The atmosphere, seats, food, all in all no comparison to home food. I would not go back unless with a big crowd of wing eaters!

Julie LeBel

Sharla L.

Great food! But took over an hour to get orders from a table of 8! then some of the food was delivered to the wrong table!

Sara Mayhew

I like going here, but the orders are often wrong and the cocktails are watered down or poorly made. Sometimes they have the radio on and it cuts in and out. I WANT to like this place.

Drashti Thakkar

Loved it

Cotnoir Stéphanie

(Translated) Excellent salad and delicious atmosphere (Original) Excellente salade et ambiance délicieuse

george hutchison

Always great service and food

Varun Persaud

Great place to hang with a group and always great service and homemade food. Wing nights on Wednesday (2lbs for $11) is an especially good deal in town and quality brews on tap from northern Ontario breweries keeps things local. Try the Five O clock shadow from full beard and the sleeping giant from northern Brewing company.

Tammy Mitchell

It's our first time in KL & we were looking for a great meal. I mean we're a little picky. It needs to be homemade, clean and attention to detail is important. There were 10 of us and everything that came out of the kitchen was above our expectations.

John Potts

Always a great time with good food and good people.

Julián David Melo

Good food, good prices

Dar R.

Good food and service. Filthy restaurant.

Tyler Rodda

Service was prompt, food was of fair quality. Wife had to ask for parm instead of it being offered. But staff was friendly. Cost was a little on the high side.

Kim Babela

Good place to meet people

Carolyn St-Jacques

Pub restaurant with a pool table, many TV's and a fireplace. The oriental steak salad was awesome!

Dan Johannsson

Can't go wrong stopping at the fed. Friendly staff, pleasant environment, good food and beers at reasonable prices.

Benjamin Madill

Great food!

Dave Pope

Great food and friendly service. We went for lunch, my wife (who is celiac) had the nachos and loved them. She indicated her allergy when we ordered and they checked ingredients for her. I had the Buffalo chicken wrap and it was very good. I ate it too fast so I didn't get a picture.

Tamara Palinka

We waited an extremely long time for 2lbs of wings. In their defense they had a large group there, but they could've offered us a snack or gave us a complimentary item to make up for 1.5 hrs for 14 wings. The staff was very friendly, and the environment was fine. Great little deck outside of you can get a table. Food was par. I've only had the wings.

Kelley Evans

The food was good, but a rather rowdy atmosphere for a weekday

Ordered the small taco salad and it was still quite big! So delicious. Their dill dip is to die for. Also ordered the red sauce mussels which were good too. I would definitely order the same thing again. Food came out fast. Our server was nice and knowledgeable. ????

John Wilkes

The Federal Tavern, AKA The Fed is a neighborhood institution belonging to Kirkland Lake but shared amongst most Northern inhabitants as a hallowed institution. One needs to go there if you have never gone to know why. Every time I step in I see happy people enjoying their spot. St. Patrick's Day was a triumph and not to be missed.

Lee Kmyta

Great local place to get something good to eat

Steven Rogers

Cozy pub. Good wings

Joe C

Horrible customer service.. given i work in the industry and can appreciate the struggles... horrible job guys???????????? half hour for a shooter and missed an entree i ordered thus disrupting the dining party. Not overly impressed but i ca understand somewhat as you were slammed. Definately need more staff on busy days

Kat Litwin

Awesome place. Great staff. Good food.

Josh Webber

good food and staff is friendly, a bit longer wait but better food.

Nick Bezjak

The service was horrible. Took over an hour for an appetiser to arrive. The waitress did apologise when she brought it out, but didn't check on us for the hour between ordering and the app arriving. Mains were 2 wraps. One came out 20 minutes after the app, the other 35. Terrible service.

patricia tinslay

The restaurant seemed empty because of the covid restrictions but the service was excellent and the food was delicious. Although it was not the noisy bustling restaurant I used to know the intimate dinner with family was a really nice experience

Jason Guilly

Great wings since 96

Brad Davidson

Never had a bad meal here. They were out of fish and chips but what can you do? The Philly was great. *Update, after trying their online ordering system, we were told 30 minutes. Almost immediately afterwards we get a phone call stating that it would be an hour and a half. Ok no problem, it's a Friday. Then arrive to pick up food and get told sorry we've been very busy, another 20 minutes. What's the point in doing online if your times don't even come close to each other?

Vivianne Belair

Great food...loved it

Vince Hurrell

Had the burger, wife had a taco salad. Good, reasonably priced fare

Was there on January 30 and let's just say, the place is a blast. I didnt get our waitresses name but she was awesome. Great sense of humor. Made our 1st time going there even better. And she was right, the fish and chips are very good!!! Will be back on our next snowmobile trip.

Mary Laneville

The meal was fresh and great! I had the steak and spinach salad. Nice pub atmosphere. Good varied selection on the menu. Decent prices.

robert st jean

Was in town for one night and looked at this place as a opportunity to have a drink. Called at 1040pm and the business was shutting down. Question the website as indicated open till 2am? not sure how this business can service local or out of town customers.

Was in town on a Friday night and this place was recommended. When we showed up at 10pm, the doors were locked. Not dure if they were renovating or what, it just sucked is all..
