Graham Atkinson

Large sunny patio with good beer selection. View of town is pretty good from up here!

Sebastian

Decent food choices, place was packed mid week, decent beer ???? choices on tap. Servers were excellent, friendly & efficient. Decent value for your money ???? ????

Angelo Garcia

I am very delighted with the courteous and professional friendly service, great location with a beautiful view of Bancroft town's country side, the food is delicious and the drinks were made to perfection, the facilities are kept clean and tidy up, I definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and family, prices are fair and you get a lot for your Buck.

Michelle Smolarz

Excellent food and friendly fast service! Generous portions. The beef tenderloin was cooked perfectly .We'll definitely be back.

Glen Lewis

The Food is Fantastic... The Service however (everytime we've been there) sucks -ie: don't go there if ur rushed for time... They do have a Pet Friendly Patio though that sort of makes it all OK.

Laura Voskamp

I was super impressed at the all-around experience at The Granite in Bancroft. We visited after an overnight winter camping trip with local guide Cruising Canoes. The pub has an excellent craft beer selection given its remote location, and the knowledgeable service was always with a smile.

Allison Harford

Food was amazing!! We stopped for lunch yesterday and had the jerk chicken wrap and salad. All very fresh and fast. It was so tasty we went back today for lunch. I had the falafel wrap and my mom had the burger. Also just as amazing and tastey. I highly recommend this place. I saw the nachos come out for another table. They also looked pretty darn good. The only thing I would note is there was noticeably difference service when the owners were there. The staff was not very attentive on Sunday and I didn't see the owners.

John Measey

Consistently good. Friendly. Considerate. All things that you really want at a restaurant. Today I had ribs, which were great.

Adam Tilley

When in Bancroft and hungry there is no better option. An admirable selection of craft beer and well made pub style food. It's a great place to go after a day at Silent Lake.

Andrey Musvitskas

Nice atmosphere and good food

Garth Buswell

Food was good and service was great ,will be back! Thanks.

Alex Joannides

Incredible food!! I had the ginger chicken and noodles WOW!!!!! My wife had the pork…delicious. I’ll come back to this out of the way town just to eat. Enjoy

Jim Rogers

Cool

Naske

It’s a cute, local restaurant!Food was delicious, very nice staff! The view from the patio is beautiful!

Lori Moore

Great menu selections. Prime rib on Sundays is the best. Nice atmosphere.

Bill Hughes

The fries are incredibly tasty! Group of five ranging from 13-75 years had burger, wraps, and wild arugula salad. Everyone enjoyed. Nice view of the town of Bancroft. Good music playing on patio. Definitely would come back.

Valerie Miles

Always a good experience. The staff are friendly and Shane always hands me my beer as I walk in. Gotta love that...Good Food great location right on the trail

Sarah Nicholas (Away With You)

My go to restaurant when I'm at the cottage. The server was very nice and understanding. Service was a bit slow but the food is always good. The glasses of water however, were dirty, had seeds at the bottom from the previous drink and even lipstick on my friends glass :( I think they need a new dishwasher!! Other than that the balcony and view is nice.

Rick Erdelac

Good food we found while out sledding

Bill Fahey

Always good. Great patio.

Dustin West

Nice little restaurant with great food and atmosphere.

Jeanguy Dinelle

The food was good. The service was fast and the serverswere nice. We went with a group of six and it took the same time as if it was a group of three. They was a good view of the river and town. If you can stop in you should .

Pierre Bouchard

Nice hot afternoon on the patio. Good food but steak was over cooked.

Robin Wray

Best Dam wings ever!

Aileen Burke

Our table was at the rail overlooking the river. Great view! Great food!

Debbie Fox

Great food and the owners and staff are awesome. One of our favourite places to eat.

Nicolas Koeppe

A great choice in Bancroft. After many years of cottaging in the area, we decided to try out The Granite. An extensive menu that didn't overwhelm with choice, and the options provided were all desirable or interesting: a good mix of finer dining options along with simpler sandwiches and salads. We lucked out with one of the best tables in the house, right in a picturesque bay window. Service was prompt and courteous. Our appetizers and meals we hot, very fresh and well presented - and most importantly, tasty: Onion petals, chicken stir fry and beef tenderloin. Pricing would be considered aspirational. Live music on the night we were there was an added bonus! Recommended.

Kevin Archibald

Food was great. Very tasty. Nice atmosphere. Service was so-so however. Oh well. Id rather have mediocre service & great food then the other way around.

Stephen Walker

Food was good. We all enjoyed it.

John Finlaw

Big city feel in a tiny town. Good food at very reasonable prices. They have a diverse menu, great sandwiches and lunch specials, a full bar, and fast and friendly staff. The only thing keeping that 5th star is they close too early.

Sue Wright

Atmosphere great. Service friendly and prompt. Food delicious. Nice way to end a week vacationing in the area.

Brent Dalley

Nice atmosphere, good food, doesn't taste generic. They have good "seasonal vegetables" on their main courses.

Matthew Brooks

Awesome food, I have dined at 5 star restaurants that cannot prepare and present food to the level I recieved at this restaurant. We had the lamb, the stuffed chicken, and the pulled pork , and it was all amazing! I definitly recommend checking this place out!

