“1-Follow up on reservations for my party by the restaurant hours ahead-and seating location was as requested.Notified we had two for service that day -Catt /Makayla .2-Informed both-we were catching up our once a month chit/chat and they informed us of the menus - etc —choices were made on our part with both of them checking on our various selections and keeping things flowing all the time.-questions of changing salad dressings with our selections-just one of the changes after that a few more but never gave the suggestion to us that it was any problem.-Several times we were asked how are things going-was there any thing we did not have or do we wish to change anything that was just not what we thought we were Ordering from the menus. We said no and they said enjoy your time .We did and again we left knowing that is a place in Barrie you might wanted to add to seek and find list of where to eat in Barrie,Ontario soon.”

“My wife and I visited Jack Astor's on Aug. 16/25 and had an amazing experience!! From the very beginning where we were greeted by the smiling, cheerful hostesses, to our dinner, to the very end when we said our good-byes to the hostesses again, our visit was great!! Our server, Cohen, deserves special mention because he made our dinner a great one!! From his greeting to the end, he was always attentive and courteous but not overly so as some can do! Also, the whole staff deserves a shoot-out because someone was always clearing away plates, etc. Cohen, thank you for all your efforts in making the dinner an enjoyable one!!! We will definitely return to Jack Astor's Barrie in the future!
Thanks from Brad and Connie!”

“This place is the best for Thai! you know its good when the menu is small, because its well curated and they put so much love and care into each dish! Delicious and can't wait to try more.”

“What a great experience. Had a small work meeting here. The simulators were accurate with some cool technology (moving lie platform, swing video). Most importantly the food was incredible, best I've ever had at any golf simulator. Candice, the owner was extremely accommodating and really made our event a great experience. She could also teach us all a thing or two about golf. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back soon.”

“This steakhouse absolutely blew me away. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like VIPs—warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making our experience unforgettable. The service was flawless, with just the right balance of professionalism and friendliness. But the real magic? The back patio. 🌿✨ It's a serene escape—beautifully lit, spacious, and perfect for a relaxed evening under the stars. Whether you're sipping a cocktail or savoring a perfectly cooked ribeye, the ambiance elevates everything. The steaks themselves? Out of this world. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can tell they take pride in sourcing quality cuts and mastering the grill. If you're looking for a place that nails both atmosphere and culinary excellence, this is it. I’ll be dreaming about that patio and steak combo until my next visit.”

“The food was amazing and the staff were fantastic. My children didn’t order from there as they are at the age of not willing to try new things. She brought out samples for my children to try and they will be ordering next time as well. Can’t wait to go back.”

The appetizers were delicious and I was hopeful for the meal but my chicken avocado sandwich was a bit dry - asked for extra mayo to help with that. The fries were good, as was the salad, and the chocolate pecan torte was AMAZING! The waitstaff were lovely, so professional, and friendly. Overall, a good experience and a perfect venue for a small wedding!”

“I've mostly gone to this specific location for breakfast. They have a great price on breakfast, and it's always prepared well. The staff is nice, and the restaurant is clean. Update 9 years later - this place is great.”

“After I heard my son’s Allison and Michelle snickering about my sexuality I had to show them I was a man’s man, and fast. It all started when my wife would leave for her over night shift and I’d have a couple of my pals over for Greco Roman wrestling night. My kids would hear the grunts and groans but they never believed me that we were just wrestling. I started bringing home ice caps to show them I was hip and cool but the addiction got so bad. Like many of you, I downloaded grinder and started meeting up with men for coffees and such. Long story short my wife has full custody of the kids and I have to move out in 2 weeks. Anyone want to meet up for a coffee?”

“quality food”

“The odd time they get the odd order wrong. Just like every tim hortons, I don't know whether it's a language barrier or what it's always good to have fast service, but it's worse when it's wrong, slow down, do it right the first time.”

“Out of all the Tim Hortons in Barrie this is the best one. All the workers are lovely and sweet, my order is always done right. This location also has the best birthday cake timbits. My friends and I always refer to this location as “the good Tim Hortons””

“props to this staff!! as an ex tim's worker ur drive thru is FAST and drinks are always made right. special thanks to the kind older lady working who gave me a bunch of $1 surveys 💕”

“Friendly staff,

Oct 3, 2025 - I received the best service today I've ever experienced at an a&w. The moment I mentioned food allergy the employee instantly inform the rest of the staff that there was a food allergy and that they must wash their hands.
This employee deserves an award!!”

“Great experience at this location! Spotlessly clean, mobile order was prepared exactly as ordered and the two staff I interacted with were polite, friendly and conscientious. We’ll make this our go-to Timmy’s again for our cottage drive.”

