We frequent this restaurant as the food is always good (only had one or two times where something wasn’t loved but that is to no fault of the restaurant, just personal preferences of husband or I). Food is fresh and always something new and interesting, and pricing is completely reasonable for what you get, especially in this economy and in comparison to some of the other places/chains in town. Will continue to be repeat customers!

I have lived in Orangeville for 8 years and have never heard of this place and decided to give it a try. The food was ok, very expensive for the quality. I ordered steak with mash potatoes and veggies. It cost $45 plus. It definitely was not worth that price. Our server was very nice, a very hard worked. I gave this place a try. But I will not be retuning.

What a pleasant surprise this was! A pub, but with such a kitchen! The food was delicious: I had Bourbon Salmon on rice with Asian veg. Dessert was the best crème brûlée I have ever had (not kidding), but it was the decaf coffee served in a French press that almost made me swoon with pleasure. That is so gloriously extra. I tip my hat the cooks; they know what they’re doing! Patio was miraculously wasp free and good dogs only 😊 The service was friendly and attentive. I’ll be back as soon as I can!

Great place to get a unique halloumi pulled pork grilled cheese, chicken sandwich, or seafood pasta. The duck fat fries was very good with the campfire mayo. Their drinks aren't boozy but quite delicious. (Pineapple breeze)

1st time in Orangeville and just picked this restaurant off of google. Couldn’t be more happy! Food was amazing. Great service and atmosphere. Too bad we live 3.5 hours away as this would definitely be our go to. If you’re near, definitely give this place a try.

Dropped in for some patio drinks. Excellent service and good drinks. Killer Cesar and loved the ‘no boats on Sundays’ peach cider. We’ve eaten here in the past and also really enjoyed the food. South side of the patio is near an area that’s under construction, would recommend the northern side of the patio.

Vegan chilli was delicious, and the server was friendly. Would love to come back often if they have other mains that can be made vegan. The vegan chicken fingers were a tad too heavy on the sauce, however I really appreciate that they have this on the menu. Good ambiance.

This restaurant exceeded our expectations. The food, customer service and atmosphere was incredible. Their menu has a unique twist to their foods which made the dining experience fun and adventurous. There is a lot of love and creativity that goes into each dish. We were also pleasantly surprised at the price. This is definitely a restaurant we will be visiting more often.

We tried this because of the google reviews .. and it was a costly, tasteless experience. Food was cool, steak sandwich was full of grizzle, we added mushrooms ($4) and got peppers and no mushrooms. Fries were stone cold. Upgraded 2 sides to sweet potatoe fries and garden salad. These portions were less than half the size the of the cold fries. We were seated less than one hour and we re told there is a reservation and asked to finish up. We were NOT previously advised of a time limit. AND the washrooms are NOT accessible massive flight of stairs not good for elderly with a cane.

I think about their onion rings often (you ll never be able to enjoy another onion ring after you try theirs). The food is so yummy and comforting you can never go wrong here. I recommend it to everyone, and I always love supporting a local business!

The atmosphere was great, the food was alright (bland, no flavour), and the service was absolutely terrible.

Where to start? Well first off. Generally a tip is something earned. Instead here they add it to your bill. Very odd. A sign of a bad business. However that does explain why the waitress looked and acted miserable, I guess she doesnt have to be warm and kind anyways because they charge you for a tip. So why bother... She gave us the bill then said oh heres the real bill and it was extra on top of it. So why would they give us 2 bills with 2 different prices?! But before all that was the food. Very bland, on top of that the steak sandwich which was just bits of leftover meat in a bun. Not an actual steak sandwich was small and bland. Normally anywhere else it comes with mushrooms. However what you wont know is here they charge you $4 for what works out to be 1 mushroom! $4! Thats nuts and they didnt even tell us prior. But wait theres more! you want Ketchup for your fries and a sauce. (Which is in the description of what comes with it) They charge $2 more for condiments Which is absolutely ridiculous. I suggested a beer taster to my friend while here and the waitress rolled her eyes and said you dont want that Long story short we rate this our worse restaurant experience of the year. Save your hard earned money, and go elsewhere. - Bad staff, not trained well - No sense of a Manager. - Bland food thats overpriced - Extra charges - Expensive - Misleading menu and waitress - Forced tips (a sign of a business starting to fail) To the owner: It takes years to get good customers it takes minutes to lose them, people vote with their feet. We wont be back. UPDATE: to owners response, take the criticism and improve. Your basically telling the customer the experience they had. When its not the case. -Normally a manager would still come and check the table that was not the case.(especially a large group) -We Still expressed our concerns with the front desk the young man did nothing. Did you even know that? We did that so it was private and to not ruin anyone elses night but then you went to my friend. Which is not professional. -tips are earned you cant expect bad service to just automatically get a tip. -Normally an issue would be solved instead of even leading to this point. As for other reviews, Dont compare someone elses experience with ours.

