149 St Paul St, St. Catharines, ON L2R 3M5, Canada
Global pub grub, craft beer on tap & late-night specials in an upbeat space with sports on TV.
Fiddler's Pour House has catered our Christmas Lunch on our farm for the last few years. Dave and Chef Sierra are both wonderful to work with, the food is always excellent, and they make everything incredibly easy. We appreciate them both, as well as their fantastic team. Would highly recommend!
Cozy with great sound. Prices are better than most places. Paid parking two doors over. Karaoke on Wednesday was a blast. Great time.
Always has been a great place and the server was good. But. We started as 2 then moved because it gradually evolved into a party of 8. Even still that it was absolutely dead in the place, we were all tagged with a mandatory 20% tip on the bill. I am a server and bartender. So were most of us. Also most of us would have probably tipped 30% but we were all a little put off by the decision. Fries are awesome. But if you only want to tip 15% or was planning on giving more? I would suggest sitting at tables of 4 or less separately
The staff is great and the food exceptional. Best fries in town and I love that everything is made in house. We have never been disappointed. There are so many TVs, you will never miss a game.
Fantastic with great prices. Delicious food, and some serious specials 75 cent wings. $6 margaritas. $4 shots and excellent fun servers. The bartender Mo is top shelf
Great pub food. Homemade mozza sticks were amazing and the burger/fries were delicious. I would eat here again!
Great atmosphere. Great staff! Definitely seems to be one of the more visited spots downtown. But the food was really good bar food! The chicken and waffles are bomb! Price point is golden. This place all around a great spot to check out. Recommend trying it out
Great place to hang out. Come here to catch the game or just chill with your friends. Great food and friendly staff. Weekend night can become a nightclub scene. Great prices for alcoholic beverages and food. Easily accessible restaurant and washrooms. Paid street, lot and garage parking nearby. Can be hard to find parking. Bus stop close by. No kids menu seen. No credit card surcharge. Washrooms are a mess on weekends when it gets busy. Ask about their points card.
Staff top notch. Good food happy atmo
Trivia and burgers best Tuesdays downtown!
Love the atmosphere and people are always great
All good! Go there often.
Excellent , great service
Awesome staff! And great atmosphere in my opinion!
One of the best pubs in the Niagara region. Very friendly staff... awesome ambience.
Pulled pork sandwich. All I need.
Best place for a weekend night! Must try - onion rings
We came here for the free cheeseburger from the River Lions. Ordered onion rings as well. Absolutely delicious Loved the food! Would recommend Food : 5/5
Great service!
The burger and fries are delicious. Love it .
If you want to get drunk for cheap then this would be the place. Food is actually pretty decent. On the weekends after like 10pm they play some pretty terrible music at full volume. Bartenders are always nice.
Service is really good staff is very friendly we go there often their pork belly is amazing a must try
Learn how to entertain people.
Great place for food and drinks
The $5 Burger Tuesdays and Trivia Night is where it s at
Just witnessed a male bouncer at this bar push a girl outside. Immediately our group got up and left. Terrible.
Great wings
Good was great. Our waitress was very friendly. Will definitely be back.
My friend nearly got killed at this establishment , thread carefully here very very very dangerous place . More security needed to protect patrons Vegetarian options: It was a beating of my friend almost killed him , me security need to be put in place to protect patrons
Food was good, atmosphere was good. Overall vibe of the place was solid. The value in my opinion was average but hey its a bar, you dont really go to one to save a buck. Poutine was massive though Id recommend and go back again if you are looking for a pub to meet up with friends.
From friendly staff to amazing well priced food, the Pour House is a must when in the St Catherine s area. We will definitely be back
Amazing staff and food! Even with a have large group!!
it is what it is
Awful staff
Have been attending this pub for quite a while now, however with the rise of popularity the service has grown quite the ego. The first instances was nothing more than bad service but over time it has grown into quite the toxic and hostile environment for international students. Have been hearing a lot of spiking incidents recently as well.
Has a million cameras inside on the roof, meanwhile the bouncers and the service has been repeatedly shown racist attacks on multiple individuls on several occasions. The bouncer services in St.Catherines needs to be re-evaluated for diversity and public service as clearly this is a recurring problem and common talk among many students and working people to avoid downfall of this business institute.
Have been sitting in the bar with a friend, went out for a smoke and we were not allowed back in by staff, they said we had to pay, sent us to a long line, to my phrase we have been sitting here for a long time, our stuff is inside, like, coats etc., he replied I dont care, as a result we stood in line for a very long time, we got cold, we definitely will not go there again.
Went in the other night and was served by Brock, felt like I made a friend for life! Food was good, laughs were even better, can t wait to go back!