George Flemming

I go here often and the food is very Good, generally friendly staff and good atmosphere to spend your night out. They have live music sometimes and most times the music chosen is pretty good. The patio is nice in the summer months.I would recommend this place. You don't need a reservation so just show up and enjoy your meal

Eve Barnabas

The food was delicious and the staff were amazing. I had a spicy pepper burger, anx it was so juicy and yummy. Would absolutely go back and dessert was fantastic as well.

Chris de Simpele

Had some very good food on the patio.

Glenn Tonge

Excellent food and very pleasant service. Had the Thursday night fish and chip. It was our second meal here, and won't be our last!

zoltan urban

Corky place food is nothing special almost average the whole place Just too expensive for what you get

Laura Penwell

Awesome food and service

Kris Howson

It's been a while since I've been, but it left a very nice lasting impression on me, so that's cool. The interior (and exterior too) are decorated really nicely, the vibe and atmosphere of the place is really cool and fairly modern (for Bancroft (no offence, Bancroftonians(?))) and the food is really good as well. It's got a lot of unique dishes, but they're not too crazy over the top wild, just wild enough to give it a little flare but not too much that you don't know what you're ordering/eating, y'know? Cute little spot right on the hilltop, over looking the Southern part of town, so in the Summer it's a nice view with the meal!

Attila Jaszai

Good food and very friendly service, our first dinner out together as a family since Covid and we had a good time on the patio ,recommend it

Tyler Parker

Brent said it was good!

Mxz “Skidoogal” Tnt

Our server Ashley was super friendly. Food was dynamite. And.....right beside the OFSC trail. We'll be back for sure.

Glenn DuQuesnay

Can't get my steak right, couldn't cook medium rare, almost well done twice.

HarleysAngels Mom

Very nice restaurant and patio in Bancroft... And if you choose to sit on the patio there are some very nice views of the water, even better

Karola

Great efficient friendly staff. Nice patio away from downtown Bancroft noisy stretch. Cool hockey player sculptures to take selfies with. Lots of food choices. Salads. Burgers. Butter chicken. Fish Tacos..Kids get paper and crayons. Relaxed atmosphere on patio. Didn't go inside. Stairs to patio. Parking.

John Miller

Very nice restaurant with a view especially in the fall with all the colours from the trees.

Enna Hughes

Great food but less great prices... only nice restaurant in town that we saw.

Nathan T

Good food, good beer, great service. This will be my pit stop everytime I'm in the area.

Ron Tremblay

Good food service need to pave and provide more parking scraped bottom of car leaving the parking lot

Yian Lin

I really enjoyed their food and service there. Views were wonderful at fall.

René Sandino

Great patio. Service was great also. Their Crazy Hot wings are actually crazy hot. They make the sauce in-house and will knock your socks off while having a sweet tang. Wife had a chicken wrap which was also delicious. Definitely going back when I'm in the area.

Jen Gaffney

Excellent food, excellent staff! Location is accessible, easy to find and clean. For a small town the place has always been mostly full when I’ve gone. Totally worth the trip for wings!

Brian Bancroft (Cartobites)

Solid service. Was welcomed on entrance both by signs and people. Big open patio. Food was tasty if a bit rich. Recommend the Bombay burger and the chicken sesame stir-fry. Would return again

Michael DeLong

Great place to unwind nice patio at the top of the hill overlooking Bancroft good menu basic bar and pub type with some eclectic items cold beer and that says it all service is excellent and the food is tasty and there's always a special to try

Steve Dziama

Awesome "Best" burger

Sharon Moore

Great food and service.

Fringo Melly

Even though I live in the area, it was my first time in there, the food was good and the service fast, pleasant and efficient, I got the granite burger and my friend got the prime rib, both were very well presented and tasty, decor was very nice with some artwork on the walls for sale, will definitely be back

John Alexander

Was in the area and decided to come here on a whim. The burgers were amazing, price was decent too. Staff was polite but this was mid-fall and mid-day so it was fairly quiet and wasn’t many people. There’s quite a few TV’s and a Bar as well. Bathrooms are neat and very clean - a bit dark though but sometimes that nice lol

Joe Plazek

Our sled trip a few times in the season. Simply awesome.

nick dane

Great wings

Tiffany Beth

Atmosphere sucks for the price.. no view.. ugly restaurant.. our waitress was friendly but noticed a very rude waiter at another table... the brie appetizer and fish tacos were amazing.. the tacos are really a meal. I was disappointed to see I read and old menu online so the onion soup and lamb shank I went for weren't on the menu. There weren't many other choices and no chefs specials so went for the chicken Supreme. Good portion and juicy just not what I was craving. My boyfriend had the smoked porkchop which oddly tasted like a smoked ham steak with a bone? Found the texture odd for a chop and was glad I didn't order it. Had a few cocktails and it was$185.. won't be back.. there's better places with nicer ambience for that price.

Alan Crimi

Food was awesome, great selection, reasonable prices, great service.

Andrew Douglas

California wrap was delicious. Taco salad was strong although could have been a bit spicier. Good wait staff. Quick service.

Lonita Reed

Great for sledding

Allie Burgess

Excellent food/big portions, great atmosphere and amazing service.

Taylor Collins

Food was OK. Service was TERRIBLE. We couldn't get a drink for 15 minutes - not even water. We could not find our waitress. We had to get up from our table whenever we needed something (also to get more napkins). My daughter spilled milk and we had to go in twice to ask for more napkins and help cleaning. Then we ended up going up ourself after waiting almost ten minutes to get a rag and a spray bottle they had sitting at a front table. Would not go here again.

