Welcome to Harbour Street Fish Bar, the best restaurant in Collingwood for quality fish, steak, seafood, and pasta. Experience live music in Collingwood every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday while enjoying our top-rated food + over 10 beers on top and an extensive wine list. Nestled near Blue Mountain, we offer free parking and takeout food in Collingwood. Since 1975, we've provided a place of fun, friendship, and the finest dining. Join us at The Fish Bar, where we're not trendy, we're just good! See you at the Fish Bar!
The servers who attended to us were really nice and welcoming. We had clam chowder and oysters and were both great. We are not from the city and we feel the prices were very reasonable for the quality that you receive. Will be back for sure.
They have live music from local talent here most nights. The food is good for the price. The soup is a little too thick, and the sauces don't really taste good, but fresh squeezed lemon juice works fine. They open late too, so it's nice to have a different variety other than fast food after Blue Mountain closes.
Major disappointment. This place was talked up online & by locals but I was not impressed. Food was mediocre at best, service was okay, and patio seating was just so-so. We asked if the bartender could make sangria (not on the menu) and we'd pay for a pitcher but that wasnt possible. My wife ordered the shrimp tacos with hard corn shells because she needs to eat gluten free. It took the kitchen three tries to get the order correct. I had the haddock and chips and it came with the smallest plastic containers of cole slaw and tartar sauce I'd ever seen. I barely could get my fork in the containers. You'd think at $29.95 per person they could at least serve the food on a plate instead of a prison-style metal tray and plastic containers.
The food was great with decent portion. The fish and chips was very good without heavy batter like other places. The pasta options were also very delicious with a very creamy sauce and fresh seafood. At the night we went, there was also live music. Service wise could be better, our server didn't ask us how we were doing, but basically took our order, delivered our order, and brought us the bill.
Stopped for lunch with my 91 yo mom. Restaurant is now open midday part of the week & had an amazing lunch & terrific service from Taylor. Plenty of outdoor dining & the food was fresh, reasonably priced & plentiful. Service was amazing. They also have daily specials. We will be back. 😁
Upon entering you can hear the best of the blues, seated by the music is always a good vibe. Food took probably 30 mins to come even though this place was only 20% filled. Free refills on pop. Clam chowder was definitely a hit, it had all the right flavours. Seafood chowder was okay, flavour wise it did not succeed. Seafood pasta was very good, seasoning was on point but under all the pasta was a good layer of oil, wasn’t very pleasant. Haddock and halibut fish and chips were pretty good. Crispy batter with very good salty fries, fish was a bit chewy it seems like they over cooked it. Overall atmosphere was a hit if you love music!
Really enjoyed the excellent music and party atmosphere, small dance floor but generally sufficient. Food was ok. The soup was very salty, steak was slightly overcooked for medium but tasty, seafood pasta was fine. Service. Hostess was a bit unfriendly but I can understand she has a tough job. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Food took a long time since the place was packed. Washrooms: 2 females and 1 male, clean, 4/5. Tip: go there for the music and pay for the $10 music appreciation charge.
Visited twice in the week while in Collingwood. The Monday was amazing. Steak and fish was excellent. Ate outside both times on the patio. Friday night was very busy. Live band. Seemed like different chef. Food not as good. Wait times was ridiculous. Probably because we were the only people outside eating. Waitress was lovely. Visited today August 8, 2024 food was amazing. Calamari, fish tacos, seafood pasta, halibut and chips. Lunchtime. Absolutely perfect. 💯 perfect.
The fish and chips was amazing. Well worth the money.
Great food, service and Entertainment! The place to go for a night out of Dancing and live music!
We love this place ! Great bands, food and people!
A lot of fun, good food and service on my fist couple visits. Yet my last couple of visits weren t as enjoyable. Especially my last. Which is too extensive to fully explain. Yet they had technical difficulties which I stepped up to fix and there were no real appreciations. I saved them a service call which could have cost hundreds. The days of true appreciation is gone.
Had wonderful New England Clam Chowder first, then a really good Smash Burger. It had 2 patties, and I ordered it with sautéed mushrooms and (real cheddar) cheese... both orders are so delicious!!! The waiter was from Ireland, and was a cutie, to boot.... My Mum had muscles (she got a lot), she said they were great, she and had a mushroom salad, it was huge! (tbh, it was good but it couldve used a bit more/stronger of a taste, sorry/not sorry, just being honest). Really great place....and they were having live music later that night! Its a restaurant and a pub, with 2 or 3 tvs, too. Also my cousin and neighbour visited (they went together) and said it was awesome! Definitely worth checking out! Kid-friendliness: Had a kids Menu
A must if you are in Collingwood. Great food, atmosphere and live band. Looking forward to my next visit. Food : 5/5
Orangemen were awesome! Appetizer and service excellent , thanks for a great nite!
