Had dinner on the patio this season. Patio was packed. Very busy place, hard to get a spot in unless you have a reservation. The food was good but the service was very slow. Waited 15 minutes for our drinks and one person at our table didn't even get theirs, we had to ask for the drink again. Then we asked for a take home container and waited 20 minutes for one long after we paid for our food. Not impressed

The patio seating was really nice & our server Jasmin was warm, friendly & efficient. The food was alright but below what I expected especially for the price point & compared to other similarly priced restaurants in downtown Kingston.

Hotel was excellent, so I thought the restaurant attached would be as well. For the price point, I had high expectations, but was let down sadly. Lots of other great local spots to try out, but I'd give this one a HARD pass.

It took 25 minutes to get 2 beer on the patio. But it was good and cold when it did arrive. The young Irish man singing was excellent.

Lovely restaurant, especially if you sit out on the patio! There was a good selection of a variety of options for food and drinks. I got the agave mule which was tasty and cute! For my meal I got the wharf and feather burger. It was delicious (very large) and the fries were crispy and good! The cheesecake balls were also a yummy dessert option, but the little chocolate bark pieces were very bland, and I probably would've just preferred a slice of cheesecake instead, but they're good for sharing. Overall enjoyed it!

Late night meal needed with an elderly guest. Unfortunately, too much of the food is highly processed. My mom needed a basic soup due to eating difficulties and the only option was fish chowder and she can't eat fish. My sister is vegan and she basically had one choice. As a guest, I would never choose this restaurant if I didn't have to. Too many better choices up the street if you don't have mobility choices!

We happened upon this place by accident. Waterfront patio, delicious food and live music on top of it all. A real gem. We feel like we won the restaurant lottery! Try the mushroom crostini, the mussels and the pear Brie bacon sandwich! The music was Cuban. Mario was amazing!!! And even the service was awesome. Muchas gracias. This was a night to remember!!!!

Underwhelmed. We had the mussels to start, followed by the seafood pasta and the ribs for dinner. The mussels and the pasta were good but nothing special. The ribs were pretty sad. Due to the higher price point I had higher expectations and yes the food was decent, but I could get the same or better for less elsewhere. Overall, three stars as again decent food and also a great patio.

I had a fantastic dinner here! The Winter Mule cocktail was perfectly balanced and seasonal, and the Waterside Trout was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Service was fast and friendly, making the experience even better. Highly recommend! ORDER a side of garlic bread OMG insanely good!

Spur of the moment, our family of four decided to book a dinner in one of the Winter Domes. The food was absolutely wonderful, and the drinks tasty; the Gougères, cheese-filled choux pastry were sublime and barely lasted 90 seconds! Our server was friendly and we really enjoyed the atmosphere: my kids loved being under the dome, while watching the blowing snow and lapping waves. My only complaint wouldve been the booking system, which involved a little phone tag, but thats admittedly my being fiddly. Will absolutely return and have recommended to all family and friends. My children cant wait to return with Grammy and Gramps next time!

February 22, 2024

Was not impressed. We had reservations for one of the Domes and when we arrived they informed us that they were double booked. They neglected to inform us after arriving there. Both parties came from out of town. Would have appreciated a call or an email. And it was late. I would never come back!!!

Had a great dining experience at Wharf and Feather. We reserved a dome at the patio. The ambiance, service and food were amazing. The seafood bouillabaisse was pretty solid, so were the gnochhi and the fish & chips. Since we were celebrating a special occassion, they gave us a special treat on the house. The best thing was that the dome was pet-friendly. It was a great dining experience. Thank you for the wonderful service!

We thought we would try out the winter domes last night. The server we had was wonderful and went above and beyond dealing with the weather and the finiky zipper on the dome. We were even called ahead of time and warned to dress in layers as the wind chill was drawing a lot of heat out of the domes. The food quality was very good. I enjoyed my burger and we shared the cheese donut appetizer. The domes were a good setup other than the door did not seal at all. I believe it was installed incorrectly. There should have been at least 2 heaters. Blankets were provided, but it was pretty cold even with them. The patio set within was not comfortable for dining. It would be good for relaxing with drinks and maybe apps, but not dining. I couldnt get my feet under the table and felt like I was cramped the whole time. The dome should be built on a wooden base of some sort to help with insulation from the cold cement patio. All in all, it was a good experience but be mindful of the weather. This would be good for plus temps, but not when you get minus temps and high wind chill . Parking: Large lot with free parking once they validate you at the front desk.

