This is an excellent restaurant. The food, the atmosphere and the staff are incredible. I frequent this restaurant often and am almost always served by Heather. She is extremely professional and clearly loves looking after her customers. She is one of the best bartenders / servers in the industry and the Oakville Pump is extremely fortunate to have her.

I'm always searching for a good buffalo chicken wrap and finally came across my new favourite. Everything is of excellent quality and the service was top notch. The GM here is a handsome fella and clearly cares about his work. Don't forget to add the gravy...I felt like a I was a kid again on Thanksgiving.

I love to go to different places for lunch with friends. I saw The Oakville Pump & Patio read reviews, perused the menu, great and varied selection and decided to go. Will, one of my closest friends, and I visited on September 18th, where we enjoyed excellent cuisine, an impressive selection, and a lovely patio. We both had a highly refreshing and flavorful freshly pressed cider, recommended by Heather.🧡👍🏻🫶🏻😊🍑 I chose the Caribbean Bowl: wild rice, mango salsa, fresh avocado, corn and black bean salsa, bell pepper, coleslaw, scallions, and added jerk chicken - WOW it was absolutely delicious! I loved the combination of different vegetables with the perfectly done jerk chicken. I’ve had a lot of different bowls, this one is the best. ❤️👍🏻🫶🏼 My friend ordered the Pump Club: Grilled chicken, bacon, black forest ham, cheddar cheese, lettuce, mayo on marble rye, added pickles and no tomato. He said it was equally delicious. The inside and outside is beautiful. We sat on the patio: wood, flowers, black umbrellas with comfortable black and grey tables/seating, very classy. Our waitress Heather was top notch, fun to speak with, attentive, great service. Heather is a real asset. Thanks Heather!!!!! We’ll definitely be back. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!!

I've been to Pump and Patio multiple times, and each visit has been a great experience. The food is the best — everything we've tried has been super tasty, and the prices are good. The customer service is excellent. I also love the live music and the covered terrace. Highly recommend!

Hayley, our server was so fantastic and attentive to all our needs. We had a great time hosting my mother’s 60th birthday on the the patio. In addition, Samantha was very accommodating and speedy in communicating with me when I was booking this reservation. Great experience!

Typical sports bar with incredibly horrible slow service. Sat for over 10 mins, deliberately ignored by server when we tried to flag to order. We walked out and wasted time to drive there and not get served. We left to go to another restaraunt.

Oakville Pump and Patio: A Five-Star Experience: We recently had the pleasure of dining at Oakville Pump and Patio, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism by Taylor, who provided exemplary service throughout my visit. The culinary delights served at Oakville Pump and Patio exceeded my expectations. The pasta and quesadilla dishes were prepared to perfection, bursting with flavor and freshness. The Thai chili bites were a delightful surprise, adding a spicy kick to the meal that left me craving more. To top it all off, the live music performance by Johnny Rodgers added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. His talent and energy created the perfect ambiance, elevating the dining experience to new heights. Overall, Oakville Pump and Patio surpassed all expectations with its five-star service, delectable cuisine, and vibrant atmosphere. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Kudos to Taylor, the culinary team, and Johnny Rodgers for making my visit truly unforgettable.

I enjoy going to this local pub which is less than a kilometre from my house. They have generous portions and on this occasion I shared a chicken sandwich with my friend which was more than enough. The service can be a bit slow so don’t expect to be in a rush. The variety of wines is sufficient and caters for most pallets.

Decent place for a beer, wouldnt go specifically for the food. An interesting item i wanted to mention was the famous wings $19 for 10. It is amazingly small, the size of AA battery. Edit: no it wasnt convenient, I went out of my way to get the battery and was actually a hassle.

What an amazing place! My friend and I came for a lunch and our spectacular server hannah was on point! She was the only server at the time with semi full restaurant and she always was attentive and never neglected us! We got the maple bacon brie to start and it was delicious! I would recommend maybe a plain crostini instead of garlic crostini as it clashed with the flavour of the brie. I got the birria tacos and they were to die for. Kudos to the chef. Amazing spot and will be back much more frequently! Thank you oakville pump and patio for an amazing afternoon

Great atmosphere and food good quality. I still find it quite expensive for food (drinks are reasonable) and of course thats their prerogative but its really excellent other than that. A couple of visits have had really slow service over the last few months so Im just changing the service rating to be only 3 star.

