Pine Yard Restaurant

I have visited this restaurant several times over the past five years while passing through Bancroft. I always plan to stop here for food as I enjoy their Chinese combo plates.The food itself is excellent and always fresh without question.To be fair I did not give it a full five stars for the following reasons:The inside of the restaurant is very clean but dated from the 80s. It could use a renovation with the seat cushions being repaired as they are showing their age with duct tape being used to cover cracks in the cushions.The bathroom needs a renovation. A thorough scrubbing followed by some fresh paint. This does not reflect well on the restaurant, and like I said the food is excellent here. Many customers judge a restaurant by the washroom facilities.In the past the waitress needed to adopt a more friendly attitude. Her demeanor was cold and it seemed like she did not care about the customer. It would have been nice to have her drop by the table during the meal to ask if everything was ok since I wanted more water once and had to get up to ask her. The past two times I dropped in for a meal while passing through Bancroft there was a different waitress who was friendly and more warm toward me. This was a welcome change which I hope continues.If you want good Chinese fare at a very reasonable price and are in the Bancroft area, then I suggest you pay a visit to this establishment.

I had a General Tso chicken combo with rice. It was delicious and its only $8.65 +tax and its a very good portion. I'll return for sure.

A take out storeExcellent quality of food and extremely nice staff.Service was excellent!

Terrible. They lowered their quality of food so bad its actually gross. They refused to refund us for the parts of our order that was wrong. Never gave us a receipt so couldnt show them where they messed up. Obviously terrible service. We ate the fortune cookies at least. One of the cookies had this quote in it. Kind of ironic that we werent charming enough to get a refund for their garbage food lol. Dont go here. drive to peterborough and go to any all-you-can-eat place itll be cheaper and taste better.

We ordered dinner tonight, and I was pleasantly surprised! The orange chicken has real orange chunks in it, and everything we ordered came cooked perfectly. The beef tomato black bean sauce was so tender. I would recommend eating here, really good food.

I couldn't say enough good things about this place! My family and I have been coming here for years for family lunches and me and my fiancee enjoy picking up takeout for at home. The food is always delicious, cooked well and they always provide friendly service! An amazing affordable place in this small town giving an awesome choice when you don't want the usually fast food!

Normally is fast and the food is good, but tonight I called in at 6pm on a Sunday and I received a message saying we are not taking any more orders tonight"WHAT?!?!?! you are open till 8pm how can that possibly?!?!I will be thinking about other spots in town to order my takeout if this is what they are going to operate.Not really reliable it's a shame."

I always enjoy what we get there. These are hard working people and they never skimp on the dishes when it comes to veggies and chicken. Just enjoyed a huge meal for two that was $5 cheaper than eating at McDonalds. Can't beat that!!

Seriously good food! If you want Chinese Food that you can imagine tastes like the real deal over in China ... this is the place to go! It's simple, genuine, authentic and the service is amazing. The order is even written in Chinese, and it's great to see them honouring their heritage, but it's even more awesome that this gem is located in Bancroft!

Dishes are made with care. Ingredients are fresh and the flavors were great! Keep up the good work pine yard, see you again soon!
