Great place to eat. Never disappointed with whatever we order. The lemon pepper chicken wings are excellent! Friendly service with a smile, and always accommodating. The Christmas trees and decor make for a magical nostalgic atmosphere.
Well we all had a great experience and lovely dinner Saturday. We met there for our family reunion dinner and it was perfect. Thanks to Paige for taking our reservation and our server was spectacular. Everyone loved it and we will come back again and thanks so much for everything. Have a good week. Frank & Sandi.
We were on our way home from our honeymoon in PEI on Thanksgiving day and really wanted a traditional turkey dinner. Hops and Barley had it on their menu and it was delicious! The butternut squash soup was exceptional and the turkey, the gravy, the potatoes, the stuffing and the the pumpkin pie were equally delicious. The lady serving us was also exceptional. She was professional, friendly, kind and funny. Thank you to her for a great experience and conversation. And a big thank you to the lady who sat us in a spot so that we could keep an eye on our vehicle which had our pups in it! All around a great experience. Highly recommended.
I’m still waiting for a bbq chicken burger after 50 min, I’ve been told that there’s a big group in the back, however it’s too much for a burger, besides even when the waitress saw me when I arrived, it took her 10 min to bring the menu and take my order, so while I’m waiting I’m reading the opinions and there are several situations similar to mine. The place may look nice but when the service doesn’t match it, it means nothing to me. I’m a guest at the hotel and I decided to give it a try because I’m tired and I didn’t want to go out, now I regret. First and last time for me here, I haven’t even tried the food but now I’ve lost interest. And what’s worse, another customer that arrived long time after me is already eating. If there were half stars I would use one.
Been on the road for 15 hours, wanted to stop for a nice sit down meal with family and we got seated way in the back where no one could see us. It took the server over 15minutes to come over and greet us. We then ordered our drinks and food at the same time, advising we were pressed for time. An hour and a half goes by with no update. We decided to cancel our orders and leave. They did not offer to even comp our drinks, just apologized. Looks like a nice restaurant and hotel but would never go back.
Had what they called Filet Mignon. It was cooked medium well. The meat was nice and pink. BUT the toughest steak I ever had in a restaurant. My guess is it was roast beef made to look like a Filet Mignon. Not even marinated to make it tender. I recommend they do a better job if they are going to substitute less quality cuts of beef. The Shrimp was good. Presentation not bad but you had to dig to actually see there was shrimp.
We stopped in for lunch. I got the bangers and mash which was alright. I have had much better and I prefer actual banger sausages then the ones they served. The French onion soup was top notch. Fish and chips were really well done as well. My kids liked the cheese pizza. I tried it and it was nothing special. I would prefer a more crispy undercarriage but that's my preference. Service was slow for there being our table and 1 other as was the food to come out.
Decor and fireplace warmth was nice. Waiter Marc was very experienced and excellent! Food was unfortunately just okay. Portion sizes were good but taste and quality were average. For the price that was disappointing. The best item should not have been the amazing complimentary garlic loaf. Also a warning, the menu in the restaurant does not match the menu on the restaurant's website.
Quiet & cozy place with quality service and food.
Wow! Good value, great service and the food was delicious. The table was nicely appointed and the conditions in the room were very comfortable.
Went for a special event evening and it was spectacular. Easily accessible with very polite, attractive staff
Excellent service and quality food.
Really great service with amazing food. Nice slightly upscale atmosphere and dining. Cocktails and food were delicious.
Amazing meal!
Had hair in my plate !
If youre looking for a fantastic place for breakfast buffet. Look no further... Great breakfast, its quick, lots of options. My family of 4 goes often, there are plenty of options for even the pickiest of eaters. We leave stuffed and its usually around $50. No dishes, no waiting... Give it a try
We actually never ate at the restaurant itself but weve ordered takeout so many times I didnt count them. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough, the food is amazing. Weve tried many meals: fish&chips, roast beef dip, chefs fettuccine, seafood fettuccine, Buffalo chicken wrap, fish tacos.. .. all excellent. Service is also great and fast.
Wonderful dinner experience on April 20, 2024. Tasty food, generous serving sizes, good vibe at the restaurant and very attentive and friendly staff.
