Reviews of Don Cherry's Sports Grill (Restaurant)

Bill Tonge

Great food. Good service. Only one waitress but she kept up very well

Josh Miller

Great cozy sports bar with very friendly service! Riding throw on our motorcycles stopped in for a bite to eat and felt like we were at home.

Sherry King

Will not order from here again everything from wings to garlic bread was burnt even their spaghetti sauce! ????????

Brian d'Eon

Service was decent. However out of six of us, we all agreed the food wasn't worth going back for, especially for the price. Beer selection was domestic only. Decor looked like lots of patchwork.

James Leishman

For how much you will be spending the food should be much better. It's still a nice place to hang our with friends and have a few drinks

Jordan Watkinson

Great service amazing staff and delightful food!

Meghan Kranert

Not bad at all. Good food and you can't beat the drink prices!

Barry Wilkinson

Mediocre pub food. Sterile atmosphere. Won't return.

joan jennings

Good food, too many flies.

Debi Daniels

Awesome chicken parm my go to for sure

Steve Laffan (U save)

The wait staff was friendly. The atmosphere was nice and we just happened to go on 2 for 1 chicken wings night. Next time in Parry Sound we will definitely be back.

K Kelly

We went on wing night. Great deal and delicious wings. Very busy so took a bit to get our food, but server was great!

Jeremy Kennedy

I love the burgers and cherry chips,the wings are delicious and so is the prime rib. The service is very friendly. I enjoy the dining experience and atmosphere.

Velma Ferguson-Tilson

Casual atmosphere, good service. Great wings! Cherry chips are a fav.

Amanda Hilliard

Terrible atmosphere, service and food. Won't be going back to again Don Cherry restaurant again

Wayne Friesen

Good food and great service staff

Jonathan Poole

Avoid the ribs unless you have a jackhammer to tear them away from the bone and a tall drink to wash down the one or two bites you'll try before giving up. Sent the first order back, second order came out in 3 minutes and no better. I suspect rib night was 6 nights ago. Others in my party of 7 enjoyed their meals. Cook should apologize to the pig that died in vain.

Steven Cseko

Food was mediocre and over priced wait time for a burger was ridiculous unless they were slaughtering the cow i. The back then inretract my statement

Phil Klassen

Had a pleasant lunch here. The food was very tasty and the staff pleasant

tim secord

Great atmosphere, if you weren't a regular you were overlooked

Sara Scott

We had a great time. We went in with our family and kids. The baby was being fussy and unruly. The staff were quick to help us and ease the baby. The service was quick and friendly. We will definitely be back. The food was excellent. They have deep fried cheese curds. They were divine.

Luca Gruet

Very good steak and wings.

Matt Chamois

Service was just okay. Pretty slow, and the food was nothing to write home about. I can understand why Don Cherry's are closing if they are all like this one. Too bad because I used to like them.

Caroline Mireault

Dirty. Not real chicken in the Club. Crunchy steak in the wrap.

Latina4Life

Good food, reasonable prices and service

Barbara Langford

Staff are very friendly and professional.

MC Miles

You can't please everyone! I was satisfied with the service. The food is really sports bar menu type but really great. They also offer delivery, with covid it's really useful!! Can't decide what to order? Try the Taster Platter!

Nick Ryeland

Great medium barbeque wings, best I've had in Parry Sound, and a two lbs for price on one on Tuesdays makes it a great deal.

Amy Cook

Very good food and a happy environment

Paige Robinson

Used to be my favourite place to eat! But unfortunately, you are not welcome if you are not liked by any of the staff.. very opinionated place. Awful for customer service! My nephew found a screw in his food once! We were not impressed... but mistakes DO happen I suppose. If customer service was better, I'd give it another chance! Other then that, their food is fantastic. God I miss those wings :( :(

Leah Yang

Wings are fairly tasty, but the service is quite slow. Fries not good /fresh. Price is reasonable.

bruce bowman

Food was good and a decent amount. Price was fair.

Todd Tackerson

Good food, wing night tonight. Service...... could have been better.

Drew Bennett

Exactly what you want in a sports bar. The food is solid (actually better than solid - quite good in fact) the service is prompt and the drinks are cold. The interior is comfortable and boasts almost 2 dozen flat screen TV's - a sports fanatic's dream. I know the owners personally and couldn't be happier with their success with Don Cherry's Sports Grill restaurant. Tim and Alda have worked extremely hard to make their business shine - and it shows. I wish them nothing but the best. Keep up the great work.

Emily Fallavollita

Went for a beer and was very pleased. Our server greeted us right away and provided our beers promptly. Beers were cold and crisp. Just what we wanted.

