“Poco Burro is absolutely my favourite burrito place in Peterborough! They have a good selection of fresh toppings and sauces, and I always love to chat when I come in for my work lunch breaks (almost every day lol). Along with all the classic protein options like carnitas, pollo asado, and barbacoa, they actually have a solid selection of vegetarion options that go beyond just bean and cheese or sauteed veggies. Though their bean and cheese burrito is nothing to be slept on. If you're looking for a solid, reliable staple burrito place, you've found it.”
“Brothers Pizza did an amazing job catering for our lacrosse team! The pizza, wings, and salad were all absolutely delicious and a huge hit with both players and parents. Everything arrived hot, fresh, and right on time. We’ll definitely be ordering again — highly recommend!”
“I've been a loyal customer of this family owned restaurant since shortly after they opened. their perfectly seasoned Shawarma is the area's best, and they have some interesting regional offerings worth exploring. They offer great food, friendly service, and the premises are well kept. I recommend checking them out.”

“Excellent service and food! Our meat was cooked fresh on the spot for us. Will be returning!”
“Surprisingly delightful. All I had was a fish tiki naan as the daily special for under 10 bucks. But it was superb.”
“My aunt‘s favourite restaurant before she passed was Red Lobster. Our family decided to get together in her memory at one of our homes, and we asked Amir, manager of Peterborough Red Lobster if it was possible to have it catered. He enthusiastically jumped in, made suggestions. He actually organized the entire menu. 30 people gathered. The food arrived and it was magnificent. Such a variety. I am pretty sure it was almost everything from their menu and more!!! There was something for every guest to enjoy and they did. If anyone is thinking of hosting such an event, I would strongly recommend recommending contacting Amir and he had his kitchen crew will impress. Thank you, Amir and your staff.”

“This review reflects my opinion of the restaurant as a place to get a quick take-out pizza. I'm actually not happy with this Boston Pizza for messing up my order, but I appreciate the attempts to make it right well enough to recommend the place. The employees tried their best, and they were busy. $33 for a medium pepperoni pizza, though..? It was good pizza, sure, but not really worth it for quick take-out. I think you have to get a table and dine-in to fully appreciate the price.”
“We had a great experience at Kelseys! We visited on a Tuesday for the Kids Eat Free promotion, and it was definitely worth it. The service was excellent our waitress was so kind and welcoming to my daughter, which made our visit even more enjoyable. Our food arrived quickly, was hot, and tasted great. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we'll definitely be back”
“7+ years ago we dined here for our first date and never dreamed this restaurant could get any better. Well they proved us wrong. It was amazing!! Still the prettiest place inside! Best bruchetta & caesar salads we've had anywhere! Had to sample the lobster mac n cheese, seafood gorgonzola & Marty recommended the wagyu steak. He even brought the meat out to show us. It was a true beauty! Leftovers to take home, desserts, coffee & an espresso martini made this a meal we won't soon forget! We already can't wait to come back! ♡”
“This is easily my favourite restaurant in peterborough. Amazing food, amazing baked goods, amazing people.”

“Harmandeep is always so sweet and welcoming whenever I visit A&W. She greets everyone with a smile, is very kind, and makes customers feel comfortable. You can tell she genuinely cares about providing great service. It’s always nice being served by someone with such a positive attitude. Thank you, Harmandeep, for making every visit a pleasant one!”
“Always super fast and friendly staff, I don't quite understand the handful of negative reviews. I live locally and come here all the time, but then again, the 1 star raters must struggle with their everyday life if they have to complain about trivial issues.”

