A group of six of us visited on this occasion. The staff were very friendly and helpful during our visit. The place had lots of customers but still lots of space for more. It was very clean and washrooms were well maintained and even have automatic taps, soap and dryers. The five different Minu items we purchased was excellent, hot and tasty. We had no situations during our visit.

Came here for dinner and started with some calamari, wasnt bad but not the best I've had. Could use a bit more spice as it didn't taste like much.For my main dish I ordered their Hot Alberta Beef sandwich with fries. It had a good portion of beef with gravy all over. Very good and very filling. Highly recommend this.Overall the service was fast and friendly. Great place to go gor lunch or dinner.

Seated promptly- beverages arrived right away- ordered lunch but it took a little longer than usual for our order to come and the place had about 10 percent or less of tables with patrons- meal was decent- wife had a sandwich and I tried the chilli dog- very filling and quite tasty- Server was friendly and prompt I’d try it again when in the area

I visited Pickering location this Thursday. I will rate 3 start for my experience. Food was great, servings were good size and price are reasonable. However drinks are worst than any restaurant,I have ever visited.We ordered classic red wine sangria and blackberry & basil whisky smash. Both of the drinks were sweet as hell. It felt like I am driking straight sugar syrup. When we told server that drinks are extremely sweet, she smiled, nodded and walked away. Thereafter just to refresh our taste and enjoy great food, we ordered a Corona Beer. Thinking nothing can go wrong with beer. Guess what, lime on the top of bottle was rotten. Like it was lying there for last 7 nights.In short, Go for food, stay away from drinks at this location.

I was into the Pickering location with some friends on May 18/22 for lunch & had the Fiesta Bowl with Shrimp. Description says it was supposed to have Chipotle sauce & cheeses & I gotta say although it was pretty good, I certainly didn't taste any chipotle & I didn't see or taste very much of the cheese.

If you like our review please like us below. First time too this location and the place was fairly empty at lunch! Should have been first clue! First let me say that our server Cassandra was EXCELLENT! We both ordered the backbone dish of PB since we started going to PB decades ago! Rueben Sandwiches and Fries! WOW! What a disappointment! Thick to thin cut Corned beef so tough my wife tried to take a bite only to pull ALL the meat out of the sandwich which she could not bite through!!!! I said don't try to eat it we'll send it back! We called our server Cassandra over and she could see right away what the issue was. She said she will get it re done ASAP and asked if I tried mine. I bit into my sandwich and I also had a slab of inedible corned beef! She took both back and subsequently returned with two very different sandwiches. Very edible! We did find that the sandwiches were not nearly as good as the other PB we have been at and for $40.00 for two sandwiches we decided we will never come back to this PB! EVER! Highlight of the visit was our server Cassandra!

Ate a Mother's Day late lunch here today and was very pleased with the entire experience. Our server, George, was absolutely amazing, and made our day. Our meals were all very good. Myself, I had the meatloaf and the portion size was impressive and I was pleasantly surprised by the flavours. It was extremely busy but everything was very smooth.

This spot was picked for a family reunion with my siblings. Good choice. It wasn't too busy so we were seated right away. All food ordered came quickly and served hot. Large portions and great tasting. Waiter was very attentive. 3 of us had the meatloaf and it was amazing. Would order it again. Only issue was we had a reservation and they couldn't find it so we were glad it wasn't busy or we may have not been seated.

We were in town for a hockey tournament. We called ahead to say we had a group of 40, and they were very accommodating. The service was friendly and fast! The food is great for a large group!

6 people went for the dinner around 7.30 pm. All dishes were good not the best. I am giving 2 star only because our server did not pay any attention to us after dinner was served at all, not to ask even for drink refills. Place was virtually empty and not that he was busy serving others. He disappeared for long and when he came with bill, he stink with strong smoking smell making us very uncomfortable. We will not go back again.