Pierre-Paul Laplante

Like the real character: not impressed... There were multiple Issues with the kitchen: food was overcooked. Asked for medium-rare steak, got well done, ribs were hard as shoe soles, fries were cold. The service was adequate, ambiance was ok and they took good measures for distanciation.

elizaberth rooke

Really good french fries and their fish and chips went bad at all

Thors Beastley

Good food, sticky tables. Nice staff, dark room.

Jennifer German

Service was good...but the food is like Don Cherry's career on the way out!

Tamara Collison

Great food great people definitely worth a visit

Kevin Grice

Great... Full house great service wonderful crowd the food was perfect ... Mmmmmmmmmm there wings are fantastic get the buffalo sauce ooohhh yeah!... Nice pint of Stella and some pals... Thanks guys

Justin Myre

Slowest service ever.. sat for 20 min with empty beer before i was asked for another.. sat for 40 min when second beer and dinner was done before I could even ask for a bill.. Im from Niagara Falls just visiting.. This place was quiet and there was no reason for this long of a wait.. Never go back..

Sharon German

Great service, good food.

John Demianiuk

Food was pretty good. Seemed under staffed, but service was still descent despite.

Santiago Montoya Guevara

Good food friendly staff.

Louise Nicksy

They have a great new keto menu! Had chicken Alfredo on veggie noodles last evening. Delicious:)

Gayle Wilson

Great food and generous portions. Friendly staff. If you want a salad be sure to ask about the sizes because a small salad is huge lol.

Garry Lam

Food was ok and did the job as I was passing through here from a weekend getaway. Place is a bit grungy. Must walk through the bar to get to the washroom, bar area does not understand the concept of physical distancing.

Page Bush

Only once have we not enjoyed the food! Love eating in when we get the chance (dissapointed theres no drink menu) and love the fact we can get it delivered! Our usual go too place!

Taylor Searles

Excelent food and good pricing! The interior of the restraunt could use some work. Otherwise fantastic wings

Justin Labelle

The service was a little slow and it wasn't busy at all. I think they may have forgot about us for a little bit. The portions we received for a poutine and cheese dip were fairly large. The food was okay.

Pete Lamothe

We did love coming here for wing night. Wings are the best! Met some family that night but showed up later. We're sitting at a table for 6 just my brother and I. Every drink we needed to go to the bar and when we ordered we also had to go to the bar. Nursing our drinks all night and waiting for service!!! A waitress came to our table to tell us she needed us to move to another table because a group was coming in that takes this table ever other Tuesday. We were directed to a different 6 chair table in a not as nice spot. I put up a bit of a fight but my brother prefers to not make waves and just never go back.......... ever..... BYE BYE DON CHERRY'S

Cameron Lowe

Very good service and food was tasty.

Jay Brownley

Friendly staff and the food never disappoints! Great menu & the owners are the nicest couple you will ever meet.

Jeremy Finton

Awesome food, good service, and the staff were friendly!

holstein912

This place was hilarious, got talking to the locals and asked what drove the local economy and they told me crack-Fentanyl does. Went back to my hotel room and locked myself in my room.

James Christie

Good bar food. Service could be a bit faster, the staff is friendly and helpful. The air conditioning is set way to cold! Good portions!!

sean canary

Great service and food has never let me down! My kids love going here this is usually their first choice

Greg Droder (Slevin Kelevra)

I very much loved the food here! I would go again!

Very nice place and service. Mushroom soup was tasty. And my steak was perfect. I forgot to ask what was the red wine, hope to find such one again if I'm lucky. Thank you!

Neil Morden

Great service and food at great prices

Eric Law

Was in town for sleddin..... Erica took care of us so well! Couldn't be happier with the service...AND THE GRUB!

Julie Glendinning

Quick service, great food and fun atmosphere! Lots of GF options!

doug hurst (dorst)

Food was good. Very busy limited staff. Forgot about us. But she was running around. I'll go back.

Michael Brown

After my bad experience at Trapper's Choice, this was a pleasant surprise. The food was great, and the service outstanding. Loved the fries.

Bill Mundy

Friendly service. Good meal.

Ashley Mcclaskin

Love this place !!!! Always friendly !!!! Great place to sit back and watch the game have some food with friends !!!

Jaimie Wood

Service was quick and food was not the best but satisfying.

Valeria Castillo

Excellent food and service. I came here on my weekend short stay at perry Sound. Will definitely visit again when I come back.