Darryl Marks

Great steak and calamari and bloody Ceasars

George Thomaidis

Very good food

mario spez

Fun time for lunch great service and atmosphere Highly recommend

Oren Steinman

Food was good, but they lost our order. No compensation for waiting more then 1 hour for our food.

Chris Houston

Great menu combining mid and high end food. Excellent service, plenty staff. We enjoyed a meal for two on the nice patio with the lovely backdrop and live (fun, not too loud) music. Great atmosphere without being pretentious. Highly recommended.

Pea Dot

Excellent food and great service!

Josey Vogels

Best nachos hands down. The pub side is great for hooking up with friends for a drink and a casual bite. Awesome patio in the summer.

Dave Cushing

I had the Best Burger and my wife the Ginger Chicken. Both were excellent and I would definitely order them again. Portion size was too big for us, but I'm sure the younger guys would love the awesome Best Burger. Service was excellent even though it was pretty busy. Would definitely visit again!

Michele Gallo

I have been to granite a few times now, some times with friends for beer and wings, some times with family and kids. Some times just with my wife. Every time we have enjoyed a great meal, and lots of good beverages to choose from. The staff has always been very kind and helpful. Today we stopped in during longer snowmobile ride with my wife and kids and again the food was great and we didn't have to wait long at all even though they had lots of guests inside enjoying themselves. It was comfortable even with all our gear. I feel the price and portions are very good for what you get. We will definatly go back. Cheers.

Hugh Caldwell

Service was good, staff were friendly, food good and well priced.

Jeff Goldband

This is a decent place to eat in Bancroft. Service was good and the food was good. It's mostly bar food so stick with burgers and east stuff like that. If it's a nice day try to get a seat on the patio.

kelley hennessey

Great service and food!

James Kirby

Nice atmosphere. The interac machine was down when I was traveling through. I had a noodle with CHINESE chicken ball dish that was tasty. Bar needs a foot and arm rest to be more comfortable and better drinking chairs. Place had many people in it which must indicate other people enjoyed themselves there once before too.

Kyle T

Best spot in Bancroft for patio and food! The Brewery place in town needs a friendlier more competent staff to be number 1 so for now it's the granite!

Sean Dunlop

Have been to this restaurant several times. It has a comfortable and sophisticated atmosphere, but, is not pretensious. Dressed up or casual you'll feel at home.

Mike

Fantastic food and even the mixed drinks where great. Definitely would go back.

Maryam Talaghi

Pasta and steak were tasty. Staff was very nice. Just small problem. Shrimp pasta had exactly 5 shrimp and few mushrooms. For 25$ pasta, I believe it should be more than this.

Robb Bouck

Had the steak wrap. Honestly the BEST wrap I have ever had. Absolutely AMAZING!!!!! Staff was very friendly. Would come again for sure. You need to make this a stop if your in town.

Sieglinde Stiles

Overpriced for quality of food. Service just barely adequate

Rob Riegs

Good location, good food

Justin Lim

Three words: raspberry balsamic heat

Johanna Roach

This was our second time here and the food is really good. The view is excellent

Amanda Woodburn

Friendly staff, delicious food and welcoming environment. Great spot for friends to meet for food, great for families to dine-in but also awesome for "skip dishes & just get 'like home cooked take-home food". Great for meetings and gatherings both professional and personal.

Mark Dee

This was our second time here. The patio on a sunny day is just amazing and food is pretty good. Staff is very friendly and helpful, was able to recommend good dishes based on our taste.

Sayani Chowdhury

The food portions are massive and priced accordingly. Really enjoyed their patio as the wait wasn’t too long and the servers were super friendly too. Ordered their cheese tortellini and the portion size was really huge! Their fish tacos are also super flavourful

mikeap1987

Nice to have something higher class up North. Clean cozy place, lots of cool beers on tap. Awesome jumbo wings with really good sauces. Also had a salad and poutine, all was good. Keep it up Granite!

Michael Beresford

This is a great place to stop and eat in Bancroft. Well worth it! It is on the main road (east west) through town, and the menu is comprehensive and the food very tasty! I took my Mom and Aunt there for a special occasion and they also loved it! We even met some people there that we know! Do youself a favour and give it a try!

Darryl & Jennifer Wheeler

Great food

Miladin Vrbaški

Food is ok

Andrew Choly

We stayed at the Somerset Inn, asked the manager where is the best place to eat, he replied by saying the restaurant just before the split in Bancroft. The Granite! Our waitress was friendly, a great server, the food, the very best we tasted in days, the portions were spot on, my wife complimented the chef, that's a rarity. I highly recommend this restaurant, service, food and atmosphere is the very best.

Kye Lippold

Very friendly service, good food.

Heather Landry

Good selection on the menu, although can be a bit on the pricey side. Pretty good drink selection, wish there was more cooler options.

Eric Mckenzie

Good food and service!!

Ashley Price

Great food good service.

Adam Pollack

Good food in Bancroft. A bit pricey with nice views of the town.

Drew Boughton

Great spot just off of 28 with views of the river located close to downtown Bancroft. Excellent food friendly staff.

Tonisha Marshall

Amazing food, great service!

John B

Awesome falafel wrap

Colin Venus

Had a very good salad, portions are very large. The location is great and the space is beautiful.

