Dispatch

We absolutely LOVED our experience there, and will be enthusiastically recommending Dispatch to our family and friends! The food was very tasty and innovative, with the flavours spot-on. including the dessert. We each had the apple crumble with Gorgonzola-thyme ice cream. Our server was very attentive and personable, without being obtrusive.

Dispatch is by far one of the best restaurants in all of the Niagara Region. Every dish & cocktail we had was made with great care & expertise and that came through in the flavours. Also, get the cheesecake, it’s the best I’ve had. As someone who eats out a fair bit, this should be top of your list.

Amazing dinner. I wasn’t expecting the dining experience that we had. The flavours, presentation and preparation were perfect. We took a few recommendations from our server that turned out to be perfect. A hidden gem, perfect for a night out, or dinner before a show. The espresso martini and the cheese cake are to die for.

It was a memorable experience. Probably in my top 3 of best foods I had in my life. The waiter was super passionate and was extremely nice and helpful to us. The atmosphere was great, not too loud, comfy seats and great overall vibe. The food was on another level, it was delicious with its great combination of flavours, textures and creativity. The cocktails were also super fun and had very unique flavours. I strongly recommend this place for people looking for great experience that they will remember for a long time. *The staff also really cares about satisfying every customer

We've been for cocktails, dinner, and brunch. Everything is amazing and some of the food is truly mind-blowing. The eggs benedict is phenomenal, highly recommend. We also got the croque madame and were stuffed - in a good way! The staff are so kind and energetic. The cocktails are unique and delicious. Honestly, no complaints!

My wife and I came here on our visit to St. Catherine's during the winter holidays; located in downtown St. Catherine's, this restaurant is located in the first suite on the main floor. Their sign is hard to read at night in the photos, but is well designed with a nice logo. Being in downtown, parking may be hard to find; there is paid metered parking, but parking is free on the weekends and free after 6pm on weekdays. We were greeted by a staff member who was not wearing any uniform but in casual clothing. None of the staff had uniforms but looked very relaxed and welcoming. The atmosphere was very welcoming with little lighting but definitely enough to light up the place and to provide great ambiance. The staff were very friendly and even sparks conversations with customers. One thing our waiter pointed out was that they do not take tips/gratuities which was a bit different than what most North Americans are used to. My wife and I got fried olives, Thai popcorn, smoked salmon cones (comes in three), one duck bao, and one lamb slider. Out of what we ordered, I recommend the smoked salmon cones, duck bao, and lamb slider. The smoked salmon cones came in a bowl of black beans (not edible but decorative); the shells were delicate and broke easily when bites but tasted pretty good. The duck bao was a bit bigger than the lamb slider but both were fairly small. Even though they were small, they were very flavourful. Even though we didn't get a "main" dish, I find this place more fitting for casual get-togethers than a full meal. The digital menu is rather small, with the drink portion bigger than the food portion. Since the menu is so small, I think a well-designed physical menu might be more practical or appealing. Having said that, their prices are fair and the food is not too bad. Overall, I highly recommend giving this place a try. With the exceptional service and heart-warming atmosphere, this will definitely be a highlight to any trip made to St. Catherine's, whether if you are a local or from out of town.

What a great find on a weekend out in wine country! Jake was our server and was so so kind, and had some great local recommendations for us to check out. The food from the kitchen and the drinks from the bar were so lovely - fun and engaging food that was interesting and filling! Cool takes on really nicely technically-executed dishes that were fun to share. Super cool that they’re a living wage employer, too. The value was shocking when we got the bill. Great job, Dispatch!

Popped in for a late afternoon Sunday brunch - place was empty but service was great. The food - we had the Fries, Calamari, and Baked Brie - was unreal. Very easily sharable or edible on your own. The seaweed Fries was one of the most unique things I have had in ages. Lots of very small unique craft brews as well - not your run of the mill 'major craft' beers - lots of different stuff here. All in all, great and highly recommended.