“amazing croissants, cookies and croissant sandwiches. yummy coffee and chai lattee is my favorite, they make it in house. all workers make a living wage and the owners bring awareness to important causes. Best place to get coffee and treats in Peterborough by far!”
“It is so yummy and delicious pizza i have ever tasted. I tried in "Dubai Mall" branch, they have well organized and a friendly staff. Strongly recommended for all of you, who are willing to eat Halal, Healthy, Hygienic and Tasty food. Looking for more yummy recipes.”
“Cheryl and the team helped us with a large delivery of coffee and donuts as treats for a local firm of accountants. The service was top notch and the feedback from the accounants was excellent. Thank you so much to you, and the team. Can't recommend them highly enough.”
“Nice, friendly staff and great food. However, should work to improve the ambience.”
“I was a little hurty then I walked into Gerti's and I got myself a deliciously cold beer with the best fish and chips I have ever had. They batter the fish then roll it in chips and the subsequent result is taste bud heaven. You gotta hit this place up.”

“As an out-of-town visitor I have to say that Peterborough is very lucky indeed to have a bakery like this. A local person recommended that as the best in town and the pastry I had (see photo) and the cinnamon bun did not disappoint. Looking forward to going again on my next visit!”
“Central Smith has bern a family favorite for years. Lots of options for different flavors. They always have a NSA option, which we really appreciate. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. There is a nice grassy area with picnic tables to sit and enjoy your ice cream.”
“We have been enjoying many meals at Berc’s over the past 6 years. We always look forward to our trips to Peterborough and Berc’s is always the highlight of the trip. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is always friendly and accommodating! The menu selection is superb and the soup, in our opinion, is worth the trip. In the rating system we would rate Berc’s at a 10++.”
“Kawartha ice cream is absolutely unbeatable! So rich, creamy, and packed with real flavor. You can really taste the quality ingredients. Whether you grab a scoop at a shop or buy a tub from the store, it's always a treat. Huge variety of flavors and they never disappoint. Easily my favorite ice cream brand in Ontario. Highly recommend!”
“My friend was ordering their meal (The Works & Pepsi) and the woman (Alexis) behind the counter knew that I was having trouble deciding so she gave me some recommendations. I wasn't sure about the truffle dressing so she provided me a sample and I ordered it with a Pepsi. I appreciated that small gesture as I was so hungry that I could not make up my mind. It was my first time at New York Fries in over a decade. Thank you!”

“Absolutely amazing experience at The Favourite Greek! My girlfriend and I both had the chicken souvlaki meal and the portions were huge. The potatoes were honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. On top of the great food, we had the best server named Grace. She was so friendly and made the whole experience even better. We’ll definitely be coming back for the food and to see her again!”
“Had a great experience at 241 Pizza today.The pizza was fresh, hot, and loaded with toppings. The crust was perfectly baked and the flavors were spot on. Service was quick and friendly, and the overall quality exceeded expectations. Definitely coming back again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great slice .”

“The Railyard Cafe completely knocks it out of the park. The Duck Confit was exceptional—perfectly shatter-crisp skin and incredibly tender meat. The Gnocchi was pillowy and tossed in a velvety white wine cream sauce. Don't skip Herb’s Flank Steak either; the marinade is robust and the red chimichurri gives it a fantastic kick. Service is welcoming and attentive. This East City hotspot is affordable and a must-visit!”
“The best Greek food in Peterborough. The spanakopita is absolutely amazing. Staff are personable and the atmosphere is so welcoming. Highly recommend”

“We ordered some pizza’s through Skip the Dishes.. Skip the Dishes misrepresented the pizza I ordered, so needless to say I was disappointed when it arrived.. I called Papa’s Pizzaland and they said that Skip the Dishes had made a mistake.. I contacted Skip the Dishes and they gave us a credit.. 25 mins later we see someone pull into our driveway.. It was Papa’s Pizzaland delivering the pizza we originally wanted in a larger size for no charge..!! What amazing customer service.!! My recommendation, order directly through Papa’s Pizzaland and avoid the Skip the Dishes issues…”
“I simply want to say that the staff that work at this Tim Horton location are absolutely amazing. They deal with so many eclectic human beings and they all do their very best each and every day. I have watched both the staff and the owners come and speak with individuals and help them when they can. The other day there was a lovely, timid, young woman in this store and both a man, who was very careful not to intrude and the owner (female) spoke to the young woman and helped her through a serious crisis (she was obviously physically abused). They sat with the young girl and at one point, I did hear part of the conversation where both the owner and the gentleman were brough to tears and I then followed. These individuals who work at this Tim Hortons care, work VERY hard and deal with A LOT each day. I ask that the patrons of this restaurant appreciate that and treat each member of this Tim Hortons team with the respect that they deserve. There are certainly times when persons have had to be asked to leave but welcome to our world and it is handled as best as it can be. Thank you for letting me share my experience Rhonda”