S C

An hour and a half to get our meal.. which looked okay but felt like a boxed meal or Frozen.. we all felt terrible after we ate. one waitress did an amazing job but everyone else was totally incompetent I try not to say hurtful things about a place I visit but I would never go back there. Literally one of the worst experiences I've ever had in a restaurant everybody last night felt the same way people were walking out they were complaining but like I said one waitress tried so hard but they needed more staff. Unfortunately today with cerb maybe they just couldn't get the help with the girl said.. I think the owner needs to step it up and make the place feel better atmosphere

Kirby Freeman

We arrived behind another party and since there was no hostess they seated themselves and we did as well. Almost 10 minutes later I finally got up and went to get some menus for ourselves. Returning to our table a waitress very rudely informed me that we were supposed to wait to be seated. She then offered to come take our drink orders shortly. We waited several more minutes while we listened to her chattering to the one other party of locals that was seated on the patio. She finally came over to take our drink order and then disappeared for another 10 minutes. Thankfully another server noticed us sitting there with no food or drink and very cheerfully came to check on us. While we were placing our order with her, our original server came with our drinks and slid them onto the table and disappeared without an apology. Our new server made up for the first one and was very happy to serve us and got us our food very quickly. The food was great. Unfortunately this is at least the 3rd time we have had an experience like this and so we will again avoid coming here for quite a while.

Robert Falla

Food was very good. Stopped by for lunch. Figure on $13.99 for just about anything on the lunch menu.

think about what you say before speaking

I’m new to the area and read some bad reviews about this place - well came in tonight to have a drink - nice atmosphere - looks awesome - great service - didn’t eat anything but food looked and smell awesome

Janice Barksey

The food was great customer service was very good and friendly.The prices were reasonable.

Carolyn Andal

Good food . Great atmosphere

Bob Vida

Food was not bad but the service omg It was not busy and it took 1 1/2 hours for 5 of us to eat. When I finally got the bill she gave me the credit card machine and left. The other couple was so upset with what was going on that they just threw some cash on the table and left. I might add that we were both dumb enough to still leave a decent tip but don't worry we will never be back and will definitely never recommend the place to anyone.

Peter Yule

Don cherrys is awesome great food an great prices too

Vi Mckinnon

Good food. Usually the service here is very good however the last 2 times we visited the service was deplorable. 3 tables arrived after us and all 3 were served before us. There is no excuse for this bad service.

Wendy Laplante

Service was great. Food was very good.

Jacquie Duck

Over cooked the wings. Didn't remember to record our reservation and messed up our orders

Dianne Bartolomei

Best wings around

David Ferguson

Staff was extremely friendly and the food was delicious. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.

True North Canadian

Fun place, friendly staff. Don Cherry is a legend! They should have treated him better. :(

Bonnie Mowery

Well the service was amazing the waitress was kind and very helpful to us we were in wheelchairs the food was outstanding we will be back for sure

bil milar

The wings, prime rib are very good. Service has been more than adequate, good servings, and the prices are reasonable. Thanks to ALL the staff for working during COVID. If you expect fine dining, and service.. best to take your service somewhere else, and max your credit card.

Chase Hackwell

Good bar great atmosphere, food isn't the greatest but its bar food not fast food and not a luxury restaurant so its what's to be expected They know how to make drinks and keep them coming Can do some horse race betting,or just sit and watch the sports on the TV either way it's a good spot and you'll always meet some interesting characters. Lots of working folks from out of town

Lynda Doughty

Nice patio. Good service. Typical pub fare

Leslie Tabobondung

Dinner was delicious excellent service from wait staff. ????????

Bill Demkiw

Great food. Reasonable price. Seniors menu has good variety and very good pricing.

Mandy Dumais

Great service and good meal!

Dave Doherty

Food and service great as always. They have a great menu

Karen Jory

Service was terrible!!! Few people at bar husband and I at a table. Had to go get us another drink. App dishes not cleared when dinner was brought. Waited 20 minutes for bill. Went to bar to get bill.. And pay . sure I could have left without paying and who knowd when she would have noticed.

Sue Rechil

1/2 price wing night on Tuesday. Good food.

Michelle Martin

Used to get Don Cherrys at least once a week. Unfortunately the last little while it's gone down hill. Tonight we ordered fish and chips and a quesadilla. It was AWFUL. We had ordered gravy got home there was none. No salsa or sour cream for the quesadilla. Our quesadilla was cold and only had one type of cheese and little bit of cold chicken. My husband called and spoke to "Dave" who was down right ignorant with him. Told him the things he missed and all we got from Dave was want to come get your gravy in a mocking voice. Not once an apology or an attempt to rectify the situation. And to cap things off when I went to pick up the food I waited over ten minutes at the counter while both kitchen staff looked at me and just walked away and Dave stood out on the outdoor patio socializing while my food was there getting cold. The entire situation is unacceptable. We will never be ordering from there again. I'm pretty sure Don Cherry would be appalled to see how this restaurant is run.

