Love Beaver tails 😋

Aufgrund der Bewertungen hier eingekehrt. Es war kein Fehler, aber auch kein Erfolg. Der Boden klebte vor der Theke. Das Personal strahlte Gleichgültigkeit aus. Das Essen war Austauschbar, ohne Würze und Einzigartigkeit. (Poutine Standard). Der Shake war sehr, sehr, sehr süß.

Loved the food, loved the staff, loved the venue. The place could use an extra table or two though to eat at.

The staff isn't particularly friendly considering it's a super tourist-y place. Not rude or anything, just less friendly than expected. Also, I find portion size has diminished.

Un incontournable pour les touristes. Par contre c'est vraiment très gras & sucré. Une pour deux personnes suffit (au moins pour les grandes chaleurs).

A local bartender told us to try this & it did not disappoint. SO delicious - we got Killaloe & hazelnut & they were amazing. Samuel served us & he was so sweet & accommodating

I initially left a poor review because my Uber Eats order was canceled at the last minute by the restaurant. However, the owner promptly responded, explaining their limited control over Uber Eats & offering to rectify the situation via email. This response showed their commitment to customer service & reputation. I believe it was just a mix-up & don't want to unfairly hurt the business, especially since I didn't get to try their Beaver Tails.

Le temps d'attente fut interminable (1h) Plusieurs saveurs de crème glacée n'étaient pas disponibles & les boules au miel que j'ai commandés étaient dures comme du carton. Le staff avait l'air blazé. Déception.
