I love going to Swiss Chalet. The food is always great. I want to give a shout out to Gail. She was very pleasant, quick to take your order and bring our food out. She made it a very positive night. Ask for Gail next time you're in.

We were there on December 11, 2024 where the lunch crowd was what you expect you would see at the dinner hour! Yet, our server, Gail, never missed a beat. She remained unfrazzled, polite and smiling throughout - a true professional! She made our day.

When I entered the door I was given very fast seating also asked was there any special seating I wanted table , booth or small booth. My waitress name was Gail, she had such a lovely voice I felt like I was her friend and I noticed all the time I was there she was so kind to everyone who were seated in her section which was very busy at the time. I have been to this location before but today was the best friendly service that I have had. Thankyou Gail you made my day.

Went for my birthday. Got seated right away and we were off to a great start. The waitress took our orders fairly quickly and things were still looking good. And that's where it ended. The restaurant was less than half capacity, maybe only a third full and it took almost a half hour for dinners to arrive. You serve chicken! We ordered chicken! Why the ever loving cluck did it take so long! When it arrived, the chicken was overcooked and fries barely warm and a shockingly small portion too. We ordered extra sauces 3 times!!! Twice when we ordered, "can we please have extra sauces?" "Sure no problem". Finished ordering, "please don't forget our extra sauces", "no problem". Dinner arrives. "Still need the extra sauces". Waitress acts like we were just asking for it now for the first time. Anyways, we just moved here from Oshawa. I miss Oshawa south Swiss Chalet. 5 out 5 for that location. Huge portions, always fresh and fast. Maybe Belleville management and staff should take a trip to Oshawa South and see how it's supposed to be run.

Got take out. 80$ order. Waited 20 minutes for prep. Watched 2 separate people leave and come back because they were missing pies and sauces. Got my order and was running late for dinner with family. Should've checked before leaving. Counter staff certainly didn't; just called my name and shoved the bags at me . Unpacked at home and order was missing sauces, stuffing (I ordered a family festive meal) and an order of fries. And far enough away that calling to complain or go back and pick up wasn't an option. Total disappointment and feel ripped off

My family visited this location last weekend for the first time, and we had a great experience. The hostess staff were able to provide us with a table fairly quickly, although we were at first told there would be a longer wait. Our server Bryce was phenomenal. He was very pleasant and ensured we always had what we needed to enjoy our experience, thank you Bryce for going above and beyond for my family!

I’m not much of a complainer when dining out, but let me tell you about my experience. I have never had a complaint about Swiss Chalet until tonight, when my family and I were served by Ashlee. It was honestly sad. Nobody was offered a refill on drinks, she never cared to check in to see how things were going- and we were there for over 2 hours (due to slow service). I’m not sure who trained her to serve, but I suggest intervention to prevent further complaints. Update- Never got the compensation that i was promised months ago when this review was first made, and I made the mistake of going back in again tonight. We arrived at 5:30 and got out at 7:15. 2 hours of my life i’ll never get back. The entire experience was again disappointing, the male server was complaining and being very dramatic over the “rush” (his section was not even full), and my food was cold when it came out. We waited over an hour and a half for our food to come out, and the tables around us were in the same situation. Management is horrible and very unhelpful towards staff- they instead just stand there useless and critique their staff. Looking forward to hearing back from you guys again- hopefully this time the issue will be rectified.

Waited 15 minutes to be seated once seated we watched two other tables come 10 minutes after we were seated. You felt their money must have been better then ours because you proceeded to serve them first. We walked out not to ever go back. We went to piper arms and got fast service and great food. I also tip over 20%

Went into takeout to order two meals. There was another customer there who absolutely needed to be asked to leave. What a mouth on him. Too bad other customers heard him and walked out. Phoned the store and the person directed me to use the 1-888 number. Where is the human decency? I feel so bad for the poor girl standing behind the counter being berated and sworen at over a coupon.

I picked up dinner from there and multiple items were missing that we were looking forward to. I didnt notice till we were home so had to waste my time and call them. I was very unsatisfied with their response and the tone of the customer service person. We ender the call more disatified then before we called. The tiny credit they offered us only lasts 90 days but it will remain unused because we will not be ordering from there again.

