10:45pm and the bartender tells me that she "saw how I walked in" and couldn't serve me.... I haven't even had ONE BEER. Not one.... To misread a patron that bad when you have clearly been in the industry a long time (older lady) is inexcusable. I worked all day, walked for a burrito with a banged up knee, try to get a beer while waiting for my food and this is what happens? I am appalled.
I have never written a Google review in my life but this compelled me to at least voice my embarrassment for this establishment and hold them accountable. That lady tried to ruin a loving, empathetic, hardworking man's day and I refuse to allow her to have that power. As old as she was, I still can't fathom that someone who has worked in the industry as long as she probably has could misread and misjudge a person to that level. Sadly this is the norm in our city now. I hope whatever is bothering that lady, that she...

She told us the only seating she had was up towards the front but didn’t offer or ask if we wanted to sit at the bar that had plenty of open seats, which is where we normally sit when we go out.

The grilled cheese kind of reminded me of the grilled cheese they would make in our cafeteria in elementary school. Gave that nostalgic feeling but not what I expect when ordering from a restaurant. I’d say this place is good for some drinks with snacks and to...
Read moreWe settled in for an exploratory lunch on a quiet day. Stepping in, I allowed my eyes to adjust to the cozy, dim British pub in the middle of the Toronto urban sprawl. The furniture was brass, green and dark wood. The seats were comfortable and the layout friendly. We were greeted by friendly staff and asked to seat ourselves.
We were met by viki, a quick, friendly waitress who took our orders and made pleasant conversation about the food. Before even testing the food, I was impressed. I tried their Buffalo Chicken Wrap with Sweet Potato Fries and it was phenomenal. The sweet potato fries were perfectly cooked and savoury. The Buffalo Wrap was an unexpected delight, flavors were intense and my drink was at hand to cool my mouth, but all of those flavors were excellent and the chicken was crunchy and perfect.
5/5...
