Excellent spot to go for some pub grub and to watch the game. Monday and Tuesday wing nights are the best times to go if you don't mind a crowd.

The Bigs, Mount Pearl Food: Mostly very Good Service: Depends on the server It was one of our favorate places to go for a Friday night meal. I mean 2 to 3 Fridays a month. Aug. 25, 2023, My wife & I went in for a meal. The server was new. My wide explained how see liked her meal. It got messed up & the head server blamed my wife because they had to make it again. I ordered my usual hot coffee to go with my meal. I sent it back because it was old & cold. I didn't realize until the next day that they charged me $7.99 for a specially coffee. We stopped going there until we got invited to join some people there for a birthday celebaration. We slowly drifted back. Last night we there for a meal. My wife had her usual & I ordered wings with my usual hot coffee. Coffee was warm but tolerable. When the meals were served, I asked for a refil of my coffee but i wanted a hot coffee. The server refused to make a new pot & warmed the old coffee up in the microwave. Needless to say, this was my last time.

This place was absolutely horrible. Me and my boyfriend went there for supper on a Sunday evening. We both ordered the steak which was super overpriced and over seasoned we couldn’t even finish it. The fries were like mush and the corn on the cob was super well done and wasn’t eatable. The garlic bread was the only decent thing on the plate and it was burnt… not only was the food bad but our sever was super rude. She didn’t introduce herself, she like dropped our drinks on the table spilling a bit and didn’t even bother to wipe it up. When she came with out forks and stuff she pretty much just tossed it on the table giving me a bit of fright as I wasn’t really paying attention and before I could look up from my phone she was gone again. We also ordered nachos to go and and they were made before we even got our food because I was gonna ask for something not to be on them and I was told it wasn’t possible because they were unfortunately already made… I also made a complaint to the store but I haven’t heard anything back yet because the owner is away at a golf tournament. So needless to say we won’t be going back

Im absolutely disgusted in the call I just had with a "manger". Zero regards that I was given the wrong food in my order and drove to bayroberts with it , so now I'm with good to throw out and my step son now needs to get supper picked up out here ... I was told only way they'd even consider the mistake i need to drive it back , I offered to send pictures ect ... i don't even care about the food now the management was disappointing....

My fiancée and I came here for dinner and drinks on Saturday, the food was delicious but the highlight by far was the service. Our server Trysten was very friendly, attentive and accommodating to my partner’s dietary restrictions. We hope to have her as a server again next time we come back!

This place was amazing. My very large family went there together (14 people) and our waitress was so great! she remembered every single thing every person wanted (and the place was busy!) the wait for the food wasn't too long and the music was great! I love all of the sports on the walls and tvs! I got the veggie version of the spicy peanut butter burger and it was delicious, so was the spinach salad. Everyone else also loved their meals. The price was slightly high but made up for it with the amount of food that came with each meal. I would definitely recommend going here for any occasion:)

We went to the restaurant on a two for one wings Monday. After ordering, there was a bit of a wait before we finally got our meals which were relatively tasty for the most part. Our server was friendly and courteous and there were no issues with the service that we received. All in all it was a decent evening out with friends and family. Would give 3.5 stars if possible.

October 14, 2021

Was here a week ago and did it ever change my perspective on this location. Most of the food was awful, so greasy it was really bad. We ended up taking our spinach dip home so we could actually eat it without rubber like chips. We told our waitress and all she said was “oh” completely ignoring what we said. I had to ask for ice in my water twice until she went and got it. It completely changed me & my family’s outlook on this location. We travels over an hour for horrible service and extremely greasy food that definitely wasn’t drained when it came out. I was hesitant on changing my review but after all that i needed to. We weren’t offer to have a new plate brought out or even a discount seeings, very disgusted. Wont be coming back to this location ever again.

