Great food
Great breakfast!
Home cooking combined with friendly small town service. We had a great time !!
Great place. Nice food. Good service
Good for breakfast ???? and on the run food ???? types fast n affordable
This is a great place to eat. Friendly waitresses quick-service very nutritious food. Great atmosphere. My wife and I visit here frequently. Try it you will not be disappointed
Prompt, excellent service. Knowledgeable server who gave good suggestions. She was friendly and nice. Hot, fresh, delicious food! Our table had liver with bacon and onions, Fettuccine Alfredo (which was creamy not watery) and as for moi, I had lasagne with Ceasar salad as my starter. My salad had lots of real bacon on it and had the perfect amount of dressing (usually at other restaurants I have to ask for more dressing it is too dry). Great establishment, great portion size, great menu options! I'm impressed... Lindsay has some good restaurants...watch out Oshawa you got some competition!
Yummy
Friendly staff and great food
Prime rib was amazing
Busy place
Very well managed during this covid 19. Great selections and 2 of our party of 3 had the Reuben and best I've had in ages. We were well served by Wendy and will definitely be back and refer this place.
Honestly like this old style restaurant. Simple menu with most hot plate items expected on it. Tues. And Sat. They have roast turkey. Consistant quality for the most part but have had a few issues that were handled with no problem.
I got the meatloaf... it tasted good but was very very very dry and chewy
Great place
Good meal
Bad food, bad service. Breakfast potatoes were deep fried and bland, nothing seemed fresh. Waitstaff was just rude. Will not return.
Garlic bread was burnt spaghetti was soupy. I was there before Christmas with my father and brother ( I'm sorry for them , they are always like that, I don't live with either of them) spaghetti was still good, great flavor, and the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere. I will be back, minus my father and brother, but I don't think I'll order the garlic bread again
Good portions. Washrooms are needing update
Went there for lunch Service is excellent, waitstaff is extremy good at what they do Food is good, though I found the turkey dinner to be enough for my appetite at that time, it wouldn't have been enough for an actual dinner The turkey stir-fry thing they have is excellent and quantity was great too
This place was a joke. Waitress was an old crusty lady that coughed all over our table and couldn't handle the most basic tasks. For example: what is the soup today? Not a trick question.. I had the ALL DAY breakfast around 3pm, I'm pretty sure that sausage and bacon literally sat there ALL DAY. Good thing I didn't order it after 4pm lol. They charge an extra $1.50 for that complicated request :). Don't get me started on the 80's decor, dirty floors, disgusting bathrooms. Guess I should have expect that when our laminated menu became our placemat lol fml.
Had a great dinner.
Had the veal parm with spaghetti. Good portion and tasty.Good service.????
Reasonable price and always consitant food, good!!
Food and service excellent would recommend this resturant good food good service. Visit when you get a chance.
Beef patties contain more sawdust than meat, not happy with hot hamburger platter Advertises all day breakfast but won't let you get it? Crazy
very busy lunch rush, food was good, will return

Loved it
Our waitress was great and our breakfast was good
Food is always good here waitresses are amazing friendly people restaurant is always clean the usually busy the only problem with this restaurant is there always slow to bring your food you are lucky if you can order and get your food in less than 45 minutes if you're not in a rush the food here is delicious
Local restaurant in the mall. Good place for breakfast and dinner. Good service and reasonable prices.
Great family restaurant. Fanstic food great service. Price is right. Lots fun with my family & friends on sunday breaky. Thant. You neabors
Ok
Excellent food and great service!
Very good, very friendly
Always loved Neabors. Bill and Joanne are amazing. The staff is amazing. The food is amazing. And prices are incredible. Such a treat eating there.
After years of avoiding the place do to a bad experience I thought I would try again. The service was bad and it was way to dark for brunch and if you were thinking of relaxing, don't. Your food will be cold before you put down your phone. And who charges extra for cold rye toast? Plus it seems that if you are a regular over seventy you get served first. Watching two other tables have there order taken upon entry while you and your gross coffee grow cold is a good indication things will not improve.
Quaint and cozy, good for a family dinner
Good service this time around and a good selection of menu items.
Great breakfast!! Full plate and mary the waitress was very friendly and helpful. Bravo to bill and staff.
