The Peppercorn Restaurant and Fireside Lounge — Restaurant in Rural Municipality of Springfield

This was our first time at the Peppercorn. We brought our two kids - aged 9.

The service was very friendly, our server had us laughing on more than one occasion.

The food was generally very good and and very plentiful with large portions.

The Spinach Dip was cheese based, was OK, but I was expected a more traditional cream based dip.

The steak I had was very good, done as expected, the garlic mashed was tasty, and was happily surprised when the entree was served with beets as the veggie side.

Kids menu had what one would expect.

Had cheesecake for dessert - it was huge, and pretty good. Share it with the table though, it's huge. One suggestion I would make to the restaurant is to do a sampler platter of each flavour but much smaller pieces.

Including two alcoholic beverages, our bill was a reasonable $100.

Overall, this night out exceeded our expectations and we will...

Entered through the lounge and found a place to sit, after waiting patiently for a good 4 minutes we proceeded to make some noise play some pool in hopes of service, nothing. So we walked to the front and asked for menus. After getting menus 2 more customers walked into the lounge and got served before us. We got the bacon spinach dip that was Luke warm and the chips where pretty dry. I ordered the New York strip medium well that looked like roadkill ran over by a 4x4. One half was rare and fatty while the other half was burnt and chewey. My friend ordered the "Fall off the bone" ribs that where mostly fat and bone and definitely did not fall off the bone and came with a head of broccoli. After eating we grabbed our bills and quickly got out of there. On the plus side the slot machines paid out. 0/5 don't plan on...

The Peppercorn is a nice restaurant in the town of Oakbank. They have amazing steak, and if you have the opportunity to try his cheesecake you won't regret it! (Make sure to share the latter with a friend though as it is quite rich!) I've had a variety of foods from the menu and have usually enjoyed what I've had, with the odd time not. The menu is quite large, I think if it was a bit smaller it would allow them to focus on those pieces and excel at them. The interior could be updated, but I'm not one to focus on that necessarily when enjoying good food! I haven't been to the bar side of the business, but it's usually got quite a few patrons in it. Definitely worth a stop in if you're...
