The food is consistently good. I have been here a couple times when we visit the area. A bit on the salty side and lacking in veg options. Most things are gluten-free which is important for myself due to celiac disease. We find it on the pricey side in comparison to other Mexican or Latin eateries. Service is always fantastic, and they have a nice patio.
Absolutely incredible. Have been at least 20 times in 2 years. Always fresh and incredibly tasty. My wife is celiac and allergic to wheat and it’s safe here
I went here today with my son for the first time. The atmosphere was so good. The food was much better then I expected it to be. Service was quick and good. They had kids chopsticks and lots of gluten-free options.
While they have nice seating, good gluten free options, and friendly staff, it is too expensive for what you get, small portions, with clearly frozen fries.
Full disclosure: we had originally attempted to get a reservation at the Keg but they were booked. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as Berc’s was far and away the superior experience.
Waitstaff was very friendly and helpful, the ambiance is classic fine dining aesthetic and the meal value is very high for the price.
As a celiac I was pleasantly surprised by the addition of crackers in place of bread prior to the main course; my typical experience is watching my wife eat bread by herself so this was a nice touch.
We had our 7 year old with us and were grateful for catering to his taste with some plain butter pasta that he raved about.
All adults agreed that our meals were excellent too and overall the consensus was Berc’s provided a 5 star experience.
Thank you to the staff and owners for a memorable 40th birthday dinner.

Highly recommend avoiding this place. They gave me food poisoning. I was supposed to get a call back from a manager but that never happened. I also have celiac and told the waitress but they still brought my food out with a side containing gluten.

