224 Glenridge Ave, St. Catharines, ON L2T 3J9, Canada
First wings in Canada. Established in 1977, one of St.Catharines oldest and most established restaurants. Canada's Original Roadhouse
Had a great experience. Good food and plenty of it. Would definitely go back.
My partner and I held our wedding rehearsal dinner at Cats Caboose and we knew we were in great hands from our first interaction with Chris! He helped us build a menu that fit our wants, dietary restrictions, and budget and executed it perfectly! Everyone was so impressed by the food, and being gluten free, I felt very well taken care of and had tons of options. The service was also great and we loved the privacy of the back room. I highly recommend Cats Caboose for any event you’re holding!
Really enjoyed our meal here! One thing I like about this place is the fact you can get whatever you want so long as they have the ingredients. That alone makes me excited to return, along with some other intriguing options on the menu.
Visited for a late lunch yesterday, Labour Day. Sat on the patio, which is a fenced off area of the parking lot. (Dog friendly) lots of space between tables. Server was good, ordered coffee ( a little weak, but tolerable) water (not tolerable) turkey club with soup, Philly cheese steak with salad. Food was excellent. Sorry, no picture of the turkey club, oops.
Great service, great food and amazing vibe. The food is very delicious. We enjoyed the live band, was so refreshing. The place has very good vibes Offcourse the music makes it better . Loved it, will visit again They have different places to sit a patio, close to bar and area you just want sit with your family. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Drinks were good as well
One of my absolute favourite places to eat. Everything on the menu is good. Well renowned for their (Wednes) day pizza/wings deal, but also offer specials every day of the week. Soup of the day - delicious. Service is usually on point at all times, and they have live music on weekends. A great place to get together at any time. - If you're a serious spicy food connesuer, try their one-of-a-kind 'Memphis Fire' wings, a hand crafted recipe by the head chef, Chris. I genuinely used to be addicted to the Memphis fire 🔥 but now I use it responsibly. It's seriously good. And if you're a blue cheese lover theirs is the BEST! Lots of big chunks 😋
Fantastic. Was it timing or are they always like this? We sat in the caboose for dinner and listened to the band finishing their set. Our server was super helpful and the other wait help was very polite. The chicken bowtie I ate was most certainly one of the top pasta dishes I have ever eaten. Great place. I'm looking forward to returning with more friends.
This restaurant exceeded all my expectations on my first visit. You do not often find a place where every element comes together so perfectly. I’ll be recommending it to everyone searching for a good bar and restaurant in that area. I want to give a special shoutout to JULIA for making our dining experience truly memorable. Her attentiveness and friendly demeanor enhanced our meal and made us feel valued guests. Very Good and Big Dine in area and perfectly comfortable sitting. Worth Visit Again!
Always a great place to go to on a Saturday early evening. Jazz and great food. Kids welcome.
Never had a bad meal, bad service or bad time. Just an all round good place to go for a guaranteed delicious meal at a good price with friendly wait staff.
Kill Bill was playing, the food and drinks were great
Friendly people, fun, good music. Super delicious food
Food was great. Service was outstanding. Gentleman with a long white beard.
We always have really amazing food and service. The grilled veggie sandwich is the best I have ever had anywhere. We had a small mixup tn with our order and the owner/chef addressed it immediately himself which was extremely thoughtful and so surprising. Thanks to the hostess as well who helped us out. Appreciate all of you and so impressed with the service as always. Vegetarian options: Best grilled vegetable sandwich in Niagara!
Had a small event there , great value, food was excellent.
We travelled quite a distance from out of town. Made reservations for a booth (1 member in the party has a brain injury. Booths are a little more secure for them). The waitress who sat us was rude and didn t hear us, she said the booths are reserved. I tried to tell her yes, we reserved one. She sat us a table in the middle of chaos. (Not good for the person in our party who struggles). The booth with the reserved sign on it has sat empty our entire stay. Left a bad taste to our guests, the experience was not enjoyable.
Excellent meals all made to order with the option that if it s not on the menu and they have the ingredients available they will make it for you! The outdoor patio is fun and I love there s actually a train caboose as part of the restaurant.
