Canadian Restaurants in Thunder Bay, ON

“This place was it!!!!! Awesome vibes, food and drinks. Went here for my 30th birthday. The servers although busy, had time to chat with my partner and I. Would strongly recommend. The only complaint I would make is that it was noisy. We sat in the dining area which was a bit quieter, but overall it didn't ruin anything.“

“I just wanted to take the tome to acknowledge the amazing efforts of Colin (who I've now known to be the GM of this location) . I had called with a question, simply asking what the daily vegetable was before I placed my order through Skip the Dish. I wanted to make sure the sode was not say roasted red pepper and beans or something. During our briefing talk, I explained I had a food allergy to peppers. He said he would make sure there were no peppers. Much to my delight, the food was absolutely amazing, and I had no issues with anything. What particularly caught me off guard, was that Colin had essentially taken time aside to ensure the safety of my meal, and inquired about all ingredients to the kitchen. He found that there were pepper flakes in the coleslaw side, so he actually attached a had written note with the coleslaw aside, amd substitutions available that accommodated my allergy. I have yet to ever see a restaurant worker take such initiative, let alone learning that this was the GM whom I'm sure had many other things to do that evening. I was absolutely blown away. So Colin, if you ever see this, you made my night, and you've solidified a loyal family of clients to Kelseys, solely because of you. Thank you“

“Very nice dining experience. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was formal/casual and the food was good quality. I ordered the fish and chips and highly recommend. My gf ordered the steak and that was good too - very fresh ingredients and the prices were reasonable. Great place to relax and enjoy a meal with someone special.“

“Need to meet with a few people? Having lunch at The Madhouse is my suggestion to you. They have many light lunch options, and large tables. It is not noisy, but the atmosphere is conducive to a short working meeting.

If a member of that meeting is out of town, The Madhouse is found easily! There is on-site parking and on street parking too. If out of town, there is a bus stop right in front of the building with shade and a bus shelter too.

The servers are well trained! They work with you - just tell them you are having a quick meeting. They will orchestra the serving of food, and it has been my experience, they know when best to bring out the food, etc.

Consider a lunch meeting at the Madhouse. A tasty and productive hour is yours! Where else does that happen at lunch?

Dietary restrictions: They have three very tasty meals that are Diabetic friendly.“

“Swiss Chalet is my husband’s favourite restaurant ever. We are so sad they had to close all their restaurants im Winnipeg. But every time he goes to Thunder Bay, everyone knows where he is going for sure. ? This time he took us to thunder bay and of course there is no way we wouldn’t eat here. We just love it. The food is always great and the staff are amazing.

Kid-friendliness: They are very friendly and accommodating to kids“