We were there for the mothers day ! a group of 22 ,and it was phenomenal. Great service with pleasant staff, good variety on the buffet menu, buffet area was a little tight and restraining line was long and slow moving.. but good enough for a return visit ..
The server Trudy was again a pleasure and made the lunch experience even better! The lunch itself was excellent ...try the fish and sweet potato fries !!! A terrific experience
Excellent brunch on Mothers Day for an affordable price.
Best food, and servers are always so friendly. Great atmosphere.
Food is amazing especially the fish and chips there is to die four
Love the decor! It s always so relaxing when I go and the food and drinks are great.
Delicious great ambiance, cozy and great service! Making it a regular habit!
Just had dinner at this restaurant which we frequent while in Cornwall. We are from Toronto. Todays experience was poor. Service was just OK, food was good, and price of beer (Stella) absolutely ridiculous at $12.95, plus tax, plus tip. Beer was underpoured (below line on Stella glass). Complained to waitress who said their beer prices were lower than most places in Cornwall (absolutely false!) Tried to find out name of Manager to complain to and was given the run-around. We were told that restaurant was not part of Best Western, and was totally independent. Yet, we finally got name of the AGM (after expressing our concern with several staff), who has a Best Western business card. We plan to email complaint directly. Probably will not be back given this overall bad experience.
Awesome hotel and restaurant! Great food and wonderful staff! We stay here every time we come to Cornwall.
This place is a hidden gem. Had to go to Cornwall on business. Stayed at the hotel. I typically dont eat at hotels for a million reasons...but this place was packed when I arrived to check in. My entire stay I ate here for room service and in the restaurant. Very friendly staff, cozy lodge like atmosphere. Great beers on tap and great wine and drink selection. I had ribs one night, literally fall of the bone and good portions with house made bbq sauce. The house salad with my favorite pickles onions with the mushroom pasta the next night agian delicious! Im a foodie and I would stay and eat here to try more dishes. Great find in a small town..
Great spot, super friendly people, good food, lots of parking!
Had the Shepherds Pie, fantastic, not many other places serve this!
Everything was very good here - haddock tacos big thumbs up by all who tried them & same for the rest of the appetizers ordered (no mains ordered this time around). Staff was great to - thanks to all for a nice evening.
Terrible. Everything was frozen or precooked and reheated, and very overpriced. Not worth any money. Service was very good though, and nice.
It is a lovely family restaurant. My wife had the fish and chips and it was really good. The next morning, we had breakfast. The service ran like a clock.
WOW!! filet mignon was A1 Great meal totally perfect.
Absolutely excellent service and food. Thank you very much for this experience!
Fantastic haddock and chips, and haddock tacos. Top marks from my 90 year old Mum, and you know how challenging the elderly are!
Bartender Junior rocks!
Food was exceptional. Deep fried pickles were amazing. My husband had fish and chips and I had fish tacos. Both dishes were super tasty. Our server Linda was friendly and offered great suggestions. We had a leisure meal in the comfy chairs after a long drive and she never hurried us out. Would definitely return here next time we are in Cornwall.
It was a wonderful place to stumble on while traveling, everything was great and the best part our dog was welcome
Love the soft chairs and cozy unrushed atmosphere. Dinner was excellent.
They weren t even busy and my beyond meat burger is literally raw lol. What the hell is this! Paying 20 dollars for a restaurant meal yeah I get it I get take out but this is messed up. yeah I m vegan so what? Me eating a raw beyond meat burger can still make someone sick. I hope the owner sees this. As if nobody cares about vegans this messed up. Good thing I looked at it before I took a bite. Vegetarian options: Horrible they didn t even cook it
Great food
Hearty lunch buffet
Great service and diner was great. Our server was very polite . We enjoy our experience everytime we have a chance to go.
Great food and staff. No ginger beer though. But bubbly sparking water is a dandy replacement Food
Delicious food. Good customer service. Beautiful environment
Sunday brunch is our favorite
Great service, food, and atmosphere!
Great place. Good food. Amazingly helpful and friendly staff. As a group of 4 we had a wonderful evening.