Always a great social setting. Staff fantastic big shout out to Ashley. Thank you. Perfect Pizza! Food
Awesome food! Awesome service! Food
Cats is so comfortable to unwind from a long day! The bartenders and servers are awesome! Prices are great and the food is sooooo good!
The food was delicious, with generous quantities and excellent customer service!!
I remember cats caboose since childhood. Always been a decent place for food and hanging out.
Really enjoy going for a night out at Cats. Great food and awesome bands. Unfortunately their dance floor is getting smaller each time we go. Gets too cramped and people almost get pushed onto stage area.
We had deep fried pickles and wings and it was was so good, stayed for a band and had a fun night. Andrea, our server, is amazing as well! Adding to this review... lately the Dance floor sucks! It gets smaller everytime. Very disappointing! We go to dance and drink. Pretty hard to dance, with a band, when so many tables have been added crowding everyone. Very disappointing.
If you go here, get the Veggie Jackson. ITS SO GOOD. Thank me later.
Simply the best pub in St.Catharines. The Mussels on Fridays are amazing. Pizza is outstanding. Ok
Rude
We ordered take out fish & chips and one had gravy. Hot, fresh, and really good! Staff were very accommodating, knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. Food
Halloween was so much fun. The band was great, service was top notch.
Loved the band. Always a pleasure to watch under the sun
A good old American style bar with great food, people, and atmosphere.
Hot wings were great.... I judge a pub by its wings and these did not disappoint. the Nashville hot chicken sandwich was excellent. We started with the bruschetta...nice appetizer. Well balanced kitchen and we will be returning. Food
Some of the best pizza out there served in a classy and always bustling atmosphere. Always great service and the food is incredibly consistent. The prices are really great too, just a solid place.
I love this place. Been there 3 times. Ive only tried the Nashville Chicken Sandwich. Ill likely have it again the next time I visit... And the next time as well.
Always a great atmosphere. Food is exceptional and the place is always buzzing. Music/Band nights are a fun time as well.
Phenomenal!
Celebrating a 50th Anniversary with my Wife and Family. Great food and service
Good food and service
Hadnt been there in 30yrs. Slight change inside, but still the great place I remember with good food & service. Food
We Absolutely Love This Restaurant The Bands are always A Great Time The Service Is Always Top Notch
Nachos are huge!! Wings are fantastic will definitely go back.
Thank you Andrea for the perfect after-work meal. You were great! We will be back! Food
Held my Moms 75th Birthday here! Was amazing. The staff was great! Food was great. Would recommend.
Amazing food and service. We sat in a booth at the back end and it was lovely. The buffalo chicken salad is the best!
We went here two weeks ago their food is always delicious. We actually went on this day for their salads. They are so good and the portions are huge!
10 outta 10. Great food, amazing staff, fair prices and a really cool atmosphere. Oh yeah, they had live music going outside too. I cant wait to go back.
We had a private function in your back room on Tuesday October 1st 2024. We had an amazing time and our waitress Christine was top notch. She took all our orders of drinks, food and was bang on for everyone. Our food came out all at the same time. (23 people) I just wanted to share this and I would highly recommend Cats Caboose. Thank you, Christine and all the Staff.
Basically everything was amazing! Definitely recommend coming here! They had live music too and the band was AMAZING!
Biggest order of nachos ever. So good! Got the full order. Lol. Wont disappoint! Burger and smoked meat sandwich was excellent.
Did an amazing job with my daughters rehersal dinner. Fantastic food from Chef Chris!
Fantastic restaurant! The food is always amazing and a great value. The staff are the best! Super friendly, attentive, courteous and respectful. Ill definitely be back
Always amazing food.
I was there oct. 15th, had the fish and chips. The fries were soggy, hard, limp, and shrivel up. Disgusting. Seemed like he fries were double fried from the day before, either that or old grease. Between that and the flies, it wasn t a very good lunch. Not recommend.
Great Nashville chicken sandwich
For over 30 years, this has been a go to pub
Good food, typical roadhouse menu, warm and friendly environment. Quirky Turkey sandwich and Apple Cinnamon bread pudding are favourites. Dietary restrictions: Accommodating of peanut and nut allergies
ALWAYS Great service and great nachos
2lb of undercooked wings. Asked for well done!