“Beautifully renovated with a clean, modern feel—like a wholesome fast food chain done right. The best part is the spacious, open-concept layout that avoids any sense of claustrophobia.

*Get there early before all the dream donuts are gone! 🍩😂”

“Always feel bad for the night guys, already getting slammed with online orders, he had 6 to do, plus customers in store, all by himself. I'm sure they're not making enough money for that, thanks for the hard work guys.”

“Osmows. Great fast med chow. Chicken rox is the go to…fast service friendly staff and the chow is always simple and good. Large is good for two meals….and marginally more than a regular size.”

“Only 5 stars so people will see this, On August 18th, at approximately 9:16 a.m., while I was using the restroom, an unidentified individual, who appeared to be a white male in his late 50s, violently shook the stall door (to the extent that it seemed it might break) and attempted to open it. Eventually, he somehow managed to open the door and made a gesture indicating that I should leave immediately.

Although I acknowledge that I had been in the stall for some time, I was experiencing stomach pain due to digestive issues and was using the facility for that reason. Even if the other person was in a hurry, such behavior cannot be overlooked.

Furthermore, I am 13 years old, and therefore I inevitably perceive this matter with the utmost seriousness.
If this review is reported and removed, I will proceed to formally raise this issue with McDonald’s. In the past, I have disregarded several problems and instances of unfair treatment, but this matter is something I absolutely cannot overlook.”

“Service was A1. Lisa in particular was very friendly and provided excellent customer service. I went inside for sweet and sour sauce while waiting for our drive thru order. She noticed I came in and confirmed what my order was and said next time just to let her know so I wouldn't have to come out in the cold. Then she added an extra one into our bags.

Food wise, our breakfast sandwiches were carefully put together, not messily tossed like many other locations. Everything was hot and straightened.”

“Thanks so much to Fox’s for donating 50 sub sandwiches to The Ride For Refuge in support of Elizabeth Fry Society !!! They were delicious and we are so grateful! 💜”

“We love the food here, we are repeat customers!!”

“Signed up to get some frustrations out. I had a great time. Shakira talked to me for quite a while after and really made me feel like I was an old friend. Very therapeutic and I'll definitely be back!”

“Visited for the 1st time on Saturday! They had a live band which had me dancing! We ordered fish tacos and enmoladas for our main course which were absolutely delicious and came out really quick even with the 3 large parties they had. All the staff and our server were super friendly as well 😊 I tried 3 different cocktails which were all made perfectly and we stayed for dessert which we don’t normally have but the atmosphere was excellent and we were having a great time! Would highly recommend for a date night and will definitely be back soon!”

“Husband and I recently relocated from the Maritimes, stopped in for breakfast and we were not disappointed! Friemdly and promt greetings, quick seating, great atmosphere and decor, amazing and diligent staff. Barrie location is more than happy to accommodate those with needing smaller portions as an adult. Our server went above and beyond any service we have received back home. even heard her communicate with the chef directly, and when an ingredient wasnt available, instead of taking it off the menu for the day, someone ran out and actually picked up said ingredient .. top notch guest service! We cannot wait to go back and try their lunch menu!”

“This is my favorite place and the chicken dum biryani is very delicious. It made the new year evening so special to have my dinner at this place with the friendly staff. Thank you ☺️”

“Great service amazing food and big potions…loved it❤️”

“You should go to Fil's. We stopped in and had a 5/5 burger, a 5/5 BLT, and 5/5 fries. The burger was hot, juicy, and flavorful. Also generously sized. The BLT was made perfect with crispy bacon and lettuce and tomato of superior quality. The fries were delicious too. There's a hot sauce that's complex and tasty and well worth trying. And the welcoming friendly atmosphere was amazing. Will be back for sure whenever I'm in town.”

“I just stopped in for a couple of cheeseburgers and potatoes fries. I wish you could call and place an order for pick up so you don't have to wait after work... But if that's my issue, I'm doing good!!! I forgot pictures, burgers were great - my fussy mother ate the entire thing commenting on how great the bun was.”

“We just moved into the area and ventured out on a walk with our kiddos to try some of the local shops and found Jake’s Bakes. Wow!! We loved everything about our first visit. Jake is so lovely and kind, and really hit it off with our kiddos. The lemonades were so refreshing and yummy. And the BAKED GOODS — don’t even get me started because they’re delicious — every single one that we tried! We have decided that we’re going to frequent Jake’s Bakes for a coffee and a baked good as a weekend treat whenever we can!”