“Not only is the food incredible, but the service at TNT Taters is absolutely on point. The staff is fast, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Even when they're busy, they keep the energy high and make sure your food comes out hot, fresh, and exactly how you ordered it. Great vibes and excellent hospitality—they make you feel like a regular from day one!”

“I recently used Tracey's That's A Wrap catering to provide food for 100 people at a surprise birthday party at The Peterborough Rugby Club building at Nicholls Oval.. I had rented the fully licensed clubhouse for the occasion ,and as it happens ,she is the sister of the part-time bar manager at the club ,Kait .This made things very easy to coordinate the occasion .EVERYONE wanted to know who did the food and complimented the quality ,variety and taste .As well as sumptuous wraps, there were fruit ,veggie and pickle trays ,as well as spring rolls ,and varied deserts . Tracey volunteered to help get things going for the first hour of a three hour party, and she left right at the end ! That was service way beyond expected.. She had some food left over and this was taken to facilities in town which she knew would use it .No waste !! I would certainly recommend Tracey for any future similar occasions and parties. She has to be the best in town !”

It’s clear Austin takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about customer experience. Excellent service like this is what keeps people coming back. Highly recommend this location!”

“We went in for a late evening meal as we had a free pizza from the spin to win game they had when you checked in, it sealed the deal instead of driving around looking for something to eat...We had been flying and driving all day, so tired and hungry and thirsty🍹🥗🍕 I asked for a margarita and thinking it was just a hotel restaurant, I would get a typical slushy drink. Our waiter, LIAM, made me a real, on the rocks, golden margarita, i didnt ask for it on the rocks... he made it just like I like it!👍 Its hard to find a good bartender and service person who cares how to make a proper drink and show good, attentive service! He did amazing! We were super surprised!
The Ceaser salad was huge and delicious and our pepperoni pizza was real good!
They had a lot of people on the outside patio for drinks and karaoke and that was enjoyable too.
The room was pleasantly nice, bathroom a little small but happy with the hotel. The hotel is pretty big, a little dated but they have a great pool and great staff at the front.”

“BEST MEALS I EVER HAD, first i get two boxes of nuggets in the happy meal so 4 extra nuggets, then i got two toys in the same box, then i move on to my 10 nugget box, i got 11 nuggets instead of ten. so in total i got 19 nuggets instead of 12, 2 toys instead of 1, and on top of all that food arrived in under 15 minutes, warm and person who dropped it off was REALLY nice 10/10”

“Probably the best in Peterborough right now. Cocktails are awesome, different and done well. Beer choices excellent. And the meals are varied, good portions, tastes I've never had before. Will be back with family and friends.”
“Came here with my husband tonight, he got chicken tenders and a poutine, ate them so fast I didn’t get a picture! He said they were very yummy, super soft and cooked to perfection. I got the cheeseburger with Fries and wow! 🤩 the fries were amazing and the burger was delicious could use a tad bit more seasoning but otherwise we enjoyed! Also grabbed the funnel cake after omg amazing!! Only complaint is the service she seemed very quiet and not too thrilled a bit rude when we were here… but we will definitely be back!!”
“stop in just about every Monday for the 1/2 price wings, always done to perfection. Looked after by Ashley, she is the best.”
