“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 !“

“Stopped by for dinner on the patio and had a great overall experience! The live music created an amazing atmosphere. I ordered the mac & cheese with pulled pork—the flavor was incredible, though I love a good mac and cheese so much that I wouldn't have minded a slightly larger portion. My wife had the pizza, which was very good. We’ll definitely be back!“

“The Western Sandwich is excellent, every bite was delicious! Great service and views of the runway. I would highly recommend.“

“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.“

“such a great atmosphere, amazing staff (always above and beyond) food is fantastic (kitchen staff id like to meet you), cold drinks, and easy to make friends. Always a great time.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I’ve always enjoyed Swiss Chalet“

“Had an awesome experience at East Side Mario’s in Peterborough! The atmosphere was amazing, the food was awesome, and the whole experience was great from start to finish.

A special shoutout to our server, Tory, who was fantastic and made the experience even better. Great service, great food, and a great atmosphere.

Thanks for the experience — we’ll definitely be back! 🍝❤“

“We have never been to this location before but I was incredibly impressed by our experience tonight. We came at a busy time this evening and our server Allie was so efficient. She was clearly busy but simultaneously very attentive and fast with our drink refills. It surprised me how quick the food came out considering how busy it was, but it was hot and delicious. We got the 2 for 1 special with ribs and we will for sure be back in hopes of getting her as our waitress again.“

“Friendly and fast service, great ambiance“

“Stopped by the riverside a couple weeks back on a work trip through Peterborough and grabbed a table on the gazebo side around sunset, easily the best seat in the place. The pan seared trout was cooked perfectly and the portion was generous without being over the top. Staff clearly knew the regulars but still made time to walk us through the specials without rushing anything. Parking behind the building was tight but easy enough, and honestly worth it for that view over the water.“

“This is the nicest Harvey's location I've ever been to, the food was delicious and the staff were very good and quick. Other than one older heavy set female that was maybe a manager? She had glasses on and she was yelling and being rude to the employees that were working hard. It's located right on the water and has a lot of picnic tables outside.“

“We just ordered from inside the restaurant, and we had the most wonderful experience and it was all thanks to Julie at the front end! She has the most wonderful customer service and she knows the menu so well!! If your not sure what you want she got you and I’m definitely going back just to see her“