Christopher Dumigan

Stopped in for a beer after a back country camping trip, quick service and cold beer.

Todd Beauchamp

Great food and even better service

Budgie Grotesque

Good place to have a drink with friends. Great service whenever I have went recently.

Don C

Food was ok. Not worth the 50 dollars I spent but you pay for convenience. What bothered me was the waitress assumed my mother was over 55 and gave her a senior discount....call me old fashioned but thats extremely insulting. There are ways of finding out if someone is over 55. For example; just mention we have a discount for seniors. If someone at the table wishes to reveal their age and save the 4 dollars then they will. But I bet ya most people will just pay the 4 bucks. It's the little things that make a business thrive, being in parry sound customer service should be your number 1 priority. We will pay more to be treated like friends and family not another "senior" walking in. I encourage people to not take my word for it but to see for themselves. This was just my experience. Good luck!

Dave Cooke

Best wings anywhere!

Robin Hodgson

The food was average, the server was nice, but overall I wouldn't return.

Brenda Fraser

Service was good food was terrible. Dry rub wings had no taste White wine tasted watered down and my son's beer tasted like soap

Craig B

Smaller venue very little parking, but the wings are awesome and it's 2 for 1 on teusdays. My wife had the cobb salad and loved it. Food is great

Mara Sandler

Fantastic service - they even went out of their way to ensure I had orange juice!

jay taylor

Good food good for service .... Needs to be up dated!

Aubrey Gould

Excellent food great waitress

Karen Nelson

Food was good! Staff were very pleasant! The decor...ceiling is falling in...needs repair and paint badly.

Karalyn

If I could put 0 stars I would. AVOID THIS RESTAURANT AT ALL COSTS!!! Terrible service, served meat to a vegetarian and when asked to fix it, waited over an hour for it not to come and then decided we did not want to wait any longer so left. Got a "discount" on the incorrect order that was not able to be eaten. Service was absolutely terrible, people that came in after us left before us. When we asked to speak to the manager they said "they are busy so you can leave or wait for them." After 30 minutes of waiting for the manager we got up, paid for a meal that couldn't be eaten and left because we could not stay in that environment any longer. To top it off, only one employee in the entire restaurant was wearing a mask. When asked why they aren't wearing masks the waitress said "they have COPD and Asthma." It is hard to believe that all of the 6 other employees have one of those diagnoses, however it is "possible," I guess. It is sad to see this because I have been going to the other location of Don Cherry's for years but ever since it moved (and I am assuming got new owners) it has gone completely downhill. I will NEVER return here, and will tell all my friends to avoid at all costs.

Gina Chapman

Great meal but ladies bathroom not great

Linda Erskine

Good food, good service, restaurant was chilly

Maurice Ewaskiw

The food is amazing and the staff are awesome.

bill ferris

Just had a wonderful Mothers day dinner.Four of us.the prime rib was exellent.and cooked perfect.The stuffed chicken breast,which my wife had was also great. One guest had the blackened salmon,also excellent.Great service By Alda.Keep up the good work,and good food.Recomend it to everyone.Thanks.

Bee Holtham

Never had a disappointing meal here, staff are always really nice. Definitely my favorite place in the hoot

Carter Dickinson

Very friendly staff and a great atmosphere but the food was lacking.

Ross Brethour

Very friendly and quick service. Food was excellent

Christina Haeussler

Tuesday’s 2-1 wings were excellent as always. My only suggestion: more sauce on the wings

Hailey C

I've only ever ordered for delivery, but the girls on the phone are great, one even remembered me from my last time ordering, delivery is always quick and the food hot. The food has been great every time.

Carman Fuerwallner

Jenn was excellent. Service was great. Overworked for sure. Give the girl a raise. Food quality was good as usual .

Gabriel Trodd

Excellent food, fairly priced with good seating selections.

Venessa Badour

Food was awesome, service was a little slow but still a friendly place to be!

Nic Led

Not a great experience. Started off with them losing our reservation. Waitress was rude a number of times and absent when it was not even busy. Bathroom smelled like marijuana, floor was sticky and no toilet paper. Waited over an hour for mediocre food. Will not be returning.

Alison Hermansen

Great menu with wide variety of choices. Food was very good quality and very professional service. Better than I thought it would be for a sports bar!

Mike Clunas

Good food, some of the best french fries I've ever had!