$45.00 Christmas Day brunch, awful, no gravy for the processed Turkey roll, ham was tough, poutine tater tots were discussing and soggy and nothing was hot. Cold waffles, cold crepes, Quiches were dried out. Whipped cream should have been real dairy cream, but was that terrible edible oil product. Discussing meal all around. No cranberries either. There wasn t much for a Christmas Day Brunch for the price, it was very disappointing, will never go there for brunch again. Used to go all the time when the dining room was upstairs, then the food was amazing, real dairy, and they would slice the meat in front of the customer. Today s experience was bad.

Please note the hours posted on Google are incorrect. The restaurant IS open at noon and offers a lunch menu. The patio is beautiful and is situated right on lake Ontario, with a great view. Our servers ( we had two) were very friendly, welcoming, and the service was fast, checking on us multiple times throughout our meal. The food was delicious and prices reasonable. Thank-you for a great experience during out visit to Kingston. We will definitely be back.

Food is amazing, Experience feels like a soft opening. Took 25 minutes for a first round of drinks, half our table got food after an hour then 30 minutes later the other half got their food. Asked for a second round of drinks with dinner and they came 20 minutes after dinner was served. Again, amazing food, horrible service (There was maybe 10 people on the patio so they were not busy) *Edit* Been back several times since and its improved greatly so could have been a one off bad experience*

Margherita flatbread: clearly canned sauce. Doughy as all heck. Gross. French onion soup: bread with the consistency of cous cous. Chicken wings: severely under, barely warm. Server: Katrina J - didnt appear to care whatsoever when we voiced our concerns. But hey, at least she brought us water without asking?

Had a business dinner here. I had been wanting to try this place because the menu seemed solid but I was disappointed. One person ordered the strip steak and it came out looking very over cooked and not very appetizing. When he waitress put the plate down she said apparently we serve it cut up like this now with kind of a shrug. That didnt give a lot of confidence. The other guest had fish adn chips, which looked fine but she left 1 piece of fish. I had the seafood chowder (which was strangely spicy) and the honey sesame wings. The wings were good - I would have those again. The seafood chowder left a lot to be desired. Leaving the skin on the fish is...a choice. I didnt finish the chowder.

★★★★

I have to say that overall, this is a quality restaurant. For the times I went, the food was very good to great. I had ribs which were okay, I think I just personally didnt like the sauce. Plus I was eating on a full stomach. Its not a 5-star but its pretty decent, all things considered. Solid 4 for sure.

It was great the last time we ate here during a hotel stay. This time was a disappointment. It would have been better to have planned ahead and brought take out. The hotel doesnt have microwaves in the suits... What is with that

December 22, 2022

Went for my Mother s Day brunch and the service was the worst experience I have ever witnessed. Server claimed to input all the meals correctly and proceeded to blame it on a computer error or the Kitchen staff. Manager did nothing to compensate the lack or communication and food coming out cold or not at all. Ruined the morning for what was supposed to be a special day for our Mom. I would not recommend this restaurant to my worst enemy.

I found this place by chance during a walk along the water front. The staff was super friendly and very accommodating. I will be honest service was a tad slow, but the food was definitely worth the wait. My Dad had the MacKinnon Brothers Beer Batter Fish and Chips, myself I had the Pear, Bacon and Brie Sandwich. Both were fabulous! The portions were large and the price was definitely on point. I cant wait to return. I must have that sandwich again!

We stayed at the hotel and added breakfast to our package. I wish we hadnt and explored other options instead. Although convenient to have breakfast downstairs, we waited a while to be seated both days even though the restaurant was not too busy. Tables were not cleaned up or looked after and there was always alot of food on the ground. The buffet had the basics but nothing special - definetly not worth 20$. The carafe of coffee were a nice touch. Next time we will stay at the hotel but wander to local coffee shops for morning treats

We decided to try this restaurant tonight. We ordered off the Kingstonlicious menu. The charcuterie board was a fantastic selection of meats, cheeses, crackers , pickles and fruit and nuts. I think the bacon jam stole the show. We both enjoyed the roast beef dinner with crispy Yorkshire pudding. The only thing we missed was some horseradish. We were too full to finish the beautifully presented cheesecake duo. Our server Joey was excellent. All in all a delightful experience.

