awesome, the prices were great and the service was spectacular!! Not only did they get everything out in impeccable time, they served with smiles and were incredibly accommodating!! Hats off to al the staff working that day…only 4!! Would definitely recommend!!! Thank you all so SO much for making my mom’s birthday lunch the best!!

Tonight we got the JP Appy Platter and everything was good on it but my favourites were the deep fried pickles, onion rings & chicken strips!Since it was wing Wednesday ordered some and the lemon pepper & sweet Thai wings were very good. Big wings. Salt & pepper were okay but others were great.We highly recommend this place! Coming back again for sure!

food is very good and the service, they do not mind questions of the menu, we go during the day not at night its quieter there for us love the wings and the burgers and fries

We enjoyed a Thai chicken salad and the 1-piece cod and fries. Real human sized portions, great flavors, and the fries perfectly done and not limp watery things.Server was friendly and efficient.

Terrific night! Went Friday night for kerioky (sp?) Service was friendly and excellent, food was very tasty, entertainment was delightful, all around a great tie. Hope to see you there next time. Hopefully by then I will have found my bucket with a tune in it and can sing! Lol

Great food and prices. Good service love attending craft classes also. 5.00 beer is great. Salad was large.

We have enjoyed this pub off and on, once or twice a year for 25 years or more. However, today was horrible. The tomato soup was white, no tomato taste and some sort of clumps of white stuff and a bit of white cheese.Sent it back, no problem. The Caesar salad was unbelievably soaked in dressing with clumps of bacon? So much so that the lettuce was sloppy and droopy..no crispness, literally a side Caesar with 3/4 cup of the white bacon and dressing! and the croutons were soaked from the dressing..Ate what I could, told the server, she was lovely, gave me a discount which I did not want or ask for, but wanted them to see and know how bad it was, the cooks response was that there are lots of other people who like it??? Husbands burger and fries were good!! Pretty sad meal.

I found the service and food quality above other pubs I have been to. The service was very good and I ordered the fish burger which was very good. I will go back and do recommend this place

Food was good with decent portions. Staff seemed pleasant but very rushed. Good selection of pub fare and equally good selection of craft and domestic beers on tap.
