My husband and I have dined here several times and have never been disappointed. Everything on the menu is fantastic, including the oysters, and drinks. Atmosphere is so cozy and romantic. Great space for adults going on dates or meeting friends over wine. This is THE best place to dine in KWC.

Fantastic food and service. Amazing drink selection too. And all the staff are super friendly and helpful. It may look a bit bougie from the outside but it's a very "fancy but not pretentious" place. You absolutely could come here and dress up for a romantic date night/dinner. Or just come as you are for some bar food, burgers and drinks and they will make you feel just as welcome either way. And you are not going to find a better deal on oysters *anywhere* than their buck a shuck special on Wednesdays. My only regret is I didn't find this place sooner!

We have been looking for "Our spot" here in KW, and we have finally found it. Everything at Public Kitchen & Bar is spectacular, from the eye-catching interior design (get lost in the book titles on the bookshelf!), to the incredible service, wonderful music and ambiance...and oh yeah, the food is pretty amazing too! We highly recommend the Monday Night "Part Italian" feature, and their creative cocktails and mocktails. Aside from everything always being top-notch, perhaps the best thing I can share, is that we always leave Public in an amazing mood, with smiles on our faces.

Went for buck a shuck on a Wednesday. Also got some other dishes along with the oysters. Everything we ate was good. Fun atmosphere. Service was a bit slow, I imagine it’s cause of the buck a shuck night. Would/ will return!

This place was amazing! Do not judge a book by its cover…I wasn’t sure based on the outside, but it is a vibe! My husband and I went for date night and it did not disappoint! We love sharing plates and we were able to try many dishes. The food was well balanced and seasoned well. We loved the diversity of dishes. Joseph was an amazing waiter! There wasn’t any real problems and he took care of us. The drinks were so well balanced. My husband said the mocktails were the best he’s had. I had the blue martini and loved the hint of lavender! I did not have a drink that tasted like flowers. We were blown away with the service, food, and ambiance. If we are back in Kitchener, we would definitely come back!
