Love that place!

Jul 2020 • none

Our last night in Saskatoon, we decided to give the Cathedral a try. We were not disappointed. It was a Tuesday night. We decided to go on the Patio because the weather was great but wouls have also taken a table inside. Nice atmosphere. We had to wait a couple od minutes because the staff disinfected and sanatized the tables twice. I have no problem waiting for my safety. The service was quick and good. We decided to order a bucket of Corona and the Nachos. We were not overly hungry, just in snack mood. The bucket of beer ( 5 bottles) was $27 and the Nachos were $ 16. I have to admit I love Nachos and was not disappointed. Not too big, not too small, exactly right size. Good quality Nachos and not a messu eat. Great! The paperless menu is fantastic and I like this idea. Loved to sit outside and seeing some antique cars driving by. Even tough it is on a main street, it was neither loud nor too busy. If I come back to Saskatoon, I will come back. Thank you!

Great food and service

Aug 2021 • family

Went on a family staycation at the Sheraton hotel which is next door so decided to try Cathedral Social Hall. We were impressed with both the food and service. We arrived late afternoon so enjoyed a snack during happy hour. The perogies were delicious (so good our daughter and I went back so she could get them again the next day), and my husband enjoyed his poutine too. The mini doughnuts were only so-so as they were quite heavy and not quite cooked all the way through (the waitress apologized but didn’t offer to get us more fully cooked ones) but otherwise it was great. Nice selection of beer on tap and we enjoyed getting a flight which allowed us to select 4 of their many options to sip on which we very much enjoyed. On our first visit we sat inside and enjoyed the air conditioning as it was a very hot day, and it was comfortable and pleasant. It was quiet inside at the time with only a few tables being sat but we agreed it would most likely be very loud if busy. Just something for us to consider if we’re looking for a quieter place to dine. The next evening my daughter and I returned for her second order of perogies and a drink and enjoyed sitting outside on their patio which was lovely. Service was even better on our return visit. Prices were reasonable, restaurant was clean, and service was good. Would recommend!

We are from out of town came here with my husband and son for an afternoon drink and snack (yam fries) our server was amazing we had no idea what things were we asked she wasn't annoyed and showed interest for every questions. I'm also a manager of a restaurant and she was over the top great to us . Never an empty drink and we are very happy leaving and going to tell people to come here anytime. Keep up the good work. BOH and FOH awesome job 👏

OK food horrible service

Jan 2020 • business

I had the pad thai bowl with prawns and I subbed the noodles with rice. The food was just average nothing special at all. Now the service it was absolutely brutal. The bartender brought me my first drink and menu then there was nothing for 20 minutes. Finally the waitress asked for my order and even though my drink was empty did not bother to ask if I wanted another one. I ended up flagging down the bartender to get another. Place was not busy maybe 4 or 5 tables except for one table of 14 or 15 and all focus was on them. I watch as the other tables were get the same service as I was. Also watched as the what I assume was the manager or owner stand by the bar and chit chat and not help the sever at all.

Meh....not worth the bother.

Dec 2020 • couples

Maybe I’m being especially hard on Cathedral because I disliked the Freehouse, which was in that location before but to me they are essentially the same. The house wine was cheap and terrible....our server wouldn’t even tell me what it was. The service was not the best. There’s something to be said when a person is presenting themselves well, they present the establishment well also. But this girl looked like she just crawled out of bed and threw on the first dirty baggy jeans and hoodie she found with dirty old runners......and she definitely left her friendliness and smile at home. At this point we chose to move on in finding a place to eat. There are far too many good choices in Saskatoon to be going back here.

Good stop

Apr 2022 • couples

Travelling through and stopped overnight in Saskatoon, so searched through reviews looking for a casual beer and something supper. Cathedral SH sounded like it fit the bill, and it did. Not overly crowded when we arrived, so had our choice of seating. Service was pretty good, not outstanding or over the top, but got the job done quickly and efficiently. They had 30 beer on tap, mostly craft beer from western Canada, and including Sask and Saskatoon options. Typical gastropub menu with nothing really screaming for attention. We picked a couple of standard items, and the food came quickly, and was nicely presented, attractive and really very good. A good stop - good beer and good food.

Good place to hang out and grab a meal

Aug 2022 • none

The place is rather large with outside and inside dining with nice decorations. The waitress was very nice, friendly, and efficient. The food was pretty good. Seems like a good hang out place. There were some concerts across the street and the Cathedral Social Hall was packed with folks (presumably eating dinner) before and after the concerts.

Soggy pizza

Aug 2022 • none

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find a decent meal in downtown Saskatoon. I stay here on business regularly at the Marriott over the road. Came here for evening meal and ordered Pizza. Topping was OK but all of the bread part apart from the crust was just soggy and quite unpleasant. Overall very average Pizza but decent IPA beer and service was fine.

Excellent!!

Aug 2022 • none

We were fairly early for dinner so it wasn't busy so I can't comment how the service would be when they are packed. Waitress was enthusiastic and told us about happy hour and how to bring up the menu with the QR code. She visited the table the appropriate amount of times to see how we were doing. Greek riblets as an appetizer were very good..perhaps a little bit too lemony. Had the Poke bowl and chicken fingers. Were both excellent. Wonderful beer selection and was nice and cold. Well done!!

Excellent food and lots of choices for beer. Also available are beer flights. Appetizers, Perogies were delicious as were the sweet potato fries. The Beef Dip was excellent and the Pizza tasty. The place was very busy but the staff were functioning well. Friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Terrible Service. Absolutely the worst!

May 2024 • couples

The service was absolutely terrible. We sat for 30 minutes before getting any attention at all. Finally, the server came by and apologized. I really appreciated the apology. Unfortunately, it didn’t get better at all. My husband’s tacos arrived stone cold. She came once to ask how everything was but she didn’t stay around long enough to hear a response. We would have loved dessert but she never came by again.When I paid the bill (that I had to approach the bar to request), the server asked how everything was. I told her honestly that the service and food were a disappointment. She argued with me and told me that I was wrong. No, one dish was cold and we received no attention from the server. Seriously, of all the service we’ve had in Saskatoon in the last ten years, this was the absolute worst. I’m sorry about that because we have previously loved this place. We won’t be back and will encourage others not to go to it.

First time here, won't be our last!

Jul 2021 • friends

This place is awesome! Great food, portions, staff and atmosphere! We tried many different dishes and enjoyed them all. We happened upon happy hour. Recommend the Dill Kettle Chips with Ranch dressing. So good! We also shared the Happy Hour Prairie Perogies, Greek riblets, Hall white wine, and the Thia chili chicken bowl.

Really Great Place

Sep 2021 • none

We were staying across the street at the Delta so popped in here for dinner. Love the decor and bar. Our choice to sit inside at a high table but we could have easily sat out on their patio which was nicely lit up with strings of lights. Shared a meal of prairie pirogies, Caesar salad and chicken wings all of which were delicious. Served quickly and hot and fresh. Our great waitress Avery made our evening complete.

Great!

Apr 2023 • family

This is such a cool place in Saskatoon, and I cannot wait to go back. The beer, food and service was outstanding. The Guacamole and Chips were amazing. Best guacamole I have had. The perogies were very, very good, and were not something I would normally I order, but glad we did. The wing sauces were amazing and very unique. Thank you to Shasta for her great service!
