Why The North Coal? The concept was created by the feeling of being away from city life with family and friends. For us, that’s Northern Ontario, but as lucky as we are to experience that way of life, not everyone is. Our mission is to provide that feeling regardless of your surroundings.

Located in the heart of Downtown Burlington, The North Coal is the perfect place for Summer Drinks, Family Dinners or just a place to kick back with your friends after a long week!

    Salad was good but unremarkable. Overpriced imo for size and ingredients. I didn't have them, but others at the table commented that the wings were very good. They seem not to pay attention to dietary/allergic situations as 1 of our party, a strict vegetarian, had ordered a salad without protein and another had ordered a salad with chicken. The chicken was placed on the wrong salad. The server took back the salads and the kitchen just took the chicken off of 1 and placed it on the other, oblivious to any potential issues in doing so. Also, there doesn't seem to be any difference in sizes between the starter and the entre size salads. Happy Hour wine is a good value. Overall not a bad experience. Not a great one either.. very middle of the road

    Great service from the moment we walked in the door. Food options were great; lots to choose from. Flavours and portion sizes were really good and the live music was fantastic! We're going back; thanks so much to all the employees and the entertainment for a great dinner experience.

    Cozy, only sports tv was behind the bar which is a good thing for us since we couldn’t see it. The other tvs had a fireplace scene running. Very nice.

    It was a lovely Tuesday evening with great food, service and ambiance. In addition there was live good listening music that served as soothing background music that did not interrupt table conversation. This place is a true gem that its loyal clientele hope will leave the downtown area.
