The Dock on Princess is located in Brandon's downtown. We ordered burgers, wings, and beer. The pub grub at this restaurant is really quite tasty and fantastic. I ordered the beer battered fries with my burger upon the server's recommendation and they were really tasty.
We really loved the food at this location and downtown vibes are fantastic, providing a really fun atmosphere. We ate on the patio outside to really take it in as it was a lovely day. We did not eat inside although we went in to pay and it certainly has the dimmer, character vibes of old pubs.
The portions were maybe a bit small but more than made up for in flavour. We definitely recommend this place and would love to go back for a dinner again next time we are in Brandon.

Last night we went for supper at The Dock and I tried the Fresh Bowl, it was outstanding and such an amazing meal. The combination of fresh salad with sweet, spicy, creamy and salty flavours and beautifully cooked chicken breast was the best! I will certainly order that bowl again, totally a win win!

My mother-in-law and I decided to have a late lunch, we were in the vicinity of The Dock and she had never been before so we popped in. She was keen on sitting in the back and soaking up the pub-style atmosphere. She is normally a lite eater and sticks to a bowl of soup. So I was surprised when she ordered and then devoured the Tequila Lime Tacos because they were SO delicious! Her intention was to take some home for her evening meal, they didn't make it that far!! Success. We will definitely be bringing her back.

To be clear, I sm rating the nachos we had and not the restaurant itself. This is because we were having beer across the street at Section 6 brewery in Brandon. As Section 6 itself does not have a kitchen, they have a takeout arrangement with The Dock for patrons at the brewery.
The nachos were just okay and certainly nothing outstanding. The bar had been set pretty high the night before when we had nachos at the Lake of The Woods Brewery in Kenora - soopoib!!
The Dock’s nachos were only warm when they were delivered to us at Section 6 and the meat (burger) was bland tasting.

It was ok. Ambience is nice enough. Salads,
Breads, and the beer battered fries were great. Meats - eg ribs and wings- were disappointing - we have had a lot better elsewhere. Server was very attentive but it took ages to get our meal after ordering, even though they were not busy.

Hi, I'm so sorry you didn't enjoy your experience with us. The ribs are a longer cook time but shouldn't haven't taken ages. I appreciate the feedback and hope you'll give us another chance sometime!

The Dock has the best patio in Brandon. During these difficult times we opted for a take out meal to celebrate a special occasion that would bring The Dock patio atmosphere home. The food was delivered on time, hot, fresh and delicious. It was easy to order on the app and I called in a special request. The staff were friendly and accommodating as always. Thank you and can’t wait to order again. Highly recommend the cauliflower tacos and wings.

Great experience for family and grandkids. Jenna our server was great! Sat in the front area away from the noise of the bar. She helped us with all our gluten free choices (there were 8 of us gluten free). This is one of the largest gluten free menus I have seen. Loved the food. Beef dip was ok, would have been better with thinner slices of beef. We all loved the gluten free poutine. Thanks Jenna!

Thanks for the review Rocky! I'm so happy you enjoyed the gluten free menu and Jenna took good care of you. I apologize for the beef dip. We are working with a new cut of beef and it seems we haven't gotten it just right yet! We will get this sorted for next time!

My husband and I recently moved to Brandon fr BC, well for me, I was returning home. We decided to try out The Dock, for the first time tonight. We sat out on the patio and even though it was scorching hot outside, the shade that the umbrella & the building provided made it bearable to sit outside for our meal and beer. We both had The Fisherman’s Catch and it was delicious! The service was great and we were impressed with how well they were practicing Social Distancing. Our server, Tiffany, was very friendly too. DEFINITELY a place we will eat at again!

Welcome back to Manitoba Lori! We are so glad you and your husband decided to give us a shot. It has definitely been a hot one this summer, but we are lucky that by the late afternoon our patio is almost completely shaded. We are happy you enjoyed your meals, our social distancing procedures and that Tiffany took good care of you. We look forward to seeing you again!

Based on TripAdvisor's ratings I was looking forward to trying this restaurant. My co-worker raved about the food. I am a burger guy so I ordered the Dock Burger and it was tasty. The bun is unique (for me anyway), the bacon was thick, and overall this was a very good burger. The home made coconut onion rings were a nice addition.
The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is the burger patty composition. I used to mix bread crumbs into home made patties and stopped as the texture "felt" soft in my mouth. This patty at times had that same texture. My wife dubbed me "Burger Snob" and I have to agree with her as she has no problems with any of the ones I feel have this bread crumb addition. I will definitely be back and try something different as the entire menu looks interesting.

Thanks for the lovely review and feedback on the burger. We understand what you mean about the bread crumbs. We actually do have a version without any bread crumbs as we make gluten free burgers as well. Next time you’re in you could ask your server for gluten free patty if you want to try them out.

My buddy and I went to The Dock to relax and play some pool. Our server was friendly and efficient, and she kept checking on us to ask if we needed refills or anything else. The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable in my opinion.
We enjoyed our afternoon there.

We had had a long hot day, hiking at the Spirit Sands. The patio at The Dock was cool and the wasps were kept in control by a cleverly placed trap. We had great service and wonderful food. I didn’t expect such good fish in Brandon and my partner’s burger was also fantastic! And the coconut onion rings! We will definitely go back if we are in Brandon again.

Definitely Jimmy Buffett inspired island atmosphere and you just gotta love it! The service and food was outstanding. The beer battered fries and the dock burger went perfect with a cold one on a hot July afternoon. Can’t wait to go back looking forward to trying the dock mac and cheese with a bucket of cod and of course with a couple of cold ones.

I'm a local here from Brandon, and personally The Dock is one of the best local restaurants here in Brandon. Great food, best burgers in town, and they consistently win local awards for their service and food. It prides itself on local food from local sources. Whenever I travel to different cities I always seek out what the best local restaurants are, I rarely ever go to chains if I can't help it. So if you're a traveler or tourist visiting or passing us by, I would recommend this place as one of your spots to go eat.
It also has a good vibe and atmosphere for the university crowd too as this was one of our go-to spots when people from my class wanted to hang out after class; I've even had professors bring us here just to hang out and get to know their students.
