Transcona Country Club, Winnipeg Reviews (3)
This was the worst hall I have ever been to.was there last night for a Halloween social. Bathroom was gross smelt of urine.no water to wash your hands.45 minutes to wait in line for a drink.never would recommend this place. Should close down.
I attended a grad ceremony held at the Transcona Country Club, to my digust the food was all premade. What I mean by premade is that it was store bought, dumped out of a package kind of food. Premade potato salad, premade coleslaw, meatballs, potatoes..the list goes on. Why on earth do you not sell fresh made food? It would have been so much better.
What a beautiful wedding.. what a horrible establishment: Transcona Country Club. Where to begin? On the surface everything looked beautiful. Well, except for the unkept bathrooms. When we found our seating arrangement we quickly sat down to begin the festivities. Being at this special occasions we quickly poured a glass of red wine (which, to our surprise, was not corked.. and neither were any of the other bottles), and to our disgust there were chunks in the wine. We soon found out that the chunks in the wine, that I failed to see until I brought my glass into the light, were fruit flies. I was chewing on about 2 dozen of them in my mouth. When asked for a new bottle, here came another filled with fruit flies. When asked for a third bottle, here came another (or the same) bottle but a third empty... Really, you’re going to skim the top of the wine and claim it’s a fresh bottle? Be more clever than that! This unfortunate matter was not isolated to our table. What made matters worse was the lack of professionalism by both staff and the management. Staff members were clearly instructed on more than one occasion to put out 1 bottle of wine per table, not 2. The bride and groom were being charged for all of this extra wine, including the bottles filled with the disgusting fruit flies. To add to the bill, bartenders were instructed to serve singles, not doubles, but doubles were being served all night long. At the end of the night, when bride and groom wanted to go to their humble abode as husband and wife, the infested wine and doubles added an extra $$$$ to the total cost. Coming from a health/nutrition background and having managed in the restaurant business - I understand things go awry, but you apologize and clear the matter up as quickly as possible for the sake of your business and for peace of mind for the patrons involved. When I presented the manager with my disgust in the establishment, he had complete disregard for the traumatic experience that I had undergone (having chewed through my wine), and did not apologize. Many tears were flowing between bride and groom, but only cold, callous, and calculated $$ remarks from the individuals at Transcona Country Club. Now, is this the way YOU would like to spend your wedding evening? I think not.
