“I had the best lunch today. I am not vegan, but I was travelling with someone who is, so we stopped for lunch. Not going to lie, I was skeptical as a non vegan, but I was shocked how wonderful my meal was. I got the Smokey Jackfruit Bowl. I wasn’t even sure what Jackfruit was, but omg if I didn’t live 4 hrs away I’d be back tomorrow to try the avocado toast, soft pretzel, the special tofu wrap and the mushroom Sammie. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be back, without or without my vegan colleague. Thanks for opening my eyes today to something new and really delicious!”

“I usually do not write reviews… Since this was the third event they did for us, Not putting up positive reviews would be totally ignoring their hard efforts. BUT I NEED TO SAY ABOUT ROSS & NIMESH from CHASKA INDIAN STREET FOOD. I contacted them just a few days before for my daughter's Baby Shower event. The minute I called NIMESH, he was so professional and detailed on the phone and connected me to ROSS.. that I signed up with him right away…AND I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION‼‼ They were there well in advance with perfect setup on the tables and the party was seamless.. The food was warm, fresh & delicious …I am still getting calls from friends about how good the food was. DO NOT HESITATE TO USE 'CHASKA' CATERING FOR YOUR NEXT PARTY…You will have a memorable experience.”

“Had dinner here with my partner and their parents, super enjoyable night! We were there pretty early on a Sunday evening so it wasn't crowded but the dining area was lovely! I liked the paintings by local artist as well as the fact they had an open kitchen.Our server, Amanda, was literally the BEST!! She was super friendly and knowledgeable on the food, just a great personality!The food came surprising fast, we probably spent more time debating then waiting lol. The table really enjoyed the two burgers and the falafel but found the wings a touch overcooked/tough. The wings were apparently greatly improved by the sauce which was by all account phenomenal!Overall a great place and 11/10 will come again!”

One Eighty Sports Pub 180 Hunter St W, Peterborough Pubs • $$
180 Hunter St W, Peterborough

“First visit today. I believe the menu has changed for the better since I last checked. I had the lobster roll and caesar salad. Shared a pitcher of OG sangria with my friend. Spent my summers on the east coast, and rarely get a good lobster roll in Ontario so I was worried about it. Meal was super fast, sandwich was amazing!! It had a generous portion of chunk lobster. Just a tiny bit too much mayo for me but many probably like that. Still excellent. The bun was toasty and fresh. Salad was fresh. Loved the sangria - fresh fruit taste. Our waitress was attentive but no pressure - perfect while we made our way through the huge pitcher!! The meal was good value. Seating options were high tables or a huge booth. Felt bad taking a booth for just 2 of us but I don't find the high tables comfortable (too old!). Will be back for sure!!”