Went for my birthday made a reservation and they gave us the best seat on the patio! App (mussels) were okay, not very flavourful. Everyone was happy with their main course (though they were out of our first choices of steak). Skip dessert. Not worth it at all. Drinks were great.

Horrible service on Sunday July 25th 2021 brunch, place was not busy and seemed to have lots of server. We ordered and waited for 25 minutes and had to ask our server where our food was and she said sorry the kitchen was backed up. Then a miracle happened a few minutes afterwards when we asked her again to check to see where food was, she came back with it immediately, and it was about 15 minutes cold and even the lettuce had time to be wilted. In these though times rebuilding the customer base is important and management should have trained her better or at least keep an eye on her especially in a non busy time. Shame on you folks. Everyone reading this, stay away as there are so many other good choice in Kingston that this place will soon disappear.

My husband and I booked a reservation to celebrate our wedding anniversary approximately 2.5 weeks in advance. I followed up with staff when our family were planning to join and were told that two tables would be put together for our party of 5. When we arrived, we were initially informed that there may not be a table for us even though I had a reservation for 6:30pm. The staff then took us to a table which only had three seats. My Father-in-law had to grab a chair and thankfully a Manager came with a 5th chair. We were required however, to squish at one small table despite being told even via email that two tables would be put together. In my reservation, I was asking for seating by the water; we didn t get that at all. I even called to confirm that we could get a table by the water and was told yes on two different occasions by staff via phone call. It was also confirmed via email. I saw that a table cleared by the water and I explained the situation to a staff. She said it s only by reservation . I then told her I made a reservation. She said she would have us moved, walked away and never came back. Another staff also stated the same and we never were moved. I was left crying from this experience. My husband & I were so upset, we couldn t even enjoy our food. It was an awful experience, one that should never have happened.

I had a Birthday dinner there. Well, had dinner there, didnt feel like Birthday, thank you very much. In comments I specifically indicated that I wanted the secluded area in order to celebrate with my husband, just the two of us. Instead when we came in nobody greeted us, we were standing there asking if we can sit somewhere and were told to wait (and we had a reservation, we were finally addressed two 20 minutes after our reservation time when we occupied a table ourselves). Mind, they DONT read the comments for your reservation until you point it out. Food was ok, nothing special whatsoever. Patio was closed (the reason for that never was explained and nobody said it would be closed, 3rd stage though) Again, the wait time first to place an order, then to ask for a dessert, then to get a check and finally to pay (!) was super long. Apparently because party of 2 is not important enough. after we received the check we waited another 15-20 minutes to pay for it, and the restaurant was not really full. Oh, and dont forget that the restaurant is adjacent to the lobby of the hotel, so you can hear everything (except, maybe, music or your party): screaming children, people getting ready to leave/ to check in in the hotel, etc. I didnt see that until I actually came in There are lots and lots of places to go in Kingston, avoid this one at all costs in order not to be disappointed.

Several weeks ago took my 4 yr. old grandson for a special dinner with Grandma. Only reservation was for 5:00 on hot day. Sat us in one of few tables with no umbrellas, even though countless tables empty, and remained empty the whole time. Sun beating down on us was difficult. Then, no waiter until I went in and asked for one 25 minutes later. Hostess standing out front must have looked at us a couple of dozen times, did nothing. The rest of the dinner was fine, waiter was good, and did take dessert off the bill. So three stars instead of two. I was contacted the next day by the restaurant saying they hoped I enjoyed my visit - when I replied that it was less than satisfactory I did expect to hear from them perhaps, but did not. Not a place I would go again.

I was there Thursday evening with my BFF on our 5th year anniversary. Let me just tell you. It was single handedly the BEST dining experience both of us has ever had. Every single thing was rated 10/10. The food, the vibe, the table, the view and the service. The food was literally the best steak we had ever tasted. It was cooked perfectly, nice and thick and sooo juicy. The potatoes were light and airy yet crispy on the outside and not greasy. The mushroom crustini was out of this world and Ive been craving it ever since, and the Pear Brie sandwich was to die for and like nothing Id ever tried before. Our server McKenna and the host McKenzie made our already perfect experience so memorable. They are both so pleasant and sweet. Super engaging and fun. Everything we ordered was McKennas recommendation and she nailed it! I am counting down the days until I can go back and I will be requesting the beautiful fire-table right on the water and in McKennas section and Ill be ordering 2 portions of the mushroom crustini haha. Thank you for making our evening so much fun and so special

Found this great spot for lunch. The setting on the water front patio behind the Holiday Inn was very nice. The service was very good, and the food we had was excellent. I had the fish and chips, and my wife had the homemade clam chowder which she said was amazing, both dishes were large enough portions to satisfy a healthy appetite, and I have to say, the best fish and chips Ive had in a long time.

