13 Best Pubs near Lakefield

“Tucked away along the waterfront, this restaurant delivered one of the most satisfying dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. The view alone is worth the visit — calm water, a gentle breeze, and a sunset that felt like it was made just for us. But the real star here? The food. I ordered the double bacon and triple cheese burger, and it was everything you want in a guilty pleasure meal: juicy, rich, and stacked high with perfectly melted cheese and crispy bacon that somehow didn’t overpower the burger. The bun held everything together without getting soggy — a small detail, but a game-changer. Every bite was a mix of bold flavor and serious comfort. My girlfriend went with the steak, cooked medium-rare, and it was spot-on. Tender, juicy, and seasoned just right — no fancy sauces needed. It came with a side of roasted potatoes and asparagus. Service was friendly and relaxed — not rushed, but always attentive. Whether you’re out for a date night or just want to treat yourself, this place hits the mark on food, vibe, and location. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Had an absolutely amazing time at the porch and pint pub tonight. Penny sat us and served us and was absolutely wonderful. She checked in with us multiple times and made sure we were very well taken care of. Two mains were ordered, the shepherds pie and a BLT sandwich. Both were delicious and the shepherds pie was piping hot! Will definitely come back the next time we have the opportunity to come to town.“

“ribs and wing combo for 20 dollars was delicious highly recommend“

“Good pub food. I had the burger and salad and my wife had the chicken fingers. Good portion sizes and reasonable prices. Excellent service despite there being two large groups there. My only complaint is I wish they had a wider variety of beer on tap, instead of the standard Budweiser, Canadian, Coors types of beer. However, that's probably their market target so you go with the flow.“

“The best food I’ve tasted in a while. I was passing by with my friends to Ottawa and we saw Peterborough on the map. Just thought why not visit. First we were looking for a good place to eat and we sure did find one. Awesome tasting foods. I ordered half rack with wings and fries(10/10), Sam ordered Mac and cheese, which he said that he haven’t had one like this in forever(9.5/10)“
