Fresh Flavours in the neighbourhood...there's no place like Applebee's for the hot, fresh-from-the-kitchen flavours of our new sizzling entrees. Three new flavours to choose from: 1) Sizzling Steak & Cheese - Tender steak topped with Italian cheeses, sauteed onions & peppers and served with freshly made garlic mashed potatoes. It's a taste from home, right in the neighbourhood. 2)... more

My family and I stop here regularly, the service has been great and 2 can dine menu is a nice option. Stopped by this summer for the first time in a few years and really enjoyed it.

They didn't pressure us to leave
July 24, 2014

Had a lunch here with some friends. Lots of catching up to do so we appreciated that we were not pressured to rush. Our server was polite and reasonably friendly, she checked regularly until the last person arrived. Then, once we were ready to order, she was not around as much. Food was ok. Arrived promptly. A bit too spicy... more

Run Down Roadhouse Fare
July 01, 2014

Had to try this infamous middle American eatery one snowy afternoon in Barrie. The pretzels with mustard dip app tasted like drywall and mud. Just the worst. The draft beer was acceptable and service was fine. Decor is run down, sticky and beat up, much like the clientele. Absolutely no reason to return.

Dinner x3

Over the past month while on business found my self having dinner this restaurant as a resultmodmits location. First time there I was impressed with the service, speed and price of the meal as well as the taste of the food. All very good, so much so that I have returned twice in the past 2 weeks.

This was not my family's first trip to this particular Applebee's but it might be our last. We took "advantage" of the two for twenty-five deal. I don't know whether ordering from the main portion of the menu would have been a better idea or not. What I do know is that none of us were able to finish our meals (chicken fingers and fish and chips). The only highlight of the visit was the... more

Not bad, but you have better choices
December 29, 2013

It's been a while since we've been to any Applebee's, but no matter where we've been, we've always been satisfied.
Though the food was "ok", there wasn't a whole lot, and the seasonings were a bit over the top.
(I am not a big fan of rosemary, and there was quite a bit on my "bourbon" chicken and shrimp).

Worst first and last experience ever
December 23, 2013

First time went to Apple bee's on Bayfield with a group of four. Atmosphere is average good and looks like any typical dining bar restaurant. Service was awful. We ordered 2 steaks, ribs and fried shrimps. We ended up waiting 2 hours for our food. Waitress barely ever came to our table aneverytime we called her she would always ignore... more

Overall worst dining experience ever
September 15, 2013

I attended Applebees with doubled (previous reviewer) and she was actually gentle in her review. I wasn't expecting much from Applebees - a standardized franchise menu served in a timely manner and a moderate bill. What I got was no utensils, no booster seat for my child, I told the server I was ready to order, she said she would... more

My friends and I have a tradition of twice yearly get togethers. This time we chose Applebee's because of the convenient location.

Two hour wait for two sandwiches and terrible service

I don't expect much from Applebee's, as it's just a cheap-ish chain restaurant, but I do expect the service to be halfway decent and the food to be somewhat quick. My husband and I showed up at this location for dinner around 5:30pm on a Tuesday night. They weren't very busy, but the wait was horrendous. We ordered a reuben... more

September 22, 2012

Took the kids 10 and 12. Service was excellent - Thanks Chris. Steak was perfect. Fajitas were spicy and hot. Fish and chips were crisp. We even had entertainment with the 2 year old twins next to us feeding the floor their mac and cheese (which was funnier than it sounds). Excellent food and service in the this price range.

Good food for a good price
August 27, 2012

The only thing I don't like about Applebee's is it really only has booths, and they are low. When you are a larger person, this makes getting in and out difficult and uncomfortable. Steaks were well flavored, service was good even though they were extremely busy. Hardly any wait at 7":30 Saturday night to get seated.

I had hear of Applebee's before, (who hasn't?), but it was my understanding that this "restaurant" was an American phenomenon and had not made its way north of the border, so it is easy to imagine my delight? Surprise? There isn't a word but imagine horror combined with unchecked enthusiasm and then you have what I felt. The interior was not a gaudy as I expected but then again I pretty much... more
