The Kind of Place You'll Want to Come Back to...
Some places you find. Some places find you. The Tankhouse on Trent is a locally owned waterfront pub right in the heart of Buckhorn, just 25 minutes north of Peterborough on the shores of Buckhorn Lake, beside the Trent Severn Waterway Lock 31 - Buckhorn.
We're not trying to be everything. We just want to be exactly what you need at the end of a good day on the water: a cold drink, food made with care, a patio that faces the right direction at sunset, and staff who actually know this place and are glad you're here. Buckhorn has been drawing people to the Kawarthas for generations, and the Tankhouse fits right into that tradition, a neighbourhood pub where the pace slows down and the views do the talking.
As a proudly local business, we believe in the community that supports us: local people behind the bar and in the kitchen, quality ingredients sourced close to home, and a genuine interest in making every guest feel like a regular. Whether you're spending a quiet afternoon on the patio, gathering the family after a day out on the water, or making us part of a longer visit to the Kawarthas, we want every visit to be one you remember, and one you come back for.
Come for lunch. Stay for the sunset. Bring the people you like spending time with.
Reserve a table, we'll take care of the rest. Find us in Buckhorn, right by the locks, right on the lake.
Good Food, Full Stop.
