It's more interesting for your tastebuds and why not treat them to a well known dish made a little bit different with fresher pieces? I loved my Manitoba potato week special, the limited edition shepherd's pie. It was delicious and so filling! I vowed to go back to this location and try some sandwiches and I also told my friend that when I have an important high paying job some day I will shop here from time to time. I will check out the freezer and try a different pizza pie with a unique recipe. There's so much to explore in and at this shop food wise. They even prepare sandwiches in front of customers at the deli counter section near the cash register. The customer service was great and the food amazing! I highly recommend them.

I had seen this place driving by but never stopped in. I was going to get a pizza next door but…read morestopped in on a whim. It's a nice tidy sandwich shop specializing in pressed sandwiches. I got a Cuban which was pretty good (but not as good as one I had in Florida). You can add ingredients like at Subway to the recipes they have. They have several bread options and they cut slices for you, the rye bread I had was nice. Large sandwiches are approx $13. It's a little pricey but it's real food. Just one staff member when I went on a Friday afternoon, they were friendly/cheerful. Not the cheapest option for sandwiches (and we like cheap eats in Winnipeg...) but a nice change to having subs all the time. I'd go here occasionally, take a co-worker, etc. There are a lot of food options at the area so I hope they stay in business.

3.5/5, +.5 for service…read more Went to Block and Blade for a friend's birthday party. We were part of a large group of about 20, and the server accommodated us very well. The restaurant is slightly upscale, with a wealth of food options at somewhat higher than average prices. I was torn between a few items, but I settled with a starter french onion soup and an entree of chicken tenders and fries. I've had lots of french onion soups in my life. This one was quite good; the gruyere cheese was plentiful and was gooey, which is how it should be. The chicken tenders were crispy with plenty of batter. The honey dill sauce is on the creamy side, which I didn't like as much but I can imagine others preferring the creaminess of the sauce. It won't be a place that'll be on my regular visit rotation due to location and price, but I'd definitely have this in my list of suggestions for a special occasion.

Don't bother going to this restaurant if you're alone and over 50 years old. You'll be ignored…read more On the four separate occasions, I went there on the way to a regular appointment. I had in the neighborhood. One time I sat at a table; one time I sat at the bar and a third time I saw it in a booth. On each occasion, I waited between 15 and 20 minutes for somebody to even come to the table. On two of the occasions, the food came before I had a set up at the table, and the server disappeared, leaving me with no cutlery and a meal rapidly getting colder. The first time this happened I contacted the restaurant management and said that rather than leave a bad review, I would like to speak to him about it. It obviously didn't help because the next three visits were just as disastrous.

The place goes all-in on the firefighter theme; there's a big mural, every sub has a fire-fighter themed name... it feels very macho in there. They are very big into donations to fire-fighter charities, a little too much so. Front counter staff are friendly the times I've been there. Subs are a little pricey but quality is good. The medium is a good size for me for a small dinner or lunch.

+.5 for service…read more Tried Firehouse Subs for the first time after hearing my friends in the US give positive reviews of it. It was extremely busy when I arrived, and it was consistently busy the entire time I was here. Lots of online orders as well from what I saw. I had the 6-inch brisket hat trick on a whole wheat bread. I considered a footlong as I was quite hungry, however upon seeing some of the portions coming from the kitchen, they were huge...so I opted for a 6-inch instead. It took a while for my order to be served, which I understood as it was extremely busy. The wait was worth it though, as the sub was indeed loaded with toppings, and I found it overall to be really good! The ingredients were fresh, and it didn't seem like anything was pre-made (I could be wrong here though). Service was excellent here. Way better than Subway for the value you get.

I stayed in Island Lakes while I was on vacation in Winnipeg. The closest Starbucks from where I…read morewas staying was this cafe. It's located in a large plaza. No Frills and Liquor Mart anchor it. I entered the plaza. It was a sharp right turn by this cafe. It was tight to hit the cafe's drive-thru that I ended up cycling around to enter it safely. There was a deal going on where you could get a croissant and an iced coffee for $5. I got a regular croissant heated up and a grande iced coffee with a splash of oat beverage. I ordered through the Starbucks app and drove over here. I got a friendly male voice when I got to the speaker area of the drive-thru. I said that I had a mobile order and stated my name. He said that my order was ready and said that I could drive up to the window. At the window, he cheerfully greeted me and handed me my goodies. He looked at my nails and said that he liked them. I had Hello Kitty and blue gel strips that were over two weeks old on my nails. His compliment made my day. I thanked him. He asked if I needed a straw. I said yes. He was great. He hoped to see me again. So friendly! I enjoyed my iced coffee. It was cold and yummy. The buttery croissant was delicious. It was flaky, buttery, and paired nicely with my iced coffee. I came back a few days later to fetch my birthday drink. The first barista had the day off. I got an equally friendly female barista. I ordered a venti summer skies refresher. I also felt like breakfast and got a sausage and egg sandwich. I had also ordered these items through the app. This woman wished me a happy birthday. I wasn't expecting it, but it was a lovely gesture. I got my drink with a straw and napkins with my sandwich. I thanked her and headed over to a parking spot to enjoy breakfast. I used to get the sausage and egg sandwich often several years ago. It has changed. The English muffin is smaller. I actually like less of it to get to the protein. It's the perfect size for the egg and sausage. This sandwich was extremely cheesy. Cheddar cheese melted and stretched when I took it out of the paper bag. I still love this sandwich. It was yummy and hit the spot. The summer skies refresher is my favourite summer drink. I love it so much, especially with the raspberry popping boba. I miss this Starbucks. Staff were super friendly and they never messed up my orders. The drinks and food were yummy. (301)
