Great service and, even the province forced us to be outside in the frigid cold, the servers were very accommodating!
Great fun! Dining in the yurt is cool. Thanks for a great experience.
My go-to option for casual dining especially in the summer when their patio opens. Food is amazing and always receives great service!
Always good food
Probably should have staffed more considering the sunshine. Seemed like server was also responsible for making drinks which lead to waiting 20 mins for a Caesar with no spices or flavour. Place is nice but needs some attention to detail and service
Wonderful to be back on the Amsterdam patio! Great food, beer, and service!
Good beer, so-so food, expensive. The patio is nice.
Great food. Friendly waiting staff. Dog friendly. Great beer. Couldn’t ask for more. Love this place.
We sat outside, I was worried it might be cold but there were plenty of heaters and the offer of blankets.
Our server Kevin was fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable and very attentive.
We had a great time.
Super clean, good ambiance. The Patio kept warm with ample heaters.

The service and food was great. But the reservation process was not ideal. As you know we cannot eat inside so patio is the only option. However, Amsterdam has yurts and I wanted to book one of these but this was not an option on your site. I mentioned it in the comments but the restaurant didn't get this message and had not set us up in the yurt.
However, there was a free yurt and they were able to set us up in there and it was a great experience.
Good food and great service!
There appeared to be some confusion at the door. Even though we had a 3:00 reservation we were made to wait about 15 minutes while they seated other people with 3:00 reservations.
I really like Amsterdam Barrel House. The food is good and the beer is excellent. I was a bit disappointed after having a reservation and then still having to wait to get a table. Then finally sitting down and the server first served a table that showed up after us. That was annoying. The service improved a little bit afterwards. Amsterdam always has very good food. I recommend the delicious cauliflower app and the double stout is amazing. The service is generally very good. This time it was average.
Our experience was only marred by the absence of the fire burning. It was cold up on the second floor.
Pretty good - our service was a bit slow due to the weekend crowd - but that is just picking up the nitty-gritty.
In general - the food was great - the beer was great - seating was good.
The location is a bit off, especially if you are using TTC as you might drink.
Does not have a great view of the likes of Amsterdam Brewhouse but then you get the reservation fairly easily.
A very pleasant and reliable place to eat, with good service and good food.
Great night. Lovely ambience in the dark with fires and lights twinkling. Good device. Felt safe.
Lovely patio although some traffic noise. Food could have been warmer.
Spacious patio with proper physical distancing guidelines. Great menu with options for everyone.
Great evening on the patio. Great food, ambiance. The Barrel House have done everything to make patio dining a success including providing fleece blankets. We would definitely come back.
Great pub and nice fireplace
Great patio! Great service and exceptional handling of Covid protocols.
Really enjoyed our first visit here. All covid precautions are taken seriously and felt very safe and able to enjoy some normalcy.
Drinks were really lovely and the staff were knowledgeable and recommended some great beers for us. Food was top quality and really tasty.
We were sat outside but next to a lovely gas fire and were warm (with coats) despite the cool weather. There were other heaters and fires dotted around. A great place to get out for a drink and some grub!
The patio was warm enough. Th service was excellent & responsive
Excellent everything but PLEASE bring back the Brussels sprouts starter!
Great food and service
We love being able to pop into the restaurant because the patio is a safe area, attractive. The staff is very accommodating and helpful.
The menu holds a few of my favourites. Fish tacos! 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for being open for a safe Covid safe environment. Well done. You make me feel like life can almost be not.
The place is great and the service is wonderful!
Wonderful service, great food and wine (we had the chicken schnitzel and artichoke dip) very safe outdoor experience with a lovely heater beside us. I’ll be back!
Great place for an afterwork drink on a Friday. Had indoor and outdoor socially distant seating. Great staff.
Limited menu which was a bit disappointing. Great service
Grrat service from our server. All your team were excellent and attentive...and even provided some comedy ad well. Excellent night. Thank you to all.
Oh, and the food was delicious.
Staff are very friendly, the upper patio is fabulous and the food is excellent. We will be back.
Bradly our server was amazing.
He’s a real asset
Welcoming atmosphere and good social distancing practices
Great patio. Would be nice if you innstalled a few heaters so you can keep the patio open longer.
Food was overpriced and very bland. Server was pretty good but even with a reservation we were made to wait almost 15 minutes before being seated. Not a great value here. Many other places in the neighbourhood offer far better food with prices to match.
This is definitely my go-to place. Now that the weather is getting cooler, they have begun using the outdoor fireplaces and heaters which adds to the ambiance and some welcome warmth. The food is a great value and delicious. Even though it is extremely challenging for the staff and restaurant to navigate during the COVID restrictions, you would never know that it has any kind of negative effect on them as everyone is so positive and cheerful, despite what I am certain are often negative circumstances with some guests. Always a pleasure to come here and experience what Barrel House has to offer! Come soon and often while the weather is still conducive to outdoor dining.
Tina, Thanks so much for the kind & encouraging words that I will certainly pass along to the team. It can indeed be a hard industry to navigate but hospitality is the name of the game so I'm thrilled we're nailing it with you! Hope to see you again soon. All the best, Tina. Matt P General Manager
