We love our local pub for so many things. Great food, friendly, attentive staff, fun, informative events and such a vibe.
Iâm not a whiskey drinker but the owner and Whiskey Sommelier, Stephanie, is slowly changing that. With their exceptional variety of whiskeys and monthly whiskey tastings Iâm becoming a fan! Weâre âtravelling the worldâ through whiskey as Stephanie enlightens us with all kinds of interesting and fun facts.
The British style pub fare is delish and there are daily food specials. The $100 per person Iâve chosen was for a Japanese whiskey tasting and a three course dinner each. Check it out soon!

The Dam Pub is âdamâ good!! We visited for lunch today and were impressed with the atmosphere, food, and service. The restaurant moved from Thornbury to Meaford and is a wonderful addition to the main street corridor.
The decor and atmosphere is cozy, like a British pub, and the whiskey wall, with over 1,000 types of whiskey is a cool and unique feature! A neat wall display shows a picture of John Catucci from âYou Gotta Eat Here!â, which makes me want to watch the episode (S1.E14)!
Our server, Megan, was very friendly and provided excellent service! The daily specials (Cauliflower Cheddar Soup, Eggs Benedict combo) sounded tasty, but we had our hearts set on certain dishes. We ordered Classic Calamari, Wee Shepherdâs Pie, and Fish & Chips.
The food was delicious and nicely presented - compliments to the chefs! The calamari was enjoyed by all and not rubbery like some calamari can be. The fish & chips were fried perfectly, with crispy batter and tender fish. The tartar sauce was tangy and tasty. The shepherdâs pie with the house salad exceeded expectations. The house salad was exceptional and offered a variety of flavours.
Overall, we had a âdamâ good experience and will visit again! :)

One of the worst restaurant experiences Iâve ever had
I honestly donât understand how this place has such a high rating â itâs completely undeserved. The food was cold, stale, and tasted like it had been sitting out for hours. The service was terrible: slow, inattentive, and completely unprofessional. We had to repeat ourselves multiple times just to get the basics.
Cleanliness? Nonexistent. Just look at the photo I took from their bathroom â absolutely filthy and unacceptable for any place, let alone a restaurant.
The prices were insanely high for such poor quality. Based on my experience, I seriously believe most of the positive reviews are fake or manipulated â thereâs no way they reflect reality.
Iâm sorry, but not sorry.

Exceptional Dining & Service!
Our dinner was absolutely outstanding,Finger-Licking Good!
The Frizzled Short Rib was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, topped with crispy frizzled onions and a rich demi jus.
The Dam Lamb Shank was perfectly braised, fall-off-the-bone tender, and seasoned beautifully. Both dishes came with fresh, well-prepared veggies that complemented the meal perfectly.
The customer experience was just as exceptionalâthe staff was welcoming, helpful in selecting dishes, and made us feel truly valued.
A fantastic dining experienceâhighly recommended!

An intimate dining experience. I did not feel crammed into the interior. The menu had a wide variety of pub items, but also some items, like prime rib, liver and onions. The only criticism was that the popovers were cooked too long and were not soft.