Robin Jones

Perfect food - awesome staff.

Kelley White

Service is hit or miss. Granite burger is the best thing on the menu.

James Forde

Always great food and excellent service

Colin Hughes

The best burger was excellent. The patio was hot and the beer cold.

Lou Anderson

Dissatisfied this visit. Dont like reheated French fries. Coffee was extremely strong. Hopefully improved for next visit

Carolyn Bean

Awesome. Just awesome. Great food, good service, beautiful location.

Emily Graves

I wanted to visit the Granite mostly because I want to write an honest review and receive a witty response from the owner. I ended up having the best experience. The food was phenomenal and the staff were amazing! My only negative comment would be that I didn’t get to meet the people behind the review responses. Maybe next time ????????

Janet Bufton

A good, reliable stop on our way to Haliburton. Service is always good, their wings are great, and if the bugs aren't too bad they've got a great patio. On our last visit the menu had changed and they wings were a bit smaller than I think they normally are, but they were still very tasty.

Grace Conroy

Amazing food and even better service! We had to get the recipe for the baked brie to try at home because it was so good!

Anthony Brice

Good food and good service.

Renaissance Woman (Panna)

So glad we decided to chose to visit this place.Loved the ambience loved the food and the super sweet waitress Kelly. We ordered 3 dishes all 3 were a hit.The fish was so well done(I don't know how it was super juicy soft yet nicely done) My pulled pork (yum! Reminded me of Germany that's were I enjoyed my previous one) We ordered the third burger with bacon but we said jus to exclude the beef patty they were kind enough to lower the price. Kelly offered us this house made blue cheese dip(was to die for) Overall it was a great Sunday lunch in a beautiful town.

Emily Mihok

Excellent food, great selection. Friendly and responsive staff. Love going here!

Sylvain Beauvais

Good food and excellent service. Lunch menu a bit on the expensive side but still deserves 5 stars.

Kristy Majoran

I had the best experience ever at The Granite ! Greeted within a minute of walked in, and seated 30 seconds after that. Our server was very kind and sociable, and even assisted us in “credit card roulette.” Food was amazing, drinks were delicious! Will definitely return to this positive and peaceful environment!

Frank C

Great food, nice variety.

Oliver Ralph Karl Zielke

Pretty boring "Canadian" fare, wings, burgers, deep fried appetizers. Overpriced. Nice room, though.

Can Kerse

Patio is perfect for us and for our dog. Even they did not forget to bring some water for her. Very kind .

Liz Maffett

Meal was very tasty, portion size was good! Would have given 5 stars, except both glasses of water I was given had bits floating in them and my boyfriend found a piece of what seemed to be aluminum paper in his stir fry!

Ben Mynott

Good food.

M G

The halibut was overdone, the slaw too salty, the side salad too much dressing, the coffee luke warm... The fries were good. The service was ok, not great, but apparently they were understaffed. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, or the head chef had the day off...

Cabin-luvr 279

Great service, nice decore etc ... Food was average.

Dianne Mangal

Yummy burger and great service

Eliav Levy

Pricey, okay food, huge portions

Lora Merisi

The food was delicious! The service was excellent! Will definitely be returning and recommending this place!

Kelster Von Shredster

Great patio with great view, food was very good and so was service.

Irene Piotrowicz

Perfect spot to stop and have lunch!

Swati Dixit

Great food. Lovely staff. Thank you Esther

Scott Naulls

We go quite a lot for wing night. Last time we had burgers. Very good

Eric Gilmour

The parking lot is a disaster, be very careful parking there, I'd avoid it if you have a sedan (or hatchback)

Mark S

Good service fair food

Grants Bancroft

Great wings every Tuesday night!

jeff Fisher

One of my favorite patios. Food fantastic and service always great. Highly recomend this place. We go whenever we can.

Sadik Aale Mohammed

Delightfully friendly staff and great food. I don't remember the servers name but she did mention that her husband loves the blackened halibut. That lady was extremely helpful and a delight to talk to. To top it all off, the place has great food. We had nachos at the start and then halibut, shrimps, falafel and mussels. Every single item was exceptionally tasty!

L Sonnen

Mediocre food. Fairly quick.

Michael Sanders

Was a great little stop in town for a nice meal and a great view of downtown Bancroft. Staff were kind and attentive. Would recommend!

Douglas Terry

Nice restaurant, with fast food service and large portions. Not many good options for food driving near Bancroft but this is one I would visit again.

Amber Moyes

Friendly staff and very accommodating to new moms ???????????? delicious food and would highly recommend!

Gemma Pastor

We found this elegant place on our trip to Bancroft for my birthday... it was a nice cozy place. Live music.

Paul Sclippa

Great food and service. We sat out on the patio and it was an amazing view. Reasonably priced with great quality food. Kids menu available as well.

Earl Liverseed

Great entertainment and food

Denise Apple

Amazing staff and fabulous food!

Mathieu Mourez

Our big group of 5 was turned away at 20:01 "because the kitchen closes at 20:00". Wow. Who closes their kitchen at 20:00 on a Saturday? Who turns down this revenue when it is literally seconds late, in an industry that is supposedly "struggling" because of CoVid? I feel sorry for the owners and the tipped front of the house to have such lazy kitchen staff.

Laurie Kane

Very nice waitress and bathrooms looked clean. I've never tried a rubber falafel, but if you want one, go here...only $16

Adam J

Good sledding pitstop Kaitlyn was super nice and provided really good service ????

