Glenn Burney Lodge

I want to start this review by noting the good things about our meal. The food is excellent. My husband had the smoked chicken wings, and I had the pickeral special. Lovely flavour and beautiful views of the harbour. I have to unfortunately mention the terrible service we had. We were not greeted at all, despite having a reservation and had to seat ourselves. We were then given a drink menu and a kid's menu - no regular food menu. When the waitress asked for our food order, she was perturbed that we didn't know what we wanted (she had NOT given us a food menu.) My husband had to get up and get a menu from a pile that he saw by the bar. When I asked what kind of wines they had, I was rudely a...

We arrived for an early dinner and it looked as if a large lunch crowd has just left - AND just in time for a wait staff shift change.This is an outdoor restaurant on the shore of Georgian Bay. The decor in the restaurant and the bar area is very nicely finished but is already starting to look a little tired. I suspect that they need a professional housekeeping/cleaning staff!Our waitress confessed immediately that she was very new - she had just started. So - some questions needed some research BUT she was very friendly and polite and got us any answers we needed! The food was a little spotty but good. Maybe not quite good enough for the price but still good. We had a Beer battered Pickerel...

Happened upon this spot as we were travelling cottage country.Looked at the menu online and thought...this should be interesting!45 day Dry aged burger? I'm in big time. House smoked meat? Now your speaking my language. Huge points for scenery and staff, good beer selection....did I mention the scenery?BUT disappointed with the food. How sad.Burger didn't really taste like anything, they even mentioned they cooked it sous vide but they forgot the flavor.....maybe it was a bad day?Had the Chacuterie platter - house smoked salmon (you could taste the brine....wrong,)! house smoked chicken - best of the plate, house lamb sausage - dry and needed more flavor, house smoke cheese - couldn't taste...

The GBL Patio is a delightful spot in Parry Sound. The bar/lounge area is well-designed for its location, with plenty of waterfront tables at different levels. There's a large floating screen that doesn't obstruct the view, and the staff, while a bit quirky, are competent. The local brew (Norse) and other drinks are great, and the music selection is good (no rap or anything like that). And then there's the food - our dry aged burgers with delicious cheese, smoky bacon, and fresh toppings were fantastic. We couldn't finish our meal at the restaurant and ended up taking the rest home. We'll definitely return for a Pimm's and the pickerel. Just a heads up - the parking lot is quite a distance f...

We love waterside dining. There's something about all of the coming and goings of people that make it much more interesting. It's especially fantastic when we can couple that experience with great food and cold beer. Glenn Burney hits the mark on all counts!Great upbeat atmosphere and fantastic menu choices make dining at this location as interesting as it gets. Although the service can be a little slow when things get busy, who cares because you can sit back and enjoy the views.Make sure you try any of their smoked dishes because they spend a lot of time working the onsite smokehouse. If you order a burger, get the one with the cheese and bacon. I'm not a huge fan of the smoked wings but th...

The location is absolutely wonderful, the staff very friendly; but compared to the former Glenn Burney dining lounge, which sadly burned to the ground a few years ago, the food choice is limited and far from its former spectacular self. The ribs were under-cooked by a long shot, the main course selection limited and not terribly interesting. On the date we dined, the draft beer was out of order and there was no bacon which features on the menu. We did have a plate for 2-4 people of a wide selection of smoked fish, meat and cheese that was a tasty appetizer. but other than battered fish and chips there was no seafood served as a main.

We had the pleasure of watching the Tragically Hip concert here. What a fun special night. We had a great time. We did the special menu of Cowboy steak, corn on the cob and mashed potatoes. The kitchen sent us zucchini on the house. We really enjoyed it very much!!I think especially considering they were slammed that night it was great. Someone in the kitchen clearly knows what he's doing.

Absolute favourite restaurant in the Parry Sound, Georgian Bay Area! You can choose to eat in the restaurant over looking the Georgian Bay or outside on the dock or around a bonfire. Your choice! Best meal at a restaurant in years. Reserva una mesa ahora

During the 1980s, there were very few attractions in the Penetanguishene and Midland area that were deserving of a strong recommendation, but this restaurant was one of them.

This restaurant is a must-visit for all Canadians, as it offers a great cultural experience and is also fun for children. There is so much to do here!
