| Nice enough bar in a prime location on Yonge Street that's a good place to eat and sink a few beers but which is about as wide of the mark in terms of being an authentic British pub as it is possible to get wihtout visitng a Goose & Granite! The environment is nice and has the traditional wooden bar with pillars and a plush but ugly carpet, but thereafter the similarities with a real boozer end. Sit at the bar though to enjoy some good Canadian beers(better than the imported and sometimes badly served British beers) and some much more professional and friendly bar service. Waitress service is available elsewhere in the pub and is always spot on. Over half the pub is given over to tables primarily designed for the service of food and the food is very nice indeed and is served in generous portions but once again authenticity on the "traditional" dishes leaves something to be desired but fortunately the food is good on its own merits. Somewhat more expensive than other bars in the neighbourhood but a nice enough place to visit and a goo dsource of unintentional humour for those of us lucky to have drunk in a genuine British pub.

| A British style pub for homesick Brits or those that think Eastenders is a true reflection on British society!! The only beer that's on handpull is London Pride everything else including the Bass was fizzy. The food was nice, the staff attentive, toilets were clean etc but sorry guys, this just didn't work for me. (I should also point out we visited another pub in the same chain at the Rideau Centre, Ottawa and it was the same). Phantom_Raspberry - 2 Oct 2005 16:18 |
