  I was way more impressed than I thought I would be.  
  
  I expected this to be pretty medium quality food, but I had a caesar salad and the five cheese chicken.  The chicken was knock-you-socks-off good, and the green beans were cooked just perfectly.  A Kilkenny cream ale to pair with it only sweetened the deal.
  
  Service was very friendly and it was cozy and quiet enough in there to actually hold a conversation, which I really appreciated.  
  
  This is a great option if you're in the area.

  My hubs and I enjoyed our lunch at Canal Side on Monday, May 6. It was crazy busy!  How they managed to serve us all with a smile I do not know. I really appreciate the vegan options.

  The Canalside is my favourite spot in town they have great food and their choice of drinks is excellent and most of all the staff is amazing. I would recommend the Canalside to anyone who likes a great atmosphere and great food.

  Food is likely good if you have 1.5 hours to wait for your entree. Entered restaurant with three children and five adults before 6 pm on a Tuesday evening. No chicken nuggets, no chicken tenders.....had to find some kind of substitute meal for them. Only two other tables of two when we entered this restaurant. Confirmed that they had perch; children's food served 35" later; waiter then said we have no perch you will have to find something else on menu. 5" later some appetizers arrived. Plates, glasses never cleared from table. Entrees arrived at 7:10 pm. Waiter told my son his burger was burnt; my son was very hungry and upset. They then brought out another burnt hamburger. This was a terrible dining experience. Poorly organized and executed. We are visitors to the area and found this place on yelp. We thought a restaurant with a "Pub" menu would meet our needs perfectly. Wrong. They removed the burger and gave us a discount but that does not erase the bad memory.
