14 Best American Restaurants in Peterborough

“We had dinner there tonight. hubby ordered the liver and onions and gravy. Best he's ever had all was delicious I ordered the chicken wrap with there homemade chicken soup. DELICIOUS! Will be a regular customer after finding this gem. Great friendly staff too. very pleasant !“

“Try something different with the family and eat here while watching the planes land and take off!

Service is excellent and dining area is comfortable.

I wish the owners would do more with the aviation theme though. Suggest to have more aviation memorabilia on the walls and even hang it on the ceiling! Look to the London Airport resto for inspiration. A great opportunity is missed here to jazz this place up and showcase the peterborough Airport.

The only thing I tasted here was the Club sandwich. While good and flavourful, I'll give it 4 stars and not 5 because its made with sliced Turkey ( seems processed ) and not fresh oven roasted chucks of Turkey breast.

Having said that the Club Sandwich with fries is very reasonably priced so great value.“

“Awesome :) We have been at least - 6 x and will continue to go. The food is excellent, served hot and at a good pace. Outstanding Honey feta cheese appetizer with toasty pita bread , and an amazing eggplant dish & salmon dish - In fact all our choices ordered have tasted delish.
Service is excellent and hours open are people friendly! Our regards to the chefs and staff. Would add a candle tea light and maybe a padded seat for ambiance /comfort but as is a most pleasant, happy place to go to spend time breaking bread with friends and family ...this restaurant is ours and my families new favourite restaurant, to meet and enjoy an excellent meal in Peterborough..Outstanding !!“

“We have been enjoying the gourmet food of Old Bridge Inn for years. The building and setting is spectacular. We have enjoyed meals inside and on the patio. We are local but friends of ours liked staying there on visits. More recently we have been bringing home meals from Inn Cuisine in Lakefield. We just had a large group reception outside using tents on the grounds. The food served was perfect in quality and presentation. A good time was had by all despite a little rain. Highly recommended.“

“I was travelling for work with a colleague and we were tired and wanted a nice light meal and a relaxed atmosphere. We certainly found that and so much more at the Riverside Grill. Jessica was our server this evening and it’s safe to say she made the entire experience 1000 times better. She was attentive to our needs and was extremely personable as well as being very good at her job. She went above and beyond and identified what would make our visit better, then delivered on it. The extra cheese curds were very welcome 😉. And the care she took crafting my delicious dessert was very much appreciated. The meal and dessert were delicious but the service and conversation with Jessica was what really made the evening great. She also gave us some recommendations for places to go and things to do. I honestly can’t remember when I’ve had such a lovely interaction with a wait staff professional. If there is an employee of the month award I definitely would like Jessica to receive it. We will be back because of her.“

“I’ve always enjoyed Swiss Chalet“

“We were there on a Friday night with our youth hockey team. I made a reservation for 40 people and they had us in a room on the main floor that was a bit more private. The service was great, the food was fantastic, the portions were big, and the prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend!“

“they got great burgers. and fries .“

“Had breakfast for the first time today (May 17th) very good value and and good portions, added fruit a nice touch. Friendly staff and good service. My only concerns were the overdone has browns and really cold plates. Breakfast should be served on (at least) warm plates, especially your are having eggs. Otherwise, very good.“

“My wife and I just had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. We were served by a gentleman named Aaron and his manners and knowledge of the dishes were exceptional, the food was better than we could have hoped for and we cannot wait to dine here again, excellent service“

“We hadn't been to this restaurant for about 18 years. We were pleased with our soup, salad and we both had the spaghetti bolognese. The soup came to our table 2 mins after we put in our order! I was starving, so that was great! Our server was a bit forgetful, as he forgot to take my salad order, and he asked if I wanted some, when I asked if it came with the meal. The salad dressing was very tasty, and the Italian Wedding soup was not salty at all! Later, he forgot our 2nd bread order twice, and he later asked a third time if we wanted any!!, and finally it came to us! No worries, as we did get what we wanted. We were there on the Tues (after Mother's Day), which was Kids Night, but it was quiet. We came here as I got a Diner's Card for Mom's Day, and I chose this restaurant. We found it a reasonable value, so we may come back within the year!“

“Our family of six had a wonderful experience at Peterborough Red Lobster on Sunday January 15. The meal was fabulous but it was our server, Riley who made it extra special. He was helpful sorting out the menu, especially for our granddaughters. I needed help with paying with my card and again he stepped in. Such a pleasant young man. We hope to be back again soon.“

“October 24, 2024 approximately 11:10pm, I went to this location after work and received exceptional service from a hard working individual, I can't recall his name but his customer service, and effort was incredibly important to making my dining / drive through a great experience. This individual took his time into making sure I had a perfect order and great tasting food. I will certainly be coming back due to his awesome customer service and great effort into his job.

Parking: Easy Drive through“
