Herongate Barn Theatre

admin — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 14:32:43 +0000

The century old Herongate Barn Theatre began as a dairy farm, and it housed animals typical to this kind of farm until the 1970’s when it ceased to be economical. It served as a location for auctions, barn dances, and hayrides until 1975 when it was converted by the Ward family for use as a theatre. It is now a truly unique dinner theatre experience. Where else can you dine in a bull pen or manger, and sit on a theatre seat that originally came from the historic old Victory Burlesque Theatre in Toronto?

At Herongate we work hard to ensure you an excellent meal and a delightful season of quality entertainment. We also offer special rates for groups and organizations wishing a special evening or fund raising event.

The Preston Pub

admin — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 23:25:43 +0000

The Preston Pub is founded on a rich history of family fun and tradition. The Preston Pub was named after Robert Preston who was both the original owner of the property and the Mayor of Oshawa from 1926 to 1930. Robert Preston and his family resided in a home built on the northwest corner of the property.

His property also offered a tourist camp which provided recreation and entertainment. People from near and far came to enjoy the scenic cabins the camp offered; paddle-boating, swimming, viewing various animals on display (especially the two monkeys Maggic and Jiggs), and enjoying delicious food from the unique ‘tea-pot’ diner.

To give you an idea of the camp’s uniqueness, the famous diner was actually an old railcar from Oshawa which featured a six foot tea-pot on it’s roof, which had actual smoke coming out of it’s spout! People came from miles around to swim at the camp’s dam where Preston provided changerooms by the creek.

Today the Preston Pub provides a cozy atmosphere to have a pint and enjoy Pub Fare! The unique stone floor and fireplaces provide an environment unlike any other pub in the area. Friendly wait staff and great food also make the Preston a great choice!

Live bands on Friday and Saturday night, open mic night on Thursdays!
