This place is spectacular! Super friendly atmosphere with servers that are excellent! Food was perfect…we asked for a few adjustments from the regular order and they handled it perfectly! You get a feeling that this place is loved by locals and tourists alike! The world needs more places like this!

Huge portions, Reasonable prices, Great Service. We received refills and take out container without even asking. I had Brie & Apple chicken sandwich & Caesar salad. Some of the best food and service I've experienced.

Went there for dinner last night and it was a relatively enjoyable experience. The food was delicious. I recommend the nachos as an appetizer though there's enough for 4 or 5 people to share with how big the portion size is!
The cleanliness of the place was lacking; no free tables were clean, we were told to sit anywhere and they'd clean it after we sat down which I wasn't a fan of.
Overall it was a decent place to stop for dinner.

Food was delicious. Burger was super juicy and fries crispy and seasoned. Local craft drinks nice and cool. Friendly staff.

Went for lunch at Crave Family Grill & Pub with the family friends and everyone loved this place. Food was great and the service was exceptional. Recommended to book a table before you go there.

Decent bar with excellent food and staff. They close early so check the timings or call ahead of time to plan your visit.

Absolutely pathetic service. My wife and I were completely ignored for over 30 minutes. We weren’t even given menus nor had our drink orders taken at the very least. Pure negligence. A party of four arrived around 20 minutes after us. And were served within 10 minutes. We got up and left after waiting 30 minutes. Don’t waste your time unless the place has no other patrons besides yourself.

We moved here during Covid. The owner greeted us at Market on Mill St.and said we should try Crave so we went tonight with neighbors to celebrate a birthday. Great service, great food, great fun! We'll definitely be going here again on a regular basis! Thanks to the staff!

Such a nice small establishment. It has its own style inside and that makes it unique, but food is really good. I can't remember order we had, but I was unable to finish it, had to take out. Young lady that served us was helpful and patient with us, and most important thing we liked she didn't come to our table every 5 minutes to ask how is everything, thank you. We will be back here, good food, good service, free parking just around corner and right in downtown.

Super friendly and good food! Reasonable priced and service are amazing. This is one of the restaurants that closes later in town. Cozy spot and a good selection of local beers. Happen to see a firefly inside the restaurant, which is interesting. Overall really good experience. Half priced wings after 9pm I recall. Salad is very fresh and loved the dressing (apple vinaigrette)

Food portions were good for the price and it was fresh and tasty. We went there on a Wednesday and the kids meals were $2 which is amazing for the amount of food the kids had. Would recommend the Rancher chicken and the beef barley soup. Their fries were crispy and cooked well. The only down side was the long waiting to get the food after it was ordered. It could have been a day when they were short staffed.

Meal was good, wait person was excellent, however… reservations was made for us well in advance. Upon arrival we said we had reservations, they knew nothing about. About 27 of us sat there for over an hour and half for our food. They should have compensated all of us. Will not be back
08 September 2022 2:22
Wonderful place to stop for a delicious family lunch. Our server Ryan was outstanding! We will be back the next time we visit Point Pelee

We ventured in on a whim while vacationing in Leamington. The restaurant was busy for a Tuesday and the small but intimate patio had just enough space for us to enjoy a Mid Summers Dream of Appetizers and Summer Drinks to cool down after hiking trails and a long drive.