I stay at the Best Western in Cornwall because the food at Hops & Barley is always delicious
Our team stayed at the Best Western in Cornwall, the restaurant on site, Hops & Barley, had a great buffet breakfast with fruit, breads, muffins, hot selection of eggs & sausage or bacon, yogurt, oatmeal. The lunch and dinner menu was varied, fairly priced & delicious. Highly recommend stopping for a meal if in the area!
Absolutely delicious. Service was excellent and the food is amazing. Even the wine list is very nice. We totally recommand. My husband had the Buffalo chicken wrap and I had the Chefs Fettucine.
Staff ignored me finally got up and ordered take out for dinner. Breakfast different experience friendly staff great service.
It was delicious , service was excellent , thank you !!
Very good food and awesome service!!! I would 100% come back!!!
A bit tricky to find via the address on the website, as there does not appear to be any signage at the Best Western (Its inside the building! Google maps provides a little more info.), but well worth a bit of trouble. Great service, nice atmosphere, cold beer, and very good food. Will definitely be back!
Nice spot to grab the food and it s also attached to the hotel so you could ask for the room service. Friendly staff and house salad is refreshing
Good food reasonably priced. Recommend the ribs!!!
Great service, good food
Breakfast staff was great. During the evening, slow and seem lost. Couldnt even pick up the phone. The food was good.
I have nothing to say about the breakfasts... they are great and the staff is lovely. I had dinner here during my last stay and it was nice (in the summer)... albeit overpriced. But this time around was quite terrible... I ordered chicken wings for my 4 year old who wasnt happy with the kids menu options, and ordered MILD wings of course for him. We got our food after a very long wait and my son just tried the sauce on the wings and they were spicy. We all tried the sauce with our fingertips... they were not super spicy, but had a real kick nonetheless. I asked the waitress if we could have kids pasta as a replacement and I explained why, she said of course. We waited SO LONG that my kid was almost asleep by the time we got it. I had to ask for it in a takeaway container. Then I saw that I was charged for a whole plate of wings! Not a single bite was taken out of them and they were NOT mild. The waitress apparently spoke to the manager but he wasnt accommodating. Afterwards I even noticed they charged me $2 for the mashed potatoes that COME WITH my chicken!!! They were in the description! I didnt ask for them! Anyway, I was furious, left a note, but nothing was done and I ultimately had to pay $95 for a meal for one adult and 2 children... AND we spent about 2 and a half hours there even though we ordered less than 10 minutes after arriving. Never ever returning to eat an actual meal I have to pay for here.
Amazing atmoshere and service. I had their ribs and they were fantastic.
Supper Saturday December 10. Very busy, very very slow kitchen, an hour just for appetizers. Wine is very expensive. Two orders of ribs were burnt, not eatable & not paid for. Would be to long to reorder. Disappointed to say the least. Will be a long time before returning.
Excellent Experience Food was A1
Nachos had one nacho with cheese maybe 2 max. Onion soup best Ive ever had. Chicken Wings not bad and cheap. Limited menu due to reopening after Covid closures but didnt mention this when I reserved. Less than 10 people is restaurant and when we were ready to order, they ran out of steak. Staff Friendly.
Not crowded, fast service, friendly staff and good food. Thumbs up. Nice ambiance
The bartenders/servers here were great and kept me laughing
Food and service excellent! Buffalo wrap and fries very tasty and very filling!
We went for our anniversary the service was excellent the food delicious we had escargot and seafood Alfredo with marinara sauce which we asked for and they accommodated us and it was perfect
Honestly didnt know what to expect when when we arrived. We were met by Michelle our server who was so helpful, polite and kind. The food was amazing with the fish tacos being some of the best I had. My wife had the chicken wrap and couldnt stop raving about it! But in all honesty the highlight was Michelle who exchanged drink recipes with me and was beyond cautious with my allergies. She brought the experience from an 8, to a 12. We thought this would be a quick stop over and Michelle made it such so that were already planning to visit again, next time wee visit the east coast. Thank you again for everything we will be back soon!
Ordered the fish & chips dinner. Also staying weekend at Parkway Inn & Conference Centre.
Four of us had dinner here on the patio. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the service. They allowed us to bring our puppy on the patio and the server even offered her a water bowl which was very nice. We will definitely be back.
