Jack Astor's - Pickering

Delicious food and occasional Patio music this is the place to go for a casual drink or a full on party. Such friendly and awesome staff!

I enjoy Jack Astors and the Pickeirng location opened with lots of fanfare but it seems to be slipping. Jack Astors has always had excellent food and over priced. But the service and wait staff were excellent, wel ltrained and seemed to be well managed. I enjoy the screens, and bar set up. Outdoor patio is nice. For a hefty bill you expect things to be pretty amazing and they seem to be getting getting a little slopier with service and food

Tasty food; however not cheap eats!Each meal starts at $15.Kids meals are the only thing priced well at $7.95 for the drink, good choice of meals and dessert. They also get moustaches on their straws and can draw on the paper on the table.Nachos are homemade, fully loaded and delicious. We got the 2' beef for two people."Medium wings were so hot they left our lips burning. Although yummy, we will get the mild next time.Caesar salad at $2.95 is really tasty and to be added to any meal.Kids ate fish sticks, fries and extra side of the veggies. My 3 year old did not like the fish (strangely as it's fried and battered,) but my 6 year old thought it was great.Great service. Jack Astors was out of the two bottles of wine we wanted. Our waitress offered a $40 bottle for the price of the one we chose $(28) and the manager approved!We saw only waitresses, no waiters out of 10-15 employees. All wear black mini skirts and low plunging shirts that reminded us of Hooters. They are 20-ish; however attentive so we didn't mind.Lots of TVs everywhere. Outside patio looks really nice. Will use when the weather is nicer.Overall good experience!

Just love their chicken strips. So tender. Have to have their pan bread too. Lots to chose from. The Budda salad is one of my favourites

Pickering location is usually pretty busy for a reason. Good food and service. Google the location to view popular hours. Can avoid a wait. Our latest visit we had a problem with a drink order from the bar which was resolved with a complimentary replacement. The 2 of us split a couple of starters for our dinner. Nachos with a chili con Carne topping along side fried calamari. Those dishes didn't leave us hungry at all. We usually have the burgers but all the dishes we see around there look to be worth a try. All ages seem to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere and we are not spring chickens. Lots of tv's for sporty types. Will return.