Would strongly recommend stopping by and the Irish Waffle Fries are to die for!
05 September 2022 15:47
Today August 27 went to the Crave to dine in, ordered the Perch dinner wife had Pulled pork with mac and cheese son had shrimp tacos, this place has some of the most horrible service that I have ever had, wiat staff took our order ordered two beers.the Fries over cooked had a soup for a side everything came all at once Son asked for ketchup never came back had to ask for salt and pepper half way through the meal waitress came back ask if all good never waited for an answer and took off all other table around us asked if they wanted more beer and more of anything that they needed, if you read on there web page relaxed and feel like family. What a joke.if there was negative stars I would place -5 stars, Never going back to this place not worth the price and not worth the miss treatment from the waitress
30 August 2022 19:39
Terrible service. Appetizer arrived in time for dessert. Had to ask for everything, from plates to napkins to cutlery. Food was ok.
29 July 2022 17:40
Love their vanilla shake! Delicious!
We also had their mozzarella sticks and nutty chicken salad and would 100% recommend.
Go to the front patio in the summer
28 July 2022 21:47
Went on a Saturday, was slow with the fair in town but none the less, all waitresses and the bartender were doing shots, cussing and swearing up a storm. Myself and wife got pulled pork and it was so dry I’m positive it was reheated left overs. Won’t be back.
21 July 2022 5:18
A great eating experience in Leamington. Clean and well laid out, friendly knowledgeable staff, and yummy food! I had the Irish waffle fries, which have pulled pork cheese and hot peppers, Very tasty! Highly recommended!
25 May 2022 1:59
Had a wonderful experience! Food was delicious and service was excellent! Absolutely fantastic all around, highly recommended!
27 March 2022 7:31
We were waiting for over an 1 hour and a half and we didn’t get our food. I know it was busy but the owner didn’t seem to care that we were waiting then we canceled the order. We also say that other people got their food and they came earlier than us. Also we saw that food delivery’s got their priority over the dine in people. Not recommended
15 March 2022 2:20
I’m not sure if you guys were busy with Valentine’s Day, but I was not pleased with my meal at all. My boyfriend picked up our meals and brought it home. The description on your menu for your grilled chicken and what I got was not even comparable. The chicken seemed like a super small piece that had been beaten paper thin, boiled in water and had a bit of spices tossed on it and maybe grilled for a minute. Not to mention when I took a bite it was cold and SUPER DRIED OUT I couldn’t even eat it. My sweet potato fries were also cold & my tomatoes in my house salad were very soft & mushy. Over all not impressed for a first time eating here!
09 March 2022 19:10
Hands down, the best restaurant in town! Whether you want a burger and fries, a good salad, wings, ribs, or a nice cold beer, you can find it here!
17 December 2021 6:32
Natasha, our server was great! I was one of eight in our party. I had the wings, which were great. Others had Wings, the Perch dinner, Burrito, and salads. Everyone in our party had a great time, and enjoyed their meals. Would definitely would go back.
05 December 2021 18:03
Great Place! We were looking for comfy food and this place delivered. Service was excellent will come back next time we are in town.
13 November 2021 19:11
Great customer service, great food, great prices for so much food. Also really nice to younger children. If you are looking for somewhere to eat in Leamington definitely check this place out.
02 November 2021 2:12
The loaded Irish waffle fries were delight. Everything else food wise was disappointing. Service was amazing though.
26 October 2021 0:54
Well, pretty much everything was closed on Monday so we visited this place and what a surprise. Best Hamburger in a long time, yummy Perch Tacos, cold draft beer, nice local wine, super friendly staff.can't wait to go back!
19 October 2021 13:42
Just had lunch here with my wife and parents. We all thought the food was excellent and the service was also excellent. I had the Jack Jack Tacos (jackfruit tacos) and they were full of flavor. Great experience. My only gripe would be that vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu, but nothing for vegan. I ordered a vegetarian dish and asked them to hold the cheese and sour cream.
04 October 2021 3:36
I cannot rate the food- only the service as we were denied food for lack of medical proof of inoculation even though that is private between my doctor and myself. It wasn’t the fact that we were denied because obviously the communist times we’re living in but rather the WAY we were denied- rude and almost smug with no compassion or sincere apology even though there was only one customer there. No wonder there was no one else! I understand it is hard on everyone right now, but a little kindness goes a long way, even if you can’t serve a willing customer. We weren’t in any way giving attitude, we just stated we did not have our papers when asked and were promptly treated with disdain and dismissal. I do not support that sort of attitude no matter your stance on mandates. If you want to keep your business thriving in the midst of these trying times, please show potential customers a little more dignity and empathy.
19 September 2021 21:41
Have been going here for years and never had a complaint! The service is always top tier and treat you like family and friends.
09 May 2021 11:27
Order:

Perogies waffle fries (Eek, so so yummy)

Beef for the nachos is very tasty, not a of the nachos.