Lovely afternoon on the patio with great music by Jason and incredible service by Jocelyn Also nice that we could have our dog on the patio Food
Went on a Sunday for lunch. Place was empty. Another couple arrived for drinks as we left. Food, shrimp and chips and fish and chips, were terrible unless you really like batter. Chips were old and very over cooked. Tartar sauce was extremely tiny and for another thimble cup there was an extra charge. Wine was ridiculously expensive so didn t bother. Service was slow. One last comment! A middle aged woman came in asking to use the washroom. She was informed that the washroom was for patrons only. Although I can accept this as a policy in circumstances when it s busy. There was no one in the place except us (2 people). They were unable to provide information on where she might be able to go!! Very unnecessarily inconsiderate!!
After a year of living in the area we finally made it out to the HSFB. Mixed reviews and no reservations kept us from stopping by prior to this, but glad we finally stopped in for dinner. Service was great, very attentive and friendly. Atmosphere was also okay, busy, a bit on the dark side lighting-wise, and no music playing as the band was setting up. Could have had a bit of music until they were ready to do sound checks. The menu was okay, I d love to see one or two unbattered, fresh fish options on it though, as it is a fish bar after all. Food wise, the calamari was a bit small and heavily battered and a bit greasy. My husband s halibut fish and chips were quite good, fries were also good, he was happy. The server offered to pan fry my halibut versus batter, which I appreciated but it was pretty boring, lacking seasoning, The coleslaw was laced with tarragon and a bit off-putting. I think they d do better with mushy peas on the side, to be a bit different and play up the British fish and chips angle instead of the weird-tasting coleslaw. Overall, I liked the vibe and what they re going for, I hope to come back another night a bit later so we can enjoy the band.
Who would have thought? Had wings here and they were the biggest and some of the tastiest I have ever had. Almost freakishly big lol. Only thing that wasnt was the bill . They have a wing special every Wednesday and its worth going. Happy hour features well priced apps and beer on tap. All the food was great. Will be back.
We had to wait over 1 hour for the food to be served to our table. For the bill we had to ask twice. I wont go back for that poor service.
Extremely poor service. All you can eat mussels is a long stretch. It takes forever to get more service. So disappointed! Never to return.
Stopped here for dinner upon seeing the all you can eat mussels . The first round comes as a pound, then half pound after that ( fair way to avoid waste). We also ordered a green salad to share. Quality of food was average. Service was poor throughout the meal. Suggest ordering your second round when you receive your first. We would not go back. We sat outside but they do have live music inside, we were just too early.
We had a bad personal experience there. Maybe was our mistake to order beef steak and a full rack of pork ribs at fish bar...we choose from the menu. After waiting 75 minutes for our order, the food came almost cold. Another waiting time when we ask for the bill ( 15 min). Waiter forget to check on us, and we had to remind him to about it. Overall, it was a bad experience. Parking: Plenty of parking lots. Wheelchair accessibility: Available
Great place to come and dance and enjoy the live music! The band was REALLY on point when I went and everyone was having a great time. I think less exciting was the food. I got the smash burger and it wasnt anything exciting, the fries were the highlight as they tasted fresh and good.
We had lunch my son, daughter and granddaughter. Calamari was delicious, crispy with the right amount of spices. The fish tacos were recommended and were amazing. The seafood pasta was good but my son is a big eater and could have eaten more. My halibut was cooked beautifully not soft or mushy. The chips were crispy. Service was fast and friendly. Highly recommend. Will return another time when in Collingwood. Parking: Parking is within a strip mall so parking is what is available. We walked over from the nearby condos Kid-friendliness: Have a kid menu with a variety of items to chose from fish, chicken to burgers.
A few weeks ago we came across this place on Google while searching for a place we could stop by after spending a day in Wasaga Beach, before driving back to Toronto. We visited here with our two giant pups, and were welcomed in the patio. The food (we got fish and chips) was great, atmosphere was relaxing and suitable for honestly all the demographics, and the service was warm and lovely. Thank you for filling up the water bowl a million times for our thirsty giant fluff balls. Will visit again when we are in the area!
I went there a year ago and had to go back for the fish and as I said last year its the best fish restaurant in collingwood.
First timer here and not a huge fan of fish, but our server Charlie recommended the tuna parfait.. and she couldn t have been more spot on! Great food and even better service!
The restaurant was very clean and the staff were very attentive. The food was awesome. I had fish tacos. Also, they have a all you can eat fish and chips. It looked yummy. Quick service and food was hot . Parking: Easy parking right infront of the restaurant.
Good food good service out door terrance live music on fridays and Saturday
Best wings in town! Half price wine was also great!
There was a live band playing which was unexpected for us but a good surprise. There was a mandatory $10 per head charge. Quantity of food was large. Service was great.
So I went in the evening on Friday around 8ish was a nice surprise to see the live music. I would say if your looking for live music and a cold drink this is the place to be. I had the haddock and chips and my sister had the smash burger and my mom the fish tacos and while the atmosphere and service was good the food was bland especially the fish. Also be advised there is a $10 per person music experience charge if you are there during a time there is live music.
