Nov 2024 • couples

My wife and I had lunch here. She had a salad that she liked. I had a brisket sandwich with fries. The fries were reasonably good but I didn’t like the sandwich. The brisket had good flavor and was served in chunks which was interesting. It had way too much fat though - at least a third, maybe more. Pretty gross. They had a decent assortment of their own beers on tap. We didn’t order any though as we were driving. A few of them sounded pretty good. Based on the brisket sandwich I would not recommend eating here.

Great beer, great food

Sep 2023 • none

Paddy's was a fantastic place for a meal and a beer - we had been sat at a patio down the street at a different restaurant, who then ignored us even as other patrons were served around us. Thank goodness! We got up and found ourselves at Paddy's - great service, amazing chowder, really good beer (loved the Blueberry). Went back the next night and were treated to live music. Really great place.

Wednesday afternoon brunch.

Apr 2023 • family

We chose homemade fish cakes baked beans and eggs. The fish cakes and beans are always homemade and they vary from visit to visit. This thing they were perfect. The beans had just the right balance of sweetness and tartness. And the fish cakes were just salty enough to give your taste buds a kick. Service with a smile as always. Definitely a place to come back to

Worst dining experience ever

Oct 2022 • none

My family went to the restaurant around 2pm for a late lunch. It was busy and we had to wait to get a table. My first impression of the restaurant was not a good one, It was soooo dirty. So much food on the floor, under tables and in the hallway between the front and back part and so many tables were full of dirty dishes that were not being cleared away. Eventually we got a seat and water and menus and other drinks and then the waiting began. After an hour of waiting for our food my boyfriend started messaging the restaurant on Facebook to find out what was going on. A table to our right with four people who were seated after us had already finished their meal and were starting on dessert. Also by this time no one came back to check on us, our drinks were empty and never refilled, and the only response we got from the restaurant that they are busy and short staffed. Another table was seated and they got their appetizers and we still had no food and our drinks were empty. We were ready to leave. Finally I had to get up and find our waitress and ask what was going on, she said they had been waiting on one of our dishes. I don't believe that because it was over an hour by this time, I think our order may have gotten forgotten. When our food finally arrived, most of it was cold and it wasn't very good food anyway. Certainly not worth the price we paid for it. Our waitress never asked if I wanted more hot water for my tea, never brought more water, I didn't get utensils until I asked and we never got condiments. My father had to take salt and pepper off another table. Not once did anyone apologise or give us any discount or anything. I will never go back to this restaurant ever again.

Horrible

Sep 2024 • family

Been here a few times over the last couple of years and honestly everything we tried here is terrible even the service Went here Sept 15/24 and my wife ordered Cottage pie and I the brisket sandwich. The Cottage pie was dry and mostly ground hamburger with dry mashed potatoes on top. I had the brisket burger with bbq sauce or should I say the bbq sauce burger with chewy brisket. The service was just as bad . NEVER AGAIN

Dinner disaster!

Aug 2022 • none

Dinner My friend visiting from Ireland, on our lovely visit to beautiful Wolfville made reservations at this Pub/ restaurant. Was by far the worst dinner and cocktails we have ever tasted, Martini I could not drink and the chicken curry had zero curry sauce. This meal was inedible and so disappointing. This is one Irish restaurant { if it could be called this } should not be a destination on any visit in Wolfville.

don't go there if you are solo

Mar 2022 • none

My issue is mainly about the service I encountered as a solo diner. I spent an hour and a half at the restaurant and other than being given a menu, having the table cleaned off and separated so others could sit, my order taken and delivered there was no interaction with the waitress. I watched couples come in and get excellent service (and in and out in time for the hockey game). I waited about 45 minutes eating before I even could her attention to get my bill and a take out box, then waited about another 15 minutes before it was delivered to me. I had tickets to go to the theatre (next door) and literally walked in just as it was starting. As for the food, I had an Irish dish, not my favourite thing I ever ate, but I am always up to try new cuisine. The portions were generous.

