Symposium Cafe Restaurant Stoney Creek

We got the fish and chips Friday deal and they were delicious! Fries were amazing! Surprised with their coffee which turned out better than I expected. The cake was ok.

Food and drinks were very well presented. You can tell that they really care about how they serve their products.

Our server Mat is very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Service is wonderful!

We went for 24th Anniversary dinner tonight!! Food was amazing and so was the service. We have been here for brunch a few times which was also awesome. But first time for dinner. We will continue to come back. Wish I could remember our server’s name. She was fantastic. Big thank you to her for sure!!

Symposium has been around for a longtime but I have never gone there to eat. We came a month ago with some friends to celebrate my grandson's 13th birthday. My husband, grandson and I had the rib and wings special with fries which were finger licking good! The ribs fell off the bone and wings were perfectly cooked and crispy. My celiac friend ordered the braised rib which she loved and her husband pasta dish which they both enjoyed immensely.
For dessert my grandson had the
Hummingbird Cake which had toasted coconut, pineapple, banana, & walnut - butter cream icing. He ate it all and was quite happy with his choice!
My husband and I shared the
Fudge Brownie Cheesecake New York-style, topped with fudge covered brownie - chocolate graham crust which was devoured slowly. This was more than enough for the both of us after our rib and wing meal. My friend had a gluten free sundae and her husband the Sky High Carrot Cake Lightly spiced with cranberry, walnut & pineapple - cream cheese icing which were both very scrumptious.
This was an awesome first visit! Love the seating area here and the chairs! They are so comfy and inviting! We stayed awhile just chatting because it was so comfortable there. Great place for a date night in the future!

On Saturday, August 30th I brought my friend here for her 65th birthday. We had been several times and it is one of her favorites. I brought a small cheesecake ahead of time along with a 6 and a 5 candle and asked if they could take care of this for me. I was told they would. Once dinner was long over, I went up to ask the waitress if we could get the cake now and, again, was told no problem. Next thing I know a different waitress approached our table and, completely blowing the surprise, she explained that since they also offer cake I would be charged for 2 pieces of cake!! Not wanting to blow a happy time, I let it go but once my friend realized what just happened she said we will never go back. I have never had this happen at any other restaurant and is shameful!!

Great food fair price for a lot of food

Fish was ok, chips old(and it was only lunch), a teaspoon of coleslaw (really?),
And was not happy that the drinks were so expensive!(Nearly 5.00 for a glass of juice!)

Had the Philly cheese steak sandwich, beef was dry, barely any peppers and it just wasn’t very good. Fries had a nice seasoning on them but were very soggy, could be due to the fact that I ordered through door dash. The sandwich was 25 dollars but it felt like a 10 dollar school lunch they just kinda threw together.