Live music is so great and fun!! Definitely a locals spot. Average age is 50+. But lots of fun!!
The best food, service and music in all of Collingwood and surrounding areas.
An excellent sports bar to spend a rich evening Parking: Broad
Travelled to see FMJ perform and was not disappointed! This bar is upscale with a large dance floor ! Food was incredible and service was on point! I highly recommend this venue to see live bands and enjoy a full evening with good friends ! I will spend my money here again absolutely!! Food
Dear Harbour Street Fish Bar «The Fish Bar», I would like to inform you that you have beguiled your patrons with your words on your website. You should sincerely revisit your «our story» link and rewrite your hopes and goals. Your website claims that your goal is «to create a place that served good food and everyone would feel comfortable and welcome.» It should claim that your goal is «to reserve tables only for close friends and family, with exceptions only made by the owners. That food will only be served to those that have seats at the table and all others will be told that they are not welcome there.» Your story says that you «have been in the hospitality industry since 1975, and have used a lot of what we (you) have learned to establish a place that would create the feeling of family and friendship, and yet maintain quality customer service.» This should be corrected to read, «Even though we have been in the hospitality industry since 1975, we have learned nothing about treating people with respect and we enjoy creating animosity along with pointing fingers and yelling at customers.» Finally, your hope is that «your (customer s) time at «The fish bar» has been one of fun and enjoyment.» This should clearly state that it is your hope that «your customers will post reviews on Google to warn future customers of your poor business sense and to encourage them to share their awful experience with everyone they meet until you are out of business.» Which, I, personally am hoping will be soon. I am appalled at the treatment I witnessed while a patron there. I left my drink, never ordered food, and would never go back. I urge you to discourage anyone from patronizing this establishment and opt for a wonderful visit at the «Northwinds Brewhouse & Kitchen» where you will find fine food and excellent hospitality. Next time I visit from St. Catharines I will be sure to eat at Northwinds again. P.S. In response to your reply, it sounds as though you are assuming that I am the patron that you were shouting at. I will offer you a bit of advice, never assume. For, I was not that patron, but a bystander observing your rude behaviour. I was appalled that you would speak to any human that way. You are the one that should be ashamed, and by the sounds of some of your other google reviews, you may think about attending an anger management class or two. Very disappointing that you jump to such conclusions and act so vehemently.
Great experiences here. There is wonderful staff, food is always awesome & it s family friendly at all hours. My baby loves the live music and truly enjoys spending time here with all the great staff & patrons dancing to the music. This is a wonderful establishment and I highly recommend it to everyone!
Great food, service. Fish tacos were delicious.
Food prices are too high and the girls can t take orders right wasn t happy won t be going back there
We were in town for our honeymoon weekend and wanted somewhere to go to listen to some music and have a drink. Theres live music there and the band that evening was really good... Would visit here again if Im in town..
Fun place with live music! Great fish tacos with an extensive wine, cocktails, and beer menu. Worth going back! Food
This was a horrible experience. We walked in as black persons and were basically chased out and told this is not the place for us. We were not offered a waitress or felt welcomed. I don t recommend Food
Great place friendly service , definitely recommend coming here.
Had the greatest time this weekend. Food was amazing, service was amazing all the staff were wonderful. the place was packed and we never had to wait for anything. Highly recommend if you re looking for somewhere to dance and have a great time, while having awesome food.
Solid food, a bit expensive. I had the Guinness steak pie and was a bit disappointed as it s not exactly a regular pie, there is crust on the bottom and a crust on the top, but nothing on the sides. Huge portion of fries is a bonus. Very friendly staff.
Excellent food and service. Stayed for the live music and cocktails. Friendly staff and lovely owner!
I stopped going for a while as the staff was starting to become unfriendly. I returned recently and found all new staff to be pleasant and kind and more about servicing rheir customer. Its friendly once again. We are fore sure returning to the place we all favored in the past.
The bar waitress from Ireland was great, but as two cdn with Indian origin, the minute we walked in the histes didnt catch her name but Blonde curly hair just stared at us up amd down like we are not allowed in here. Trust .e I know when someone doesnt want us around being g colored. All others in establishment were Caucasian candians but the attitude to say oh we are full with reservations when palace was empty as place opend at 3pm and we walked in 5 mins after that. We came to eat only and leave to come back to Toronto. Hear good things about fish and chips but not that good. I will never come back to this place e and will let all my colored firemds the experience we got. Oh by the way another host then told her to let us in but seates us far in one corner close to the kitchen. We were hungry and gave noticed this behavior b3fore when away from. The GTA but this was by far the most noticeable. I like yo always give good reviews but this really passed us off. The actual bar wireless was great and very gracious and talkative but the original hostess who was smiling and happy with other customers was completely different the minute she saw us
The wings are still amazing, service has slid a bit. Still one of our favourite spots, hoping the atmosphere comes back around
This place sucks came in, took 10 minutes to flag down a waitress at the bar. Ordered dinner, waited 45 minutes when i finally asked where my dinner was the waitress said due to a glitch it did not get ordered.. i asked to speak to the manager, she wouldn t come out apparently she was too busy Well, nuts to that.. i just left and i am never going back. the restaurants reply below says it all. The arrogance is astounding isnt it?