Went here with a large group on Saturday before a concert. Sat at a table with my wife for over an hour and we didn t have anyone come to serve our table at all. I had to walk to the bar 2x to order 2 rounds of drinks. We ended up leaving and having dinner elsewhere.
Great service as usual
5$ burger is really good on Tuesdays!
Tuesday trivia night and a 5 dollar burger special Wow! Very good. I would definately go back again. Food
Jamie has fantastic! A fast and charismatic server, myself and my friends could have not said enough kind things after leaving about his customer service. the food was great as well!
Our server Mo, was outstanding!
Unreal cauliflower bites and poutine!
Really good food and atmosphere.
Great quick service, cold beer, good atmosphere!
We used to go to Fiddlers Pour House all the time when I worked downtown but hadnt been there since 2016. We went again recently three times in the past month and the food has been amazing and delicious all three times. We try something new each time and each time it is delicious and worth heading downtown for.
We came here on a Sunday for lunch after finding that the vegan restaurant we were supposed to go to was unexpectedly closed. We were actually so happy that we are here instead!! Delicious vegan options, all the food was hot, fresh and beautifully prepared. The server/bartender was lovely and super attentive which created a chill and welcoming vibe. We will be back!!
We went there last night as a group of four. Great service from MO. Very attentive and funny. Food was good beer was cold and we had a good time.
Good Service, Great Food
Great bartender. Great tasting Pabst. Cant wait to go again.
Friendly place to visit!
Nice atmosphere
Myself and many others have been going her for over a decade. This place is great! Good food, good atmosphere, good prices and all around good times with good people.
Food was great really enjoyed the time there with my son then we went to Meridian center to see Harlem Globetrotters
Great atmosphere and super conscious staff. A fun, safe and inviting place for university students.
Been a couple times for drinks and grub. A wide selection of tapped beers and a few options for wine. Foods is pub fare, but it hits the spot. The service staff have been attentive and friendly. It s a good spot to hand and watch a game, and with the roll-up windows would be a decent atmosphere is the summer.
My wife and I visited on the 22nd of April for an event. Though EXTREMELY busy, the staff, remained calm and amazingly friendly. It probably took a bit longer, because the quality of the food was never compromised and exceeded expectations. Thanks to Melanie and our Leaf server for making it a fun experience, and for keeping our take-out, til after the show. Definitely a MUST TRY!!
Service was poor. Its a small place with a smaller menu for events, which is fine. We waited over an hour for our food & still never received it. People came in after us & got served before us!! I questioned the server earlier incase he forgot & was told everything was good...NOT. we had to leave for the concert & all we got was Im sorry WOULD NEVER GO BACK!!!
Nice place. Tasty apps and wings. Very friendly staff.
Great place. Just small so when its busy youre pushing your way through people.
Great place to hangout with friends
After 45 minutes of not being served, we finally got asked for our drinks/food and was not brought any food. Sadly we were forgotten. Its a shame as i heard good things about the food, i just wish i had the opportunity to try any.
First time here, will be back again. Excellent service, wasnt busy due to the time we were in. Vegetarian options: The Beyond Meat Burger wasnt available, so he went with the nachos. Served checked to ask if he was actual vegan or vegetarian. My mentioned the sauce wasnt vegan friendly and suggested the salsa on the side instead.
Good food and service! Canadians are so nice! They open really late too! This is our first time, good find!
Great food and drinks. I will definitely be back again.
Had lunch here, very well priced, good food and quick service
Some videos from tonight
Didnt rate the food because we just drank here. It was a Sunday night so not much going on but the bartender (Shannon) was not only really cool but she stayed on top of pretty much serving the place (about ten people) singlehandedly. She mentioned that theres typically a decent size crowd on Fri/Sat nights Cool vibe in the bar itself and had a pretty cool range of music going.
Staff could definitely use a 101 on how to be more respectful.
Great good and serves
Omg this place was amazing .Was our first time here..Everything was over and beyond amazing ..Omg the food out of this world. Koodos to the Cook..And our Server ..Jamie was amazing so polite he went over and beyond was so wonderful to see such Great Service..I would definitely be back. Thank you Food
Love Fiddlers, definitely a downtown staple. They have INCREDIBLE vegan options.
The beer was flat and tasted funky, but overall still decent. Ive had better experiences there in the past.
There s a bartender named Courtney there who is an absolute sweetheart!!!
Brock is the man! I was in Wellend for my Birthday. And this place was made great by Brock! And pickle shots! Service : 5/5 |
Made me pay to get in 5 minutes after my friends got in.
