Moose Winooski's in Kitchener

I used to like going there. But over the years, it has become just an overgrown pub. Patrons come for a business lunch but cannot hear themselves. The place needs a serious update including the menu.

Nice to take the family for lunch or supper .

Great place to grab a drink and some Chipotle maple bbq buffalo tenders and watch the game!

Cozy atmosphere. Great food. Awesome staff.

Good food, wish the menu had a little more but what we got was very good. Atmosphere is great! Staff were friendly. Prices are a bit high but your paying for the gimmick.

Food was not that great, wont go back.

Great as usual

Took my family to lunch . Their meals were decent and plated nice my fish was over cooked and a substitute ( removing a topping ) not honored it was inedible at first I had to take it out and cut around the burnt pieces and alot off hard access batter . I mentioned this when she asked and she just ignored me and said awesome as if she didnt hear me or didnt care . I mentioned it a second time and just straight up ignored me . I may try again but I have learned dont order fish here or expect wait staff to listen . On top of that I recieved my bill and had to wait for a machine .. I had cash tried to mention it but didnt seem to get through... but after waiting for no reason and all the other lack of attention paid I used my card just to avoid waiting longer on getting change made for large bills . Ill try once more but probably during a week day as I always had great service before taking clients out for work Ive always considered this place above and beyond expectations before today

Parker is a beauty! He s gotta be employee of the month for real!! He s funny and connects well with the customers (my table). He went above and beyond plus more. Beauty

Dont get me wrong, it is awesome atmosphere, definitely a great place to gather with friends and family, and even a chill date night. Service is great, however it is the food that is a bit lack luster. We were told about the nachos and although unique as it had seasoning on the chips, the amount and taste was still not the most impressive. I got the lumberjack platter and was left hungry, although the tequila lime wings had great taste. The ribs not impressionable either, also not hot. I wouldve said my choice was ok, except the fries were also not flavourful. The rest of my company got mainly burgers, and no one was impressed. Still wish the best to this place!

Wonderful service

I loved the Moose when it was in Barrie, so was excited to see that one still existed here! The wait staff did fantastic with our large group hockey players (tournament weekend). Food was great, quick service, fantastic atmosphere, and my teen told me he especially liked the bathrooms because they had TVs in them!

Love this place, great menu and friendly service

A little pricey but worth it

Amazing

Will go back. Clean. The food was delicious. Vegan options. Good service. Fresh burgers are delicious.

Service was great. Super busy when we went. Food came out hot and tasted amazing

We went for dinner with our two young kids (2 and 5). It was a welcoming and light-hearted atmosphere. There were a lot of food options and the food was great. The service was absolutely incredible. The seating hostess was engaging and clear with her directions. The wait time to be seated wasnt as long as they expected despite it being a very busy Saturday evening. Our server was amazing. He was a young gentleman, engaging and very attentive. We strongly recommend this place! We will be back again if we are in the area

Great sports bar and restaurant mix with tv s everywhere you look. Huge selection of draft beers. Trust me you want to be here for game day!

We always have the same server Karen K and she is amazing. She is engaging, always smiles and is a pleasure to deal with.

Came here after leaving Brewhouse. Our drinks came quick, as well as the food. The Foragers bowl was to die for, my fish and chips was amazing, has not let me down in decades of going off and on. Would definitely recommend going here over some of the other spots nearby.

Great experience

Had a terrible experience with the server. she was extremely rude and arrogant. asked for an extra fork and she would show up every 10-20 minutes and when reminded her again we were asked in a very rude manner to be patient. instead of bringing what was asked for she brought our bill and no manager came along. would not be going back there again ever

Terrible experience with bar staff member and floor manager. asked for straw for my drink she came after 15 mins with my other drink and didnt bring straw when i asked she responded have some patience. called the manager rather then listening to us he brought the bill and asked us to leave. he said i have to back my staff up. its like nobody is there to listen to customers. never going again.

Always excellent food and service here! This visit, we ordered the Parmesan Three Cheese Garlic Bread, Szechuan Noodles with Chicken, and the Chicken Tenders. All were delicious! The service was fast and friendly. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back when in the area!

Chicken wings are must try. Bruschetta were really good. We enjoyed our time there with great food and great ambiance.