Havent been in a long time as we moved out of the neighborhood. Natasha was very good , no complaints there whatsoever. $21.00 before tax and tip for a 9 ounce middling( at best ) Chardonnay is way over the top . Sadly the fries are not even close to what they used to be , why cant restaurants figure out how to present good fries? Urinal in the mens washroom stunk of urine! These are all things in the control of the restaurant , the price of a glass of wine, the quality of the Fries and the state of the Washroom. This is how busy, popular places start to show their complacency . Sad to see , hopefully you take these comments to heart .

The experience here was great, the food was decent (typical for a pub) the service was great! And the patio is a great spot to be at! Although the tables were sticky, the menus were dirty and had food on it. I would still say it s a great spot to try! Vegetarian options: There are a few vegetarian options listed on the menu! Dietary restrictions: Allergens can be discussed prior to ordering. Parking: Large parking lot

We arent big fans of the sports bar atmosphere, but the food makes up for it. We were a bit hesitant because often a menu with the breadth of Pumps doesnt also result in high quality for individual dishes. Definitely not the case here. We each had something different across the range of their menu - a salad, fish fry, a pizza, and steak frites. Every dish was well-executed and tasty.

★★★

Nice outdoor patio, even though its in a strip mall. Above average food. Expensive drinks. Rated three stars because Im gluten-free and I ordered a gluten-free pizza and I was sick a couple of hours after leaving. Management sent me a very standard note saying oh well, well try to do better. Seems like they dont take gluten-free very seriously. When you spend $90 for lunch for two you expect better. If youre not gluten free, I highly recommend it. Dietary restrictions: Several gluten-free options, but ask a lot of questions as they made me sick in my last visit.

We LOVE our neighborhood Pump! We spend many nights watching hockey, soccer, and baseball games here. The chicken tenders are fantastic. The wings are SO GOOD. The Nashville Chicken sandwich is amazing as well. Fantastic, friendly, helpful staff. TVs everywhere for the game and a beautiful, huge patio. They even allow dogs on their patio, call ahead to arrange that, however. Great pickup & delivery options too.

A solid 3.5/5. Would go back if I had to, but would never crave it and probably never go back by choice. The appetizers were amazing: the brie and the grilled calamari. But the main entrees were so mediocre. I had the fish tacos and my husband had the steak. Friendly staff and decent atmosphere.

I hate writing reviews but yesterday was incredibly frustrating that I need to. I ve been a long time customer of the Pump & I visit at least once a week for food with my partner. However last night, was the first time I was highly disappointed with the service. We sat down on the patio last night & we sat there for almost 10 minutes without a single server to come up & greet us. I was very close to just getting up & leaving until a server came by & apologized for the wait. About 3 different servers saw us & made eye contact & never came to greet us or offer us drinks. This was so frustrating to deal with as the restaurant was NOT busy at all- maybe just a few tables on the patio and where we sat, there were about 4 tables around us. When the server came by to say hello to us, she asked if we were served yet and I said no. She was obviously very confused (as we were) as there were multiple servers on the patio & not a single one came up. This will not affect my service here but I ask that Management retrains their servers on what GOOD Customer Service looks like. A table of guests should never be made to wait more than a few minutes for a greeting. Customer Service isn t for everybody & yesterday s visit proved this. I would like to thank the kind blonde, tall woman who actually came up & helped us out. Lastly, not a complaint but a suggestion..please be make sure the string lights on the patio are on. It was pretty hard to read the menu without the extra lighting!

A bit disappointed - I had heard how great the wings were. Ordered two pounds of their famous wings. The wings were overcooked but more importantly they were literally miniature, like little nubbins. I asked the server if it was normal she said yes they re always really tiny like that but they re really fresh yea I d hope they are fresh hahaha. My buddies told me that wasn t how the wings usually look lol. Anyways shoutout to our waitress who was great and the atmosphere being great as well, just disappointed with the food.

Last night I tried this place out with my friend. I had previously inquired about live music which they have on Saturday nights. I was advised to make a reservation which I did. We were seated as soon as we got there. I ordered a Caesar that was perfect. I ordered the corned beef, carrots, potatoes, cabbage from their special St. Patrick s Day menu. It was a very big portion so we shared it The server, Anna, was great - very attentive and prompt. We didn t wait long for our meal. The band, Kim Foo Band, was a high energy band who played every genre of music (pop, disco, rock and R & B). Kim has a beautiful voice and sparkling personality. I can t wait to go back to this place. We had a great time!