The club sandwich was PERFECT
Worst meal ever. Ordered French Onion soup, turned out to be mushed bread with no broth. I was asked by the server if I wanted more broth, what the heck to add to the mushed bread. So disgusting! Also ordered Chicken Fettucine with Alfredo sauce, there was no visual of any sauce so bland...First time dining here, impressed with the decor, then the food came...so disappointed. I was thinking that the Chef called in sick and had to settle with a staff member. I had to post a star, I wouldnt give any. We were going to come back with our huge family, until the food arrived.
Was so hungry had bacon cheeseburger seemed like best bacon cheeseburger ever
We had my daughters dinner here The waitress was nice n friendly and the food was delicious and prices were affordable. Definitely going back
What is happening to this place? We supported them all through the beginning of Covid19 and everything had always been delicious. We have gone twice in the last month and the quality and consistency is laughable. The bacon cheeseburgers we ordered were extremely overcooked and dry with one small strip of bacon on each one. We ordered 3 club sandwiches, one on a wrap. Two of the sandwiches costed $4 more each then the menu said and the wrap was the right price but made completely differently. The club sandwiches had guacamole, a (sad) strip of bacon and nice white chicken breast. The wrap (which they forgot and promptly made in 3 minutes) had only brown chicken meat, lettuce, tomato and mayo.. no bacon and no guac. This place is going downhill and it was once our favourite spot, its really sad.
Awesome. We go here because the food and atmosphère are perfect. We have high expectations and have not been disappointed.
Delicious meal! Great service!
Amazing experience every time. Truly a hidden gem in Cornwall.
Great service and our meals were good.
Very good exelant service
Great clean Excellent food and service
Ambiance was good but food just average
The foods pretty good. Its a bit pricy though.
This place is in the Best Western great service and great food servers are always right there to help you
Food too expensive & was not very good for what I ordred
Not very tasty. Limited menu Not overly impressed.
Great staff and service, yet food was ordinary (somewhat bland).
Ive been here a few time for family events (mothers day brunch, wedding etc..) and dont like the food at all. The service is friendly, its clean and the cocktails are priced reasonably but the menu is just an average pub menu thats even below the standards that youd expect at a chain restaurant. Its 2018, but the menu seems like it was made in the 90s. Why not source local ingredients and make innovative, fresh , healthy, flavorful dishes? My family lives in Cornwall and seems to choose this place for special occasions purely because of the formal-ish decor and lack of options, but it really isnt worth trying.
Food was good, excellent waitress. She had all our orders ready and brought to the table almost at the same time. Great job as we were almost 20 people
Nice atmosphere, not cheap food but does taste pretty good
Great service and food
Great service, very friendly and helpful wait staff. Had their fish tacos and ceasar salad and was very happy with it! Would definitely come back!
I came here a while ago and didnt like the food at all. On the recommendation of a friend, I came back and I have to say the food quality has improved significantly! It is now up to par with the decor and the service and very much worth the cost. Nice!
We have been going here for years. Celebrating our wedding 30 years ago, Anniversaries, Birthdays and even celebrated our loved ones life when passing. So when we wanted to reserve somewhere for my daughters graduation from nursing, there wasnt a question on where we celebrate her special day. The food again did not disappoint and the service was above & beyond as usual. Big kudos to you Peppermills for once again putting smiles on our faces and being part of another milestone in our lives.
Went for breakfast buffet for fathers day. Waitress was very sweet. Food was good, but for the price it could have been better.
Decent meal
One fine place to enjoy your evening with someone special
Sunday breakfast buffet is great. Food is usually good and the service is always amazing
Nice ambiance. Good food
The food was ok. Had Shrimp and fish and it met the expectation without being fantastic. The service was horrible but at the same time dependant on who your server was. Cindy is perhaps one of the worst servers I have ever had. I believe she would be amazing at job that isnt customer facing. Management needs to be more aware. In the mean time I will continue to wait for service.
Jim loves this place.
This place has the worst service and the food was not sanitary
The wait staff and decor are good But the food is just awful. I will never go back to this lousy restaurant . there were overcooked and undercooked pasta mixed together on my plate(how does that happen?) , lobster that got served to us in an inedible state and some of the worst appetizers ive ever been served (frozen boxed mushroom appetizer i suspect) and very dimly lit so you cant see the problems...avoid this restaurant at all costs