The food was cold Both myself and my friend asked to have our meals replaced with a warm meal. She was so angry and ignorant. We tipped her which in return she refused and said, just keep it. Definitely not returning to this restaurant. Food

I took my Mom for the festive meal on Sunday evening at 6 pm. When we arrived, we were greeted in a friendly manner. It took approx. 15 minutes or so to seat us. I thought, ok, theyre busy. When we were seated, there were several booths available. This made me wonder why the delay. Our waitress came and took our order, both drink and food. Our drinks came. Now, this is when things become unacceptable. Another gentleman ordered the same as my Mom, including a bake potato. Only he was told that after waiting an extended time, we no longer have any baked potatoes. My mom was not approached at this time. Ok, fine. The table that is seated after us has received their appetizers and meal. Were still waiting. Finally, the waitress approaches and explains that no bake potatoes left. So my mom has to order another side, ok fine. However, this could have been done when she came to speak to the other guest. Our meal finally arrives, well after 7 pm now. The fries are warm, and the dressing is cold. The chicken, however, is hot. By the time we have finished, it is going well on to 8pm, and I am freezing, as it would seem the heat was either turned low or not even on. I have tried the takeout at this location and eat in services. Both have been a huge disappointment.

Our go to place when in Belleville.

October 21, 2024

Just left with my wife. Hadn t been to a Swiss Challet in about 20yrs. As we spend a lot of time in Quebec we usually enjoy St Hubert s. This place is NOT St Hubert s. Spent about $85 on 2 chicken & 1/2 rack of ribs. I can say with about 100% confidence that not ONE item was made to order. The ribs were CLEARLY leftovers reheated with a slab of sauce on top, dry AF. The chicken also tasted left over as well as the baked potatoes. If I pay $85 for two - you got a lot of balls serving leftovers. Absolutely HORRIFIC. Also - no one at the entrance to seat us. And kitchen/server staff yelling random things from the kitchen like Ok! I m running to do a bathroom check! . Also staff using customer tables to wrap utensils? I get it s a Swiss Chalet, but holy crap it s obvious that not one person gives a FLYING about its operation.

My wifes roast beef was cold, asked for NO sour cream on baked potato and it was on it. Told server brought her one, supposedly the last one and it had big brown spots in it. We were there just after 6pm and didnt get bill until 7:30. We asked for takeout boxes, roast beef & actually good coleslaw to bring home. We got 1 box so said we need a container for the coleslaw. Not a good experience

Local Guide
September 21, 2024

Really a horrible experience. The waitresses really tried their best to ensure everyone was seated in a timely manner - good job to them but waiting for 30mins to be seated is ridiculous. It clearly shows how badly managed this is. They seem to be heavily understaffed. The food was poor. Apparently there is one cook in the back. The chicken was cold. No wonder why they have so many offers going on. Hopefully they will do something about the business plan going forward.

Monday evening was another disappointing experience at SC Belleville. When we arrived, we were greeted and seated promptly. We shared with the hostess our last experiences, who said, sometimes we get it right, and sometimes we don t . This should have been our Red Flag! We met our pleasant, courteous server who took our drinks and food orders & delivered the drinks promptly. After 45 mins of waiting, I went to the waitstaff station, and I was told another 25 minutes, needless to say, we left. Remembering our previous & similar experience at this location, we left! My takeaway conclusions: there is a problem with this franchised owned store, and it s NOT with the waitstaff. The concern is with the franchise owner, who obviously cannot retain kitchen staff and is over tasking the those who remain. As a result, the waitstaff is literally running, frantically placating customers. When leaving, we were politely advised to call with my concerns, instead, I have chosen this venue. This is my first negative review on trip advisor, and I waited until Wednesday to post. We travel 35 minutes to patronize this location In the future, we will add on the extra time and drive to Cobourg or Kingston to a corporate location and avoid the frustration.

The food was good and the family-restaurant atmosphere was pleasant. If you are in a rush this is not the place for you as it seems to take some time to be seated and staff appear stretched thin. Everyone is very nice, though. Kid-friendliness: The restaurant has lots of space, so you neednt be in a tightly crowded area of tables where kids have to be extra well-behaved. The site line to the bathrooms is good from much of the seating. Swiss Chalet as a business is kid-friendly and this location is no exception.

I havent gone to a Swiss LA in a couple of decades, but hoping its going to be what it always was as a kid! Like many of their locations, if not all, there is a restaurant side, and a takeout side, make sure you go into the takeout side if youre there for pickup! Friendly staff, lots of people eating in, and lots of parking! And with their coupons and weekly deals, its the same price or less than McDonalds now!

We went to this Swiss chalet in the last week of August two times. We were travelling with our adult son who is on the autism spectrum. Not only the food was great but each time staff treated our son with sensitivity and also went out of their way to have us sit in a closed section the second time around where it was less noisy. We are from Toronto looking to relocate in the area. This left us with a very good impression of staff and the overall feeling of the people in Belleville. Quite frankly, you rock!!

Unfortunately we found out that she will be leaving at the end of August for school it will be sad to see her leave. She is an exceptional waitress. She is friendly, knowledgeable and quick. She does constant quality checks and ensures that her customers are taken care of. We will be sure to be back before she leaves for school. Parking: Plenty of parking

Tried take out again, pick up was at 6:10, arrived late at 6:20, told order isn t ready yet. Someone came in after, ordered at the counter, and left with their food before I got my order at 6:40, it is terrible that walkins are getting their orders quick, when using the app takes 30+ minutes beyond scheduled pick up times. Starting to think I should delete the app and order in person, might be quicker.