Mike Lerman

Great chicken fingers! Great California salad too.

Reza

Good food and good service

Erin Hicks

So unforffunat that this restaurant has lost the atmosphere we loved. No mussels.

Helder Gameiro

Very accommodating. Great food. The menu has something for everyone A nice stop in Bancroft

Scotty B

Wonderful experience!

David Paolini

Fast, pleasant service for my first-ever visit to Bancroft Ontario. The Granite has a surprisingly eclectic menu and craft beers on tap. Affordable too! Only complaint was men's washroom. Clean but overly dark. No need for the ambience of small chandelier lighting in a washroom honey--us seniors with bad eyesight want safety first. Maybe just up the light bulb luminosity. I'll be back, regardless!

Roline Powers

Great food, friendly staff, great entertainment ????

Dan Mouck

Excellent place. Nice but good for cozy dining too. Service was great. Food was fantastic.

Robert Ramsdale

Friendly staff, great food and espresso. Chill atmosphere and patio.

Jason Joseph

From arriving in Bancroft, I was told by a client that i must have a meal there and so o did. The Granite has a very friendly / comfortable atmosphere. Food is priced Ok, meal selection ok as well. They've got a few signature items I went with the Granite Burger. Very good. Would definitely go back and recommend !

Platinum Studios

The Granite is absolutely amazing Prices are decent employees and management are very knowledgeable and professional but do seem a little tired or overworked. This location seems to hire a little older employees and not teenager's and that makes for a very enjoyable experience with less stress and anxiety especially while they are busy. We highly recommend this location for everything food as it's always fresh and always inviting. Duane Latest Mix International Instagram @latestmix

John Brook

Thanks for the recommendation Jill Price. Excellent food and the service was great.

Johanne Prince

A good sitting space outside. Waiters were courteous and friendly. I found it a bit pricey but the food was good!

Deborah Roberts

Excellent salad, delightful ambience and entertaining server. Well done!

Michael Schmidt (mjsoctober)

Great place for good burgers! Friendly staff, lots of seating, and nice patio/deck. They have live music some nights, and do parties.

Kim & Thomas McLeod

The service was wonderful. Very friendly and a nice comfortable atmosphere. We will definitely be returning

Sandra LaRocque

I would expect the restaurant itself to be less diner and more worthy of the prices they charge. $5 for 6 little mushrooms. Could scrape gunge off the table with my nail. Walls are marked and gouges were visable. Service was very good though and if the owners are concerned about what I have outlined above they might still be around in another 5 years. Brutal I know but the restaurant business is fickle. Was my 1st visit and 1st impression.

Phil Chao

Found this place on google with decent reviews so thought I'd give it a try. Let's start with the bad: the appetizers were not good at all. Edible but not tasty. The mussels were frozen and tasted old, but the sauce was ok. The bread stick for dipping in the sauce was good! The firecracker shrimp was not good at all, the sauce made it bearable but the shrimp was also frozen and flavourless. The star of the night was the prime rib. Very fresh cut and cooked to perfection. The au jus was good and the mashed potatoes were freshly made with real potatoes. The service was amazing, the wait staff was always refilling our waters and checking up on us. The service is what kept this review from being a 3. Please make better appetizers and this would have been a 5 star review. Thanks for a good experience!

Scarey FX

Now this was some good eating. Service was very good, food was excellent and great timing. All 6 gents at our table enjoyed their dish, even the fire breather burger had some heat behind it!

Gerb Ding

I’ve had some really varied experiences here. The first few times I went with my family we all loved the food. The two times after that however we were left disappointed. I haven’t been in a few years so I probably can’t give the most accurate review, but my family won’t eat here any more. I hope they’re improved their standards because they have the potential to be excellent.

Anna M

Really great experience. Attentive staff, good selection on the menue. Food was really well done. Best fries! Thank you! Joycee was great.

Pam Aggelakos

Enjoyed a delightfully relaxing meal at the Granite. I had the Falafel wrap. It was delicious. My husband had a California wrap. He enjoyed it. The parmesan root vegetable fries stole the show. They were scrumptious. Staff were friendly and the place was clean.

Lori Roberts

Had a ceasar salad. Lots of lyrics and dressing. Minimal croutons (2) with some bacon. Not very exciting. Onion petals were ok. Needed lots of dip. Also the place smelled like cleaning solution. Very pleasant staff.

Nancy Prete, Real Estate Sales Representative

First time here, not sure if we will be back. Food is delicious! Service is horrible. Let me share a bit about our experience tonight. We walked in and were greeted with a friendly smile and were told there were no tables inside only on the patio and it's getting chilly as it is dusk meanwhile, we could see a table for 6 available right by the stairs. So we proceeded to the patio and walked by another empty table for 4. After we ordered our drinks and apps the sun completely set and the wind started picking up so we asked again to move inside and the original table we first saw was the one they moved us to. We read a ton of reviews about the "best sweet potato fries" which held up to the reviews however a very small disappointing portion for $9.00. Not at all impressed. My friend ordered a side salad with her wings, it never arrived. She was also asked if she preferred blue cheese or ranch...which also never arrived. Our water was never refilled and the server never came back once to check on us, she brought the food and that was it, we never saw her again. I had to fill my own water myself, twice, with the silver pitchers on the bar beside my table. Like I said the food is fantastic, so if you don't mind poor service with good expensive food, then you will enjoy your meal here.

