The Keg Steakhouse + Bar - Brandon, Manitoba

I had the blackened chicken and it was not done enough and I got sick from it. It took me almost a week to recover from. I cut into the thickest part and it was questionable but with the dim lights seemed like was maybe ok. Nope should ... have gone with my gut and had it cooked a few more minutes. I did leave a portion of that over. Otherwise the meal was great. Previously they had cooked it more. Next time I will request the chicken just be cooked a bit longer if it comes to the table at the almost barely done mark. Read more

Visited March 17, 2024. Dinner before a concert. Our server was excellent. He knew the menu back to back and graciously answered all our question. The food was fantastic as was the atmosphere.

Normally The Keg is our Go To for special occasions, we celebrate birthdays & our anniversaries there. The last couple times, January of this year 2024 & November of 2023, we haven’t been that impressed. The service is ALWAYS GREAT but the food well, I don’t know, it’s just not ... the same. I don’t know if they have different chefs or what but even the cheesecake isn’t the same (it used to be light & fluffy, melt in your mouth, now, not so much). Oh and the last couple times, they’ve seated us right under the air vents & this last time they said they couldn’t shut the air conditioning off because it was broken (it’s the middle of winter!). Sorry Keg but I think it’s time for us to change it up & maybe make Brown’s Social House our new Go To. Read more

Maybe The Keg isn't somewhere you'd think to go for good wings, but you'd be mistaken! The Three Pepper Wings are only on their bar menu and not always available. I had the chance to try them a week or so ago and was not disappointed. The chicken was crispy ... and without all of the fat that some wings can have. They were served with what I'm assuming was a three pepper sauce, which was a mild heat but gave a good kick at times, along with a light blue cheese dressing. There were plenty of blue cheese crumbles on top. I thought the sliced celery was a nice touch because it was incorporated into the dish rather than an afterthought on the side. It's a great dish for those who want to take "wings with a side of blue cheese" to the next level! -1 because I think $17 for 8 wings is expensive, but still something that I'd want to order every so often. UPDATE: I highly recommend the Prime Rib Sandwich as an alternative to the traditional dinner menu items -- it's less spendy and just as tasty! The tender meat, strong horseradish (it's the best at The Keg), and generous portion of red wine herb jus were all very flavourful. I substituted a Caesar salad instead of fries at no additional cost. It's only $16 during cocktail hour on the bar side. I'll be going back for it again very soon! Read more

A truly ‘safe bet’ for a great meal. The restaurant was busy but not packed (that’s a good thing). Very clean. Excellent staff and service. Our waitress (Jocelyn) was attentive and had a great sense of humor. We were there during their Summer Lobster special menu. The lobster bisque was possibly ... the best I’ve ever tasted. Everyone had a steak combo and all were very good (as you’d expect). Dessert was a shared ‘Billy Miner pie’ and strongly suggest saving room for this (best to share…it’s quite generous). Lots of parking and clean washrooms. Read more