Fidds is a great place to go day or night! The food is Excellent here, Never had a bad meal and they have a unique menu variety to choose from. Salads are so good! Week nights are chill with sports on and a great atmosphere for hanging and catching up with friends!! Or go on the weekends and dance all night with the best D.js in town! Cheapest double drinks around and the Best bartenders, Security and D.js. Go check it out
Dont like
For dancing, at one point there was good music but then they changed it and the atmosphere got a little strange. Good for a while
Great Bar to go before Ice Dogs Game Great Atmosphere and fast friendly service
Very young crowd with upbeat atmosphere. Did not eat. Really enjoyed atmosphere and people. Great location but parking is challenging.
I went out for dinner and a few drinks with a friend from work. We had a good meal and the price was more than fair. The service was excellent more than one server went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of and they still managed to do it in an unobtrusive manner.
Shout out Brock & Chelsea for the 5star service, well be back!!!
Nice little bar. Good service.
The food at the Fiddlers is always delicious. We have never had anything that we did not enjoy. The servers are always very cheerful and make sure we are always looked after.
So many good memories. must visit
Its a great space for drinks and snacks but the food doesnt feel like anything to get excited about. The nachos are very standard but the drink selection is very large and the staff know what theyre talking about.
Kids went absolutely insane for the chicken fingers and the fried chicken sandwich! Amazing staff and great for before the ice dogs game!
Service was abysmal and they were pretty empty with lots of servers just standing around talking to each other. Definitely will not be back
Great food, great service, great aesthetics
Very nice staff & the food was delicious!
Great atmosphere and good food
Great food...good beverage selection. Go in and say Hi to Melanie
Great little pub! Wait staff was outstanding and food was really good. Nice selection of food. Could of had more local beers on tap
Shannon is amazing ! Totally made our visit with fast and professional service !
Average little pub with decent food. Washrooms definitely need to be redone or at least cleaned.
Good prices good vibes
Great atmosphere excellent food fantastic staff, kitchen open late
Jaime is the best!! Peach berry!
Awesome staff!
My cousin owns this wonderful lovely establishment. The atmosphere is truly most pleasant, with a very reasonable priced menu. Parking is a few doors away. I recommend having friends, family, even friends of family or set up a business meeting unless you prefer to drink alone. Theres room for all walks of life!!
Unexpectedly great food. Everything is always excellently prepared. Friendly staff. Owner can be a bit much to take sometimes
Wow. Absolutely amazing hamburger. Was very tasty
the manager was very unprofessional i got 3 separate bills and the last one was $4 so i didn t end up tipping, on my way out she decided to say to me and my friends thanks for the tip as a bartender i was very offended. i decided to go back again and she told her staff not to serve me til last, i stood there for 30 minutes and did not get served so i ended up leaving.
Great menu with something for everyone to enjoy! Staff are ways great and accomodating! The fried chicken sandwich is to die for!
Fun vibe and cool atmosphere - bartenders are knowledgeable and fun. Recommend for drinks and snacks.
Classic Poutine was classy
A friend and I came to eat here after watching a show at the Meridian (July 2/22). The place was packed and the staff were running around doing several things and made it appear effortless. They seemed like a good working team. Overall great service, friendly staff and good food!
Very unsanitary establishment and unfriendly staff. Good for a cheap spot to pre drink, but even then I d stay far away from this rathole. God knows what the food is like. Run.
Nachos are fit for a king. The fish and chips most likely the very best downtown.
Great food great service
Great burger. Fantastic fries. Delicious gravy.
Vodka soda = vodka water apparently
The food was delicious and the servers were great!
AMAZING on all counts Great staff Great service Great food - I had the fried chicken sando. I could eat that every day for the rest of my life and be able to die happy LOL Great drinks- I had the anywhere but here if you like tropical tasting drinks - this is an excellent choice Clean, super rad vibes Loved it so much and cant wait to go back!
Noisy and full of teenagers. Im way beyond that.
Food was excellent and beer cold, a bit on the pricey side but worth it. Being downtown, parking limited
This place is dope
Pay $10 to get in Sasquatch at the door told me to pay 10 more dollars to get back in when I went for a smoke
Great staff! In the heart of downtown. I pop in for a bite and a pint now and then.
Excellent service. Great food. Fun time!!
We decided to go here for supper because it is close to the Meridian Center..WOW! I cannot wait to go back. The staff were incredibly friendly and the food was delicious. They have an awesome menu to choose from.
Good vibes
Very much a bar. Service was good and we were happy with our meals. The bacon wrapped jalapeños were very good. I would have given 5 stars if the place was cleaner
Amazing little Bar/Club. Atmospheric and very energetic. Music choices are mostly good. Drinks are somewhat fair priced. Bartenders on the other hand, only one friendly bartender, and its the man; the girl bartenders will rip u off if u keep ur guard down.