Nice place, decent music and unfriendly management.
Fish and chips are great!
Great time here, nice place
Great food (I had the fish & chips) and the vibe on a Saturday night with a band was a great find in Collingwood.
Great Vibe and best live music in all of Collingwood.
Great place!!
Watch the junior bronze finish while waiting for take out fish and chips. Kid-friendliness: Friendly staff invited to sit down and watch hockey game while waiting for take out. Food : 5/5 |
Came tonight for wing night special with wings for $1.10 each. Only ordered 10 so not too many but when we did not eat all them we were told could not take them home. Nobody mentioned this to us when we arrived nor thru out the evening. Very disappointed. We explained that we were first timers but didn t matter. Not sure we will be back. And contrary to the owners reply, our friends were equally disappointed. Plus we have been to many wing night restaurants where u can take home as long as u are reasonable in your order.
The waitress had bad costumer service the atmosphere too dark
Great staff and food. The calamari diablo was awesome
Great people! Great live music! Food is good! Staff could smile more! Recommended dishes Halibut and Chips, Mac and Cheese, Beet Salad, Seafood Pasta, Garlic Bread with Cheese
Excellent sea food in a friendly casual setting. Live music.
I called to see if they took reservations they said no and just hung up on me no respect not polite at all
This place has really good vibes. We really enjoyed the drinks, happy hour items, our meal and the cozy atmosphere. They go all out for festivities (ie; st paddy s day) and this restaurant is clean, well run and a really great time. So glad we tried it and we will definitely be back.
Right from the very beginning, the server was incredibly rude. First of all she asked if we were here to see the band we said no just to eat she said well just to let you know if you re here past 8 o clock we re gonna charge each of you an extra $10 to your bill because the band is here. when my friend ordered a water with lemon she rolled her eyes and look to the side and looked at me and said an for you and I asked for the same thing and again rolled her eyes. She barely paid any attention to us, we had to flag her down for the bill, The only reason I gave this a one star is the food was absolutely delicious and I found it fairly priced. My family and I will return, but I will refuse her as my waitress.
What an experience for our first-time visit. Our server, Natasha, was beyond amazing. She looked after us, especially my wife, who accidentally cracked her nail from a falling chair (our fault, not the restaurant). As mentioned on our note to her, this world needs more people like our server Natasha. Keep up the great service!
we had a very bad experience with this restuant. very bad service and food. very disappointed about their behavioral
Tried to get fish and chips today on Good Friday for lunch and the place was closed. What place that is called a Fish Bar is closed on the busiest fish and chip day of the year?
The one server whom appeared to be looking after the entire restuarant was amazing. Food was mediocre at best and the drinks had too much ice. Music was way too loud for the size of the venue. If you want to talk to the peeps you go with, do not go when there is live music.
As you can see from my previous review (left below), this time we were not impressed. Disappointed that they didnt have the pasta. I was really forward to having it. We ordered the halibut and chips, the fish was small for the inflated price, and the fries tasted like theyd been sitting around for a while. Previous review: Im not a seafood eater, so I had the chicken Florentine. It was to die for. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommended. Would definitely come back when Im in the area.
The extra star is only because we had an amazing server who did as best she could. Came to see a friends band play and ordered the artichoke dip to start and was incredible bland, missing garlic, salt, pepper and any flavour really besides raw flour. Asked for the seafood pasta without dairy and it came with a bunch of Parm and garlic bread that wasnt ordered. Great vibes and FOH staff could be an amazing place with more love in the food What a poor response. Two people can order for the same spot. And whether or not it has flour that is the taste it had. Ill take that other star back now
Delicious good, great service!
Very slow kitchen service. The server we had was incredible, however. The atmosphere was fantastic because of the front of house staff. I asked to have the seafood pasta dish adjusted to accomodate my dairy allergy, and it came with a substitute red sauce in place of the butter dill sauce (it was swimming in diced tomatoes..way too much) with cheese on top of it. I picked through what I could but couldnt finish most of it. I didnt send it back because I had waited over an hour to receive my meal as it was. It also came with garlic bread I didnt order which was also buttered and wasted as a result. I was very clear about my request to have this dish without dairy and was told it could be done. We wont be returning to eat here in the future. To add, others at our table complained of overcooked french fries. This place has great potential with the right kitchen staff.
I was very pleased the first time I ate here, the food was extremely delicious. This last visit did not reach my expectations from my first visit a couple of years back.
