    The meal was good. We don’t go out to eat often so maybe we were a little disappointed that the meal was not “amazing”, but certainly nothing to complain about. When you spend $200 on a meal (including half litre of wine — under $50) we thought the food would be spectacular, but really very average. This was our first time to this restaurant. Service was excellent.

    I expected a different kind of mood and more ambience. This restaurant is definitely elegant but I found it a little too cold... service was prompt and polite but nothing over the top. I have experienced warmer and more interactive service elsewhere. The food we ordered was presented fabulously but that’s where it ends. The flavour was ok , nothing "whow". Too mushy and a bit on the havy side. I was not impressed, neither my husband who pretty much never seems to be dissapointed , but this time he was a little bit. Saying all that, it was our first time there and we only tried 3 appetizers and 2 lunch entrees, so this review is based on very personal and very different expectation that was not met.

    It was such a magical experience dining in the outdoor greenhouse as night fell. We started the experience with a Rossini (prosecco with strawberry) and Peel St. Pilsner. My Rossini came with 3 flower buds on top and was delicious. Next came our appetizer - Deep Fried Ravioli. Highly recommended. Our entrees were the Puddicome "Za" which was 8 huge slices and delicious. We also had the Chef's Friend Chicken Sandwich with fries - another incredible dish that I would order again. We can't wait to go back for another experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

    Overall excellent. The one item is that it was cold in the restaurant, so much so that some of the staff were wearing ski jackets as they worked. Food, service, staff, atmosphere, all excellent and well priced for a very upscale dining experience. They just need to turn the thermostat up a bit.

    Puddicomb House is one of our new favourite restaurants in the Perth County and Waterloo Region areas. The menu selections change and evolve, but are always full of choice and innovative dishes. Depending on climate, eating outdoors is our chosen option, either open air, under a canopy, or in a heated greenhouse! Service is friendly and prompt.

    Booked a table for 4 for my wife's birthday and requested a gluten and dairy free dessert. The greenhouse for dinner was perfect. Intimate and comfortable. Didn't feel like we had to whisper and even though it was cold outside the mini fire place kept the space warm. Food was great with lots of GF and DF options and substitutions. When all was done with dinner they brought out sherbet for my wife. Great experience and lovely ambiance.

    Worth going once. Ambient is amazing, 1850's construction, with a good background history. Thus, I was expecting eloquent waiters, at least a Sir/Mrs/Ms, instead of ("what do you wanna guys"); to open and hold the restaurant door for the customers, mainly ladies. Everything is a perspective, I don't expect this behavior in a 2020's pub. About the food. For the appetizer a foie gras, well served, amazing presentation for a fair price ($20). Main was a fettuccine with short rib bolognese, presentation good, pleasant taste, however, spicy. fair price (around 25$). And a "daily dish" (every two weeks they changed. Was a tomahawk ribeye with puree, grilled potato and beetroot. tasty, BUT super overpriced ($60). Desert a chocolate cream, to be honest, with all respect to the chef, seems like a Costco dessert. Saying that, I can recommend to a friend but will share my previous experience. Maybe one day back with family and friends and try something else.

    We booked for the greenhouse experience. That was really nice! Our server was lovely. As was the hostess and food runner. Staff was great overall! Food left something to be desired. The pizza was undercooked, the salads were overdressed for a delicate baby kale, the fries were insanely salty, and the burger was dry and dense. Perhaps we ordered the wrong items. I'm sure the food there is wonderful. I just felt pretty underwhelmed with what we received.