I took my family who are visiting from Sweden to this restaurant for lunch .We waited approximately 15 minutes and during that time was told by the waitress that she would be with us in a minute she then preceded to chat with the other customers who had the finished there meal. When we finally attracted her attention to place are order she told us she would be with us when she could as she was very busy. Her tone of voice was very aggressive and we told her we were leaving and she obviously didn't care. I then complaint to the manager regarding the waitresses attitude and she also didn't seem to care. I have been a long time customer at this restaurant. However based on my last 2 experiences with the same waitress I will never go back.
Great food very nice personal service
Halibut fish was great.
Good service, food servings ample Pleasant ambiance and service
Great food and service.
I remember going here with my grandma everytime I got to stay with her growing up. It was her favourite and only breakfast she’d take me to. I lost her to cancer 5 years ago and haven’t gone since...I was missing her tonight and thought of our memories here and hoped it was still open. I’m so glad it still is. We always loved it here and it’s now a part of very special memories to me. I live hours away but if I can find the courage to come back I know it will be worth the drive. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for keeping the same cosy environment I remember ( judging by photos posted here ).
Friendly staff, good food nice atmosphere
Good meal good service.
Their "famous" prime rib was a piece of raw beef that was fried. It was undercooked and still had fat on it that had never been cooked. The baked potato was hard from sitting in a steamer for so long. And the pie was in an individual shell that looked like the filling had been half eaten and then refilled by scooping filling into it.
Excellent food well return many times
Wonderful hidden gem. Food is always great. Could use a makeover but besides that, great food, generous portions and friendly staff.
This is the third time we went there for supper. We both had the special. Roast pork with apple stuffing, gravy, French fries, mixed veggies and a side of apple sauce. The service was excellent, food was hot and delicious. We did not like the mixed veggies, as they were way over cooked. Tasted like canned, not fresh. The only problem is the kitchen. It seems to take forever to cook the food, but it is Usually very hot and delicious and large servings. The meal, drinks and tip for 2 came to under $60. I noticed they have a seniors menu on the reverse side. Same menu, smaller servings, lower prices. Maybe try it next time.
Great homemade food and great service. Love this pkace.
Just enjoyed the turkey special which was ???? what really blew my mind was the coconut pie for dessert. Best pie hands down. Don't know where I put it all but it was amazing!
Very clean , nice staff and delicious breakfast
ABSOLUTELY the best breakfast around ...I always bring my friends here from out of town and never disappoints ..the staff are very nice and attentive which is why I always tip good ...????
Had a great breakfast Thursday.
Absolutely wonderful service, friendly faces and always a lovely time!
This Hidden Lil Gem is hidden in the heart of Lindsay behind the Square Mall. If you haven't tried this place, then you are missing out! The Restaurant is a bit dated with its appearance, however the service was excellent and friendly. The food where do I start, Salisbury Steak was great, the different types of flavors on the plate was worth the wait. Mashed potatoes were really not chunky or liquidity just perfect. Alfredo (sorry son wouldn't let me take a photo) Was homemade sauce thick noodles comfort food at its finest. Lasagna I have high standards for this & this met with them even went slightly over them. Best in Ontario! The sauce to noodles were on key, the cheese Omg the taste mixed with the perfect amount of spices were pairing hypothesis. The temperature was hot like steam with each mouth full. Every bite was delightful & brought you to wanting more. The taste was luscious ... Great cooking is about being inspired by the simple things around you — fresh markets, various spices, people and taste Hats off to the Chefs that made tonight's food. Dessert was successful the moment you close your eyes and really taste the flavors. Great Baker ... I would give the restaurant 5 stars, but the bathroom was your only downside do the ceilings and give me an invite back it will be worth 10 stars . Large Quantity, Excellent Quality Fair time, Great prices, Great location Great. Thanks for the scare & Laughs tonight!
Legendary food and service. Their homemade Ice tea is truly one of a kind, certainly not what you'll find in the city.. Friendly service. Good prices. Healthy choices. Willingly drive 1hr+ to eat here. Try this restaurant today!
Always a great meal.
Great food and service
Excellent
Good food, fair prices, great service.
Home cooked food to satisfy your taste buds, oh and leave room for pie!!
We had dinner here a few months ago and it was really terrible, but thought we would give this place another chance for breakfast. Food was good, hot and delivered quite quickly. Portion was huge, waitress was polite and price not too bad. Do not like the décor at all, too dark and dated but all in all it was acceptable. Would probably go back, but for breakfast only.
Just fine. Brass rails nice lighting. Affordable average portion average selection
Service
Great food done in house Excellent friendly service
Disgusting food, always cold. I went there on a Friday night and they were teaching a new chef. 2 hours for my food. We walked straight out after an hour. Don't waste your time here.
