Let me preface this with the fact that we love Tipsy Moose. We’ve been coming here for so many years and I’ve always had a great experience, food, drinks and service. However, as of today 3/8/25 at 1pm I wish I could give this a 0/5 stars. I’m not sure if the servers were training or what was the deal but the service was TERRIBLE. The bartender and waitress were unfriendly. We haven’t been here in a long time and were excited to come here today with family to have drinks and lunch. We ordered our drinks and watched the waitress and bartender talking for 10 minutes while our drinks sat on the service bar before she brought them over. We ordered our food and only one person’s food came out and it was lukewarm, and we never even saw the other food that we ordered hit the table. We had empty drinks. We were waiting for her to come back to refill them. So we asked her to bring us our check and when she did, it had the food on it that we didn’t even get. I said “thank you” to her, and she gave me a dirty look and did not mutter a single word out of her mouth. No apologizing or customer service whatsoever. Needless to say we likely won’t ever be back. What a shame!

Ordered cheeseburger Mac and cheese without tomatoes to go. Not only did I receive a heaping load of tomatoes I also got chicken in it?? Cheese sauce also has a strange “fruity” taste to it. Ate 3 bites and put it down. Idk what’s going on with there kitchen but I’m going to have to pass.. -Money was said to be refunded (waiting on confirmation)

My partner and I tried this place for the first time last night around 6:00PM and EVERYTHING we ordered was disgusting! I ordered a medium-well burger and it was burnt and dry with no flavor or seasoning. We ordered the poutine and it was day old French fries with hardened cheese and not cheese curds and it didn't have gravy on it! That's what makes poutine, poutine. We also ordered the chicken wings extra crispy garlic-parm flavored. They were so hard we could barely bite into them. Had no taste or seasoning. We also ordered onion rings and they weren't crispy. We spent $60 for everything. When my partner went to grab the food, the red-head was short with her and had an attitude. It wasn't even busy. Never going back. One and done. Keep your money. Food was gross. I don't understand how they received high ratings.

The food was not the best but the service and atmosphere were great!
I drove all the way here because I knew they are open late and love the lobster Mac n cheese. They decided to close down the kitchen early and refused to serve us. I drove 30 minutes to come eat but am only able to get drinks because the manager wouldn’t budge

This was a quaint place with a good pizza (we’ve never had maple syrup on a pizza before!). And you’ve gotta love the name.

When the food is good it’s good but the service has been progressively going down hill taking the food with it.
The last time we went there for sit down the staff didn’t put our order in as she “forgot and lost our ticket” told us a half hour after we first gave her our order. Then twice our take out order has been wrong with the selected sauces or burger styles being mixed up. Not worth the drive anymore.

The pulled pork Mac is edible but I didn’t really like it. I’m sure their pulled pork and Mac is good separately, just not together. Their cocktails and sangrias are overpriced tho. The service is kinda slow which is expected when the bar is busy