Will order all burgers again lol
28 February 2021 3:36
Finally found a good restaurant open for takeout in leamington! Will definitely be ordering from here & cannot wait to try the rest of the menu haha.

I offered the Texas burger with poutine

Typically I’m not one to write reviews as I also work in the restaurant industry. But unfortunately the service I received on Wednesday evening was just plain rude. If you could even call this service. On My Wednesday, November 18th at 6: 30 pm myself, along with four of my friends arrived at Crave. We stood at the entrance for at least 5 minutes along with another couple who just ended up leaving cause we were all standing there for so long unattended to. Which in all honesty, wasn’t even the issue. I’m fine with waiting to be seated. I understand. The waitress finally greeted us and we told her there was 5 of us total and asked if we could sit upstairs as I know it’s usually open during the winter months. She said no, she could not open upstairs. Which was fine. She then proceeded to tell us she couldn’t seat us AT ALL! She claimed there was no room in the facility for a table of 5. There were only three tables seated in total inside the entire restaurant. One table, the nook beside the bar, was occupied. Along with another table of 5 and one 5 person table was being occupied by one individual who was just drinking a Coke. I know this as a local waitress myself, that he only comes in for a pop, then leaves. All of the tables on the right side of the restaurant were completely empty. We kindly asked the server if we could pull up another chair to one of the 4 person tables. She proceeded to tell us no, she could not seat us what so ever. She didn’t even offer a wait time for another table. It seemed to me that she did not want to be there and was looking to close as soon as possible. It was only 6: 30 pm and we would have been fine to wait in our cars for an available table. This review is no reflection on the food at Crave. The food is amazing! This is entirely regarding the poor service (if you can even call it that) that this lady provided. I have never been declined service at a restaurant that was still supposed to be open for another 2 1/2 hours. If there was honestly nowhere she could of seated us she should of given a wait time. But I don’t think that was the case. I personally, as a server myself, would never have treated potential customers in such a rude manner.

All around a bad place. Ribs are dry, waitstaff wasnt very nice, and found a hair in my food. Will not be returning.
18 August 2019 21:51
Crave is great! They support local sports teams, keep delicious craft beer in stock and have a comprehensive menu. I've really been enjoying their weekly feature, especially the chicken & brie sandwich with green apples.
03 August 2019 18:51
The burger I had was very good and the fries were the best I have had in years. Do you have a smaller portion choice for seniors? I found that there was more than I could finish eating and I hated to waste it. My granddaughter forgot her tablet and our waitress saw it and raced out to catch us before we drove away. Now that is beyond excellent customer service.
31 July 2019 15:36
Server seemed annoyed we were there. The service itself was also slow, but the food was good and came out at a reasonable time. So, I applaud the kitchen staff.
07 July 2019 16:09
. Staff and food was good. We were a table of five and and there 4 other tables with a single waitress. She did very well. The burger i had was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was friendly and slightly older looking. I would recommend this place.
19 June 2019 13:46
It's nice place with variety of options at economical prices. For instance, lunch start $10 with variety of options along with sides like fries, salads etc. & portion of meal is really good. I would definitely go again.
06 June 2019 8:52
Burger was fantastic, right amount of everything on it and cooked awesome. Beers although craft, were not that great, they should look into switching them up
30 May 2019 22:27
Use to visit when it was Gilligan's, think it's even better now. Love the atmosphere which hasn't changed, thankfully it's a very warm and comfortable restaurant the food is still outstanding and our server kept us laughing the whole time and made the experience that much better. Food is priced right and the portions will fill you, upgrade to the chili fries and you could feed the whole table.
29 May 2019 2:02
Went out for supper with some of our kids. Meals were good, service was good. My burger was juicy and delicious.
09 May 2019 7:36
They call it "The $10 lunch meal! Tax included! " with enough enthusiasm to cure the worlds problems from now till the end of time. But, what they don't tell you is that its only $10 bucks without a pop. You can imagine the surprise when I seen a bill for $13 dollars and realized that a watered down Pepsi shot in a glass that had more ice then the iceberg that sank the titanic was worth 3 bits.