The host of trivia, the awesome Professor Jeff, does a phenomenal job, and always has a great mix of questions, songs, and puzzles.

Worst chicken wings on the planet. I was in the Pub last week with my friend and ordered 2 doz wings. When they arrived, I looked at it and said to our server that they looked like pigeon legs. Honestly they were just tiny skinny bones with a little bit of meat. She responded they have a new supplier. That is the worst $30 order. I will not be visiting this pub for the garbage they serve and the overpriced drinks. There are better places to go around Oakville.. I wouldn t even give them 1 star

Gotta drop a 2-star for this one. Last time I went here, we ordered a bunch of drinks at the bar. My girl and I asked for double shots in our bourbon cocktails. When we got our second drink, my gf told me the bartender is just adding one shot and to pay attention. I watched, and he used a regular glass shotglass to pour the bourbon. It was just one shot. Not a big deal, maybe he just forgot. 4 drinks in, we get the bill and the bartender said they dont have a option for double shots in their billing software and Ill have to pay for an extra shot for each drink. I will see it on the receipt as a drink+shot for each drink. My girl and I got 8 in total (4 each). I pointed out he was using just 1 shot for the drinks and he looked pissed, came back with a jigger and said he was using the larger part for my drinks which equals 2 shots (he was using a regular shot glass when we saw him mixing. I was a bartender, so Im familiar.) We didnt want to argue so I paid for the extra 8 shots. I used to come here a lot, but turned off now.

The food wasnt great. It used to be a better place a long time ago when it was niblick. Least they kept the nachos the same. Burger was dry, wings were very small. Its beyond me as to why you would have live music at 7pm, especially when the band is using electric guitars, perhaps acoustic would be better. Was to loud to hold a conversation. Our server could not even hear my order and because of that, I was given the wrong side. I dont blame the server at all. She did her best. Ive been in the industry for 20 years and the only time I couldnt hear the server was when ivwas in a bar or club at 10 pm or 11 pm, not 7pm.

I wanted to come here to specifically give a shout out to our wonderful waitress tonight named Ali. She was amazing overall as a server, very kind and knowledgeable but extra considerate of my young son with food allergies. We usually bring food along for him because of how severe his allergies are but she provided him with a safe treat and let me review ingredients beforehand. He was so happy to be included even if it was just a small treat. Thank you, Ali! Dietary restrictions: Didn t order main food for our son with food allergies as a personal comfort choice but he was able to eat the safe food we brought for him without question and was provided a safe dessert (ingredient list provided). Kid-friendliness: Super comfortable setting children. Drawing, spill proof cups, good menu options for them.

I absolutely love this place! The heated patio creates a cozy atmosphere, perfect for chilly days. Theyre also dog-friendly, which is a huge plus. The food is consistently excellent, showcasing high-quality ingredients. A delightful spot for both humans and their furry friends! The attentive and friendly staff truly enhance the dining experience.

I rarely leave reviews, but was compelled to leave one as a result of my familys meal this evening. First, regarding service - took 20 minutes to receive the bar drinks we ordered (4 draft beers, 1 cocktail). The restaurant was half empty - why did it take so long? When I looked towards the bar, I noticed the servers tended to prefer chatting amongst themselves instead of serving customers. Priorities seem misaligned. Second, regarding food quality. Four members of our party ordered a burger. All four were burnt, dry, bland, and tasteless. Cant believe the chef/server didnt notice this before bringing it out to us. Fries and appetizer were ok, hence the 2/5 stars. I dont understand why this place has such positive reviews. We were excited to try but sorely disappointed by our experience. I would suggest dining elsewhere.

We came here tonight to celebrate my wifes birthday with the family. A very kind,clean and friendly environment. The food was freshly cooked and this is why we maybe had to wait a little. But hey, good food takes time to prepare. If you want fast food, we all know where to find it... Bravo to the chefs! The service: everyone was very polite and hospitable. Especially our server:Kenzie! We were looked after, which was very important. Especially due to the occasion of my wifes birthday. Kenzie is a true gem who knows what customer service is all about! Kenzie was literally everywhere making sure customers would be happy & smiling! This young lady has a bright future in business! My professional advice to managment: Do not lose her! Well be coming again soon with family from the UK, as we were very impressed with the high standards! BRAVO to everyone!!!