A welcoming place with excellent food and a fun ambiance. Menu has a great variety of sandwiches burgers pizza and more. Sports on every tv. Great community vibe. My Aunts favourite place!
Hard Rock Hooligans rocking the night away. Denys Peel- Denbees.
Felt like a stranger dining at this location. Got weird looks from the servers and even late night, a few hours before closing when the place was dead, had the servers walk by when I clearly tried to get their attention.
Food took a while to come however, it was very busy so that was understandable Food was great as usual. Everyone liked what they ordered!! Thank you
Every time I pass by this place, it feels bustling with guests, creating a great atmosphere. I really enjoy their food; its authentic, classic, and generous in portions.
All round awesome restaurant good times and good food
Great spot. By far, the best chicken wings Ive had in years, and I have eaten my fair share of wings. The blue cheese dip is also one of the best Ive had. Great cocktails, very friendly staff, and the foccia cheese bread was on point. Vast menu with lots of options, but come hungry bc the portions are huge, from looking at the other tables. If you like something sweet, I highly recommend the Crime Brulée they serve it with a not so sweet raspberry jam that is a great contrast.
Great beef on a bun with cold draft beer. Kid-friendliness: There is a kids menu. Food : 4/5 |
We ate outside, there s lots of space!! The portions were BIG!!! Very sweet staff, and good food. Would definitely come again if I m near.
I had a quesadilla and it was amazing, the staff was great too! I had my dog with me on the patio and he watched me eat lol I think it s great they allow dogs on the patio
Best restaurant in St.Catherines
First time eating here. Great place to catch the game with a few beers or family dining. Great food. Even better service. Fantastic experience.
Friendly staff welcomed us in. Water was filled regularly. (We were on the patio and it was hot). Food special was a great value and tasted great too.
Yummy food, great prices and unique. Laid back atmosphere.
Great place, good vibes and amazing food. The service was timely manner and staff was very friendly.
Really good food and service
Great service, drinks and food.
We enjoyed a pizza and fish and chips. The server was friendly and efficient. Although it was busy the service was timely. We will return.
Great food. Rehearsal dinner with 24 people.
Great service good food everything homemade got a very tastey birthday dessert,been here several times and cant wait till I go back,already know what Im having
The staff are very nice and attentive when you can find them, clearly too many tables per server. Food was low quality, cool and drinks were watered down. It has a great vibe but needs work.
Excellent service
Food
I ve been a few time, a great place with good staff. Would totally recommend the cheese steak sandwich. Will come back again.
Visit this place whenever we are in town. Great food and service.
Had Philly sandwich and it was super yummy
The best friend chicken in the city
Love the dog friendly patio!
Bar should be separated from dining area
Cats has a varied menu with plenty of options. The staff are welcoming and attentive. Service is simply excellent. Most importantly, the food is excellent! The prices cannot be beat. Quality and value with amazing service. Toss in a great atmosphere with a lot of seating. There is a reason why this place has been in business for as long as it has. Parking: The lot will look busy but its very large. I have always found a spot.
My all time favorite place. Best food. Staff are like family.
Wonderful service, great food & atmospher!
First time visitor. Will be back for sure next time in town. Good size spot, plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating.
This is my first and last time here my wife and i had reservations and when we arrived we were taken to the back corner and before we tried to sit the woman was gone the booth was uncomfortable so I asked a server standing at the bar if we could switch to a table she was extremely rude with us and then stormed to the front another waiter took us to a table the woman that waited on us was nice and the food was OK but after being spoke to the way I was I will never return!
A great place to get a reasonably priced meal. The food is always good and the staff is always friendly.
Surprised by how busy it was at noon on a Saturday. Almost full. That tells you more than I can say. Caution - Huge portions.
Portions are big so youll never leave hungry. Been here a few times, and the food was always a hit. One time the burger was dry and the next time perfect thats the reason for 5 out of 5 on food
Roadhouse type pub restaurant. Really good food, good service especially considering how busy they were. Food
Love music on Sunday was a hoot. Food was good. Prices were good. I will go back.
Good bar food casual spot
Food was great. Service was friendly. Only restaurant Ive ever visited that encourages substitutions.
