Dock Lunch (World Famous)

The food is not great at all. Have tried a few different things on the menu and was not impressed, but last one was the worse! The gyro looked like plastic strips and did not taste or look like a gyro at all. If it wasn't for the salad and fries, I would have been starving. The service was good and friendly and the restaurant has good atmosphere but was empty every time I go. Please do something to improve the quality of food! I have added another picture to let you know what a gyro should look like.

Stumbled upon this great spot. Friendly staff, quick service, and food was ready within 5 minutes. I hear this place is crazy busy, but I might have got lucky doing at 4 pm on a weekday because I was the only one there. I ordered the one-piece fish and chips $15 with a manitoulin craft beer $10, which was great! Self-serve gravy made this a 5 star for sure! Other condiments like jalapeños, onions, sauces, etc. were also self-serve in a refrigerated table. Ate outside on a picnic table over looking all the boats. Great spot!

A must place to go if you are a boater or visiting and want to enjoy Penetanguishene's harbour action. My wife and I enjoyed their foot long hot dog. The buns were bakery fresh. I had the side of Chilli and it was yummy. See picture. We sat in the inside eating area looking out over the Harbour...see window view picture. After supper we walked around the docks looking at the boats. See pictures.

I've been coming here for a couple of decades and have always enjoyed the views while eating lunch. More recently the current owners have made some changes. On the positive side, they have their liquor license and provide service to those interested. Unfortunately they have also added bars along the side of the patio overlooking the water. This along with other changes that enclose the patio make it feel a bit more like looking out from a jail cell than the prior patio feel. I do hope they keep up their interest in continuous improvement but get rid of the bars along the seating area overlooking the water.nnUPDATE: They removed the bars along the side of the patio overlooking the water. Much better!

Great food, I have yet to be disappointed.nI usually order the banquet burger which is quite good and of course I can't leave without at least one of their butter tarts.