We went to Harbour street fish bar last month for lunch when there was an open mic. Having travelled for skiing from Toronto, we wanted to try a local joint. We were really disappointed by the service. The server practically kicked us out of the restaurant when we were not done with our food. She took the plate from in front of me when there was still food left, without asking if Im done eating and packed it in a to go box and brought it back with the machine for us to pay!!! We did not ask for the bill??? How is this appropriate? After we pay she says youre from out of town? Have a safe drive! We did not want to leave but we were kicked out basically
Food is decent, can get very noisy inside, service is normal
Came for a quick drink to say hello to people, ordered two drinks and asked for the bill. Stayed max ten minutes, and without saying anything $20 was added to our bill for music appreciation . I asked what it was for and expressed being a little uncomfortable with the charge given our circumstances. The manager came over and I explained again that we just stopped in for five minutes and he was incredibly rude, insisting we should have known and they have it posted on the door. The only signage for this is at the bottom of the hours of operation on a plain piece of paper and it s not something we typically take time to read every bit of so missed. Not so upset with the charge as much as how it was handled by management. Charging a cover is one thing, many places do, but is very clear when they are, never just added to the bill and given the circumstances, this was inappropriate. There was an opportunity to mention cover upon us asking for a table, and upon as ordering drinks. Would have loved to come back for a full experience on another day but certainly won t be now. EDIT: You did indeed have it written under the hours of operation, we made sure to check for signage upon leaving. Again, lots of places do have cover but no where does it like this. Yes, if we had left before music has started we wouldn t be charged. However we walked into a new place we had never been where music was already playing, to say hi to someone and were there for max ten minutes. Given the circumstances, us being there only a few minutes and clearly not knowing about the fee and wanting to leave, it should have just been taken off and explained that for next time if we came we would be charged. There is charging your guests for a service, and then there is just charging unnecessarily. The management defending poor service is indicative of the business as a whole. Stand by my review.
Great place to hang out. If you like live music, this is the place to go in Collingwood. Great musicians, great atmosphere, good food.
Waited 30 minutes and didn t get a menu
Terrible service didn t even get a menu waited 30 mins, won t come back !!
The best food in town. My fellow colleagues enjoyed live music. Our server Jenna was amazing Food
Fantastic chowder that felt like a meal on its own. The location is close to blue mountain and has free parking.
It was a pleasant surprise with live band, food is amazing
Food took very long even though the place was empty. Extremely expensive for a very tiny serving. Seafood pasta at $30 came with 3 shrimps and 1 scallop and lots of zucchini. The coconut shrimp came with 5 shrimps and it costs $18.
No acknowledgement when we first arrived , first table was tilted moved because drinks were going to slide off. Quiet afternoon but still took 40 minutes for salad and tacos. Fish Tacos were good beet salad was very small and not appetizing not worth $18 by all means.The young server was pleasant.
The menu changes from what is online to what is served on weekends. There was no communication between the waitress and ourselves when an issue arise surrounding our dinner. We had ordered dinner and app at the same time but still waited over an hour for dinner and left before it came. Even though it was realized how upset we were, there was no accommodation or apology made.
Great food and live entertainment...ample parking
Very disappointed. We came for dinner, asked to sit inside. The woman at the front seemed more interested in talking to her friends coming in then remembering where we asked to sit (tried to bring us outside). Gave us 3 menus for 4 people. Sat at a booth and waited for 15 minutes - no water, no server, no we ll be right with you . Place was empty so being busy was not an excuse. We flagged down another server to ask where our server was, and she seemed flustered and tried to help (not her fault that we didn t get served). At that point we left and had a much better time elsewhere. Didn t get to even try the food, but based on service alone would absolutely not be back. Reading other reviews it seems we did not have a unique experience. The ambiance was also awkward, but that s because the place was basically empty other than those at the bar. I m the first one to defend service industry places and give them a lot of grace, and I tip well even if some of the experience is bad - so the fact that I m writing a negative review says a lot.
Excellent food 10/10 loved it and would go back Very confused about the owners response, are you alright sir? Food : 5/5
Sue, our Server, as well as the Hostess, were absolutely awesome! They re a dog friendly restaurant and were very accommodating with our puppy who was in training. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and great food. Recommend 1000%!!
Older crowd, great food, great entertainment, all around good time. I would recommend this place. Cheers
Good spot for fish & chips although a little pricey.
Nice place. Food was good and had live band.
great food and live music
Love the live music and the atmosphere.
Select menu items when we went. Food was a bit on the salty side but overall good.
Went there to surprise my wife. I thought but the mangement forgot about me on her birthday which really pissed me off ! Mangement did reach out, too. apologize was short staffed that night . But I still wasnt happy when I thought coming from out of town and though we were on the same page until I took my wife into that place!
