Love bar one so much. The food is so good, the service is also very good. And it’s just an overall great place to hang out with friends :)! I would recommend this place to all my friends and family!

The food is always great here, I love coming here with my group just to talk and hang out. They play good music too, the atmosphere is always laid back. The server is quite handsome and nice as well.

Visited for a Sunday breakfast soon after they started. The food was simply too good. I had the salted caramel and banana waffle with a sausage (super 'herb-y' flavours), eggs and hash browns. Pancakes were fluffy, served with foamy cream and sweet caramel on top. The coffee was good too. The place looked quite big but they informed right at the start of the breakfast that the staff is still being trained and so they were only serving a few tables at a time. I hope they bring it up to speed because the food seems totally worth it. Will definitely visit again to try more dishes.

Nice looking restaurant, a nice change from the run-down appearance of most of the restaurants in High Level. It was clean and not very busy for a late morning breakfast.

Last week - pancakes and bacon and eggs. The pancakes were cooked pretty well, but the taste of icing sugar reminded me that this is an American corporate chain restaurant with most of its food sourced from Sysco Systems or some similar establishment. Deep fried bacon was nothing special. Eggs were cooked properly, although I was never asked how I'd like them done and I don't really expect there to be any difference - a common Canadian theme. The server was reasonable but it was clear that they had just started and didn't have restaurant experience.

A few days later, I made the mistake of trying some type of beef dip sandwich, which contained a quarter pound of overpowering processed swiss cheese, some kind of bland cheap cut of beef prepared en masse, and an almost flavourless Au Jus. It came on plain white bread, which was not the same as the photo on the menu, which was greasy and anemic. The fries were reasonable, but not for the price. I was seated by two people, one of whom passed me onto whomever could be bothered to take the next customer, and then served by yet another person who disappeared once they had taken my order. Three times another server bothered me and forgot that I had already been served. Since my server was gone, I paid at the front counter - sorry to the front of house manager if I intruded on your valuable time standing there. Its not like I'm a repeat customer anyway.

Price was the biggest problem I have with this place for this quality of food. Not only does the Debit machine give only three options for tipping all of which were over what I felt was deserved for the service I received.

Both my breakfast and my silly sandwich came to $30, which is way way too much for a greasy spoon diner experience. If this is the lack of quality they offer, they should have spent less on decor. Someone in upper management seems to be convinced that they are marketing the Denny's brand instead of serving food to customers.

There is nothing to either draw on the familiarity of the Denny's brand nor stand out from any of the other horrible food available in High Level.

Walked out after attempting to give them another chance.... ignored by the rude waiter who wouldn't even help me find bacon and eggs ( but walked away from me because I didn't have my order ready 12 seconds after sitting... ) nobody even offered me a drink...

Tried the fake bar but since it doesn't have anything on tap, has no mixology program, and closes at 10pm, I was unable to get them to make me chicken wings which she said they could do but then the kitchen was closed.... useless....

Dennys Corporate - get rid of this franchise owner as fast as possible... your name and reputation are plummeting.... on e the honeymoon phase wears off it'll be a ghost town in there just like they did to the attached bar....

Tried the chicken wings which are always on special apparently .
The bourbon glaze was great. It didn’t come with any dipping sauce so this must be an additional side. They seemed smaller than some of the wings I have had elsewhere , but for the price I can’t complain.
The Tatertot chicken entree was also tasty and a great meal reminding me of home.

One staffer to service the whole place was a bit rough, she was doing a great job but should be a few more staff.

The service is amazing and I love how the decor is however the food is subpar at best. The vegetables from the Mama’s Pot Roast is so bland. The mash potato is hot on one side and cold on the other. The meat also has no flavour. The weirdest part is that it has a funky smell. It’s obvious that it’s microwaved, which is kind of unfortunate considering the price range. 3 star at best cause the decor and service is actually pretty good. But I do understand they’re still new so it’s not really surprising.

I like to experience a good beef dip all over North America, I give this beef dip 5-stars it's presented in a unique way and it's worth trying
