Local Public Eatery Leaside

“We recently had the pleasure of visiting this amazing spot, and it truly delivered on all fronts. From the moment we arrived, the charming outdoor setting created a warm and welcoming atmosphere—perfect for a sunny day out. The nachos were a standout, layered generously with flavorful toppings and just the right amount of crunch. Pairing them with a beermosa was a fantastic choice—the refreshing citrus notes complemented the snack beautifully and added a fun twist to our evening. What truly elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm, they made us feel right at home and ensured we were well taken care of throughout our visit. All in all, a delightful place with great vibes, delicious food, and excellent service. Highly recommended!”

“This place is a vibe!! Our server Ben was amazing and the food! I wasn't that hungry and wanted a snack so I got the perogies and onion rings. Wow!! They used panko breadcrumbs for the onion rings and they were so good! They weren't greasy and maintained their crispness. The perogies were sheer bliss. The combination of the bacon, caramelized onions, and scallions were a beautiful complement to the cheese perogies. My friend had the blackened chicken sandwich, and my other friend had the fish and chips. No complaints! We'll definitely be back and will try their brunch.”

“The food was perfect, we tried the shrimp dumplings, fried chicken starters, and the baked pulled pork pasta, draft beer was also very good. Kaitlyn was lovely, fast and I loved her suggestions! Will come back!”

“Came here Sunday night and had such a great experience! Christina was our server, and she truly went above and beyond to take care of us. We sat outside on the patio, which was super comfortable and dog friendly. Christina let us use her personal iPad so we could watch the game since the inside was full with reservations. She checked on us regularly, made sure our drinks were always full, and just had an awesome, welcoming energy the whole time. Christina definitely made our visit special. We'll definitely be back!”

“Best and most consistent bar/restaurant in Leaside! Hands down most consistent restaurant in the Leaside area. The drinks and food are always 10/10. For food my recommendation would include the Loaded Potato’s, Beet Hummus, and The Local Burger, also the new curry is amazing. The best drink in my opinion is the Spicy Guava it’s a must try. The service is always stellar here, we had an absolutely 1 of 1 experience last time we visited for my partners birthday. We were treated with such class, and such friendly energy, best restaurant experience we’ve had. Chirstina helped us whenever our server wasn’t around and was very nice. Mia provided and accommodated our time (my girlfriends birthday) with the most passion and integrity. Best server and service. She was very attentive and caring, she made my girlfriends birthday the best. Vicco (the assistant manager) made my girlfriends birthday truly memorable. She celebrated our experience and made us feel loved and genuinely respected. She made her birthday very special. Literally 1 of 1 service and experience, highly recommend The Local Leaside for the consistency, quality and great service. Parking lot is also great and there’s more parking around the area.”