This was the first place we went to visit on my first visit to Canada, we are Brazilians, I hope to go more often before I return to my country

Best place for birthday great food good service friendly stafall around five star

Great food for the whole family. The service is always excellent.

Food 1 star , service and atmosphere 5 stars. This place is so n Kid-friendliness: Great for a birthday party they have a wheel with prizes that they get to choose think of cake and they also seem to you with a special and hilarious hot that makes you look like a moose

Chicken Wings are as delicious as they have always been over the last 30 years that we have been going there. Kid-friendliness: Great for kids. Would like to see the Moose helmet come back and Polaroid photo for birthdays.

Service is underwhelming. During later times of the evening, they don t seem to be too interested in customer service. Food is good, but prices have skyrocketed!

Went out for a birthday with a party of about 10 people. Our server, Allison, was super inviting and attentive. It was a busy day so the restaurant was pretty loud but that s to be expected for a Saturday! Overall everyone very much enjoyed their meal and the outing. Dietary restrictions: We required gluten free options and our waitress was very helpful in assisting with finding options.

Moose is a Kitchener staple, amazing atmosphere for the game, patio chilling or bring the family for a good ole Canadian sit down!

I have not seen this place since I was a kid, Im in my fifties now. A lot has changed around it, but it was very nice to see that this place stayed, after pioneer sports world. Brought back a lot of great memories

Very much so a cottage vibe! The food was really tasty. Two in our party had salad which one had asked for allergy accomdations and they had no problem accommodating. Both decared it was the best salad they have ever had out at dinner. The brisket poutine was really good it was the exact craving. The fish tacos were extremely good. The waitress was wonderful! It was very busy with people waiting out the door! Parking: Really long walk for parking from the front door. Very congested parking lot. Kid-friendliness: 110% with kids menu items Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious and very easy to get in and around.

Amazing experience! Staff are awesome! Especially the manager Joe! Super friendly, hands on and attentive! Vegetarian options: Lots to choose from!

Nice place great food ,fast service but a little pricy.

Had nachos. You used to have amazing nachos. This was like a bag of nachos dumped on a plate no cheese asked for chicken and had 11 pieces of chicken on complete plate? ( I counted then). Also had Sheppards pie it had pulled pork in its menu did not say anything about this. You sure have gone down hill!! VERY expensive! Lot of way better places to go to for less $ and better food

Grace was a fantastic server for our party , made it a great fun time and everyone was served on time and all together

Not a varied selection.

I called to see if the resteraunt was busy if I needed a reservation they said no you wont have any issues. When I got there a 45 minute wait!! I ordered off the gluten free menu. Asked for bruchetta with no cheese... There was cheese on it so I sent it back. 10 minutes later it arrived with small flakes of cheese on it. I should have walked out but I continued ordering.. I ordered the gluten free wings with veggies and dipping sauce. When my wings arrived no dipping sauce. I told them please bring me my dipping sauce. They didnt until I was half done my food. And said it was plant based. That isnt what I asked for... Whatever. Wont be back.

The Cabin burger was delicious .

Great place to catch up with friends.

Good place to hangout but Little expensive

Overall good bar food, but when busy service is a bit dodgy, takes a while for the servers to pay attention to you during busy lunch rush, which is understandable. Nachos are always a hit and the bowls are good.

I came to Moose Winooskis on Sportsworld for my sister s birthday, and it was a letdown. She didn t get the usual birthday experience, and both our meals came out cold. Mine had to be replaced twice, and her meal was made wrong and took forever to arrive. The server was kind and took my meal off the bill, but the birthday dessert a half-hard cookie with a small scoop of ice cream was underwhelming. Definitely not the celebration we expected.

We had my Granddaughters 10 thBirthday here . Everything thing was amazing from the food to the service .. they definitely get a 10 out of 10 in my books.

Took my entire family for my 7 year old bday. Great place for something like that and great service and food. Thanks

Debating on how many stars to give due to the service being great. Staff very nice and attentive. Spinach dip was really good. However, the main meal was not good at all and having it be around $33 dollars for the rib, wing, brisket combo it was very disappointing when splurging. Awkward to complain while out with friends who are celebrating a birthday. The ribs were inedible and dry. The brisket extremely dry and the bits that weren t were too fatty to eat. No flats with the wings. Cold fries. Felt like this meal sat and dried out under a heat lamp which made it not even worth eating. Left feeling very disappointed.