Piotr P

Great food, friendly staff and also live music. Highly recomend!

Iffat H

The food was delicious and the portion sizes are huge. I found the place to be a little pricey. But the service was good. Our server was really nice and sweet.

Heather Bonas

Sooo good. Food was outstanding, had the Blackened Halibut and Beef tenderloin - both were excellent. Kaitlyn (sp) provided great service with great food and drink suggestions. Great vibe made even better with solo acoustic guitarist - great evening - highly recommend.

Frank Mills

Great food, great service

Earl Bennett

Great atmosphere and service. Delicious lunch.

Godwin Thambithurai

Order the steak with onions and mushroom. Excellent all around. Only one wish...wish the steak knife was sharper. That is not why the 4 star rating

Tracie Watson

Way overpriced and the food is average. But the owners...my daughter worked her them Disgusting people Horrible Unimaginable treatment

Adrian and Tori Capes

Nice place...the granite burger and salad was pucker. Good food nice fast service.

Jane Steeves

Nice restaurant good food

Alex LeNeve

Excellent food, awesome atmosphere, and super friendly staff.

T Smal

Great food and fair pricing for the quality! You have to pay for good food and they deliver on this. The atmosphere is also great.

Yulia Silkin

Very slow service, had to ask for water 3 times. Food was very overpriced for quality. Had a $18 burger that was at best, $8

mark lytle

Nice patio, great attentive friendly service and good food. Burger and sesame chicken both were good.

Dean Buist

I'd go back for sure. Good food and service. Friendly staff.

Sarah Orr

Deb McLean

Excellent food and service!!

Donna Brown

Great service...great food ❤️

Asha Awada

The best place to go for a fancy dinner! The food is always amazing & everyone is always nice and respectful! The parking area could be bigger but that's the only downfall!

Vanessa Dunne

Absolutely delicious!! We had the California salad, the firecracker shrimp, the fried onion petals and nachos. Everything was a 10/10. Portions were large, flavour in everything was awesome! Will definitely come back the next time we are in Bancroft!

Jesse Tonack

Small portions. Overpriced. However not many options in bancroft. Nice setting. Great service. Try the ribs.

Nancy McQuaid

Good food. Good location. Friendly staff.

Kiera Austin

Great food and service I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family

Olivier Notebaert

(Translated) Staff very good, nice terrace. We can not say that the dishes we tasted are exceptional but it was ok. (Original) Personnel très bien, belle terrasse. On ne peu pas dire que les plats que nous avons dégusté soient exceptionnels mais c'était correct.

Mike Januszewski

Great food and entertainment! Never been disappointed.

P Best

We had a wonderful retirement party at The Granite this week! Because of the pandemic we had to keep our group within limits. We were all so happy to see each other... We were loud and happy! The food was great and came quickly. Lonnie was an amazing server. She was patient and very efficient which made our party a great success! Thank you very much Lonnie!!

brad bolton

Excellent!!!

If you are ever in Bancroft, you have to check out this place. Amazing food and friendly staff. Portions were so large, I had to ask for a to go container. Will definitely go back before I leave. I'm not a huge pasta fan but ordered their pasta as per my server's recommendation and trust me, that dish did not disappoint. It was delicious. Everything we ordered was fantastic.

Lyndsay Woolridge

Staff were so friendly, attentive, and super accommodating for our party of 16! They even brought out water for our dog. Food and drinks were great - The Granite burger was definitely a group fave!

George Kuehnbaum

Lovely evening on the patio. Ribs were delicious as was dessert. Good selection of drinks. Wait staff was excellent, attentive but not intrusive. Only negative was lack of lighting when darkness fell.

Located in Bancroft. If you ever cross by, or looking for a place to eat, this is a place to definitely stop at. A while back in the summer a group of us had come across this place, we were not disappointed. The employees where pleasant, we sat out in the patio. We did have to wait a bit for our food but that's pretty understanding with being a busy time of the season, but it was worth the wait! The food was absolutely delicious and dessert really hit the spot. We had ordered pasta, and Thai, everyone kept complementing on how flavour full and good there meal was. If you have room for dessert, go for it . . . The dessert in the picture was: Lava Cake and Spanish Coffee. It really was a; "Big taste from a tiny place."

Michele Van Ryn

Delicious food, excellent, friendly service!!

Rob Simpson

Had a fantastic prime rib dinner after riding all day. Even came with a Yorkshire pudding! Nice assortment of veggies although you can’t see them because they are buried under the huge slab of meat. Six of us parked our ATVs and stopped for dinner on the patio. Very ATV friendly; located right at the trail. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Mary Wellard

Good service. Yummy food.

Joe Sherry

Great food. Fantastic service.

Deanna Rothwell

Another delicious lunch on our way through Bancroft. Food is always delicious and staff always excellent.

Peter Milas

Ordered take out, food was fine however the portion size of the appetizer was very poor. I returned in person to bring this to the attention of the owner. His response lacked any concern nor was any remedy offered. Needless to say I will not return considering we live nearby or would I recommend this place to friends under current management.

Scott Gougeon

Awesome burgers!!

Andrew Stapleford

Food was good. I had the Fire Breather Burger (not as hot as advertised).