Sandy Moffat

Always excellent food and service

Gisele Samaan

I'm not a fan of the brand, but it was the only place in town that was open on Friday evening (of all days, come on Parry Sound). The service was selective, the establishment clearly favours their regulars over strangers passing by. In my opinion this is poor customer service. You treat customers the same, regardless of your varying comfort levels with people. The table right next to us was getting regular visits from the server, striking up small talk, asking if they need water. I had to get up and walk to the bar area at some point to look for ours. The menu was disappointing. Full of carbs and fatty red meat, minimal vegetables on offer, very unhealthy options. The food prices are decent for this type of restaurant, however value for money is lacking as the food was extremely salty and took a questionable amount of time to produce (labour shortage maybe? If so, pay your people more, not my problem). Overall poor experience, the place was otherwise clean. I will avoid going to any Don Cherry's in the future.

Susan Rivers

Service was fantastic and so was the food!!

nonita carpio

Did takeout since we were staying at a resort close by. Food is overpriced for the quality served. Service was mediocre, I had to get my own menu and approach them to place my order. Kids love lasagna but not theirs. And I guess being in a small town there is not much covid protocols, servers had masks down to their chin.

Justin Majik

Stopped here for lunch after being disappointed at another "sports bar" in Parry Sound. I called ahead of time to ask if they were playing the Cowboys game and the woman said that they had the game on. We arrived and they said they did not have that game playing.....Server was kind and the food was excellent. Very limited parking on site.

Chrissie White

Unbelievable portions. Excellent customer service. Great prices.

Muriel McKee

Lots of good choices. Wings were big 2 for 1 special on Tuesdays.

Erika

Walked in, saw none of the servers wearing masks for COVID prevention, turned around and left. Will not be eating here - do not feel safe eating at a business run by anti-maskers.

Mark Stivrins

It's a decent place to get a drink, and great prices large wings on tuesdays

Wade Adams

Love the wing night Tuesdays. Great staff. Lots of sports running

Pauline Pope

Good food!

Jason Baptista

Great Service staff! Can't say to much about the food or the beer selection. I had the wings.

Joseph Toth

Reasonably priced, decent food, nice variety. Pretty good service

Adrienne Tyndall

Service was great but food was not.. would go back for drinks but that's about it

Merv Hicks

Great food great service

Justin Mcgaw

Waitress does not know what she is doing all over the place. Did not get the right order asked to have it changed and she told me to pick around I do have allergies. Absolutely garbage service avoid at all cost a mcdonalds drive through saves you time and way less hassle free. Dont eat here!!!

Krystle Deschene

Waitress was awesome. Fast, friendly and very helpful. However, we we're completely dissatisfied with our meal. Appitizer was decent and timely. However the main course was not. The wings were terribly dry and the ribs were so overcooked there wasnt any edible meat left on them. Will definelty not go back to this establishment which is disapointing becuz they used to have the best wings in town

Al Land

The waitress in the afternoon is very rude and the wings on wing night taste like leftovers

bri

If i could give ZERO stars I would. Do not go here unless you are local to the area or, believe me, you will be treated horribly. Waitresses seemed to be busy chatting in the corner while we sat and waited over an hour for our food (it was nothing crazy, just salads). The waitresses were also not wearing masks meanwhile we are in a GLOBAL PANDEMIC, which is not only disrespectful for customers, but also could potentially be harmful for our own health . I felt very disrespected and i encourage people to definitely stay away from this restaurant at all costs. Sad seeing this restaurant go to waste once they moved from the previous location.

mike knish

Signed in and took a table and nobody even as me if i wonted a drink or brought me a menu. Ended up leaving after 25mins, will never go back.

Christine Fluney

Had some great food here, friendly staff.

Josh Molenkamp

Great food, great service and decent prices

Jan Burgess

I love their Irish Nachos! Pic attached. I couldn't eat it all so took the rest home. Also a pic of part of the menu. Goodmfood, good value. Has a patio if you want to eat outside and inside it has lots of big screens to watch sports shows. I have been there ovreweight ten times and not been disappointed yet. Not gourmet, but good food.

Aleya Wight

Has the wings when they first reopened, they were very good. The staff was very nice too.

Scott Zenhenko

Was great ???? Jen is the best server ????

Rick Johnston

Best wings in town

Marcus Savage

May 14/17 20:00 2nd time back. Delicious wings and lasagna, the staff is prompt and courteous making sure we were happy and taken care of. My server, a short spunky brunette was especially easy on the eyes ????. Wish I had left my number.... Or got her name. Definately will be back.