Theyve got it all figured out. Food is fast and delicious. Staff are very friendly. Places like this exist because of good management and it shows.

Great outdoor dining area, friendly and efficient service, delicious plant based menu available.

Great atmosphere, service was good and the wings were great.

Great place for a variety in the KW area. My go to spot for a drink and app.

Food was delicious, service wasnt great

Good food but the grand hall is loud when it is busy.

Food was terrific. Order was perfect. Our waitress was spot on Her name is Peyton and one could not have asked for a more pleasant, kind, personable girl!! Thank you.

It s a really good place to hang out. They have very good ambience and the food quality is also pretty decent.

Great place for a drink

Lily R was fantastic.she made our experience great and is one of the reasons we will always come back! Her and the rodeo dry ribs!

The inside is very comfortable, warm and inviting. This restaurant has the most extensive plant based menu Ive ever seen and the servers are very communicative. I ordered the delicious plant based fajitas, every plate I received had a sign that marked it as vegan. An employee even came to the table to double check that I wasnt given sour cream. The level of attention Moose Winooskis gives to customers is definitely above and beyond and I will be bringing family back here whenever I can. Vegetarian options: The back page of the menu is entirely plant based options. There is a huge variety including pasta, fajitas, tacos, burgers, rice bowls, and szechuan noodles.

Great food, great environment!

Was a great place

Good food and service. And an interesting atmosphere. Ill go back.

So much nostalgia from this restaurant. Extremely family friendly and a good selection of food to choose from thats reasonably priced.

Food was great, and the prices felt pretty fair. We are definitely coming back. My only criticism was that it was a bit chilly in the restaurant, as we were sitting under an HVAC diffuser. Food

We visited Oct 13/2024 Enjoyed their lovely patio on a beautiful fall day with clear blue skies and warm sunshine. It was fun and relaxed and people were just enjoying the day with a few rays of sun and a cold beer Our visit was spontaneous but there was lots of room both inside and out. The inside decor is nice with a canadian cottage feel...love the huge fireplace :) Service was prompt and friendly and the management made adjustments as the patio got busier (well done) Menu is similar to box chain restaurant such as montanas or milestones but elevated. It was Octoberfest in Kitchener so I had their cabbage roll special - delicious.

Turned on what my boyfriend wanted to watch and felt like we had a private booth.

In spite of being fully booked the servers were very pleasant, cheerful and accommodating. Noisy due to being booked solid and many celebrations going on. Not a place for a romantic dinner. But if you want great value and service this is the place. Vegetarian options: Many great items to choose from. Dietary restrictions: Many delicious items to choose from.

Absolutely fantastic place!!!!

The food was average, but the service was good. A fun atmosphere. The prickly pear margarita is delicious!

No cheese :( was told Id get some on the side but never received. am very sad

Thank you so much for helping make my birthday celebration even better. You staff is amazing so friendly and the food was yummy. Thank you again.

I hate sports bars, but I love the patio, service, staff and the food at this place. I was also impressed with the amount vegan options available.

Awesome Bavarian themed specials.....Octoberfest abounds in this restaurant.

Got the nachos. They were perfect! I couldnt stop eating them. I also LOVE the atmosphere and the server was extremely fast and friendly!

Great service ! Shepherds pie with brisket was savory and delicious.

Fantastic and a perfect place for a Friday night dinner out. Cold Stella beers. Great appetizers (Artichoke dip, ribs) and a great dinner menu. (Burgers were really good). Id recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a great beer, good service, good food and a few TVs to watch. (OK, lots of TVs).

Delicious, been waiting a long time to get here but well worth the wait! I had a cheeseburger and fries with an iced tea

great atmosphere and excellent service by alana ! she was super sweet and helpful and made a great experience an exceptional one!!

