I was part of a group of twenty on a Monday afternoon. As a group we all moved around chatting etc. The staff were fantastic, quick with drinks and then with the food. Eveyone commented how great the staff handled us as a group.

First time there and i went twice this week lol! Love this place! My first visit, my hamburger was quite overcooked but my second visit, had a Reu-tine Poutine, delicious. Their espresso martini is also very good. Atmosphere is kind of sports bar/pub, so a hit with me?

The excellent service and good food is doing all the heavy lifting on this review.
Man, was the "trivia night" ever irritating to sit through with dinner. I don't know why they decided to blast the speakers out to the patio when only people in the bar were participating. It was so loud I could barely hear the person right next to me.

Vegetarian options: The veggie burger and fries was quite good!

Stopped in for lunch a few times now, always great service and fantastic food. I'm particularly fond of the Cobb salad. Our server Kayden was very professional and attentive. Great place.

Whole experience was lacklustre-service and food very underwhelming. Much better options in Orillia and I now totally understand why the one in Barrie closed down. Very expensive and service was disappointing

Parking: Not much around have to hunt a little

This place is a mystery! I wonder if whoever pays the electric bill knows that they keep the air conditioning on legit 55°. They were busy outside but not a single soul inside because it’s so cold. Food and service was great but they are losing business because it’s so cold. Our server was new and awesome.

The beer was flat on two different taps.

Nachos were great.

This place seems old even though it just opened. Washrooms were smelly and strange. The whole place has an old and damp feeling.

My husband and I recently visited Fionn MacCool's, hoping to enjoy a nice dinner. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed by our experience due to a lack of service.

After being seated, we waited for 20 minutes without any acknowledgment from the waitstaff. We decided to inform a server that we had not been waited on, hoping to receive assistance. The server spoke with the other waitstaff, but instead of taking action, they simply discussed our presence and ignored us as they continued to serve other tables.

After waiting an additional 10 minutes with no service, we decided to leave and find another place for dinner. It seemed like the staff were either overwhelmed by a busy night or not properly trained to handle the situation. There also appeared to be a lack of managerial oversight.

Unfortunately, we never got a chance to try the food, so we can't comment on its quality. The poor service made it impossible for us to experience what the restaurant has to offer.

The food was not memorable, but our waiter was very helpful and attentive. We had naked wings, a side caeser salad, and a side of fries.
The wings were overcooked and dry. The salad was mostly romaine ribs, but the fries were nice. The decaf coffee was fresh and tasted good.

Was seated in the bar area and waited for almost a half hour without even being noticed, never mind served.
Staff aren't very attentive and seem to spend more time chatting with each other than serving customers.
Thanks for the free parking while I walk across the street to Studabakers.

My husband and I visited Fionn’s today in Orillia and had wonderful service from Rachel! She was quick, efficient and friendly. She helped with recommendations and was so personable. Would recommend her anytime and the food was great to boot! Thank you Rachel!! You’re awesome!