Don t come to this place GO TO FISH AND SIPS INSTEAD! (They take down your order)
Coming to the area tomorrow Sunday 08-13 You will need to explain why all the poor reviews before we chose your place
Racist
Good food and friendly service. The boss is cool too!
Absolutely delicious halibut fish and chips! Waitress was very kind and friendly. There was a $10 per person fee if you wanted to stay and enjoy the live music since it was seniors night when we went but we opted to not as it wasnt our scene. The music was pretty nice though with a nice cozy atmosphere.
What a suprise? Live music, fantastic food and the service was exceptional! Ally from Skerries, you made our night by treating us like VIPs! April, our Server, your smile, your attention to detail was delightful! Great live music band, so entertaining and super set list! We had the mussels, bam bam shrimp, haddock and fish tacos and there were zero complaints, just nods and satisfied smiles at our table!
This place is fantastic. Heard good things from local friends, were usually in the area when theyre not open but got to try it last night. The halibut fish and chips were killer and some of the best coleslaw ever. Friend raved about the smash burger and they were right. One of the best burgers ever, and weird that fish place has an awesome burger, but they do. Staff were really friendly. Everyone seemed like they knew each other so assume this place has a lot of regs. We had some drinks at the bar after our meal and everyone was really friendly. Will definitely be back!
Meals were overpriced. Service was adequate. No particular atmosphere. Didnt see the server after she took our order.
Wow is all I can say! We arrived in Collingwood late Friday and this restaurant was open late & close to our hotel. Hubby and I decided to try the seafood pasta and it did not disappoint at all!! The ratio of shrimp & scallops to pasta and veggies was on point. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, speciality coffee was awesome too. Amy served us Friday night she was very nice and all servers were friendly & loved talking to the patrons. The only reason Im not giving 5* is due to the vanilla crem brule it was colder than usual. We ate dinner there Friday night & specialty coffee Saturday, creme brule was a little better. Great atmosphere, live music both nights little loud as small restaurant but we ate on the patio which was nice. Great spot & must try when in Collingwood. Thanks to Jennifer @LivingResortGolf for the recommendation!
Whenever we are in the Collingwood/Blue mountain area this is our go to restaurant. Very small menu, huge bar, lovely patio area. They usually have live bands which take it to another level of fun and good times.
Such great bands. So impressed with the talent. Kat was amazing on Saturday. And Sil as well on Friday. Food was good! Kat Lovett was fantastic as always. Great crowd, and smiling Service.
If you like average food, terrible service, and waiting for a long time for your meal, then this is the place for you!!! When people who were seated after us began receiving their food, we became suspicious that our order had been forgotten. We asked our server about it, and her eyes danced around like she realized that she had not placed our order with the kitchen. Shortly after, a manager came out with an unconvincing explanation. I said something like, No worries, but seriously, did you forget about our order? When she responded defensively, I thought, Hmmmm, sounds like a guilty response. After this, we were treated like we were the problem. Our whole dining experience took just under 3 hours, and this with a young child. Nothing was taken off our bill to express regret about what happened.
Its a great place to enjoy a beer and listen good music
Our weekly take out continued to be Great with friendly servers, and of course the food was GREAT.
Great place for a fast bite. Food was delicious.
Five-star doesnt do enough justice for this place. Exceptional food and service.
Worst meal, I wont return. The calamari was fluff deep fried. The steak and feta salad had no feta and the steak was like eating a hockey puck. I wouldnt even being this plate home for my dog. The new server was super kind, good music, but they charge you 10 dollars without telling you. huge disappointment, wont be returning... ever.
Very Busy night. Had some delays. Awesome Band and Service
Fantastic time with a live band. Dancing...the whole nine yards
If you like great food, you will not be disappointed at Harbour Fish bar. Amazing seafood pasta, fish taco, mussels, crunchy fries and visit their website for Live Band playing from Thursday to Saturday. Had a great time with 8 of my friends, four of them was their first time and they were surprised, they had a great time with food, atmosphere and the live band...the young woman that served us was amazing as well.
Fantastic menu, great value for the money. We also loved the live music!! Highly recommend
Menu is deceptive. Warm mushroom salad (17.95) is listed under the main section with the verbiage that all mains come with fries but they apparently do not. Pricing is almost comparable to some other mains with meat. Having a consistent menu is trivial for an establishment of this size. Waitress and food were great.
There happy hour menu is amazing , great service and people
Went there for my birthday and had a blast. Great food and great music.
Food is great, very casual place with live music
Food was good. Service was good. The atmosphere the music. Awesome if youre looking for a night out with a little entertainment, thats the place to be in Collingwood
Great evening with friends and a fantastic band called Deep Tracks!
Love the atmosphere and musicians!
Live band, bar and dine in restaurant. Live band is twice a week, Thursday and Saturday nights. 8 pm. Theres a $10 per table fee if you are staying for the live band. Atmosphere is very lively and service is great. Our server is Night, probably her stage name? Very attentive and friendly. They also maintained their take out service from the shutdown.