Love it. Good food good service!
Great tasting gluten free options
I have been going to Neabors Restaurant since I was just a kid . I had my first wedding anniversary there as well as my Christmas turkey dinner with my wife. The staff are very pleasant to deal with and the food is incredible. If you are looking for a nice home cooked meal at a great price, this is your spot . Turkey Tuesday paired up with a delicious pie dessert is an absolute 10/10 HIGHLEY RECOMMEND
My favorite restaurant in Lindsay, wide selection of food, comfortable friendly environment. Even better once Covid ends.
Hey this place is alright! The food was pretty good, we had breakfast. The only thing that wasn't great was the generic, frozen, fried homefries, the décor, and the fact that we had to wait 10+ minutes to be seated. Service was good though. Nice place. I'd love it if they'd reno!
Ham was cold on grilled cheese and ham sandwich
Great food and service!

Best veal sandwich
Great meal and friendly servers..
Good food friendly service
Friendly, warm and inviting. Staff are wonderful. Food is down home cooking.
My mom & I have been here quite often; we had used to come here shortly before I started dating my boyfriend a couple years ago (I haven’t been with Him yet though, Next week, we shall. Around my Birthday then perhaps.) They have a regular menu, and Also, a Gluten Free menu! And “All-Day Breakfast”! Yum. Here’s a couple pictures I’ve got from a bit far-back in my camera-roll on my phone (actually turned out to be within the last couple years). A downfall of this place: Their lighting. It’s fairly dark in the restaurant, with..floors lights? I think...anyways, it’s dark, and not particularly complimentary unfortunately. It’s in a good, local spot. Right near the town of Lindsay “Mall”. There’s a driver’s testing nearby, so it could be a good Gluten Free spot for people coming from areas like Toronto. Except for the lighting. My guess is it’s because they get a lot of Seniors as their customers, by what I’ve noticed.
Good service, server was excellent. Food is good
Just dropped in for coffee and coconut cream pie which is absolutely the best! Friendly staff, great service!
Food was adequate. I think you need to have grey hair to get served properly.
They don’t call it a family restaurant for no reason ;) miss these guys so much! I recommend the Joanne’s Salad and the Prime Rib!
Excellent meatloaf dish, awesome dining for the price good service
The food was awesome and the staff was very friendly. The resturant was spotless. I would go back again and the prices were reasonable. Thanks for great service.
Absolutely delicious breakfast. Food was hot and sooo good. Portion size was great for the price. Establishment was quiet and quaint and service was fantastic. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
Great food and service!
The waitresses are very friendly.
Food wasn't very good and poor service only went once had no desire to go again.
Great people and Good food
Good food, large menu to choose from and very reasonable prices.
Love the Joanne salad!
Was in mall today and peaked inside Has new flooring so i deleted my previous post. Much better????????????????????????
Great good and service
Great food and service.
Usually a very good experience, but Valentines dinner was horrible. Shrimp was dried out tasted like rubber, asparagus were very tough. And hollandaise sauce was so thick it was like mud.
Regularly go for breakfast. Extremely friendly staff great food.
Good food great service and a great environment
OK ???? thanks
We stopped here to enjoy the all-day breakfast, fish and chips and a roast beef dinner. Our family really enjoyed the meal, the quiet setting and the service. We considered getting desert but the server didn't come back to take our order so we didn't. We would love to eat here again if we're in the area.
Love this place. Great food and the service, cleanliness and friendliness of the servers and owners is exceptional. I have never had a bad meal. I would highly recommend the turkey dinner, steak and Prime rib.
Friendly and great food. Old decor and not exactly cheap. But a classic
Great place for a casual tasty meal.
Best in lindsay, I've been eating here for 15yrs there is no better in lindsay period.
Great service
Hubby and I like to stop here for a good breakfast when we come to Lindsay to do some shopping, they have a full breakfast,lunch and dinner menu. Many items can be made gluten free at your request. We've also had lunch items and they have daily specials plus a full array of fresh pies. I haven't tried the pies but based on the yummy meals we've had I'm sure they'd be tasty too. The restaurant is located at the back of the mall, you can enter through the mall or through the side door. Check it out next time your in Lindsay!
Friendly service, Food was OK. Frozen burger from a box. Onion rings were good. Decor and furniture out-dated. Decent experience. Looking forward to seeing the place after the renovations.