December 22, 2021

Unfortunately we were very disappointed in our experience. My boyfriend had made a reservation early in the week but when we arrived they had no record of it what so ever. They seemed annoyed but agreed to seat us. They seated us at a table that was very unsteady to the point we needed to hold our drinks to not have them spill. We ultimately had to be reseated as we had 2 kids with us and it was a disaster waiting to happen. When our meals arrived my partners Angus burger was raw in the centre and the fruit on my charcuterie board was rotten in a few places (grapes/squishy raspberries) The server was lovely but thats about the only good thing I have to say about this restaurant. We asked more than once for condiments and cutlery. We had been excited to eat here originally but will not be returning again. Talk about disappointed.

For some unknown reason, we were only allowed to sit at the bar to eat, even though the restaurant was empty at the time and the terrace was too windy to eat. We ordered fish and chips for 2 people. Undeniably generous portions, but the fish was undercooked and when cutting it the batter spilled over the plate. Really not edible. This is very unfortunate. And to make matters worse, guests after us were allowed to sit at a table in the restaurant. Bad experience.

One of the nicest patio s in Kingston

December 22, 2021

Disappointed. We had decided on this place to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary a couple weeks ago in September of 2021. After peeking at the menu and pictures of how romantic this place looked online, we were excited to have our dinner here to celebrate our special occasion. It would be our first time eating at a restaurant since the pandemic. We arrived in time for our reservation (we requested the outdoor patio) and had to wait a few minutes for someone to seat us. Excitement filled as we were wondering if wed be sitting near the flaming fireplace or near the water with a view as we could see tables available. Finally, someone came to seat us and we gladly followed her to our table....it was a very short walk away. It was the first table from the outdoor entrance tucked away in a corner where they store all of their extra chairs/heat lamps. We sat down and thought about it and decided to ask if it were possible to sit at one of the empty tables deeper into the patio. Unfortunately we were told that they were reserved for a large group that wasnt even sure if all would show. We explained that it was our anniversary (we even put that in the notes section of our reservation) and our first time eating out yet they were unable to guarantee a table for us if we were to come back later (our own suggestion). There was no effort to take our number down to call us if a table opened up. There was no effort to make sure a decent table would be reserved for us for our special occasion even if it was put in the notes section when the reservation was actually made. We ended up leaving disappointed. However our night was saved when we ended up at a nearby restaurant with a fantastic view! They were full at the time but offered to take our phone number and text us when a table was available even without us making a prior reservation! Our anniversary turned out amazing...its just that we did not spend it here at the Wharf & Feather. The food and patio looked inviting, but unfortunately the service and understanding of its customers were lacking.

Staying at the hotel for business purposes - although I did look at other restaurants in the area, felt like this was fast and gave me more time to finish up on work. Service was on par, nothing negative but also nothing to note positively. As shown in the picture, the Smoked Meat Sandwich was quite lack-luster. The meat was Luke-warm and didnt have much flavour profile, other then mustard no extra addons and the rye bread was very soggy on the bottom. Honestly didnt look or taste like a brisket, but a beef roast. I can only imagine the meat if warmed up in a watered pan and the meat soaked up a bit. Massive pickle, almost to big to eat (why not cut in 1/4?) Salad was decent. Next time, I am going to go to another restaurant if I stay at this hotel again.

