King Edward's Arms — Restaurant in Markham

Unimpressed by the food. Arrived around 5:30 pm Friday for supper w/ husband, we ordered french onion soup, beef dip with fries, and English style fish and chips. It was bland and/or soggy. French fries were soggy and greasy, like the fat in the fryer wasn't hot enough. Beef dips are supposed to come with a denser bread with a crispy crust, after all, you are going to dip it in a liquid, it needs to be able to stand up. The bun they used was soft, like a hamburger bun and the bottom was already soggy the first time I picked it up. The beef was beef, I'm not sure they used any seasoning. The jus was flavorless, husband thought it came out of a can. The soup was ok, I've had better, husband had same comment about the fish, he has had better. When the waitress came around to ask how things were we started telling her about the fries, she said yes, that is the nature of the potato, it doesn't crisp up. No effort was made to address the fact that we had just clearly said we didn't like it. We didn't bother mentioning...

1/5 starsDisappointing Experience - Poor Service

We visited this bar on Friday, December 20th, 2024, with a group of 5. Unfortunately, our experience was marred by the attitude of the older bartender.

We were seated on high chairs without back support and politely asked if we could be moved to more comfortable seating. However, the bartender refused, stating that the better chairs were reserved for "special guests." Her tone was dismissive and rude.

We were taken aback by the apparent discrimination and decided to finish our drinks and leave. The bartender's inability to communicate her policy in a respectful manner left a bad taste.

We won't be returning to this establishment, which seems to prioritize certain customers over others. Disappointing experience.

Date of visit: Friday,...

Loved the atmosphere. The server was polite, fast, and professional. Unfortunately the food fell flat. My daughter’s favorite food is butter chicken. She would not eat their butter chicken. I tasted it and it was very tomato heavy, but passed as butter chicken. The scotch egg was huge, but it was the worst scotch egg I have had. The breading was a thin rubbery skin over an odd tasting mystery meat with a slightly over cooked egg on the top. The roast beef sandwich came as a philly cheese steak and had to be sent back. The roast beef that came was dry with a strong herb flavor. When I selected a side, I chose onion rings, but was not told there was a $3 upcharge to pick...