Its been a while since Ive been so put off by the food Ive been served by a restaurant/pub/fast food joint/literally anywhere ever that Ive felt compelled to leave a review about it, but... I ordered a smashed guac starter and fried chicken sandwich -- the sandwich wasnt terrible. It was just fine. They did manage the impressive feat of somehow keeping the bun from getting soggy on a delivery order, and the chicken was a good portion and seemed fresh, but seemed as though they went for the cheapest possible frozen stick fries and some canned gravy for the side. Fine for pub food, but not for pub food at this price point -- this place is WAY too expensive for the quality you get. But the starter. Wow, was it ever awful -- should be a law against calling what I was given guacamole. It had a really weird oozing wet consistency, and I could see little puddles of liquid -- since this was a takeout order and I couldnt exactly send it back to the kitchen, I gave it a go, and it was sour to the point I was concerned it had actually gone off -- not that far off from just directly sucking on a lemon. Had to abandon it because it was just inedible. Came back to it the next day, and disturbingly, it looked almost the same except for a small amount of browning oxidization and more of the liquid had separated out. The picture included is from sitting out 19 hours later... I might just do a reproduction of the infamous time lapse McDonalds hamburger photos with this stuff. This cost me $15 dollars. Since Im not ill the next day, I think what actually happened is this is not even close to made fresh -- instead, theyve loaded it up with some sort of citrus additive (and possibly even oil? Im a bit at a loss to explain the bizarre texture of this stuff otherwise) to keep it from browning. I wouldnt eat here again, but if you must, skip the guac -- you can get a tub of grocery store guac for half the price, and itll at least be the right creamy texture and youd actually be able to taste the avocado.

We arrived to the hostess and waitresses being overwhelmed, so we sat at the bar while we waited. Turned out it was the place to be! Bartenders, Ninja and Mike were absolutely amazing, the nachos were great (and I rate pubs but their nachos) and the atmosphere dark, clean, warm and friendly. If it wasnt for the bar tenders it would if been a 4 star for service but they delivered. Say hello to our local watering hole!!

Above and beyond in my eyes. On top of that I had the Sunday roast beef dinner special and it was amazing better than the keg. I ll be back! I ll be asking for Maya again.

I can not RAVE enough about this place. The service is amazing, it doesn t matter which server is assigned to your table you will receive the most amazing service. The kitchen is the top notch. Simple things like an Alfredo pasta, are 5 star and keep you wanting more. If you are in Oakville or are seeking a 5 star experience a Pump and Patio is the place. Vegetarian options: very accommodating

The food and service is absolutely amazing every single time. Warning: the bees are out and about They do have burnt coffee on the tables to try and deter them. However, it didn t help much when I was there for lunch. I actually lost my appetite because the bees were literally biting my food and flying away. I didn t want to do take away because I didn t feel comfortable knowing the bees were in my food.

Went to this pub thinking the menu looked great lots of options. Well not so many options on sunday at noon. Ordered steak and eggs Medium rare Steak was cooked lile a donkey and tough, eggs were hard. So we asked for another steak it was just as gross so sent it back. Got wings as replacement. Also had a tuna poke bowl. Rice was chewy, lots of bees outside that pushed us to have to eat inside. Waitress took off the steak and eggs dish from bill and complimented us $5. Will not return, worst food ever

They also have a great selection of beers, including some from local breweries in Hamilton and Toronto. We went for the live band on Saturday night. It was packed.

Always a good time at Oakville pump and Patio. The food menu is extensive compared to other places with bar food. They have some good craft beers on the menu and interesting cocktails too. I had an IPA and my friend had a Spiced rum and raspberry cocktail , both were perfect. The seating area both inside and on the patio is big enough and tables not too close together.

We had a fantastic experience celebrating our daughters 18th birthday at The Oakville Pump. They went above and beyond to make her feel extra special. The live music was absolutely incredible, just breathtaking, the best Ive heard in a while. The food was delicious and the portions were generous, giving us plenty of leftovers to take home. The service was outstanding . Thank you for making our daughter feel like a princess. We will definitely be back many, many more times. Parking: No issue with parking at all.

The Oakville Pump & Patio is a great place to dine with many friends. I once had a party of 10 and got seated near the fireplace that adds a nice touch to the look. The waiters were also nice and quick despite our large party size. The food was also great, however, the portion sizes are a little small for the prices that they charge. However, the food was still delightful. Their smash burger and spinach dip appetizer was delightful and I personally enjoyed it. Overall, a nice place to gather with friends and have a nice meal.
