The Pogue - Wheatley

My husband and I were taking a road trip along lake Erie and stopped in Wheatley for a bite last Saturday night. We were so impressed with the food and ambiance of this little gem I just had to write a review. First the inside is beautifully done. While the restaurant was busy, the staff were welcoming and attentive. The place was friendly. I ordered the clam chowder and the burger- and despite the fact I am from the east coast it was among the best chowders i have ever eaten. My husband's fish was cooked beautifully. (I am perplexed with a few of the reviews here - and wonder if perhaps the competition is worried. I wasn't expecting McDonalds or McDonalds prices.) We both felt it was reasonably priced for the caliber of the food. Nice selection of beer. All in all, we had a lovely meal and am looking forward to returning. Next time I will take pics - because the food was so well presented.

I think for a small town it's over priced .my meal was good. But not worth the price I will .. maybe..return on a special occasion . When I return back to Wheatley area I don't remember the servers name. But she had no desire to be at work that day. Maybe a bad day for her.. Remember 1st impressions go along way. I wish them the best. I guess everyone has an opinion Maybe lower your prices to attract the average hard working clientele. Tourists will try. But probably won't return

Couldn't believe how expensive this was! Pop was $4.50, full of ice, and no free refills! Perch tasted good but was tiny and definitely not worth the $21.00 price tag. I will never go back and I do not recommend this restaurant.

Yes.. I have to agree with Stefan's comments.. 1). While outside restaurant, in mid June 2017, the disability access door has been locked and ramp blocked off so disabled person's don't know it's there to use..(not even a disability entrance sign on door) .. so you had to crawl up & through the front door steps.. .... Only then to the realize there was an accessibility ramp, but it had tables blocking ramp and the door locked so it couldn't be used anyway. 2). The Pogue needs to regularly update their web site to show when their "famous shepherd's pie or other menu items have changed, because it is quite a drive to the Pogue in Wheatley Ontario from 401 highway, only to be disappointed when you get there, that what you went for, isn't on their menu anymore.3). We also were told by waitress the $21 roasted chicken breast supreme was actually a chicken thigh .. Not a breast as advertised on menu. for $21.00 ?? Sorry, but we were just not impressed in general about our visit in June 2017 to The Pogue and wont be returning any time soon.

Attended The Pogue for a late lunch. The atmosphere is nice but a bit generic for an Irish Bar. I had a shrimp boxty and their soup of the day, a purple carrot soup. The food was very good and tasty. I would definitely return for the menu. The beers on tap are limited but for the local, they are good. The service was very good and attentive. I will return to this place.
