Our waitress (Oct3/25 ~ 2pm) wasn’t a happy camper. We waited a long time for service. She said she was the only one working, and we could see lots of people in the restaurant. With reason, she was stressed, so we tried to empathize with her situation and reassure her it was ok regarding the delay in service, but she never warmed up to us at all. It kinda put a damper on things. Also, the menu showed about 5 beers that were not available. The fish and pork tacos were both very tasty. The location is nice too, right by the river. We would enjoy the place more in the future if more waitresses were available.

This is a great little restaurant and pub inside the Rideau Sports Club. It has a huge patio wrapping around the building, and your allowed to bring dogs here. Inside there's plenty of comfortable seating and great music. The food is tasty and reasonably priced, and there's a decent selection of drinks. Happy hour from 3-5p offers some great discounts. The service is excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Excellent spot for great food. Service was fantastic and the food was delicious! I loved their menu options and the coffee! We went for breakfast! The restaurant has ample seating space with options for indoor or outdoor (weather permitting) seating.

Visited this place on a few occasions and this was the best visit yet. The service was great and the food was delicious! Not sure if they have a new chef but the food was the best it’s ever been. The atmosphere is good but it has so much potential to be cozier and more intimate, imo. Overall, I would recommend checking out The Bridge!

A great place to relax and unwind after work or a vigorous session on the courts. A nice friendly vibe both inside the restaurant and on the decks overlooking the property. Bar features special seasonal appropriate mixed drinks to suit the occasion.

This is right on the bike path, so after passing it a few times I stopped in Today. Surprising broad selection of Ontario craft beer. Eine and drinks are also on the menu. Food was the sandwich and salad staples, but also some korean chicken and an interesting nacho plate. I simply went with the wings with korean bbq sauce. It was excellent. Paired it with a pilsner from Dominion. Worth stopping for a bite or brunch if you are biking along the Rideau River.

It was a beautiful quaint location. Finding parking is atrocious. They share the lots with the Tennis club next door. The food was good. I think a corn blended tortillas would have made the tacos top notch

Cute little place tucked away. Worth the visit. Wings were quite tasty. Fish taco wasn’t bad either.
Service was quick. Food was quick.

The food is very overpriced and very low value. I had the avocado toast for $16, and they gave me one piece of cold bread without butter, topped with 5 pieces of red pepper from a costco jar and 4 tiny slices of avocado. It wasn't filling at all and it didnt tasteright because it was so cold.

We had a similar experience trying out their french toast - skimped on the egg.

Its a shame, because it's a beautiful place and the staff is really nice, but the food is ridiculous.
