Had an excellent dine in experience earlier visiting for the first time this morning. Both servers working were lovely and such a warm welcome the second you enter the door. I can’t wait to visit again and try more items off the menu and the wide selection of home made desserts!

August 9, 2024

I came here on a referral from a coworker. He said the Monte cristo sandwiches were really good. I don't know if I'll give them another chance... We waited for over 5 minutes at the front... I walked around the restaurant looking for someone and finally someone came out. I understand they might have been short staffed so I didn't mind that part however I ordered a steak sandwich and home cut fries. The Fries were soggy... We did take it to go eat 2 mins down the road at the river but I don't think they should've went soggy that fast... Again, I'll give them benifit of the doubt there.... However my steak which was supposed to be medium rare was grey and very tough. I think they microwaved a frozen steak maybe. There were a few carrots which were too hard (not cooked enough). The mozza sticks were decent enough. All around it was a bad eating experience. I do not recommend the steak. It was so tough I used it as Bait on my fishing hook and even this fish didn't want it 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Restaurant looked cozy and I used the bathroom which was very clean so 3 stars for atmosphere. But the food was terrible.

March 22, 2024

Had the halibut, had a big bone puncture the roof of my mouth on the first bite. And then 2 more. Brought to the attention of the server. She said “that’s the way we get the fish here” I said that no excuse for cutting/slicing someone mouth open. She left, came back with the full bill. First and last time for me. 12:30 March 22 lunch. Never again. Lol.

🌳 Where Ol' timers go hang. 🍀 Silent hidden Gem. Its camouflaged in broad daylight. 🌿 Renovated and nice. 🌲 Fast , prompt service. Fresh hot food. 🔮 PS : To the waitresses - its rude to stare.

The service is very good, the food not so nice, the scrambled egg didn't have flavor. There weren't also much variants in the menu, very similar and not much for vegan diet. It was nice to have courteous and nice staffs attend to us especially though.

★★★
March 7, 2023

The staff is great. I like the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the items I tried weren't that great. I went two times now. The scrambled eggs, French toast, and poutine were all extremely bland. I also bought a blueberry pie and the crust was pretty awful. My daughter's chicken alfredo was okay. I don't usually like salt and pepper added to my food but I had to add both for flavor. Maybe it was just two off days.

Great atmosphere and unique menu options. Food was okay but portion sizes were massive. All in all a great little joint.

Don't spend your hard earned money on the name places, go to Ms. B's and enjoy good home cooked meals. Fresh baked bread and bakery items are the icing on the cake. They have have great food from out east....I especially enjoyed the split pea and ham soup. This place has been a staple in Fort McMurray for a long time, I heard of it by word of mouth. When I'm not at Fuji Sushi, you can find me at My. B's. Be sure to try the pie!!

I dont know what happened but we usually enjoy Mrs Bs. Today we both ordered steak and salad.mine was medium my husband medium rare..when the order came we noticed how small steak was..they cooked one steakand cut it in half so my husbands was overcooked..he told server and about4 minutes later brought another price of

Great tasting homemade food and service. Tons of food to eat..you will be stuffed when you leave. They have a display of tasty sweets you can buy when you leave like homemade pies and squares. I am obsessed with the turkey meals they serve. REAL turkey is used not rolled. Hot turkey and Clubhouse sandwiches are my favorite meals.. You can eat breakfast or dinner at anytime of the day.

I been going to this restaurant for 10 years when I lived in Fort McMurray. Been gone now for 6 years. Back for a visit today and decided to go to my favourite place. Very disappointed. The toutons use to be big and really good. Now they are like hockey pucks. Very hard. The bake beans were very runny. Would have enjoyed can beans better.

The only reason they are getting 2 stars is because the lady serving us was very kind and they drop a coffee pot at the table so we can serve ourselves our coffee. Other then that the meals were terrible. I ordered the steak and eggs and it was an atrocious piece of meat cooked in the fashion that would give Gordon Ramsey a brain aneurysm. The hollandaise sauce comes from a factory in liquid form and had the consistency of warm jello and tasted...bad. The hasbrowns werent the worst and the eggs simply were over cooked, although not as bad as the steak. Steer clear of this homecooking style, sub-denys quality food.

well just had the worst breakfast I have ever had at Mrs Bs in all the years Ive been going there. First the bacon oinked at me when I put the fork in it. Called the waitress over she took it back to the kitchen and they dropped it into the chip fryer and it came back as a burnt offering. I ordered beans as well as homemade toast never even got those item. if I could give a zero for this visit that would be generous. The third time she brought the bacon out at least it was halfway edible, but after taking my plate back to the kitchen twice the eggs and hash browns were cold and gross.

Local Guide
December 22, 2019

Way over priced coffee. $3.25 a cup for bland coffee. Give you all kinds of options for your side but dont tell you that if you take the *not* deep fried hash browns but want home made grilled (likely cooked 4 hours ago and sat under the heat lamp) you are charged extra. Want any of the options other than white bread? Thats a extra charge. Kids meals dont come with drinks. The tiny cup of milk? Thats $2.00. you think youre getting a descent priced breakfast but wait til the bill comes. Two kids and two adults? $60 for breakfast and we didnt order anything special. NEVER going back.