10/10 place! Must visit! Although we were the only Indian when we entered. Great food! Good service and amazing music. I will definitely visit again for the vibes
Had a great meal tonight with my son. I believe the name of our server was Leanna. She was fantastic!! We both ordered the brisket burgers with fries and gravy. It did not disappoint. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Great atmosphere, great service. Best review for the pasta dishes, less so the burger.
My best friend and I ate outside on the patio. We had a Philly Cheese steak sub,onion rings,New York deli sandwich and fries, Cesar drink,and coke. The food was very delicious . Highly recommend.
Went there on Friday night got there at 7:30 left at 10ish, food was great when we ordered. The service was terrible though we came with a semi-large group and through out the night even when we got our food bad attitude from our server and other than sure never really spoke with us later on in the night. People in our group tried asking for drinks and she rarely came by and when she did it was like you d have to race to ask her for a drink. Like I said food was great just terrible service on Friday night, could have been the band and how busy it was but still just felt rude and low standards as a server and previously working at other restaurants.
Food was great and the service was awesome! The Monday special Philly Cheese steak was amazing!!! Was here again with a large party of 30. Our server Emma was amazing!! Constantly making sure we had drinks, remembering whos order was for who, making zero mistakes!!! Just an amazing experience! Thanks guys!!!
Just need to compliment the staff on their efficient and pleasant service. Weve had numerous family dinners there and are never disappointed. Thank you VERY much!
Good food and services are on point!
We went here as a group for dinner. All the staffs are welcoming and service was good. Food was also delicious and tasty. Definitely we can visit again for tasty food itself.
Our friend recommended this place, and we were seated promptly. However, after placing our order, it took them 40 minutes to bring our food. Following that, there was no service whatsoever. Eventually, we had to walk up to the front desk to request the bill. Despite leaving a 15% tip, we honestly felt it wasnt deserved. We wont be returning.
A nice cozy place in the neighborhood, their smashed burger and Nashville chicken sandwich were so good!
I loveddd this place, the servers deserve a raise they treat everyone with equality (I m black) and I still felt respected. The food was great, the portion sizes are okay as a foodie. Good job Cats Caboose I shall definitely return Food
Always enjoy Cats Caboose. I come from Burlington for the nachos!!
Always a good time when I go the food is fantastic and the staff is always pleasant
Had a wonderful time, busy place but the food was to die for!
Had a great dinner! Service was impeccable (Leanna) Food is delicious with great portions!!! Great atmosphere, staff is always cruising the floor!! We will be back for sure!! French onion soup, Nashville burg, buffalo dip, bruschetta
Amazing place food and service as well as atmosphere is always great
Great food & excellent service
Incredible food, the whe menu is dynamite! The service is also awesome. Our server was super attentive and friendly, I believe his name was Costa. It definitely has become my new spot!
I visited this pub to celebrate a friends retirement. Everything was great from the draft beer to the nachos. I would definitely go back and visit again.
Excellent food, great food and great atmosphere...a win win!!! And the best ever waiter...Costa :)
Food is always amazing! Great daily specials.
Fish and chips were excellent and a good quantity.
First time. Great place. Will be back
Had a lovely time with my co workers at Cats this evening. Service was great! I was a bit disappointed with the focaccica cheese bread. I was actually a lot disappointed. No fluffiness, bubbles or thickness. Literally sliced bread maybe a French loaf? With garlic butter & marble cheese. I also am not sure if the very nice waitress was aware of what actual focaccia bread looks like? Other than my disappointing bread. Everything was 100%! Have a FOCACCIA MAKIKG DAY AND LET YOUR EMPLOYEES INDULGE! switch that item on your menu immediately, its sliced loaf at best! Google FOCACCIA please! You will not regret it.
Love our server Andrea! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free buns offered Food : 4/5 |
Incredible food, excellent service
What an absolutely PHENOMENAL experience and meal we had at Cat s Caboose!! This restaurant was recommended to us by my mother in law and it absolutely did not disappoint! Our server s name was Abby and she was so great with our group of 9 people! We arrived right at opening time and we were greeted with warm friendly smiles. We were seated immediately and they quickly accommodated our larger group with a great table size for us. We had drinks to start and everyone ordered a meal. Our food came quickly and was VERY good! The atmosphere was so great- truly a well loved spot in this community as the restaurant was FULL when we were leaving! We loved every minute of it and everyone left so happy and satisfied. Cannot wait to return! Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options are available in each section of the menu! Parking: Super easy to get a parking spot in the huge lot Kid-friendliness: They had a kids menu with crayons that were immediately given to my daughter and fantastic options for food for her! Wheelchair accessibility: This restaurant has an accessible front entrance with a large parking lot
Emma. P was fantastic! Highly recommend
The place was great! Emma p helped us, she was AMAZING!
