Ashburnham Ale House - Peterborough, Ontario

The Coconut Chicken Curry Tastes EXACTLY like Butter Chicken. I don't see a difference, not one bit. It tastes great obviously. Perfect taste. There was a home-made tzatziki on the side but when you dip the chicken with it, it makes it horrible because the tzatziki has this odd sour taste ... to it which is a bad taste. The Coconut Chicken Curry is PERFECT itself. Great service. The waitresses are Great. The dish was served with less Basmati Rice. I needed more Basmati Rice, asked for more, & they gave me another bowl free of charge. Thank you so much! This is overall a great spot - Ashburnham Ale House. One of the better pubs here in Peterborough. Read more

A great spot to grab a bite! I got the Greek Burger, and while it wasn’t what I was expecting, it was still super tasty! Dip it in the mustard, trust me! Service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere is excellent. I was quite fond of the art around the ... room. Next time in Peterborough, I’ll be sure to stop in. Read more

I remember when this new restaurant opened in 2013 and everyone was talking about it. I had just accomplished a very tough licensing exam and was going to celebrate my victory. I chose the Ashburnham Ale House as the whispers across town were strong! The restaurant is interesting with historic ... maps, antique decor, warm fireplace and a strong wooden atmosphere. The windows allowed the natural light into the space and there was local art work proudly displayed on the walls. The menu has dishes I had never enjoyed before. I have not ordered a single item from this establishment that I did not enjoy to my core. My little foodie heart has always been so excited to attend a lunch or dinner here. Scott and Nollie have figured out the five star dining experience. From the helpful and knowledgeable staff to the delicious food brought out perfectly every single time. You will not be disappointed here and you will find a unique beverage or menu item to enjoy! Update: Every single time I am at this restaurant I feel taken care of. Our waiter went above and beyond this evening to allow for my friend and I to sit outside on their beautiful private patio (the trio on the trail) than made our delicious Kir Royale drinks and delivered our cone of fries quickly so that we could share a moment of happiness (away from jobs, children and wife life) and decompress for 30 minutes. Thank you kind sir ♥️ Read more

Visit April 4, 2024 for late lunch. Extensive beer and beverage list with some seasonal options. Solid menu selections. Food was great and prepared promptly. Thursday and weekend evenings may be busier times. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. Lovely decor with historical accents. Would highly recommend.

I ordered the steak frites. For 30 CAD with fries and arugula, which is a really good price. The ambience and service was very good but not excellent so 1 star less. Taste wise a 5 the sauce for the salad was heavenly and the steak war perfectly seasoned.
