I love this place and their food. However, tonight we got garlic knots that clearly had raw dough in them. I’m not one to complain, but we sent them back and the chef disagreed with us and the server shook her head and said yeah I’m just the server. Very disappointed not sure I’ll come back.

I recently visited Batson River restaurant for the first time, and it was an absolute delight. Arriving a few minutes after opening on a Saturday, we were promptly seated amidst the festive and incredibly fun Christmas decor, setting the perfect mood for the season. The decorations alone made the visit worthwhile.
The food matched the festive atmosphere. I had the mussels and smoked haddock chowder, both had a rich and flavorful taste. The "Zero Proof" mocktail and non-alcoholic beer selection were a pleasant surprise, providing excellent alternatives.
Our waitress, Nicole, was not only attentive but also exceptionally kind, adding to the overall positive experience. I'm looking forward to my next visit!
We felt like we were an imposition to the staff. The host was rude. The waitress was worse. Ordered a burger rare. Was told they only come well done! (What???) Chose chicken sandwich. Came Overcooked and dry.
Was served the wrong drink for $19.
My wife asked to substitute fries for rice. An emphatic No!

Food was great. Restaurant was gorgeous. We sat at the bar and the service was awful. The server completely ignored us for most of the time we were there. It wasn’t busy, they just were not paying attention to the customers. Pretty disappointing

Just a great spot all around! Atmosphere is great, service great and food was delicious. Highly recommend the poutine and pretzel. The poutine is a huge portion covered with delicious smoked pork and cheese curds this is a meal in itself!
Looking forward to going back for their fish and chips meal that looked amazing too!

Best food. Great beer. Super atmosphere. Family friendly. Mussels and heirloom tomato salad were amazing. Pizzas were so good, even our 2 year old ate 3 slices of pepperoni.