December 22, 2021

WORST SERVICE my friend and I have ever experienced. A friend and I were staying at the hotel for the weekend and decided to try this restaurant for breakfast based on the convenient location within the hotel. The website and the sign in front of the restaurant in the lobby indicated that breakfast is served until 11:00am. We arrived at 10:15 and waited patiently at the entrance for a hostess/server to seat us. At 10:30, a disgruntled server approached us looking annoyed that we were there and said sternly you two come in here and then I m closing. We shrugged awkwardly and entered the restaurant (we should have left!!). The waitress moved the sign (that indicated the hours of operation) to block the entrance behind us and then left us standing there in between tables of other diners for about 10 minutes. While we stood there another pair of hotel guests approached the entrance. As the waitress was walking by she shouted at the new guests loudly WE RE CLOSED! even though it was only about 10:35. The guest behind us looked shocked and tried several times to speak to the waitress as she passed by huffing and puffing and the waitress completely ignored her. We were finally seated and then waited another 20 minutes for the waitress to return to take our order. In the meantime, the ignored guest at the entrance approached the waitress and said excuse me, the sign says you re open until 11:00 to which the irritated waitress replied Fine, find yourself a seat and I ll get you served. The waitress continued to walk around loudly sighing while doing seemingly nothing for the duration of our time there. The food was mediocre and forgettable. We each order a glass of orange juice which arrived 45 minutes later after our meals were almost done. I will say the waitress comped the juice when our bill arrived so I suppose that s the silver lining. Overall, this was absolutely the most abysmal service I ve ever experienced. Will absolutely never return and would recommend others steer clear unless you re into being treated like a burden and scolded like a misbehaving child - all the while spending $50 for a nightmare breakfast. PS: Go to Peter s Place! Absolutely lovely breakfast and top notch service!

Charcuterie board was very good. Wings were listed as one of the specialties and were just poorly fried (greasy, not very crispy) frozen, breaded wings. The breading was also waaaay to thick. The service was very good and the scenery is lovely.

Another reviewer commented that they felt they won the restaurant lottery when they dined at the Wharf & Feather, and I 100% agree. The Wharf & Feather hosted a large dinner event for us that started with ~60 guests but due to popularity, expanded the-day-of to almost 80. With zero notice, the chef and staff were able to provide an outstanding three-course dinner for all our guests. The soup, chicken, beef, vegetarian, and salmon dishes were all delicious as was the banana bread pudding. Everyone at the Wharf & Feather went above-and-beyond to ensure that we had a wonderful time. The waitstaff was very friendly and the overall atmosphere welcoming. A+ for service, food quality, and experience. Thank you Wharf & Feather!!!

Wonderful meal! Served by super friendly and helpful staff, and a chef who cared enough to come to our table himself to check on how we were enjoying our meal. Will return!

Great time on the patio with a table top fire. Started with happy hour appetizers of steak and mushroom poutine and mushroom Asiago dip. Both were delicious! My hubby had the wagyu burger and I had the pear, bacon and brie on grilled rye. Very tasty. Service was great too.

One of (if not the only) restaurants in Kingston with an outside patio waterfront view. Food was good but service was slow. It was nice that we could go on a Sunday afternoon (one of the busiest times for restaurants) and there were available tables.

Great view, everything went down quickly after that. I ordered a mojito and it was the worst I have ever had. They also got my wifes drink order completely wrong. That was enough and we left.

Stayed at the hotel. Hotel very nice bit this restaurant is not. Took them 45 mins to bring out a garden salad with a steak. Then the steak was over cooked. Skip the food here and go else where.

First time I went to restaurant it took 10 minutes before the server came to our table and we only ordered drinks. We decided to go back and have dinner and we sat there for 15 mins and didnt even get acknowledged by one member of the staff! Brutal service and as a local very disappointed!

Went there for Birthday celebration lunch and the service and food were above and beyond,in what l expected. With kind friends, l was given many birthday presents, so the helpful waitress help put them on a table, next to us. Also, some of us had the special of the day and it was cooked perfectly and tasted great! There was so much food, that l could not finish it!! The waitress (when noticing it was my birthday celebration lunch) brought us a special dessert treat, for the four of us to share. (She was neither asked or charged us for it. She went above and beyond her duties, during our whole visit!) With having the special of the day and being a resident of Kingston, l received $5.00 off of my meal. Upon showing our parking tickets to Hotel desk staff, we received parking for free!! We were all very impressed with the service from the time we stepped inside the doors. We will be back and we highly recommend your place of business, to family and friends, looking for a great place to go out to eat!! See you soon!!

Service is poor. Food is ok. Took us nearly an hour from the time we went in, just to be seated and get a drink.

Service is really, really slow. 20 mins after ordering for drinks. Wont provide the check unless you tackle the waiter. There are plenty of options to eat downtown, this shouldnt be one.