Great service. Abby, Rees and the entire team made me feel special. The food was amazing and they separated the sandwich so we could both enjoy. The patio wad perfect. I will definitely come back

Stopped here on my way home from a business meeting in KW. I grew up in Kitchener and was curious if the wings were still as I remember them. Guess what, they were. Big wings, I thinking double dusted/breaded and great taste. I am glad some things don t change!

Went with a large group of over 40 people. Very well organized and efficient. My steak was cooked perfectly, and the sides were excellent! Decent selection of beer. The kids loved spinning the wheel and getting a pie in the face for birthdays! Great experience!

out on the patio. Great food. Burger was fresh. Burger was excellent. Turkey club amazing. Friendly helpful staff. Great experience. Will come again!

Really nice place, I love the back patio area. Cream cheese with spinach and artichokes comes highly recommended.

The main dining area needs to fix its accoustics. The far corner booth seems like an echo chamber and its almost like you have to yell across the table at each other to hear one another. Its not like that in the bar area but the last time I was there I had to keep raising my voice to talk to the person across the table from me, whats funny about it is the dining room wasnt even half full. I cannot say if it was just where we were sitting but I am just going to sit in the bar area next time, or on the patio. Parking: Big parking lot right outside the entrance, just have to cross the street where the pedestrian walkway is. Not to much traffic there. Kid-friendliness: Classic kid menu with trivia games and what not, to keep the kids distracted. You only get three crayons (classic red yellow and blue though)....but thats no big deal. I do like they put the paper out so you can draw on it, fun for the kids, and adults too. Wheelchair accessibility: Seemed like it has all the ramps and what not for those who require a wheelchair.

Loved my time there just like any other time Ive been there and looking forward to going agt Kid-friendliness: Get place to bring children but not geared towards them but a safe and accommodating place

I liked it very much, atmosphere is very cool

Vegetarian options: I did the noodle bowl it was delicious..I had the vegan cinnamon bun for dessert finger licking good. My husband and I enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended! Food

Our service was indifferent this evening. We had persuaded a visitor from Europe to try MW with us because the atmosphere, service and food quality was outstanding. Instead we experienced mediocre service and food that we might find at any roadhouse in the area. Out sever pretty much ignored us after the first drink, which we had to initiate. We had to ask another server to take our order. She explained that our server was busy. That made us feel so special. She never once aproached to ask if we needed more to drink. The food was good, but having eaten the same dish in pipers arms down the road 2 days earlier, the portions were a little smaller for a similar price and Pipers service was outstanding.The atmosphere was better here but the service really let it down. We punished the server with a 10% tip but I wish we didnt have to do that. We appologised to our visitor for our bad choice. It will be a long time before we are back. We might be your 20th customer tonight MW. But you were our first choice and you failed badly. Shame on you. No doubt this review will be met by some well sounding canned response from the owner about contacting them to share my views, but the truth is that i have been eating here for over 20 years and the service has gone downhill. Wake up and smell the coffee guys. Your competitors are eating your lunch

As a predictable restaurant chicken finger orderer, I have found moose Winooskis to have the best chicken fingers in Kitchener. Especially the Buffalo fingers. Great atmosphere!

Great ambience, indoor and outdoor, love the vibe

Great food and service

Our anniversary, and where did we choose to go for dinner? The Moose, of course. Service was excellent as usual. Amanda the new manager was so kind and Lauren our hostess went the extra mile to help make our night special. Our server did a fantastic job but we didn t catch her name. We ve been going to Moose Winooskis for years and will continue to do so because of the tasty food and excellent service!

It was great so delectable

Looking at the menu, the wings caught my attention. Was very satisfied with my choice!! The whole menu is very well price compared to many other over inflated restaurants. Thank you !! Food

Nice place

Went tonight for mine and hubbies birthday. Wont make that mistake twice! I had fish and chips, would not recommend! Fish was mostly batter and burnt and so greasy it was sliding off the plate, fries were under cooked and whole meal was tasteless. We also had the mooseman sandwich with brisket, it was so fatty we had to fight with it to bite into the sandwich which was also missing flavour. Both meals were disappointing and left us running for the washroom by the time we got home. Do better Moose!!! You USED to be so good, what happened???

A bit overpriced for pub/fast food where service is not fast. But great place to hang out with friends.

Loved it! And the Forager s Pasta is possibly the best pasta I ve ever had.

