I'd like to make a complain about the Mansion restaurant that I and my friends went together for…read morekaraoke tonight July 9th, 2025 at 9:20 pm. When we got there my friends did not have the ID with them which didn't allow us to get in, one of them had the student ID with their date of birth and when she went there to ask the guy that was asking for those he was rude and talking at her. We decided to have food outside since they had half price, when we sat we had to called the waiter because he was just ignoring us, I asked him about the wings, price and kind which he had not idea of what he was selling. So we went inside to ask for the menu since we didn't get any. The bouncer (the guy who denied the entrance and the one who yelled at my friend) he came to me (I had the ID) and start yelling at me telling me I can't be there because we don't have the ID and there is a bar, I told him to be more polite and talk to me better since we are buying food which he just respond screaming that he is the bouncer and we have to leave and doesn't matter that we are buying food. Awful experience, this was our first time going to that restaurant and this was the service that we got. These kids that were working tonight do not have any idea of customer service.

Where do I begin about this amazing restaurant/bar:…read more The service is absolutely phenomenal; the bartender and servers are so friendly and always willing to serve you. The food every-time I order it is always up to par. The atmosphere, the people; it's always a great place to come everyday, it's definitely my home away from home. I've met so many amazing people here; from the regulars, to the employees, to the owners; they are such great people to get to know and to become friends with. When I wanna go for lunch or dinner or a night of drinking; I choose The Mansion. When I'm either drinking at home or out at other bars in the Kingston area I ALWAYS end up at The Mansion for last call. It's not only close to home; The Mansion is home.

A great place to grab a drink with friends, watch some sports or even see a live band!!!read more

Alehouse is always packed to the gills with Queen's students, in fact one could say that it's been…read morecompletely colonized. While this isn't always a bad thing, if you go to Queen's you're inevitably going to run into at least four or five people you know. Which, depending on the night, can be good or bad. On the plus side they have incredibly cheap drink nights (Thursday is of special note) and students usually get in free most weekend nights with student cards before midnight. However, the music is miserable. Granted I haven't been to Ale more then once this year, but it's packed with top 40 hits, which isn't always a bad thing so long as they are mixed properly. But I can remember at least three different times where the music has just stopped (pure silence on the dance floor ensues) and where the DJs have switched and the same song has been played (boo).

The Grand Theatre is a much loved downtown concert venue that had a major renovation within the…read morelast few years. It's a good place for concerts, plays and the like, and it's worth seeing something here if you have a chance. Kingston is such a great city to see big names in small venues, and in my opinion, that's always the best way to see someone live. Seating is comfortable, and I don't think anyone in the back of the top level would have a drastically different view of the stage as someone sitting closer to the front on the lower level. I believe there is a bar and coat check service on the site.

Since the renovation, I have attended many events at the Grand. Sadly, my husband has rarely joined…read moreme. If you are under 30 years old, half price tickets are available for many shows. However, the tickets are usually located in the balcony. The leg room in the balcony makes an economy seat on a discount airline feel luxurious. I'm barely 5' tall and my knees touch the seat in front of me. If you can get orchestra tickets, the Grand Theatre is a fantastic venue. Even in the last row, the view is excellent. Parking is easy, the washrooms are clean, and the lounge is comfortable.

We were both extremely satisfied with what we decided on. Kaitlin was bubbly and fun and efficiently took our order and checked in on us several times during our visit. Despite the place being a bit busy we didn't feel rushed or unable to hear each other. The place had a lovely vibe with other tourists like ourselves as well as locals and probably university students as well. We didn't stay too late as we had an early start planned for our drive but it looked like the place was setting up for live music. I'd definitely stop in here again for a meal or a drink if I'm in the area.

This was by far the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant in my life…read more Most of the tables in the restaurant were filthy, we had to sit at a table that clearly hadn't been wiped down and even once we sat down and got menus no one offered to clean it. We waited almost 20 minutes just to have someone come and take our drink orders; because it took so long we went ahead and ordered our food as well. We waited probably 45 minutes to get our food order, which consisted of two sandwiches and fries. They had 5 staff members working on the floor and apparently 7 in the kitchen and the place wasn't not even half full. It was extremely disorganized, it was like everyone that worked on the dining floor did everything everywhere just trying to scoop up whatever tables they could. We were there for over 2 hours and no one even came and offered us another drink after we had been waiting so long for our meal. We could hear one of the cooks in the kitchen yammering about how at least he wasn't drunk today, which was completely inappropriate. You walk in and it looks like maybe someone is supposed to seat you but there's no one at all even near the front entrance and there's no sign saying to seat yourself. Two different tables got up and left in the time we were there because they were sick of waiting for service. Once we finally got our food it was mediocre at best. We had empty plates and cups for nearly 20 minutes before our server FINALLY brought us our bill. It was overpriced for the portions and quality of food. While we were paying our server finally acknowledged the slow service by making excuses saying "Sorry it was so slow, it's really busy" my husband looked right at him and said "Really, it doesn't look very busy in here, it's more than half empty." And then the server tried to say that it was because everyone comes in at once off the ferry. Stop making excuses it just makes it worse and that was all we got after being there way too long. I absolutely, will not return and I will never recommend to anyone.