This place is terrible. We were seated fine but the rest of the experience was horrible. The server did not take our order for 17 minutes. The food took 46 minutes to get the salads that were ordered. The rest of the table had to wait another 12 minutes. They brought out 1 plate at a time and people had to start to eat before everyone was served. Every single time I come here it takes forever for service and food. I will leave my previous review below this because it really doesnt change. Over the past 4 years it has the same terrible service and long wait times. There is also never any soap in the bathrooms. Went in and the place was not busy at all. It took 7 minutes for someone to seat us. We ordered pretty quickly but it took 35 minutes to get our food. The quality was not the best and the portions are smaller than the last time. They did not have mashed potatoes because of their supply chain. We tried this place years after the last review which was not a good review either. Very disappointed with this location.

Arrived at 5:45, left restaurant at 8:35. Ridiculously long wait for a restaurant that wasnt very busy on a Friday night. Ordered drinks and appetizers, and we had eaten them before our waiter even bothered to take our meal order. Then it was well over an hour before our entrees were finally brought out. At the end of our meal, it was 30-45 minutes to get our bill. The food was good, but it was a very long wait with hungry children wanting food, while the wait staff were all wandering around like they had no clue what they were doing. We kept getting various excuses about the wait. Several times, our waiter told us just five more minutes, which ended up being way longer, or were waiting for sides. Also, it is not food related, but this restaurant is freezing cold to the point of uncomfortable. I dont mind air conditioning in summer, but this was a bit much. Had I known, I would have brought a sweater, but I never expected to be shivering for the almost 3 hours I was stuck there waiting to eat. I wondered why other guests seated at their tables, had jackets and hoodies on a mid-July evening, but I soon found out why.

June 21, 2024

I sent my chicken back because it was very pink, and they replaced it with basically the same pink chicken and then the kitchen manager came out to argue with us about whether it was cooked enough. I dont want food temperatures quoted at me, I want to have my chicken look like its cooked. We walked out because it was very unappetizing, and we wont be back. The service was also unimpressive. The swiss chalet in cobourg is good if you have a craving for chalet sauce.

Usually Swiss Chalet is fairly standard from franchise to franchise. This one is definitely the best Ive ever had. The food seems fresher. Brighter. Like the people working in the kitchen actually care about the finished product. The service is great, its very clean, the music is at a calm level, and the drinks are fine. But the food is definitely above and beyond the average Swiss Chalet!

Out of 7 people, 4+ were cold meals. Then 1 of the chicken meals was half raw. Staff were nice and took some money off but was not happy as I was hungry and couldnt eat it all because it was half raw. Otherwise was nice Food

While having dinner here tonight I had a great time! Not only was the hostess this evening very friendly but very accommodating as well, the server named Ashley, was well mannered and very upbeat with positively the best service I have received in the city of Belleville. I had the two piece fish and chips, the fish was flakey and melted in my mouth. I was a bit hesitant at first but the hostess referred it to me explaining that she her self had enjoyed it and that I would love it! Well she was right, I didnt expect it to be so good as they are known for their chicken. I do hope that they keep the seafood on so that next time I go to Swiss Chalet I can order it again. I will definitely be coming here again and referring to anyone who asks me for a good place for dine in. Well done!

Great food, fair prices and service, although the waitress was run off her feet on a Saturday night, and I only saw 1 other waitress and a guy in a suit bringing out the food. Very short staffed. Decor could be a bit warmer, and so could the temperature. Im sure the wait staff appreciated the cooler temperatures in the restaurant, but the customers did not. We will return

Gail was our server today. She was friendly, efficient, and helpful. My daughter and I have celiac disease and must eat strictly gluten free. She went out of her way to consult with kitchen staff and management to answer my questions and ensure our meal was prepared with care. It s such a treat to be able to eat delicious French fries prepped in a dedicated fryer (blancher). I wish all locations would offer this. Some establishments and servers see customers with celiac as a nuisance and high maintenance - not Gail and the Belleville Swiss Chalet team. We were treated with respect and genuine concern. Celiac customers are a loyal bunch. We will definitely make a point to return when we are back in the area. Thank you Gail! Dietary restrictions: We are so happy that this location has a dedicated fryer (blancher) for French fries only and takes cross contamination seriously when preparing meals for gluten free (celiac) customers.