Jackie Mayhew

Outstanding food, service and attitude. We had a party of 24 for our son's wedding rehearsal party Sept 9th. Ever detail was attended to with excellence and the pasta and salad buffet was outstanding. Thank you so much. You helped make our evening perfect!

Mike Baker

Good food, great patio. Always love their wings plus a few other things on the menu, definitely worth a stop. Best poutine in the country, amazing fish and chips. For small town Bancroft we are so lucky to have this gem. Very popular so can get very busy in the summer so don't be in a rush. Great spot.

Michael Killingsworth

Diana Carlesimo

Amazing food and atmosphere !!! I definitely suggest the steak or burger !!!

Margaret Burkholder

It's great! Every time!

Scott Huntley

Unfortunately I am unable to comment on the quality of the food as the service was terrible. We waited over 40 minutes as other customers came and were served only to be presented with a sad little Old Fashioned that was not prepared properly. We cancelled our order before we could be further disappointed.

cuneyt uykur

Good selection of food. Nice live music. Enjoyed our dinner

Wanna go For a rip bud

Ashley was an awesome waitress 1st time here. My wife and I both enjoyed our meals. Food was quick, fresh, and delicious. Our desert was amazing. Price was reasonable for quality we received. We will brag to others about this place. Right on the ofsc sled trail. Hope to come here by sled next time . Thanks again for the amazing service . We will be back one way or another.

Kristoffer Cox

Great food and service. Nice outdoor patio to eat on.

Dan Long

Excellent food, very friendly staff and environment. They let me sit and wait for a friend for almost 2 hours and did not give me a hard time at all, overall it's a restaurant I would go to all the time if I could

Shaelene McInnis

Free fidget spinner with kids meal.what a great idea as we are about to do a 2 hour drive. Food is exceelent. I had parm truffle wings. Food was excellent for the price and we will definitely be back.

Great meal and service

Remi Pulwer

Quite $$$ but nice service

Steven L

Don't take this place for granite. Pulled pork was great

Richard Bowers

Excellent service,good food Long time customer

George T

Nice wait staff. Unfortunately it was overpriced for a small town and off season too. $175 for lunch for 4 people! Owner seems to think $44 per person for lunch is acceptable! Food was okay but over salted for my dish with a strange use of wasabi on the blackened Halibut which was overpowering and awful. I didnt want Sushi and don't believe it was listed in menu description. My wife's pasta with chicken was not fresh chicken. Tasted previously frozen. For the price point they can do better.

Cheryl Gough

This restaurant is well worth the visit! The atmosphere was welcoming. The staff was friendly. The food was delicious. Overall outstanding experience. Was far from home on our motorcycles and were welcomed with opened (air conditioned) arms ????. Would travel back there again!

Nicole Fillmchuk

Food was good and our waitress was quite nice, as well as the lady who seated us. We sat on the patio and luckily we got there before the line up at 6 on a Thurs. Overall nice experience.

E H

I came to this lovely place today. The staff were wonderful in everyway possible. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, I was thoroughly impressed to say the least. All the drinks were made perfectly. The apps were extremely tasty. The main meal (fish and sweet potatoes chips) I have never had such mouthwatering, crispy breaded fish before like this place! The delicious Pumpkin Crème Brûlée is a must. Portion sizes were great, we had left overs. The atmosphere was delightful, the music choice was perfect for lunch. This restaurant is a MUST STOP, when going through Bancroft.

Kim Choy-Ouellette

Food was delicious ????????????

Great Wings! Very comfortable atmosphere

Janet Williams

Good food, good prices

Darlene Reynolds

Very nice

Sunita Y

Good food, and great view if you sit on their patio

Aleksandra Huntley

I wish I could say that it was excellent, I was looking forward to my wedding celebration in this restaurant, I have even driven from Ottawa for the weekend for a little getaway with my husband. We went there one evening as walk-ins as I was told over the phone that they did not take reservations and was seated only to be ignored for 45 minutes. Other people that came after us were served right away and it seemed that we were just not good enough for the service to be provided. What a shame.

Chuck Phillips

Great tasty food and great service!!

Sam Schevers

Great food and service

Bill Bean

Awesome as always

Madison Sunray

Staff is alway friendly and food is great!

Orsolya Finesz

We were in Bancroft for the weekend and decided to get takeout from here and we’re not disappointed! We had the wings, nachos and halibut- all were amazing, especially the wings. Outside of the food, I have to commend the owner of granite on their responses to some of the stupid and unrealistic comments on Google reviews????. See you next time Granite!

Adam Albanese

Amazing food, amazing service!

Marie E

Service was good, music was awesome food was meh. Over priced, under delivered.

julio villalta

The Granite burger is a must have. Live music on weekends.

Marc Demers

I had the butter chicken. It was very good. We were a group of 7. Lots of space provided inside. Music on the patio. Friendly service.

Brian Orser

My wife and I really like "The Granite"! Although this is only our second visit as we pass through Bancroft on the way home, we have never been disappointed with the food or the service. The pulled pork is to die for and love it with the coleslaw on top.

Bradley Gosselin

Awesome patio. Crazy fish and chips. Decent prices. Great service.

Jamie Busby

Mmmm chicken wings. Nuff said....

Diane Newdick

Really good food and excellent service. Portion size was huge! California salad was delicious and onion petals are my new favourite!