Seafood pasta was spot on perfect
Nice music , mid week entertainment was amazing
Awesome place. Loved the service and food. Live music rocks.
Had a amazing night on Saturday April 9th Adam is the best server I could ever asks for! He s amazing at his job and has the best time with his customers and makes sure they are never forgotten. Need more people like him in the industry! I ll be back for my jack and Coke s whenever I have the free time! Now my favourite place to be!
Excellent service
Excellent customer service Our waitress was attentive and very friendly Atmosphere was amazing Live Band was awesome A must go too for sure!
Great atmosphere, amazing staff and the fish was so yummy!! Would definitely return and recommend!!
Convenient location for us to visit as we charged our tesla at the Supercharger in the parking lot. A pleasant surprise for the location. My wife really enjoyed the fish tacos and I loved the halibut fish and chips. Nice atmosphere too.
I just got here and all of the servers are having a blast! This place is full! There is a live band... Its a high energy environment and the food looks and smells amazing......Tashia, our server is quite fantastic! Thank you for everything....we will be back soon Thank you to Tonia who also looked after our table.
Excellent raw oysters Fridays 4 to 6pm. Phone ahead to make sure they have them in
Came here a few times now. They have live music bands on Saturday nights and they have dancing too. Great atmosphere. Fun place to come and have some food and drinks. We really enjoy coming here
Ordered takeout from here and it was insane! The bam bam prawns are to die for.
Great wait staff and food. A little too dark inside.
Stopped in for lunch, it was amazing and filling! Fish tacos are the best tacos Ive ever had My child had the catfish and chips and loved it- ate every bite! Definitely recommend and cant wait to return They are currently short staffed but that did not effect the food. The service was still fast and absolutely lovely The manager was a delight(lady with short hair and black framed glasses)
Solid place. Good fish n chips. Slow service but they warn you coming in that it is.
I had order take out the meal was great and staff very friendly
Came in on a Thursday night. Had a band playing, so loud couldn t even carry on a conversation. I had fish tacos, average at best. Service was OK, but the sign on the front door letting us now that being short staffed is the new pandemic, we weren t expecting much. Having more fresh fish instead of battered and fried would likely be an improvement. Likely won t be coming back.
Had a great time, band was playing on the Thurs night. Food is very good, nice big patio also.
Food was good but I find the prices are very high. $19 for a 6oz burger and fries.
Great service. Food tasty. Will go for straight up fish next time. Great music!
Delicious smash burger at lunch. Very friendly servers who accommodated our large group on the patio with aplomb.
Love the food, so fresh and satisfying! The cook really cares about the quality of the food they put out. Will definitely come back again real soon. Friendly staff.
Very disappointed! 1. Our crab cakes (2) were made with Pollock fish and not actual crab meet. $18 later 2. The balsamic dressing was a puzzle to my husband. He couldnt figure out why he wasnt tasting balsamic. I tired it... The aunt Jemimas table syrup overpowered any cheap balsamic they used. It was thick and gross. 3. My Cod fish wasnt as meaty as Im used to...but hey, if they are substituting crab meet for imitation stuff and table syrup for maple then they probably served me Basa instead of cod fish. The $100 bill just made everything worse. We wont ever go back!
Got six frozen to deep-fried butterfly coconut shrimp for 17.00 to start. So that was disappointing. Ordered Cat Fish. Came with no seasoning just breaded with only cornmeal and had a extreme Fishy taste (way more then normal with Catfish) Fries were soggy both our Pepsis were totally flat. I asked for another to wash the fish down and another dipping sauce when we got our food, both never came. The staff were nice and my wifes mussels were good. Hopefully was a off day
Came to blue mountains for weekend, the service is worst ever seen. When waitress took us to the patio, the mop was still there on the table Waiter came and said how are you before I said anything, she replied to herself good . We complained there were flies around patio table. We asked to switch another empty table. She said there s flies everywhere, this is what you got at patios . Fine. We refuse to eat at such services
Amazing atmosphere! Jenna and Adam are outstanding hosts. Great food and band. Definitely recommend for an authentic experience and great time
We had the halibut, really large portions neither of us could finish our meal. Service a little slow, but they are looking to add staff.
Horrible service , stopped by to grab dinner and waited on my table for a of 12 mins for a human to acknowledge my presence let alone get me a menu , they were at 50% capacity so there is no excuse , the girl that got me to the table only cared about a $10 cover for the band
Terrible ! They give you Attitude ! There s a sign on the door that says short staff be patient ! What a nice start. I called ahead of time and asked for reservations and they said first come first serve. I asked if they have a patio and they said yes. We were staying across the street at living water resort and was there 5min after calling. When we got there the patio was full of empty patio tables but we could not be seated because there wasn t enough employees! What a joke. Don t even bother going here.
