"Friends and I attended the first Karaoke program at the Boatworks last night. Another venue couldn't have provided a better 'evening out.' The entertainment was 'TOP HAT' and so was the food. The servers were above and beyond. Thank you, Boatworks and 'Karaoke Bob' for such a GREAT evening!!! Can't wait to return! First time to try a 'bison burger' and was so pleasantly surprised... thought it may have a wild game taste, but it was tender, juicy, flavorful and downright delish!"

"It's ok. Napkins and garbage on the floor for the duration of our visit. Menu items are unclear as to what they are. Beer was warm. Seating was rather uncomfortable in the indoor space. I understand that it's a new establishment and there are some kinks to iron out. The space has great potential, and I have hope that they'll figure out the small details that make a top notch experience. Edit: noticed an overall improvement"

"First time there, couldn't wait to go and when we went it was super busy with only 2 ladies to serve and take orders. The burgers were good the fish was superb my 2 yr grand daughter loved it. The gobbler was good pssst (more sauce) yummm but..... having said that I really don't think they anticipated that their little coffee house would would explode with a summer food truck the way it did, so well done can't wait to see what happens!!!"

"Very nice little spot. Clean, unique with background music. Great service. Servers are friendly and accommodating. Food came fast wings are good and tasty sauce if you like the them smoked , but bison burger is definitely worth trying could use a tomatoe on top. Fries could be better. Try cavendish’s from Costco. Crispier and soft inside.. Big choice of drinks with beers cocktails… I believe it’s their specialty."

"A rare occurrence for me to give five stars. This place ticked all the boxes. The atmosphere is cozy. The servers are efficient and friendly. Prices are spot on. Most importantly the food was very good. Hugh basket of wings for only 14$ and yummy poutine for only 7$. And best of all VERY celiac friendly. They even have gf bbq sauce. With the fast rise in Celiacs disease I hope other restaurants in the region take a lesson from this great place! Would be nice if they added gf beer. (There is a local gf brewery in the area. Hint hint )"