This review is long overdue but we celebrated our daughter s 6th birthday on July 19 and had such an amazing server. I wish I remembered her name (I believe she was also a teacher and her dad is a retired firefighter). She made our daughter and her friends feel so special! She was kind, attentive, accommodating and overall just had such a great energy. I hope this review makes its way to her as I would love to thank her again for doing such an excellent job and making our daughter s birthday so great!

This is a kid-friendly restaurant and bar. This is the first time I saw kid s menu in a bar . The atmosphere is perfect and I like the mousse decoration. CAMPFIRE MUSHROOM SKILLET is cream-baked mushrooms that are juicy in your mouth. THE WOODSMEN burger, love the fried onions inside. The most delicious thing in TUNDRA PLATTER is the ribs, which are among the top ones I have ever eaten. Finally, there is also a TV in the toilet here, which is so fan-friendly So considerate.

My husband and I were staying in the area and went to Moose Winooski s twice because the food was that good! The jumbo wings are amazing, the burgers are juicy, but what tops it all are the desserts. Their dessert skillets, especially the s mores one, is a must-try!

Amazing probably one of the best wings Ive ever eaten anywhere great food great establishment nice patio

For an enjoyable date with friends or partner or family! Go n chill here Do try nachos Prices are resonable Vegetarians can enjoy as the place does-not smell of meat at all Waitstaff was so nice to me even when i spilled water I tipped big just to say sorry and they were so nice about it I will definitely go back

Mikayla was amazing!! Nicest server there by far!!!! Considering my last experience there was no so pleasant, tonight more than made up for it!! Also, I tried the cheesy quesadilla and it was AMAZING!!

This place is still a lot of fun. I appreciate all the vegetarian food options - there were a lot. It s a bit loud and lots of families with young kids but they the atmosphere they re going for and it wasn t unpleasant. Very fast, friendly and capable service too.

Good food great service

Great service, clean, friendly atmosphere. Food choices is great. Great for celebrating a special occasion or just quiet night out.

Great place to eat

Good as always

Great Wings!!!!

The vibe is fantastic, very The quality of the wings was so good a bit pricey

Love going here when Im in town Dietary restrictions: They have a gluten friendly menu, and havent had issues. Food : 5/5 |

Great food, large portions. The staff are all friendly.

A bit of a surprise at this restaurant. We expected the typical fast food style grub but we re very surprised by the good quality food we had for our lunch. Everyone loved their dishes- from Boulder Burger to Noodles , it was all great. But the real gem of this spot is not the food - it s the staff. It has been a very long time since we have been to a place where the staff were smiling and all really looked like they cared about their customers and their satisfaction. It s a credit to the management that they keep the staff happy and able to serve their customers - kudos to all.!!

Prompt quick service and food for our table of 8. Only thing was it does get quite crowded and close. Food : 5/5

Great food. Great atmosphere

It was okay the first waitress couldnt be bothered to help anybody she was too busy wrapping Forks

Food was delicious and very filling! We had great service and so we were in and out pretty quick. 10/10 will go again

Cool restaurant, really fun theme! Food was what is expected for a family place, with lots of options for vegetarians and vegans. Our waitress was attentive and efficient, and kept our drinks topped up as needed. It was very crowded on a Friday evening, so suggest making reservations if youre bringing in a large group. There is also a walking path and waterfall adjacent to the restaurant, with plenty of seating and areas for kids to run around. Vegetarian options: Tons of options for vegetarians and vegans, an entire page of the menu with items like wraps, burgers and pasta. Parking: Lots of free parking in the strip malls lot, just across the street from the restaurant.

Ultimate kitchener classic.

Very good overall service by our server, she did a fine job. Bad service and attitude by the girl at the bar. Why? Who knows Unnecessary. Simple communication skills and less attitude would do the trick. Hope management considers it. Unsure they did.

I have been twice, food has always been good, surprisingly the nachos with the beef brisket was amazing, will definitely order again. Brisket is nicely done and burgers are great. The atmosphere is fun. Will return for sure

Great service from our second waitress. Food prices have gone up, and the food was ok... nothing exceptionable. It was my twins birthday and they love going there to spin the wheel

Its okay, not worth a detour