This is the best boardgame cafe I've ever been to! I've wanted to go to boardwalk since they opened but I'm not from the area so I haven't been able to make it before now. It was so worth the wait!
They have a great variety of games in their library. They organize them with colored stickers so you can find a game that will fit your group size, difficulty, and age group needs. It's perfect for people who may want to try an expensive game before spending the money on it. The employees are super knowledgeable about the games and can give tips and recommendations if you need any help. The cafe is well lit so it's the perfect place to play. There was a boardgame pub in my old town that had low lightning to give it more of a nightlife vibe, but you couldn't see the games very well; so this was a pleasant surprise.
The menu variety is phenomenal. They have vegan and gluten free options. The thing that stuck out the most to me was that you can substitute gluten free bread for your sandwich for NO EXTRA COST! I've never seen a menu that treats people with dietary restrictions like humans. Also, the cookies are made to order and they definitely live up to the hype!
I will absolutely be back and I can't wait to try more games!
Our server Micheal was fabulous with rushing the kids meals to help keep them settled. he paid attention to specific order changes (celiac) and was prompt with drinks and checking in frequently.
10/10 will visit again because of his charming demeanor
Really great 100% vegan restaurant in a cute spot with great service. The jackfruit bowl was perfect. Everything I saw come out looked amazing. Gluten free/gluten free option items clearly marked on the menu. This place is a must try!
This is a very nice spot for the family or even a group event. There are sooo many different options that there is bound to be something for everyone. There are vegan as well as gluten free options as well. The staff are really friendly and the location is great.
The food is lovingly homemade by this family owned and operated restaurant. It is insanely flavourful, caters to many diet types including gluten/dairy free menu items and vegan/vegetarian options. You will never have a poor experience. Highly recommend.
Side Note: if you loved the Samosas at Pinto's Corners, you now know where to find them again 😉 you're welcome!
My friend raved about “The Pin” for months! I finally got the opportunity to eat here tonight. I started off with the Caesar salad. The bacon jam was mind blowing! Complemented the flavours of the salad perfectly. There were so many layers of flavour adding so many dimensions and putting a modern spin on an old classic. The steak with red wine butter, roasted veg and potatoes was cooked to perfection. The steak was juicy and melt-in-your-mouth tender. Once again, there was perfectly layered flavours that made my taste buds jump for joy. It ranks up there with some of the best steaks I have ever had! I finished with a cheesecake (gluten free) that was the perfect way to finish this meal. My friends had the duck Wellington and stuffed chicken. Everyone was extremely pleased with their meal. Our server was very friendly, personable and very attentive. He made our dining experience delightful! If you are looking for a wonderful evening out and awesome food I highly recommend the pin!
Before I get into this review; I am a celiac and have been attending this location monthly for the past year. This place is AMAZING. The menu options are always a hit, I’ve never left feeling unsatisfied. Also- they are always so great with avoiding cross contamination as my gluten allergy is incredibly sensitive to even the slightest contact. The people who work here are always so kind and helpful with menu options for allergies. Definitely my fav place for a great dinner out in PTBO. 10/10 🙌
Had a new experience dining at Fresh Dreams in Peterborough on Saturday night.
The atmosphere was a little cold and I found the tables too close together for my liking.
The service was excellent, prompt and efficient.
The food was delicious and honestly the best scallops i’ve ever had.
I was not a fan of how the meal was served though. I like to eat a meal with a veggie and a starch on the same plate with my protein.
Instead, at Fresh Dreams, they serve everything separately. Not a fan. I felt it took away from my dining experience.
I loved that they offered a gluten free desert. 😊
Overall, a great experience but I probably won’t be back.
Great pizza, love the BBQ chicken! Had a gluten, vegan cheese bbq chicken as well. Very friendly staff, helped us pick a combo to add wings and a drink. Will definitely be back.
Update. These guys are amazing and it has become our regular spot. They ran out of goat cheese one night for an order. It wasn’t a big deal but they went out of their way to go find more to make sure our pizza was perfect! Amazing guys! Great service! The BEST pizza!
Went for lunch today. Loved our selections. Delicious, full of flavour, and totally delightful. Lots of gluten free and dairy free selections on the menu which are clearly indicated. Very warm friendly staff who gave us lots of great suggestions. Love this place. We will be back!
My boyfriend and I love Friday date night at Capra Toro Peterborough.
The food is fantastic and the ambiance is energetic, and fun.
The service is impeccable and the staff is attentive and friendly.
The only negative I could possibly say is the pizza crust could be more authentic. My boyfriend said it was dry and seemed store bought quality.
On the plus side, there are lots of gluten free options for those of us with an allergy, which is such a welcome pleasure.
We are diners for life. 💕
We went for breakfast at this restaurant while visiting Peterborough. The portions were generous and everything we ordered was good. The service in particular was excellent. The waitress that attended us was very friendly and on the second day we went she remembered us from the previous day and could remember that my husband is celiac so she was able to recommend the gluten free options.
The food here was delicious, the staff were very friendly and were able to accommodate a gluten allergy! The portions were generous. I can't wait to return sometime soon!
I came in today to inquire about the gluten-free subs. The online allergen menu indicates there should be many gluten-free sub options. However, when I asked in person, the staff said none of the meats are gluten-free? Then what is the point in offering a gluten-free bun? Not impressed.
We came here at a very quiet time so it was nice to get the restaurant to ourselves! We went in with not a clue of what we were going to get but Aman was so nice and helped us decide while also giving a great suggestion for my friend who can’t have gluten! The prices are really good, the portions are great! The food was fantastic! I wish I could’ve gotten a bigger size of the iced chai because it was bomb 😂
As a Mexican from Veracruz, Mexico I can appreciate how much effort and quality goes into this restaurants food and beverages. This is the most authentic place I've found in Canada!
Never close this place, I am in love with your tres leches cake and your birria tacos. Keep it up!
Also my girlfriend is Gluten Free and Dairy Free and there is options, they always make her feel welcome and ensure she is taken care of :)

Maple Moose is usually my go to restaurant. They have a gluten free menu, but you have to ask for it. Anna is my favourite waitress, she is so friendly and caring.
There have been a few times I have gone where the waitress serving me hasn't always been that friendly and the food wasn't that great.
However, it gets 5 stars, because even when busy it is normally great. They even let me stay 30 min after closing to try and finish watching an overtime hockey playoff game.