The staff is very rude. We asked on the phone if we can arrive late, but after arriving they didn t serve and asked us to leave and even pushed girls out. The security guard was really disrespectful and racist
Racist store, discriminatory staff. Security guard should be fired. He picked up hands on one my brother. Really disrespectful. Staff is worse. No manners at all. All in all, bar should be closed with this type of behaviour. Strict actions should be imposed on security guard. Otherwise he will treat same with everyone. WORST BAR IN WHOLE CANADA. Disgusting!
The staff is very disrespectful and racist to people. Not a good service and even refused to serve even after asking before arrival
The security guard was rude to us and ask us to leave even when we asked on call before arriving . Even tried to to push some guys and humiliated one of the guy.
The staff are amazing, the owner has short man complex
Great staff, cold drinks and friendly atmosphere
My girl paid 20$ for the jukebox just for them not to play any of her songs. Crowd is mostly underage youth or people in their 30s who are too old to be there. Drinks are decent and good prices. Pool is cheap!
Great food, service, and prices!
Cozy, clean pub with a great tap selection. Service was good. Fish and chips for lunch were decent. Typical pub menu, reasonably priced. Will return.
best place in St. Catharines hands down. miss it so much :(
Great save by the manager to make up for a bad experience... I ordered dinner from Fiddlers Pour House last night and from the photo on the website my daughter picked the chicken fingers. My order of nachos was fine, my friends fish & chips were great, but the chicken fingers were unappetizing & inedible. Last summer we had a great experience, so this was a disappointment. I emailed the manager who refunded my whole bill as a gesture of goodwill. Thats good business & deserves another try!
worst burned food ever. if i even saw this i would not have paid!! my chicken fingers are literally black
always the sweetest staff w great service & the apple smoked mozza sticks are to DIE for.
My best friends and I went to Fiddler s this past Wednesday and were pleasantly surprised by the amazing food, great atmosphere and excellent staff! In particular, our waitress Sarah was kind, friendly and made our dining experience a 10/10! Lots of delicious vegan options and great drink specials. Would definitely recommend!
Prices are great! Food is delicous and the portions are quite large! Had a few drinks and shared nachos and wings. Atmosphere is a great vibe. The service is really great and they are all so lovely and outgoing there!
Food and service is always awesome
This restaurant was a great finale for our trip. Great quality and delicious food. Excellent and kind service. Special thanks to our waiter, Jason. He was awesome!
Came here a couple months ago ordered two pints of cold frosty Molson Canadian, found the environment is very dirty and some of the people at the bar were overserved and wearing pyjamas.... The head bartender, some tall guy who I think it was also doubling as dish pig washing pots was speaking very loudly and he was dropping excessive amounts of expletives. Acting a little too cool for school with his white Nike shoes and puma track suit we settled out bill and left for Rombys, dont think were ever coming back to this rats nest.
Ryan the manager was an absolute gem! Knew the moment we were thirsty and arrived on point with each drink never a mistake! Thank you, well be back
Nice clean place , Sarah the Bartender was really nice . Drinks are cheap
Sarah our Server was amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and fun. Great place to visit.
Food was great. Drinks were cool. Staff was extra nice.
Good atmosphere but tried different beer non of them Wer good .
vegan snacks
Great
Decent place to party and have a quick drink but I wouldnt want to spend my whole night here. ~Didnt see too much, went right to the back- Getting there at midnight; They didnt have a drink menu, food and drinks take a decent wait but nice staff, chilly open patio but good for the fact that you can walk out and have a smoke if you want anytime. Theyre pretty relaxed with the covid rules if youre on the patio. Mixed scene of young and middle aged people, rowdy-ish crowd. Decent place overall.
Great place for a pint... Or two
The servers and security guys were really nice! Drinks were good and they let our DD drink for free (pop) which was really sweet! Cant wait to go back!
They need to hire someone more hours to clean their bathrooms mirrors..and sinks.. Also to clean their dining tables & chairs and please ...wipe down the filthy bottles of hand sanitizers that are on all of the tables!! My hands were cleaner before I touched their bottles of sanitizers or sink faucets!!!
Went after an Icedogs game, although it was busy we got a table quickly, food is great love all the new choices
Good service. GREAT Food
Great environment, good music, good food.
Awesome staff
Great bartenders, best jalapeño poppers Ive ever had!
Great food and service.
Love this place but the service can be very slow even when they arent busy
We had an amazing server Friday 6-7 pm. Food was good.Only complaint is that the music is way too loud. I couldnt hear anything or talk.
Decent people and respectful tenders
Was a great evening !!
Best place for a pint in town. Best jalapeños poppers ever. Bacon wrapped and delicious.
Best spot in dt st.kitts. solid bar staff bomb food great place
Fiddlers always has a great DJ and is a fun spot for a night of dancing but pre drink before coming here, youll never get a buzz going with how slow the service is.