Great selection of drinks and Beef short ribs were amazing! Service was very friendly and accommodating for a family dining with a 3 year old. Its a shame the patio views got covered with a large development that went up right next to the patio bannisters. But understandably, not much can be done about shoddy city planning. We will still keep coming back for the service and food.

The prices are outrageous for the mediocre food that is served. All very bland. Fries were very over cooked to the point some were hard to chew. They were all small pieces on everyones plate. Not one full length fry. Its like what you would get at the bottom of a chip bag. Fry crumbs. Had to add large amount of salt and pepper to the gravy just for it to has some kind of flavor. And FOUR DOLLARS for 1 sliced up mushroom added to the burger?! FOUR?! This place is laughable. Will not be returning to this scam restaurant. Go elsewhere for much better food that isnt overpriced garbage.

There is no denying the food is good and it s a really neat place aesthetically. HOWEVER, we have been there a handful of times and the service was not great. Even though we tried coming at quieter times (when the place was half full or less), the wait time for the food always seems to be exceedingly long. The time before our final visit our server was quite standoffish, but we decided to give the place another chance because people can have off days (and most of the servers are actually quite lovely). We had the same server again this and she was just as unpleasant. It s really a shame because we quite liked those duck fat fries, but it s honestly not worth it :(

Its noisy with poor acoustics but the service and food is good to great. Duck fat fries may not be gourmet worthy but there are damn good. The menu is diverse and interesting. Service is very good. On a less enthusiastic note, 1/ If there is music in the basement lounge, the bass can be very annoying if your table is upstairs above that area. 2/ You may be subjected to very loud table of baseball caps, which is confusing because there were no hotdogs, and it isnt sunny inside.

Barley rail is an exceptional experience with a tantalizing menu. Firstly I would like to praise the welcoming wait staff. I have visited the venue twice and both times there is nothing to complain about. Salads were dressed generously. Onion rings seasoned tastefully. Spare rib cooked tenderly. Even the vegan chili surprised me. If you are at the venue on a late evening the downstairs opens up to a different experience for which I have yet to partake. From what I can see is there is a different menu with cocktails done by a bar chef. I spent roughly $130 for dinner between my wife and I on 2 course with alcohol.

It was good, my spouse and I went for my birthday last night and they are very welcoming, food was excellent (I had pasta alla vodka, spouse had the salmon special they were offering last night, March 22 2024) and she was happy with her meal as well. The reason for 4* on food would be the portion amount for the salad - I feel it could have been a bit larger, or just more of everything it had. Asides this, 5* all around. Amazing service, thank you for the meal :) Kid-friendliness: Our 9 month old son came with us, and they were very welcoming even when he was being a little bit loud. Got a cool pair of glasses

Garlic bread was good! Pasta was ok, slightly overcooked, but flavour well! Fries were burnt, couldnt even taste the dill or whatever the seasoning was supposed to be. Salad had way too much dressing it was difficult to eat, and we ended up wasting it! (Salad is my favorite thing to eat, it was sad because the salad sounded promising and so good!) The drink was good! The server was nice, and the atmosphere was nice! At least our bellies were full when we left. Always thankful!