Staggeringly slow service. We beat the dinner rush and still waiting nearly an hour for food to come out. One server kept sitting down with his friends at their table which had great attention from the crew that was on. Our waitress on the other hand was actually working, was polite and seemed to be stuck apologizing to many patrons so what is the kitchen doing?!?! When the food did eventually arrive, it tasted good, the chicken sandwich had great thick crisp bacon on it, but the kitchen speed is failing the rest of the house. Order takeout if you come here, or if you stay make sure you are friends with a server to get your food.
If you own a Tesla, DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT - BOYCOTT THEM This restaurant next to Collingwood Superchargers Harbour Street Fish Bar said they do not care about the business from the Tesla owners because she doesnt want them to use their washroom while charging. The owner said she gets very little business from the Tesla owners, so she doesnt care about upsetting all the Tesla owners. See her attitude in her comments below; seems to have anger issues; must be a horrible working environment for those poor servers dealing with an owner like that.
Excellent food from appetizers to great salads, and incredible main courses. From Calamari, to fish and chips its fantastic! Great staff and live entertainment Thursday and Saturday evenings. They have a great patio as well. We found are new favorite bar n grill in Collingwood. Check it out, you wont be disappointed! Parking: Tons of parking.
This bar needs more staff. I don t know what to say, I worked in the service industry and I took my kids out for a nice night out and it was I ve an hour for apps and wait staff seemed to be at a point the could care less. I get busy, but this was a bit much for what we were dealing with. I am not high maintenance, but if I could get garlic bread earlier than an hour plus after I order it..it would be great. Unbelievable don t come here. Don t waste your time
Excellent Calamari Diablo Excellent service Good beer Parking: Handy in front of patio Wheelchair accessibility: Immediate cubside
A bit of a wait but worth it. The cod fish and chips are very good and so is the crispy chicken burger.
Service is extremely slow. You have to wait for everything at least 20 minutes. To be waited 20min. To get drinks 20min to get food good 45min to get bill 30min. Dont understand why people dont write what you order. They always try to remember and of course dont get your order right. And try to bill you for what they did not bring.
Wish I could say I ate here but barely got in the door last night. We got in but were asked for a 10 dollar cover charge which we didnt mind. There were 8 of us. 4 adults two 11 year olds, a 4 year old and a month or pd baby, when the server returned and asked us for cover for the kids.. really? Cover charge for a month old baby? So. You turned down what could have been an at least 500 dollar table to try to squeeze another 40 dollars out of guests that took their business elsewhere, to ask a cover charge for a month old baby? Lol Ive managed and been in the business for almost 30 years. And the minute they asked for a cover charge of the kids, I laughed and said were leaving. What an absolute joke. Couldnt pay me to go back. Hahaha 10 dollar cover for a month old baby... Smh lol I cant hardly believe the s is an actual story.
Seafood pasta was delicious!!!!, thanks Chef!!!
Had an amazing meal on our girls weekend! Great service
Great band, great fish & chips!
Its typical bar food. Service is good, our server was very nice. If you love bar food, then this place might be good for you... For me, it is was too unhealthy. The s&p chicken wings were too salty. We went there as we just got to Collingwood and we were starving. This was the only place open close to our hotel.
We always visit this place every year for the past 7 years coming to Collingwood and now our 3 year old loves the atmosphere in there especially when theres live entertainment. Definitely our favorite go to spot in Collingwood.
French fries was old and i inform waitress And. She said OK :(((
Great live music, friendly staff and delicious food.
Nice meal and friendly waitress. Must eat!
Bar pretending to be a fish and chip shop. Draft beer was cold, about 8 drafts, 4 or 5 different types of fish and chips served. Place was clean. Server was friendly but inexperienced. Ordered the Cat Fish. It was ok. Coleslaw was not ok. Chips were the best part. Suggest you try a coffee shop a few doors down. Save some money. EDIT: The nasty comments from the owners are a good indication of what to expect.
Food was delicious and staff was super friendly!!
What a fun place! We had good food and friendly service. The night we went there was band that played classic hits that got everyone out on the dance floor.
Really enjoyed the visit. Food, ambience and service was great Parking: Many superchargers available for electric vehicles Food : 4/5 |
Food was amazing and almost worth the drive from Ottawa!! Service was quite slow but we were warned as soon as we walked in. It was well worth the wait. Servers were working as fast as possible and were very friendly and accommodating. Parking: Lots of free parking.
So when we got there we thought the food was a bit expensive but there was so much on our plates and it tasted so good it is definitely worth the money and the service if I could give it a rateing from 1 to 100 I would give it 1000 it was a amazing experience definitely going back again
We had fish tacos and chips and a salad. The 2 fish tachos were huge, with a soft and hard taco together with the ingredients and a battered piece of fish. The fish was a bit pasty and mushy. I was expecting a California/Mexican type of taco not fried battered fish in the taco. Chips were Ok.
Great food. Friendly service. Stopped by for a quick bite today and was thoroughly impressed.
Lot of flies