Waste of Money

Sep 2022 • none

The atmosphere is so cold..The staff is not friendly. The food is beyond. We ordered a Irish Skillet, first I wanted hollandaise sauce on mine, they had none. It was on the menu, then the waitress told us what was not available. We ordered the skillet anyway. Nothing Irish about it, it was dry, tasteless and not fit. The homemade sausages had a vey odd flavor and was not good. The eggs were dried up and the homemade potatoes were ordinary to say the least. We ate a bit but left most. We were so disappointed because we always went there when we were in the area. Needless to say we will not go back.

Nice service, broad menu.

Mar 2021 • none

Honestly, I don't mean "average" as mean. We had a good meal, a nice drink, and the price was fair. The place has the feel of a beer hall in a university town, and I actually found the service and food to be of a higher standard than the location suggested. The connection between Paddy's and Rosie's is a bit confusing, as it really just seems to be the same thing.

Fantastic Prime Rib and Dirt Cheap!!!

Aug 2022 • none

My wife and I went to Paddy's last night to have supper and celebrate our anniversary. It was our first time there and we weren't disappointed. The server recommended the Prime Rib and we couldn't say no. Ended up getting mashed potato, lightly sauteed green peppers and carrots. We got a hug 24 oz slab of Prime Rib cooked to our perfection. Here's the kicker...we were blown away by the price. $20.99 for the dish. This is a $50 meal at high end places such as the Keg. We will be going back soon just for this meal alone!

Paddy’s Brewpub

Jun 2024 • couples

Easy to find in on the main road in downtown Wolfville. Nice outdoors patio at the front of the building plus a second outdoor patio at the rear. The service is good, and the craft beer is cold and tasty. The pizza is average. Two crust options: white or whole wheat. The whole wheat is a bit heavy. Good selection of toppings to choose from.

Pub & restaurant

Jun 2023 • family

The fish & chips were well cooked and delicious with a generous portion of coleslaw and sauce on the side. My friend had the clam chowder and it was equally good. Service was friendly and quick. Restaurant is accessible. Place has a very pub vibe and is a little dark in the back.

Paddy’s was perfect!

Aug 2023 • family

This pub was recommended by our campground host. Our server was friendly. Everything was fantastic ! We started with mussels in white wine sauce. Sooo good. Then between the five of us we had fish and chips, ribeye steak, scallop and pepper penne, bacon wrapped scallop meal, and the lasagne. Sides of perfectly crispy fries, Caesar and spinach salad. Stout was delicious and honeyed cider was divine. Perfect meal to end a fantastic day.

Don’t eat out a lot anymore.

Oct 2020 • family

Something terrible has happened to the quality of food at Paddy’s in Wolfville. I ordered the French onion soup and it came with saltine crackers on top with a little sprinkling of unmelted mozzarella cheese! Lol, I’ve never seen such a thing! Sent it back of course. Many items on menu were missing. The service was great though. Had to write this as this happened a month ago and it still bugs me. I will give the Kentville location a shot!😬

Leslie, we are sorry you did not enjoy our French Onion soup. We do remember your visit, and that you expressed to us that you did not like our soup. We assured you it was all fresh made by our culinary team. Our understanding is that our service team removed the item from your bill, as we want to make sure customers have a satisfying experience. Rest assured we have a top notch culinary team with many years experience here and our quality of food is great! We are sorry that you are still unsatisfied and we would like to offer a gift card, please contact us directly at feedback@paddyswolfville.ca and we can work it out.

Fun pub with great Irish music

Jun 2024 • couples

We had dinner here on a Sunday night as few other places in town were open, and because they had an Irish session that night. The food was okay - pretty good pizza, but my Caesar salad wasn’t great. But the staff is fun, and the music was awesome - about 15 or more singers, guitarists, pipers, accordion players, and more joined in. A fun night!