Went for lunch with a group. We each had something different. Each person loved what they ate, and meal sizes were huge! I had fish and chips and it was so good! I read below someone else said the fish and chips was not great but the slaw was good. I would say the opposite, the slaw wasnt my fave but the fish and chips is comparable to heritage fish and chips and was really good. It is hard to find good fish and chips. I guess it all depends on what you like/dont like but overall, our entire group had good things to say about each meal!

There are very few establishments in Ontario that can produce the quality of food and authentic experience like this tour-de-force nestled in the heart of Orangeville. Thrilled to discover a magical combination of prohibition-era James Cagney goodness mixed with a film noir backdrop in a speakeasy forged out of pure golden era imagination. Angela and Mark have done something exquisite here and it needs to be seen to be appreciated. Thoroughly impressed and highly recommended as the place youd want to spend a Friday night savouring the musical vibes and watching the minstrels in the gallery; Barley Vine is a true revelation for the uninitiated and a glorious validation to those who are fortunate enough to call themselves regulars. Bravo!

I was given an option of about 4 or 5 different cheeses to put on it and went with what the waitress suggested - blue cheese! Everyone else was super happy with their meal as well. We had our 70 lb dog with us, and they were more than happy to bring out some cold water for him - he even got some cuddles from the staff! Needless to say, we cant wait to go back!!

Good but not great. The 3 of us were greeted in a friendly manner, but we were quickly told inside seating was the only option. We were seated in a nice windowed table area, but next to a large party with kids running all around and under theirs. The fish & chips was ok, but the gluten penne pasta was too aldente (read hard & chewy), oh and I got 3 or maybe 4 pieces of breaded calamari that were overpriced for my appetizer. Dessert (no dairy free option). Btw, if you get nauseous with the heavy bass from a loud band, beware because youll be treated to that experience no charge when they start playing downstairs.

Always a great place to go in Orangeville! Excellent food, ambiance and service. A favorite of ours! Food

December 21, 2023

Came with a group of friends hoping to be able to grab a bite and some wine a about 5-10 minutes after 8pm today only to find the open sign turned off and no sign of activity inside. I can understand emergencies happening but ghosting without even a heads up or an explanation posted is extremely unprofessional and speaks volumes about this establishment. Ultimately, it is their loss because they missed out on business (group of 10) and gaining a loyal customer. 10/10 would not recommend. Edit: since I normally don t take precious time out of my day and I have no clue how to respond to an owner s reply, I will simply say: Take ownership and accountability instead of insinuating Im a liar. First impression was made and I dont come back from those. There is no need for me to personally email you. It was my first time there. Didn t realize I was supposed to make a scene and be doing the most to confirm a place is open. If you know you have an issue with the sign, fix it. That s is all.

Lunch time, patio. The server, Jade was nice and the $14 burger & fries were fine. But beware of undisclosed inflated charges: A slice of cheese for your burger (an additional $2!) and a strip of bacon (an additional $3!). Coffee was $4.25! served in a small French press and refills cost an additional $4.25 (unless you were willing to accept just more hot water). All taxed of course. What could have been lunch for <$25 ballooned as a result to $33 + tip. Hmm. I left feeling a bit hosed.

I went for a poutine take-out because I read an old review here but they dont sell poutine anymore! soooo I got my own cheese curds and came back to try the famous duck fries. I was expecting to have enough money for a reasonable tip cause the menu (possibly just the online menu?) said the fries were 6$ but they were 8$. I apologized to the waitress. When I got my fries and gravy it was literally a tablespoon or less of gravy for 2$. The waitress ran away quickly so I couldnt say anything but I wasnt about to ask for spit-gravy anyways. I was heartbroken that I would not be able to make a proper poutine for 11.50 (+2.50 for my cheese). Luckily the fries are soooo good, perfectly herby and salty and it all had enough heat and moisture for it to all stick together and melt in my mouth. I look forward to giving it another chance someday though. ~60calories/$ (not great)

Had an amazing tasty lunch here today! Sophia made our lunch extra special. She was kind and extremely helpful and takes her job very seriously and does an excellent job! We loved the burger and the chicken wrap and the duck fries were out of this world! You need to go and have lunch at this wonderful establishment and ask for her to be your server. Enjoy!
