    Chicken salad
    Wendy L.

    Our group oh six went to this pub tonight and had a very nice meal. It's a spacious homey pub and n cottage country. I ordered a spinach salad with salmon and it did not disappoint although I did think the prices were slightly high for what it was. But everyone enjoyed the food and atmosphere. They had a guy playing jazz on a piano which was nice. I would go back here again if I'm ever in the area.

    I decided to try out Simcoe Arms with a friend this weekend, after driving past it so many times on the way to the cottage. Though they had great service, lots of parking, and a beautiful patio, the food itself was unenjoyable. I am a lover of fish tacos, but this restaurant ruined my experience by making them really acidic and spicy. The tiny pieces of fish tasted like chicken fingers, and were stuffed with salad mix. No creaminess or flavour, except for the overwhelming acidity from the vinaigrette. My friend who got the buffalo chicken wrap said the same. Not coming back here for lunch, but maybe a just beer next time.

    There are few places where the atmosphere is as inviting as the Lake Simcoe Arms. Pub fare at its finest. Although this visit was simply to enjoy their selection of desserts, the visit was worth the stop. No matter what you had to eat at the Arms, be sure to leave room for the Bread Pudding. The warm cake, smothered with caramel sauce is to die for and the coffee warm and fresh. The kids enjoyed a huge piece of decadent Chocolate Loven cake drizzled with chocolate sauce - which they devoured, leaving nothing but crumbs. My compliments do not stop with dessert, as the wait staff were accommodating and friendly. When one of the kids were being challenging, as they are at times, over their dessert, she went beyond expectation to ensure everyone was happy with their experience. Only one word of warning --- although the patio is large, it does fill up quickly on a beautiful summers day. Be sure to claim your seat early :-).

    Very nice patio, came in on very hot evening 5:50pm, we were sitting inside then told one of the servers to pass it on we were moving outside because of the heat inside, things were a little mixed up but 10 minutes later we got water and order taken??i hope the food is good,lol I orderd the buffalo wrap, not good, fries were great, like swiss chalet, my wife's quiche was ok she said,service was ok to be honest

    Fun with friends!

    See all

    Great place to relax and have a cold pint and delicious burger on the patio, even in the fall! Becky is awesome. Cheers

On what should have been a quiet, relaxing evening, I instead…read morefound myself dealing with a bartender who was openly xenophobic and proudly broadcasting nationalist rhetoric--simply because I'm American. During slow hours, when there were no crowds to distract from it, this staff member decided it was the perfect time to make me feel unwelcome in their establishment. The comments weren't subtle. They were laced with hostility and prejudice, completely out of line for someone representing a business that claims to offer hospitality. I came here for a drink, not a lecture dripping with bigotry. It's 2025--how does a place like this still employ someone who thinks their job description includes insulting paying guests over nationality? The Mansion on High Street should be embarrassed to have staff like this. Until they take accountability and ensure their employees reflect basic decency and professionalism, I strongly recommend anyone--local or traveler--take their money elsewhere.

Disappointed
