Had a pulled pork burger and watched the creek burble by on an overcast spring day. We really enjoyed the location and view.

The place has a nice country look to it, plenty of parking. Our waitress took for ever to come to the table and when she did , she forgot 2 out the 6 drinks we asked for, we had to wave her down to the rest. The food was fast but inedible , had no taste. We've been there 3 times, cause everyone has a bad day, but all 3 time we had the same experience.

Had a nice dinner with friends on a Friday night. Place was definitely busy but I don't think there was any wait for a table. Food was good, the poutine was fantastic. Service was very slow thought, extremely friendly but super slow. We were not in a rush so it really didn't bother us much except for not getting a second round of drinks (including water) until our meals finally came out

We enjoyed Easter Brunch at Babbling Brook this past Sunday. It was our first time there, and we will definitely be back to try out the regular menu.We arrived to find an Easter basket, with pastries and candies in it for us to enjoy. After a few minutes, we ordered and received our drinks and then headed to the buffet.There was a really nice assortment of options. Breakfast included eggs, French toast, Belgian waffles, pancakes, homemade sausage, bacon, and homefries. Also, bagels with cream cheese and lox, a variety of fruit, and caprese salad.Lunch items included cocktail shrimp, green beans, ham, scalloped potatoes, baked salmon, the most delicious short rib, and pesto tortellini. There were also chicken nuggets and mac and cheese for the kids and an assortment of desserts.The service was courteous and friendly, with plates removed regularly before we went back up. Pretty sure my husband got his money's worth just in the amount of short rib he ate (I have to admit, it was amazing).There is a beautiful outdoor area as well for the warmer months and a deck for outside dining.Definitely recommend checking this place out if you haven't been.

Been here twice and the food hits the spot and the drinks don't cost an arms and a leg

food and waitress were exceptional. we felt bad for her as it appeared she was the only waitress working on a Sunday afternoon. Word of advice, don't order fountain soda or water. They have sulfur water and it wasn't good. they do not have diet soda bottled only regular. overall a good experience

We ate there last month. This was by far the worst dining experience I've had in five years. I'm going to make this brief The place was cold, our server was none existent. Everything that we ordered, including appetizers was brought out at once. The food was incinerated , that's why it was called The Fireman's something. Awful Awful However the location is beautiful. That's the only reason we will go back and that will be for cocktails

This place is a gem in the middle of nowhere you would typically travel. Worth the excursion.

Nice atmosphere, pretty good service, food not consistent. First time I went there, 4 people all great. Next visit, 2 of us ,1 good the other tough steak. 3rd visit, 6 people, most meals overcooked, greasy, to much or to little sauce, gravy,ect. 4th and final time: 2 people, dry chicken, tough meat on the Reuben. Won't be back.......

Food is usually pretty good although some items on the menu can be bad (avoid the Philly steak wrap). The service is good and there are usually quite a few beers on tap.
