Chuck’s Roadhouse Bar & Grill

Stopped by for a quick bite after 9 PM when starters are half price, and it was a great choice! We tried the quesadilla, BBQ and honey garlic wings, and mozzarella sticks — all were delicious. The service was friendly and efficient, and we were seated right away with no wait. The only downside was that the food took about 30 minutes to arrive. Overall, a good experience and a nice spot to enjoy dinner with friends if you're in Gravenhurst.

First time at a Chucks and it was pretty good. Had the steak and lobster special. Great deal for $25. Ordered steak medium rare and that’s what I got. Not always the case in some places. Food tasted great and was out in good time. Place is ok. Tables are well spaced and atmosphere is basic sports bar. Will got back to try some of the wings combos.

Was not even seated. Watched 3 staff(kitchen included) at front of establishment mingle while a hardworking blonde bartender worked bar side and we waited for a table or even acknowledgement. After seeing 12 empty tables walking by we assumed it would be a great place for a medium party to meet up after attending a local business owner’s celebration of life for a local dinner. Staff continued to mingle and upon final eye contact, went to kitchen and even stared from that point. Again- bartender remained legitimately busy entire time. We proceeded to leave the establishment and called others to not attend. A shame for the hard working staff and those that hope to attend in all seasons if this is treatment on a weekend in summer at 4:30pm.

We had the chance to visit Chuck’s Roadhouse twice over a weekend—once for a laid-back lunch, and again the next evening to catch the hockey game. I'm glad we did lunch first, because if the game night had been our first impression, I’m not sure we would’ve returned. Lunch Visit: Lunch was relaxed and enjoyable. The staff were pleasant and attentive, and there was no issue finding a seat. The food came out hot and fresh—just the way you hope it will. We ordered the Chuck’s burgers, which are honestly a great deal at just \$9 including fries. I did pay the extra for onion rings and they were worth every penny. The burgers were cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and hit the spot. Hockey Night Visit: Now, the evening we came back for the hockey game was a different experience. We got there at 6:25 p.m. and the place was packed. It's a smaller location compared to the Chuck’s in Wasaga Beach, so seating was limited. We noticed a large table taken up by just two people, which made things tricky for others waiting. It seems like a bit more structure around seating during busy nights would go a long way. Eventually, we found seats at the bar. The atmosphere was energetic—great company, and lots of TVs for watching the game. Service was decent considering how slammed they were, but it was clear the place was understaffed that night. Drinks and food took quite a while to arrive. Sadly, the nachos missed the mark. Very little in the way of toppings, and they were so dry we didn’t even finish them. I’d skip those next time. If you're planning to go for a big game night, I’d suggest arriving at least 30 minutes before puck drop. And just a heads up—you can’t make reservations on game nights. Other Notes: They do have great drink specials and the food prices are very reasonable. After 9:00 p.m., they offer half-price appetizers, which is a nice bonus. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and family-friendly, and there's street parking available nearby. One thing that took away from the experience was the smell of smoke right outside the entrance—both cigarettes and marijuana. Each time the door opened, it wafted into the restaurant, and it really did take away from the dining atmosphere. It might be worth implementing a rule about not smoking near the door. Final Thoughts: All in all, I’m giving Chuck’s Roadhouse in Gravenhurst a solid four stars. When it’s not jam-packed, the food and service really do shine. Just pick your timing wisely.

Extremely Disappointing Experience I had a terrible experience at Chuck’s Roadhouse in Gravenhurst. We waited nearly an hour to be served, and when someone finally came, the service was rude and unprofessional. We only received part of our order with no cutlery and napkins. About 15 minutes later, after unsuccessfully trying to get a server’s attention, I had to leave my seat just to get someone attention. I requested the bill, and only after paying we were given two forks—still no napkins. When I asked to speak with a manager or supervisor, the server walked away without saying a word. This level of service is completely unacceptable. I will not be returning, and I don’t recommend this location to anyone expecting basic customer service.

The food was cooked perfectly and fast and the service was amazing. Thank you Neerja for being so kind, being on timing for everything and caring about your customers as welll. Best server we’ve encountered. Please give her the recognition she needs.

Amazing Experience at Chuck’s Restaurant! I recently dined at Chuck’s Restaurant, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the warm and welcoming atmosphere to the outstanding service, everything exceeded my expectations. The food was incredible! I ordered BRUSCHETTA,PAN GARLIC,LOADED CHEESE FRIES, AND DRINK and it was cooked to perfection—flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The portion sizes were generous, and the ingredients tasted high-quality. The menu had a great variety, catering to all tastes. The staff was friendly, attentive, and professional. They made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed without being intrusive. It’s clear they take pride in providing top-notch service. The ambiance was also perfect—whether you’re looking for a casual meal or a special night out, Chuck’s Restaurant delivers. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!

All the reviews complaining seem like they are expecting 5 star dining experiences from a Chucks Roadhouse. A lot of “pick me for a free gift card” comments. You get what you pay for. Chucks is notorious for affordable drinks and food and if you are walking in here expecting more than that’s on you. This is Muskoka, there are plenty of places to ride your high horse and get your fine steaks. But if you want a pretty good steak for an even better price? This is the place. My friends and so frequent here as we are locals. Some nights the staff are slower than other nights, but it’s a small town that struggles with staffing at most businesses. The wait staff have always been extremely friendly, and accommodating when things go wrong. I love coming here; from the owners to the staff, from the rowdy game nights to the mid day lunch dates, it’s always what you expect and it’s consistent. This place has provided an affordable option for locals to enjoy a night out year round; something that a majority of the seasonal complainers will whine about because they expect their Toronto experiences. Keep it up Chucks Gravenhurst, you have become a staple in town.

Fantastic dinner to refuel after camping. Steaks cooked to perfection, shoestring sweet potatoes & delicious onion rings. Waitstaff were helpful & food was timed perfectly - def worth a visit!