Honestly, if youre eating in, its your standard pub grub and youre more than likely gonna have an alright time. My takeout experience however was abysmal. Ordered the food through Door Dash and were given a pickup window of 5:37-5:47. Awesome. It takes me about 15 minutes to get to the restaurant, but 15 minutes in an insulated bag isnt going to be the end of the world. However, I get a notification at 5:23 that the food is ready for pickup. Why? Now its gonna sit out for 15 minutes before I even see the food, and then another 15 minute drive home. Im annoyed, but whatever. My assumption was that because it was ordered through Door Dash, maybe the kitchen staff doesnt have the pickup window information, so they just make the food as soon as the order comes in. Ill bring it to their attention and it can be looked into so it doesnt happen to people in the future. I get to the restaurant to pick up the food, it then takes about another ten minutes for them to bring out this already cold bag of food. I mention the situation, and am told that yeah, we get the order windows, but the kitchen staff will make it early if theres nothing else to be at. Like what? You intentionally prepare the food long before the order window? Absolutely atrocious. Be better. Unsurprisingly, the food is ice cold by the time I try and eat, not to mention the order is messed up. Its not worth the time or effort to go back and complain, because this is completely normal to them apparently. Im just hoping someone will see this and I can hopefully prevent someone else from getting completely screwed over for ordering online.

I would give 0 stars but this option wasnt available. My friend and I went there for supper, we were waiting on a third person to join us. When she came in the waitress took her drink order and never came back. We waited 30 minutes and ended up leaving, we will never go back. We never had the chance to try the food though and unfortunately we wont be back to try it.

Not sure what happened here tonight. Waitress was amazing I would give five stars for her other than that food was horrible. Everything was raw and cold. Fries weren t even half cooked soggy and limp, chicken pizza edges were okay but chicken and top was not melted. Soggy and not cooked in the middle and cold, Quesadilla was so undercooked cheese was still hard and veggies were raw and cold. The wings were really good we ate the wings one piece of pizza none of the fries or quesadillas asked for a box so we could bring it home and cook it in the air fryer. Way overpriced for something we needed to bring home and cook ourselves.

I genuinely love the food at The Bigs. Im a Chicken Fingers and Fries guy, and their boneless wings fill that need in a way Ive yet to find elsewhere. The size and thickness of them with how long they are cooked for makes a perfect combination, and the fact that I can add a Hot Dog to my meal is a game changer. Their sauce choices are wide and wicked, and the menu at large has a lot of options. Great for eating in as the staff are awesome and the space is nice, nice big parking lot and easy to get to - right off the highway. Highly recommend for families and friend gatherings.

Food was good! Service was good! But Im not sure if they understand the social distance rule. The booths wrapped around the center area with tables arent separated with barriers or 6 feet apart, so it was very uncomfortable for us and the people behind us. There was two families with more then eight had to separate because they said they dont move tables together due to covid, even though theyre probably in the same house hold. Poor kids had to sit separated from their dads on fathers day!

Visited last evening and I have to say that i felt like i was an inconvenience to the establishment.

Ordered clubhouse and baked potato, clubhouse tasted like fish. My wife ordered Philly cheese steak and poutine and poutine tastes like fish, and the Philly cheese steak had more fat in it than steak meat way too much sauce in to throw off your taste buds.

I had the cauliflower bites with the lemon pepper seasoning. They would have tasted good but they were very unevenly seasoned. Some parts of a bite were absolutely covered in it while being unseasoned at all on another part. This led to huge concentrations of lemon flavor that was unbearable unless youre capable of biting into a lemon. The parts that didnt get any seasoning tasted great, however.

Nov 13th 2021. We ordered the spinach dip as a starter. It came out hot and very tasty. We then waited for over an hour for our mains, only for the waitress to tell us the kitchen lost our order and we ould get a 10% discount. I would rather to have not been offered anything. The food came out and our wings were cold and nothing was really hot. Our waitress was amazing and super nice and could only do what her manager allowed so I place no blame on her, but what restaurant makes their customers wait 90 minutes for their food and then only offer 10%? This restaurant got a 2 star review ONLY because our waitress was so great.