Been thinking on posting this for a while. My father used to work there and we were treated great! Been in a few more times with family and no issues treated great, my mom knows the owners very well. However, last time I went in with my significant other, they seated us in the very back by the washrooms (every other patron was seated on that "top level" section), didn't ask us what we wanted to drink only gave us water, took over fifteen minutes to even get our order placed and we knew exactly what we wanted, other customers that came in after were served first, and food was a bit dry. Absolutely disgusted with how we were treated, thank you Bill and Joanne Konkle the fantastic memories as a child. However seeing as how much this business has declined I will never come back to your restaurant. Have a great day.
Didn't care much for the food or service seems geared to older clients
It was very good
Amazing breakfast!!! Amazing service, now my favourite breakfast place!
I normally go here for a home cooked meal in Lindsay, but was disappointed today. Talked to waitress who seemed not to care. Food quality wasn't great for the daily special, wasn't a busy time ; I was discreet with my disappointment. I received an unapologetic if the cuff reply.
Good food and lots of different choices
Friendly staff and delicious home made meals
Fantastic food an service.
This is a real gem that serves home cooked delicious food at affordable prices. It takes a bit of looking to find since it is at the back of the shopping centre on Kent off Commerce Rd.
service and food excellent
Slow
Great fast kind service and fantastic meal could not have asked for a better experience
Good food and service
Not and poutine best combo
I gave this place a 3 star based on my most recent visit only because I know this place can be better. My GF and I ordered the Turkey Club toasted. The toast was burnt for both of ours. The lettuce on hers looked questionable for quality. My GF had fries with her meal and it was way over cooked. The waitress never once asked how our meal was. Yes we could have waived her down and brought this to her attention but it seemed she wasn’t concerned. The overall experience was not a good one. Will try this place again in hopes to have the good experience I know they can provide.
Always good food and friendly staff. Nice quiet casual dining.
Excellent
The food is pretty good for the most part.Would be a 5 star except the below issues Needs carpet cleaning and repairs. I see you chopped my last review. I know you read it. ACTION its a fairly busy resteraunt. Would be even busier
They have the best liver and onions! Great variety and good friendly service.
Nice atmosphere, pleasant staff, reasonably priced
Disapointed ! this was a family favorite but we ran into a lot of changes last sat night. They refused to serve breakfast even though the menu offered it. Not the children friendly place we have come to know and they seemed really put out that we didnt have a reservation. There was 5 of us and they only had 6 tables occupied when we got there with 3 servers.
Plentiful and great service as always.
Good food but bad lighting
Worst restaurant ever! 3 different visits, 3 horrible experiences. First experience: Went in casual clothing, for dinner. The server looked up head to toe multiple times, before even turning to seat us. She treated us horribly for the entire meal. Second experience: Went in for an early dinner with a family member. The restaurant was basically empty. It still took 5 minutes before a server took our order. Right after she put it in, someone she recognized came in, and she chatted with them while taking their order. They happened to order the same thing we did. When our food was ready, it was served to their table, despite them arriving well after us. If it had been a different meal, with a shorter cook time, I could understand, but it was the exact same meal! The final straw: I decided to try breakfast, because clearly dinner service was a failure. I asked to substitute cheesy home fries for regular home fries on one of the menu items. All that was required was to add cheese. I said that I understood if it cost extra, and was more than happy to pay. I was told that that was in no way possible. If I wanted the cheesy home fries, I would need to order the breakfast that included them. The problem was that one of the items in that breakfast was baked beans, something I am allergic to. I agreed to the listed breakfast, but said it was imperative that the baked beans not be added, due to an allergy. She said that would be no problem. When I got my breakfast, baked beans were poured over EVERYTHING! My toast, my homefries, my eggs. When I mentioned it to the server, she rolled her eyes, and got a side plate, slammed it down next to me, and told me to scrape it off. One bad experience could be someone having a bad day. The second could be someone pandering to a friend. The third one had no excuse. I will never go to this restaurant again, and I will proactively tell EVERYONE I know how horrible it is. The day it closes will be the best day in Lindsay.
Welcome back everyone. Wonderful breakfast as always. Amazing staff.
