“My friend and I drove to B-Side Social from Niagara after winning a dozen free oysters and it did not disappoint! The oysters were so good we ordered an additional dozen along with the caprese salad and it was phenomenal! All of the staff was amazing. The owner (I think) or at least the GM came and chatted with us a few times, she had great energy! Our server Autumn was super cute and did a bang up job! Will def recommend and return!“

“Didn't go in with many expectations but my brother told me this place was great. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted with a very cool aesthetic. The restaurant is an old farmhouse that's been fully converted and each room still retains the feel of whatever type of room it previously was but with it's own unique character. There's a lot of fun Canadiana decor throughout the restaurant and the menu (we came for breakfast) had a lot of staples with unique and elevated twists (I had a delicious benny). It's a bit off the beaten path, but definitely worth it!“

“So, I love diners, and wimpy's is that in spades. The service was fantastic, the food was great, my poutine came a little cold, but a minute with chef Mike fixed that right up.

Serena, the waitress, was also fantastic, very attentive and polite.

I miss the table-side jukebox controller, and the freemium YouTube music was a little weird as opposed to just tuning a radio to a classic oldies station.

In short. Good food, good staff, and a good place to eat.“

Elyse, brado, and there server who served us (updated once we get his name) (Feb23 @12am) are especially hardworking and who put effort in treating their guests. As someone who is a server in this industry, we can see who puts effort into their work and who enjoy it. This is a well community based restaurant with multiple connections with one another so I deeply respect, recommend, and appreciate the people who work here. We'll always be back for the people who work they're hardest here.“

“Went in for the burger deal. The girl who took our order (Mya) was very pleasant. The girl who dressed our burgers (sorry I didn’t get her name) was great and did not skimp out on the pickles! I was happy to see the Christmas decor still up and the music still playing. The restaurant was clean and when I mentioned there were no napkins they got some out right away. I will return to this location.“

“My friend and I had an early dinner tonight at the location at 735 Queenston Rd, in Hamilton. Our server was Madeline and she was just great. Have not seen her there before but she was such a great server, humerous, kind and helpful in making our choices. The baked potatoes needed five minutes to go before they were reeady and she was apologetic but it was well worth the wait. Everything was hot and fresh and Madeline made our visit there delightful. We were there from 4 until 5:00 if this is helpful. We do go there a lot but this meal was absolutely the best. Top rating today, without a doubt.“

“A delightful return to Harvey's after 20+ years! The burger was spot on, with a patty that captured the essence of Harvey's. The curly fries, though, stole the show - crispy, salty, and utterly addictive 😋. Would definitely recommend them. 👍 4/5 stars - a tad more sauce would be great 🤷‍♀️.“
