Worst service ever. Got our drinks & our server server came back. Had to ask for the bill at the front of the restaurant. Plenty of other bars to spend your money at.

Great pub after the Elderbrook fest. Can't rave enough about the service from Yanis! He was working by himself & handling a rush of concert goers, with welcoming attitude & prompt service! Did I mentioned he was the only person working making drinks, waiting tables, cleaning, etc? Yanis is the best of the best. He even had time to perform small talks with us! When it was dying down, he was busy cleaning tables, counter top, bar area, etc. I would fly back just for his service!

The poutine was good, but it was also $23. The drinks are expensive too, & my friend said his rum & coke wasn't great. My Mojito was $17💀

Also, the funniest bit was that after a song played, I heard'Want a break from the ads?' blast through the speakers. Damn, for how expensive the food is you wonder where the money goes🥀(for the uninitiated, that's what Spotify plays in between songs when you have the free tier, the paid tier is like $10)

Wouldn't recommend because of the price (good food & service but was not worth what I paid), & avoid buying drinks there at all costs.
