Reviews for The Queens Hotel in Barrie, ON
One the few best strips I've been to. There is no entrance fee witch makes sense because it's located far from Toronto. The... girls are so friendly and energetic. Place is small but the atmosphere makes up for it. There is three pool tables but it wasbusy the whole time. Drinks are ok. We were a group of five friends and we all had a fun night. Read more
It's ok overall! There was a lot of creepy men. More than what you'd experience in downtown toronto. There is a $5 entry... fee. The dj needs to work on his skills, stop jumbling random songs together they should have a flow and don't cut the songs atthe good parts. I didn't partake in the drinks, so I won't comment on that. Barrie doesn't really have alot of options so don'tcome with high expectations. Read more
The last two times I have been there have not been good, though the staff were friendly and courteous. The second-to-last time... I was there was a couple months ago, with two friends. We all ordered our own order of chicken tenders. The tenders tasted likenothing...literally nothing. No seasoning (not even salt) could be tasted, nor could the chicken. We didn't complain but whenthe waitress asked us how our meal was, our faces gave us away so we explained. We received a 50% discount, which was a kindgesture. No, none of us had COVID-related loss of taste or smell. The last time I was there was yesterday; a friend and I splitthree appetizers. We got the deep fried pickles, potato spuds and the dry ribs. The deep fried pickles were fantastic. The orderof spuds was supposed be six pieces, but only five arrived. The dry ribs were tasty, but for twelve dollars we received awhopping four ribs, plus two other miniscule pieces that were essentially deep-fried gristle. Three tiny apps and one drinkcost more than $50, before tip (we tipped well, as the service was fantastic). We didn't complain because a gift card coveredmost of the cost of the meal, but that's probably the last time I will risk eating at the Queens. You just don't get value foryour money. There are plenty of restaurants on Dunlop Street that have better food. Read more
I was really disappointed in the quality of my meal today. I ordered the spinach & goat cheese salad w/ tofu because they were... out of falafel. I’ve had their falafel wrap in the past and it’s a great choice for vegetarians. It was $6 extra to addtofu so I was expecting it to be marinated, grilled, fried … something to justify that price tag! Nope. Uncooked, unseasonedtofu straight outta the package. An entire package of tofu is only $2-$3, so the $6 extra charge for a couple pieces of tofu isridiculous. The spinach & arugula were also badly wilted. So much so that about 1/4 of the salad was completelyinedible. Anyway. It was the worst $30 salad I’ve ever had. The service was great, but that doesn’t mean much when the foodis overpriced and half rotten. Won’t be returning anytime soon! Read more
I have been here recently and I tipped them the amount that I afford.. surprisingly, the manager who’s on charge came and... question about the amount I tipped them and I was like that’s what I can afford and he’s like you’re not welcome.. such adisgusting discussion I have ever had with any one in my life.. I would recommend not to choose this place if you are not affordthe tips that they are anticipating!! Totally disappointed!! What’s up with tips obession.. I will never visit this place!!Period!!

The food and the service here were excellent, would definitely return. Tried the cauliflower bites, burger and deep dish pizza... and all were excellent, fresh, flavourful and hot. Service was fast and friendly as well. If you like live music they also had adecent band on Saturday night. Would recommend. Read more
Food is tasty, especially the ribs (the sauce was something!). Burger was good too. Service was slow though and everything was... cold. Portions are bit small. Bbq plate is supposed to feed 2 to 3 people - it's more likely 2 :( and prices inline with similarpubs in the area. Overall an average experience. Read more
Great place with amazing energy! My fiance and I stopped in for an after work bite and were pleasantly surprised by the busy... atmosphere and the great live music. Food and drinks were great as well Read more
