East End Grill And Bar - Pickering, Ontario

Everybody loves the souvlaki dinner. The portion is massive. The meat is tender. The salad is great. The potatoes are delicious.
They have all day breakfast starting at 7 am and while I didn’t order it someone else did and it looks amazing. The soup is delicious and they have three options.
The nachos are massive with lots of cheese.

I came here last week on Victoria day after the Jays game. We ordered the half-price wings special and calamari, which was 30% off appetizers.

When we walked in the bar, it had a bad smell. Probably need better ventilation, and some of the patrons smelled like cigarettes.

The wings were decent size and juicy. They could've tossed them in more wing sauce. I could barely taste the buffalo ranch. The honey garlic wings were good. The calamari tasted good, but the breading was falling off and soggy. Most likely, the oil was not hot enough, or the breading was too watery.

Unfortunately, I won't return to this bar because of the ambiance. It's a shame because the food was promising.

It has been quite some time since we last visited this establishment. We had heard that there had been some renovations and changes made, so we decided to dine here last night. We were not disappointed. I had a delicious salmon dinner, my husband had hot turkey dinner, and the soup and salad were very generous servings. Will definitely return

We decided to give this restaurant a try for dinner after reading positive reviews, but our experience left much to be desired. As we approached the entrance, we were greeted by an unsightly collection of ashtray buckets, and the presence of numerous smokers congregating near the front door was rather displeasing.

Upon entering, we found the restaurant nearly empty, with only a few patrons seated at the bar. A waitress behind the bar caught our attention but made no effort to approach us or offer a friendly greeting. Instead, she engaged in casual conversation with another customer while sparing only occasional glances in our direction. It felt like she was waiting for us to initiate the conversation, which did little to create a welcoming atmosphere.

She slowly made her way over, so we informed her that we needed a moment to look at the menu, I took the opportunity to assess the overall condition of the restaurant. Unfortunately, it appeared to be somewhat neglected in terms of cleanliness and upkeep, raising concerns about the quality of the food. This, combined with the lackluster atmosphere, led us to decide against dining here.

Our initial experience made us wonder why we were met with such a lack of hospitality and whether this was a common occurrence for other patrons.

People there were great and good atmosphere. The new Co-Owners were saying they're getting new pool table and golfing sim. Good place to go with family and friends.

My favourite place to go when I am in town. I’m a regular, the staff is incredible and the vibe is unmatched. The owner is very sweet. I lost my mother’s wedding ring one night and they held onto it for me. Very trustworthy people. If you’re looking for good food and a fun chill atmosphere come here. 🙏🏻

Impromptu karaoke, great service, great vibes.

Last minute outing turned into one of the best nights my group of friends and family have had!

Had to take a bus from Toronto to Pickering, as the trains were out of service.

Decided to take a chance on a diner close to the go station, while we waited for the train.

Upon walking in we were immediately greeted with a friendly and comforting welcome.

Everyone working was extremely gracious, and made us feel at home 🙂

The food was delicious and very prompt (as they knew we had to catch a train)

Hidden gem…..if you’re ever by the Pickering go station, I highly suggest you stop in. It will definitely be worth the visit 🙂
