Portly Piper Pub offers a varied menu, with dishes ranging from classic pub fare to high-end bistro options. While some customers experienced slow service and communication issues in the kitchen, others found the food to be delicious and well presented. The atmosphere is lively, making it a great spot for a night out. The staff received mixed reviews, from fabulous service to slow and unaccommodating. Overall, Portly Piper Pub seems to be a hit or miss experience, with some dishes shining while others fall short. If you're in the Oshawa area, it's worth checking out for its good food and welcoming ambiance.
