Brookside Restaurant & Bar

Am I stupid... I bought a groupon for this place thinking it was BrookFIELDS. OMG, why do these places have similar names? It tricked me. Well then I read the reviews for this place. I was hoping it would be ok.

The inside of this place reminds me of a lodge or cabin. It's got a rustic country look to it. It's quite clean too. The service is a little slow, but they do try to be attentive to the guests. When we had an issue with one of our entrees, they quickly and without hesitation amended the issue.

As for the food, everything was alright. It was like home style cooking, nothing super fancy. Overall, I wasn't wowed by the food or the place in general. Not sure that I would come back but that's just because this place is a little far from my house. I do think this place would be great to hang out and watch a game. I hear they have a good happy hour.

Delicious, fast friendly service...felt very welcome. Food was super.  Best Burger I have had in a long long time...the bread was a smidge crispy but fluffy not your normal bun you get from J IN the B...A delish bun but not too much bread a perfect fit for a burger. Everything was fresh and there was actual roasted garlic on the burger. Came with french fries, the skinny and crispy kind (I hate the thick ones, If I wanted a baked potato I wouldn't have order French fries, right?)  So, loved the Burger fries combo. Anyway, loved the whole experience. (saw some ugly reviews and was hesitant about stopping by before but the whole place is now upbeat and friendly under the new ownership. Also, I hear there is live music outside on Fridays. Looking forward to it!!

First time here and we all really enjoyed it. Great burgers and excellent service. Everyone's food was tasty and each of the staff members we talked to made sure we had a good time. Looking forward to our next visit.