The service and wait time was not very good. But the one thing that really upset me was the high chair they provided for my daughter was HORRIBLE! It was like one you would have at home with the cloth seat. It looked like it had never been cleaned, EVER! It was brown and stained and I was absolutely disgusted by it. Asking for a different one, they provided another one in the same state as the first and the table part to attach was broken or something. I can't believe they had the audacity to look at that and say "yeah, that's okay for a baby to sit in". I ended up putting a blanket on it and just dealing with it. But I just can't believe everyone that works there has seen these and never thought they were a problem. Not one person would come into a restaurant and sit in such filth, I don't know why they think my baby should. I think this is a serious health code violation.
I keep coming back to this place because it makes me feel comfortable. When I called today to check for availability, the lady on the line was so warm and welcoming. "You betcha, see ya soon!" We arrived and they had us reserved for upstairs, but my Mom has a walker so they quickly cleaned a nearby table and got us seated. Great first few minutes! Now for the food. Homemade everything! The mashed potatoes were like my Mom just made them right there! The turkey gravy was downright drinkable! The chicken parmesan was viking sized! My sister is enjoying her second helping as I type this. Our server was so attentive, and used phrases like "you're most certainly welcome" and "my pleasure". I will update my review after I get her name because she deserves credit! It's just a really great place to go and eat. My Mom lives in Lindsay and we try to go here each time we visit. The owner's are clearly doing it right, and it shows in the staff and the food. Well done! Edit; Thanks so much for replying! Please extend my thanks to Jean and her wonderful service! When I got the mini peach blueberry pie home I popped it in the oven for a short time to warm it up. Let me just say I couldn't even speak the entire time I was eating it. The peaches were so fresh, the blueberries popped and there was a creamy, tart filling surrounding the fruit. Out of this world!
Great food and friendly staff always busy
Enjoyed the breakfast
Good food, great staff.
Fair prices, great food and service, pleasant atmosphere. Nice little out of the way place to go.
Great family restaurant great prices and good servings friendly staff
Excellent
Always great food always good service
Great food and service.
Loved the fabulous homemade Coconut Cream Pie! The wings and the garden salad were savory and fresh also. The servers very friendly and attentive.
I often visit this restaurant with my Mom, and we have never had a bad experience yet! Last weekend we had a Birthday Lunch for her with 34 of her family and friends attending. Everyone at the restaurant was very accommodating and pleasant as usual. The food was great, and everyone was served in good timing! I was very impressed with how they handled everything from the moment we called to see if they can handle a large group to the very end of our little get together! Thank you Neabors, we will be back!
Not only was the restaurant clean, following all Covid19 rules, the food was great, and the servers were wonderful. And then to top it all off, they are an honest business. They accidentally charged us too much and called us the next day to let us know! Wow, how many companies would do that!
Nice place to go ... Not a fancy menu , traditional .
Food was excellent, atmosphere was good and our waitress was quick to come and take our drink order once we sat down. Once food was ordered it wasn't a very long wait before we had our food and eating
Everything 3 of us ordered was undescribably delicious. For dessert, the coconut cream pie is homemade and to die for! Our waitress was incredible. 5 outta 5.
Nice breakfast tables well spaced
Large portions... great taste and a nice personable dessert. .. 5 star all the way... RWC TOWING... Chris
As we are new to town (and the area) we have been trying some of the restaurants , and so far the service and staff have been exceptional. Until last Friday (March 3 2017). We thought we would try Neabors, What a Mistake. I don't know if they were short staffed or not , but for god's sake acknowledge people when the come into your establishment. We walked in, stood there a moment, not realizing it was seat yourself. When I made eye contact with one of the staff, she kind of nodded to the empty table right at the door (terrible draft coming in) anyway we waited, and waited. Hmmm. A couple , with children came in and sat at the messy table behind us . The waitress came over , "let me clear that and got them drinks. A couple of elderly gentlemen came in , took a look around (I'm assuming for a table), the girl said , there is an empty table over in the corner , will be right over to clean it off. Once again SERIOUSLY !!!!!! After , somewhere between 12 and 15 minutes , and nobody even acknowledging we were there, my husband and I looked at each other and went "NOPE....WE'RE OUT OF HERE..........don't know what the food is like and probably will never know, I'm just glad we didn't have any guests with us .............
Always quite good..depending in who's cooking. 3pm on is best
Solid service for breakfast or brunch. Couple slices of bacon, eggs sunnyside up and a nice little portion of perfect cooked hash browns - all with a lovely rye toast; served quick and pleasantly. Been in quite a few times, service and food have been consistent.
Love the breakfast
Super nice staff
Always great food and service.
Dine in
Food is always great and great service.
