Met up with some girlfriend's this past weekend. Several of the ladies had dined at this establishment previously. They mentioned the food was really good here. We ordered drinks and checked out the menu. I found that there were numerous items on their menu that... more
For what it's worth, the food here is as decent as you'll get around Peterborough, and they have some interesting specials on. But I had perhaps the whitest curry I've ever eaten in my life. No spices, obviously a store bought sauce, and there might have been cheese in it?! I couldn't quite tell.
We love going to Gerti’s. Love the atmosphere and the place is always busy so book ahead. Well worth it. We have been many times over the last few years and have enjoyed everything about it.
Good atmosphere but the food was pricey and wasn't good. Service was average. Not worth the money, I'd recommend One Eighty or even Kettle Drums instead.
Food is average, pricey for what u get. Owners are rude and always seems to look so miserable. Been a few times. Last two times was with other who choose to go there but I won’t be back
So, it's well known that the 'chefs' at Gertis don't really have a clue. That statement shouldn't surprise anyone. You're not going here for great food - it is below average (every dish, some are very below average - like the soaking wet veggie wrap). You're going for the atmosphere and the drinks. It's going to really disappoint a foodie but its a nice spot to relax with friends. The food is... more
The food is extremely average and way too overpriced. I have found pieces of who knows what, and strings of hair in my food here on multiple occasions. I have gone multiple times hoping it would get better, and it never does. The service is horrible, each waitress acts as if they have no time for you at all. The manager is snobby and conceited and uses his position of power to belittle others.... more
Last Friday night we had our first dinner at Gerti's right in the heart of Peterborough's Cafe district. My wife and I were very pleased as the atmosphere was calm, happy and easy going amongst guests and staff. It was very busy, so I suggest... more
Gerti's continues to amaze! This spot has become one of my favs! Friendly service and amazing food. They have an extensive menu with something for everyone. It was a warm, classy pub atmosphere that is welcoming as soon as you walk in the door. Oh!,... more
We actually enjoy the food here and there is lots of variety on the menu. Our guests thought that the portions they ordered were very generous: Salmon & club sandwich and we had fish & chips & a Cobb salad. Our food is always good,... more
Had dinner on a Wednesday night here. It was very quiet at about 6 pm in the evening with only about 3 tables full. The waitress was attentive and friendly. The food was the disappointment. Dinner for two was about $75 and it wasn’t worth... more
Nice spot for lunch, dinner or just drinks. The food is always good as is the service!! And make sure you leave room for dessert :)
During the day they run the East City Coffee Shop with an excellent breakfast menu. Gerties always have specials to complement their menu. Menu is hearty and can be very spicy. Chef is willing to adjust to taste.
Loved their Spaghetti and Meatball sandwich. Will definitely be going there for lunch again.
Every time I'm in Peterborough I make sure I have a meal here. The food is always varied and fantastic (I LOVE the Lamb Shank!) and the staff are friendly, competent, and attentive. I wish I lived closer. You'll never go wrong at Gerti's.
Had a great night with co-workers here recently. Appetizers were excellent, drinks were all really good, main entrees were just 'ok' - the girls who ordered the veal dinner and some sort of a vegetable pasta dish were quite disappointed, and the fries in my dinner were definitely on the burnt side. Overall, a really nice place though, very upbeat atmosphere. Will go back.
Gerti's is my go to spot in Peterborough. great food, comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff. The food is all made form scratch with love... Special orders are no problem as the staff is very accommodating. lunch on the patio, drinks with friends or a full dinner and I'm always satisfied. highly recommended.
We stopped on a Sunday afternoon after a bike ride for a couple of beers and decided to stay for an early supper. We shared a calamari appetizer which was good, and then ordered smaller entrees. He had mussels which are excellent, and I had a warm salad which consisted of grilled veggies, tender grilled chicken, feta and vinaigrette over baby greens. We both loved our meals, especially the... more
Never been disappointed at Gerti's. The food is delicious and the drinks are pretty good. Try the fries with the cajun mayo. The warm salad is also good - some menu items are slightly overpriced but there are great deals in there as well (sandwiches especially).
"dirty gerti's". This place has seen better days, or maybe it hasn't, I never went there when it just opened. It's tired and the food is really disappointing.
Just showed up randomly for dinner this weekend and we were so pleasantly surprised! The menu looked good but I was worried the food might not live up to the billing......well it did and more. We had the chicken supreme and rib eye special for our mains and both dishes were perfect. Just as good as anything we find in Toronto! Plus its less expensive.
One thing though, the wine list (if you can...

Shockingly good, I just want to sit and eat there all day.
Gerti's earns its two stars for the front patio which gives you a great view of Hunter St, one of my favourite places for people watching in Ptbo. The food is the usual "pub" type food, with good-sized portions, but nothing really stands out. The service is lacklustre unless you know the wait staff.
Gerti's is a good choice for lunch, dinner, a quick nibble or drinks. The sandwiches are are huge and come with generous portions of sides. For a quick bite we like to order the bruschetta which is a perfect light nibble for two. The sidewalk patio under the awning is great for people watching. The back patio is secluded and comfortable. The booths are more comfortable that the centre tables if... more