John clodge

Great food and service

Al Sutherland

Great food, good menu, nice place. Probably a little nicer than snowmobilers should be in, but they were happy with us on the bar side. Fairly expensive, but worth it. Nice to eat at something other than a pub.

Tia Dawn Graham

Always great service and something on the menu to suit your cravings. Also a unique stop because of the craft beers they offer on tap (a few rotating one's like Muskoka Brewery's Moonlight kettle monthly brew)

Mike Howe

Dropped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised at the very friendly service and excellent food. Will definitely be back!

Mike Mills

I had the ginger chicken and it was probably the best I have ever had. Would highly recommend it.

Becky H

Great service! Good food! Consistent! Recommend for sure!

Kyle Huggins

Was in town for 2 weeks for a job and unfortunately didnt try this place until the last night. Got a burger and poutine and holy - was it ever good. Burger was one of the best ive ever had from a restaurant. Thanks for the effort and reliability pals! Ill see ya again next time im back up here. I know where to go now.

Tracy MacDonald

Love the food and staff is is great.

sue stark

Love this place, although a little on the more expensive side. They've got some unique menu items like the the falafel burger. Over all great food and atmosphere!

Gordon Trotter

Decent food, nice atmosphere and the waitress was really friendly

Steve Watson

Good food. Great service. Does not accept American Express. Business expense is easier with Amex.

Decima Butler

Great food with fantastic service

T cleland

Service is always good. I travel a lot and the food ( pub fare) is as good or better than 90% of the high end places one would visit anywhere in North America.

Austin Ferguson

It was good food but expensive.

J Droz

Amazing food, great service. Definitely will go again.

Ron Parkinson

tanmick263

Not like it use to be

stephanie henderson

A huge thank you to Brendan and Christine and staff for helping to create an amazing birthday celebration last evening. The menu , as always, superb, the ambiance delightful and our hosts charming and accommodating. A five star evening!!!!!!!

Grant Rowland

Picked up some take out food. Everything was great! Firecracker shrimp was a great app, and the granite burger was very tasty. I was a bit sceptical about takeout, as it's a 30 min drive home, but taking that into consideration, it was the best takeout I've had in many years, from anywhere. Well done Granite!

William Neil

Great burger. Lamb was great

Richard S

Excellent service good selection of food including gluten free,and reasonable prices.

Paul

Great assortment of food and a nice sized patio

Darah Kearney

Great spot with awesome atmosphere. The stuffed chicken and sirloin were delicious. Scalloped potatoes were prime ????. Our waitress seemed inexperienced yet pleasant, earnest, and eager to do a good job. The only negative thing in the entire experience was the plastic "glass" I was served my long island iced tea in. It had the right shape but I would maybe drop the plastic drinkware for indoor dining. Thanks for the experience. My fiancé and I had a lovely evening.

Matt Card

The food was excellent, the service went above and beyond (they even brought water for our dog), and the atmosphere was welcoming and enjoyable. Small town charm with a surprisingly diverse menu. Will definitely be back.

Peachy Diva

The staff was really friendly and professional. The food was really good and the dessert was excellent! We would certainly go back.

Eileen Lockhart

We visited The Granite tonight for dinner with our friends. Food and service was suburb. We ordered Cheese Tortellini with Chicken, Cheese Tortellini with Shrimp, Granite Burger and California Club Wrap. The staff member that greeted us at the door was very professional while obtaining vaccination information and friendly in seating us to our table. Our server was very personable and addressed all of our specific menu questions. We will definitely return again.

jenny beaudrie

UPDATE: how INCREDIBLY IGNORANT of you respond to me calling me names. I came in with my family wanting to spend my hard earned money in your establishment, to be seated in a dingy corner after a 10 minute wait? Nice customer service. Waited 10min for them to clean tables...walked out once she put us at the worst spot in the place.

Andrew Hall

Super food and friendly service on a long drive where many restaurants are only open seasonally. Typical pub fare but very well presented.

Tyler Durden

Great food. Good service. Consistent. Lunch or dinner.

Becky Rahn

Stopped randomly on our way through town. Got a patio table right away. Server (Logan) was great, quick drinks and food. Server was also very responsive and checked on us during the meal. Definitely recommend! We both enjoyed our meals too :-)

Will Wells

We will be back. I had the flame thrower burger. It was served on a home made bun and burger. The heat was perfectly balanced with the BBQ sauce i was very impressed. Server was fun and friendly service was fast. THANKS GRANITE staff

Charlotte Pearson

Very yummy and very filling!!!

Melissa Lima

My boyfriend and I came here for our anniversary dinner, it was our first time at the restaurant. Our food was delicious, I recommend the beef tenderloin. Unfortunately the service was not as great! It took them half hour to bring our appetizer after we had been seated. We had to ask the status, of our food before it was brought to us. Shortly after our entrees followed, we had asked for drinks which we never received. I would gladly return for the food, if the wait staff has improved.

Marilynn Roch

Went for dinner with 4 family members. Sat on the patio on a beautiful summer day. Food was great. Portions large. Had to bring some home. They were very accommodating with food allergies. Our server Kaytlin was awesome!!! Would highly recommend!

Tina Phillips

Great food nice atmosphere

Leah Live

Excellent food. 3 of 4 had burgers that were thick and juicy. I had the best blackened halibut ever. It was sooo good. Great service and a great stop out sledding or any outting.

Best meal we’ve had in a year. Simple food made well. Granite burger is a must!
