The HobNob Restaurant & Wine Bar is found in a beautifully restored 1832 manor house that overlooks the renowned Niagara-on-the-Lake Golf Club.

    We've been here 4 times before. We know we like the ambiance which is very nice as it is an old building. Mussel night Monday for 12$ so it was busy. Perhaps they need more servers on this night. Food: Lamb shank was very good. Served with panzarella which is bread cubes with nice carrots and tomatoes etc. I thought it was too much of the panzarella where I would have liked mashed potatoes and perhaps half of the panzarella. I pointed this out to our server and the manager but no options were offered. Other meal was Cornish game hen and it was very good. Ordered artisan bread and 3 spreads which were not explained as to what they were. Unfortunately we were finished our meal and the server diid not come for 15 minutes to remove the dishes and ask if we wanted coffee etc By then we just wanted out of the restaurant. Good service is expected when paying more than top dollar for the meal. Food was reasonably good but experience finished on a sour note.

    Best Afternoon Tea Service From Niagara to Toronto. The venue is a beautiful two hundred year old home that explodes with Christmas charm. The tea service items were all created with care and attention detail. Our table was set beside a fireplace in a regal dining room. Selections of tea from a local tea sommelier impeccable. Bravo, this was the best tea offering I have experienced in some time, and I’ve done more than my share. Service from Anna was impeccable, her knowledge of the items and area were impressive. A regal experience in beautifully decorated surroundings.

    Both the dining area or the pub style restaurant absolutely amazing. Great friendly staff, food is so good. Highly recommend. My husband had the steak sandwich and I had the butter milk chicken Sandwich, both were so good. Served hot, very tasty. Fries were also so good, big servings. Next day for breakfast my husband had the omelette, said it was the best her ever had. I had the French toast, so delicious, dessert for breakfast. Staff goes out of their way to look after you.

    We had afternoon high tea on the veranda. The selection of items was great savory and sweet. We also had a variety of teas to choose from. Will definitely be going back again.

    Consistently provides an enjoyable dining experience. All of the staff are friendly, professional, and courteous. It's very nice to have a dining room where you don't have to shout over loud music to have a conversation.

    Has dinner reservations at 7pm and arrives early to sit in the lounge. It was crowded but the staff quickly found us a table in the lounge. Matthew was our server for the evening and he was wonderful. The food was delicious and the atmosphere is casual to upscale dining. Overall it was a great experience and we would eat there again!’ Thank you to a herd working staff!