We have eaten in the Belleville location before. Most times were good, enough for us to return. Today however, was a huge disappointment & we will not return. It was supposed to be a quick dinner on our way home after shopping. We were in the restaurant shortly after 4 & there were only 2 other tables in our section. The server came to the table shortly after being seated (she has served us in the past ), took drink orders & we ordered our food at the same time. Our order was placed in the computer at 4.23 according to our check. Drinks were served in a timely fashion. The restaurant started to get busy. What we noticed, only 2 servers were taking orders & the food was delivered to all tables by runners. Our server was slammed with guests. Food was delivered & we both noticed immediately French fries were cold unless covered with food & dry. Actually our ribs & my white chicken were dry. Obviously, this food was not the freshest & I certainly appreciate food control but there is no reason FF s should be reheated. We kept eating because we were hungry & the server was too busy to come back & check on this. Our plates were far from empty when they were removed from the table. Our server was very apologetic for EVERYTHING. This was not her fault We cashed out 5:40. MANAGER pay attention to what s going on in your Store!! We were watching you! In stead of hanging around the front desk, walk around your guests & apologize for the bad service, food and over all experience. A Managers job is to pull up the slack. Try removing a few plates or serve a few drinks. Lead your team by example !!!

We were informed when we got there (at open) that the kitchen had a huge order to prep so we would have about a 20 min wait. We ended up waiting like 45 mins which sucked but we understood!

I will note if you get there before 5pm on a weekend you won t have to wait but after that be expected to wait. To me that s just proof that you get good quality and great service for your money if the restaurant is packed by 5pm on a Friday night.

Constantly a long wait yet numerous open tables because of lack of workers. You can tell one night they ran out of potatoes and the substitute potatoes were sticky instant with no taste.

I took a fairly large group of residents from a retirment residence to Swiss Chalet, Belleville for a nice lunch out. Restraunt was clean an spacious. Gail was our server and she was very friendly and accommodating. As we came from a seniors residence, we had a few walkers and they found a place to park them so they werent splayed around us as we ate. We had a couple people change their minds on drinks and Gail was happy to change it up for them. Very friendly service! We will be back for sure. Wheelchair accessibility: Automatic doors for entry and lots of space between tables for someone in a large wheelchair to find their way to their table or the bathroom. Was no automatic doors on bathrooms but could have been a separate bathroom. I just didnt notice as it wasnt needed for our group.

Holy Wait Times Arrived at 525pm for our 530 reservation... but a table hadnt been set aside for it. Table of 3 adults and 4 kids. We didnt leave until 740pm. Several other large groups came after us and left before us. Wait times on ordering, food, bill... even when the bill showed up it was wrong. Two sinks in Mens washroom didnt work (out of 3) for what ever reason. Not our first time having long wait times here. Good food if you have over 2 hours to kill.

This has to be the worst Swiss Chalet in Canada! I waited more than an hour at the takeout to get my food! And when I got it it was cold! Stay away from this Swiss Chalet! People that work there dont give a damn about you once they take your money. I visited Swiss Chalet in Belleville Ontario one more time and let me start by saying this is the second review on this place I do and it only gets worse! This is definitely the worst Swiss Chalet in all of Canada I can assure you of that, they have employees that dont care and dont like working! I went there at the takeout section because I had placed an order online and when I got there to pick up my order, the lady that I will include a picture of, was working there, she was the same lady that made me wait just over an hour the last time I was there! She says to me Ill be with you in 2 minutes because she was with another lady, there was only one person there at the takeout who was in front of me and that was it there was nobody else there it was empty, nevertheless, 2 minutes turned into 20 minutes before she asked me what I was there for and I told her You waited 20 minutes to ask me what Im here for? I told her to pick up my order she said fine it should be ready soon, only to come back 10 minutes later to tell me or ask me rather what was my order we cant find it? Can you believe this? This is a half hour later she did this, She could have told me this initially not way to half hour!! ,And I had other food in the car that froze to death and went to waste! Remember, were in the middle of winter now so the food getd cold quickly! This person does not like her job! She walks lazy, She works lazy, drags her feet, You can tell she doesnt like to work! I have no idea if this is a franchisee that owns this Swiss Chalet or if its a corporate store, but regardless, I will be filling a complaint along with my previous bag experience with her to corporate head office asking them to remove this lady from her position! She couldnt care less about takeout yet they have her working at takeout and most of the time its just her!! Last time I was there I wasnt the only one waiting for an hour so I wrote a review and there were more people there too waiting just as long as me. The order I was picking up wasnt even for me I will never order anything from this restaurant after my first experience let alone after the second one! It was for two old ladies that I have at home my mother and my mother-in-law and the food that was in the car froze for one of the two ladies unfortunately so money down the drain! The laziest animal on Earth is the sloth. Sloths are mammals that live in the forests of Central and South America. They have a very low metabolic rate, which makes them move very slowly and sleep for up to 20 hours a day!! So Im willing to bet that in a previous life this lady was a bloody sloth!! So I pre-warn you, stay away from this Swiss chalet at least at takeout because if you go there and get served by the same lady you will be waiting a very long time and I mean very long!