We drive from Burlington to this establishment. Friendly staff, clean and the foods consistant. Wheelchair accessibility: No Automatic door, but super easy entrance. Bathroom is room as well.
We love coming here for pizza and wings. It is the best in the city.
Had a gathering for 35 people, they created a menu for us and worked within our budget. Every single person invited complimented the food. Its rare these days to find quality pub food, but Cats has some of the best. Its a little pricy, but what isnt these days, its comparable to other pubs, but you likely wont find one as good in Niagara Region. Staff was excellent as well. Dietary restrictions: Theyll accommodate any dietary need you have regardless of what is on the menu, just ask.
Was very wonderful because they have good food, fast on take your order and bring your order was very nice and Love is food
10 stars!!! I reserved a dining room at Cats Caboose for for 25 people to celebrate my husband 50th birthday, on Saturday and our experience was absolutely top shelf. From the initial call with Scott, to the end of the evening, absolutely every detail was taken care off by the staff at Cats Caboose. They even let me drop off our cake early and kept it in their fridge, and put out my decorations too! The food all came out at the same time and everyone had their dinner, hot, correct and at the same time!! For 25 people!! The servers were super friendly, happy to help, the food was delicious, and just everything about the whole experience was crazy good!! 10 stars, will definitely be going bsck and recommending this restaurant to anyone wholl listen! :)
Great service. Friendly staff. Fast kitchen. Food is great. Try the Nashville Hot Chicken. Good portion sizes. Price is a little high. Clean facility. Nicely decorated interior. Clean washroom. Live bands on certain nights. Bookings for large gatherings available. Love the train caboose outside. Free WiFi. Plenty of free parking. Patio available. Bar seating available. Parking: Plenty of free parking. People park very odd in front of this place.
Ive been here 4 or 5 times, and can say its just an average eatery, with a few standout items like the Cobb Salad.
First timer..great food n service
I enjoyed a great time out for dinner and Music with my wife. Thanks Scott Hill and your amazing staff for another awsome experience. Food
I booked the private room on January 22nd for March 1st. I recieved a phone call a few hours before my wifes 30th birthday party saying that the room was booked long before I reserved it. No apology. All he said was, I dont know why they reserved it. Luckily industria snuck is in last minute and had a great experience.
Food is good, service is desperate for tips. I Havent and will not return because the women only care to shove their breasts directly and upfront in my boyfriends face. Have some class and respect, what happened to basic moral standards. Absolutely disgusting.
Good food friendly staff.good prices
This place is fantastic. The meals are delicious and reasonably priced. The wait staff have always been attentive and polite. I reccomend the bowtie pasta, or their fish and chips, you will not regret it. I reccomend you make a reservation, it gets busy!
If I could give a 0 I would, went for party and they were understaffed and everything was slow which is something I can understand and the waitress was amazing. On the other hand the owner is scum. I ve been a few times and each time the AC is not running and the customers are dripping in sweat, I had to use a menu to fan myself off as well as others. The owner had walked by and ripped the menu out of my hands mumbling that he turned the AC on and ran off. When I confronted him he used a lame excuse that he fell and then proceeded to complain to someone s mother about me that I was annoying how professional. Meanwhile the exit that was being used had a greasy floor ( no signs or precautions) and 2 people had fallen, one being an older lady that couldn t walk properly after she fell and the response was she shouldn t be walking there . This place is an absolute joke and I hope nobody gives this business another cent as the owner is absolutely disgusting and only cares about money to a disgusting degree.
Server was good no complaints but the owner was insanely rude and unprofessional with zero care for the customer!
Nice older pub feel. Great chicken sandwich. Kid-friendliness: Childrens menu for ordering and colouring. Food : 5/5 |
