Review from Tina H.

A friend and I came here for their Sunday brunch buffet. One of the best breakfast buffets ever, which comes to around $20 after tax. Good value and high quality items.
They have an omelette bar where they can make you an omelette, and a customized mini pizza section with interesting toppings like roasted red peppers, asiago, smoked cheddar, smoked chicken, arugula, asparagus and artichoke (among more normal things).
Mini waffles that are fluffy and can be topped with chocolate or raspberry sauce and whip cream. Lots of standard breakfast items (home fries, sausage, scrambled eggs).
Their desserts were yummy too. Raspberry jello (which was actually good even though I don't like jello), rich chocolate brownie, delicious carrot cake, fruit and even a chocolate fountain.
I'm impressed that there is actually a good breakfast place in Whitby. Good value for what you get.
Service was friendly, and the guy making our stuff was very careful, meticulously placing everything just right on the pizza (which is a nice attention to detail you don't find many places).
I've been to a few places for brunch in Whitby and Pickering and so far out of the ones I've tried I like this one most. -

Went to this place hoping for a great meal and thanking god Krebs had been replaced with Shrimp Cocktail meets Hot Rocks, this was supposed to be a great night out... Not so, sadly
The service was average, It wasn't a busy night. (owner at the bar eating his meal, bartender aparently seeking more shifts) didnt leave the bar to take our drink order, finally after 10mins he yelled over... not a great start but we were hopeful for a better finish... not to be had, long story short, service was extremely poor as was the cold food.
Will not be going back. -

I have been back twice since my original rave review and have had mixed feelings, hence I am dropping them down a bit for now to 3 stars.
Where they have real highs on the menu they have had some real lows ( Like their Ribs that were were the worst ever and now off the menu).
Last time we were here I had the the Seafood Paella but found it had no layers of flavour and tasted like one muddled mess of paprika and whatever sausage they had used for as a base on top of rice that was borderline hard.
Now on the high notes the Fresh pickeral filet my wife had was AMAZING and I would go back just to have that.
after this..All of us had apple crumble for dessert and it had a terrific topping but barely cooked apples under it...WTF?
Consistancy is the issue here and it leaves me really struggling as I really like the place and they just need to stop screwing up the odd thing as much of what they do is brilliant.1 Previous Review: Show all »

This restaurant was formally Krebs Restaurant, but the location was bought and renovated by new owners.
The interior of this restaurant is beautiful. Huge comfortable booths with big high backs. Contemporary spacious decor. We counted 3 separate seating areas, 2 of which are atriums.
We visited during lunch and for the most part had a great experience. Serving sizes are perfect for lunch and for the price.
I had the Hot Turkey Sandwich, an open faced stack of turkey served on a half kaiser with a baked potato, and vegetable (broccoli, cauliflower and parsnips).
My wife had one of the specials, Prime Rib on a Hoaggie, with fried peppers and onions. Served with a side of french fries (which were tasty).
The reason why it was a great experience for the "most part", the prime rib wasn't trimmed, and had plenty of fat still attached. My wife had to open the sandwich and remove it with her hands. -
Review from Kyle J.

After reading the few reviews that had been posted here, my wife and I decided to give The Brock House a try for lunch - best decision we've made all month.
My wife had the Sheppard's Pie and despite having already read that it was huge, we were both still surprised at the size of it. It was so big my wife could only finish half of it. Made with angus beef and cheddar mashed potatoes, it was one of the best Sheppard's Pie's we've had.
I had the daily sandwich special, which was an open-faced prime rib sandwich with swiss cheese and chipotle aioli, served with sea-salt chips (which seemed like they were made in-house, but I forgot to ask). The serving wasn't as huge as the Sheppard's Pie, but more than enough and very tasty.
My only disappointment was that I was looking forward to having an Orange and Maple Creme Brule for desert, but after ordering was informed that it had been changed to Strawberry and Vanilla Creme Brule. I did appreciate that our waitress was considerate enough to come out advise me of the change in the desert and to see if I still wanted it.
While there are some more expensive items on them menu, our meals (plus two drinks and coffee) only came out to $32 before tip, which I thought was a great price for the meal we'd just had.
My wife and I spent the rest of the afternoon discussing our experience at the Brock House and will definitely be going back again... and again... and again... -

I have been to the Brock House many times, for dinner. lunch and brunch on Sunday's have yet to be disappointed, the menu is always being updated, which is awesome, love the seasonal menu's and the rotating beers they have on tap! Sam Adams is a great beer to have! I have been back many more times in the summer as they built this wonderful patio terrace which kept me going back in the summer as opposed to the year before when they did not have one and i would look for another place elsewhere. Kudos to the staff and ownership at the Brock House as they continue to impress me and whoever i bring in with me there.