What happened to the good old days? When a coke and burger cost you $4 bucks and the Democratic party still had some integrity? When people were kind and honest and didn't try to bend you over for a glass of belly wash?
Does the pop cost so much because they want to rebuild the Notre-Dame? Because, at these prices, It wont belong until there three newly built ones across Paris.

As if the Pepsi was flow across the Galaxy by intergalactic space monkeys with the biological makeup of gold and the talent and dedication of that one guy you met when you were only 17. -

Yeahh, the summer of 78. Good times when you would rock around in that red 1970 Chevy Nova you borrowed from your dad after a night he had been previously drinking ranting about his version of the "good old days. " You had a girl on your arm and some money to spend because we had not yet hit the recession of the late 70's and that Chrysler paycheck was enough to get you by. That strange guy, a friend of the family, who insisted that you and your brothers call him "Uncle Mort". A man who you had bad feelings about, especially when he would sleep over at night. The dedication he had for wooing you with the fact that he could lick his elbow each morning as you combed your hair and shaved your upper-lip. That kind of dedication. Back in a time when you were in the best shape of your life and had not a care in the world because for night now, you were happy and self-sufficient.

But now, 40 years later, you are no longer the young stallion you were. Your stomach is plump and your ears have not been washed since you got married decades prior. Your ex-wife has taken up with a rich Greek jeweler and has taken you for all you have. Your kids want nothing to do with you and you no longer have the Nova - it being lost in the divorce to the lawyer bills you are now remortgaging your house to pay for. The sky seems grayer, time seems to drag by. You try for weeks to build up the courage to leave the empty house you can no longer afford, and when you finally do, you get a sub-par meal from a sub-par restaurant that CHARGES 3 BUCKS FOR A PEPSI.

The meal was fine but I'm still not sure how you mess up onion rings. They were bland and dry and rubber and all the other adjectives Gordon Ramsey uses. The doors to the entrance also suck.

2 stars mate

Not much different from when it was Gilligan's. Service is terrible. Slow, no attention given. Server was sitting with friends and their kids when we arrived. Rest of the meal had her hanging out with her friends instead of taking care of my family. Nobody else there to worry about. Food was only ok. Nothing stellar, overpriced.
07 April 2019 13:22
Ordered a spinach flat bread that said nothing about there being chicken on it.it came loaded with chicken. I assumed it was the one vegetarian option on the list but clearly I was wrong. Also the Caesar tasted like BBQ sauce. All in all this place left a bad taste in my mouth and I generally am not in to complain. Sorry, but you should mark your menu items much more clearly.
12 March 2019 16:05
Had rib and wing combo hardest ribs I've ever ordered from anywhere and cold wings, not a good experience for me.
22 February 2019 11:15
Had an amazing burger here! The staff was friendly and ways checking to see that everything was good. The atmosphere was warm and very inviting. Food was delicious and well prepared!
14 February 2019 3:18
So disapointed. 8 of us dined at 6 pm.wings and fries were cold and over cooked.all oversalted including the french onion soup.burgers were not bad at all.waitress had attitude when issuses were mentioned.crave is off our dining list from now on out.
23 January 2019 21:55
Awesome food. Always friendly. A gem in Leamington. Would recommend the drive out for their burgers. (try the goat cheese!)
