Horrible ending to our night, false accusations by their staff...

My friends & I went to this pub as a portion of our celebrating one of their birthdays this evening. For context I & my friends are in our late 30s to early 40s, & we had beforehand gone to another establishment but the temperature was unbearable as they did not have air conditioning so we sought out an alternative & chose Mckibbin's.

Funnily enough, Mckibbin's didn't have AC either but we ended up staying for a few drinks regardless, mostly to appreciate the live music which was quite good. The waitress was good as well, quick & friendly, we had a minor snafu with a couple of the drinks which were not to our liking but the bar graceously replaced them which is yet another solid point in their favor.

Why, you might ask in that case, would I be rating this establishment one star then? Well it all comes down to how we ultimately exited the establishment. We all paid our tab at the table, & finished up the rest of our drinks, still enjoying the music playing. It was a great band by the way, I just have to say. We all ended up leaving after 10-15 minutes & all seemed well, except it was only once we're outside that I found out that apparently one of our group who had gone to the bathroom had been victim of a rather apauling scenario.

He had been in the stall for 10 or so minutes (he was doing what he had to do .. sometimes nature calls), & was interrupted by a knock on his stall only to hear the bouncer tell him he had to pay & get out of the bar immediately. The bouncer aparrently had heard him'sniffing' his nose in the stall, & found that to be appropriate reason enough to accuse him of doing cocaine in the stall, & to force him out of the bar. Of course it did not cross his mind to think that perhaps it had something to do with the bar being at approximately 29 degrees, perhaps my friend simply had a stuffy nose, or perhaps he had allergies, no he heard a few sniffles & that was all he needed to throw out allegations.

Needless to say, I'm completely & utterly disgusted having learned this. Ultimately we left & let things be, we weren't about to bust back in there & cause disruption for no reason we were already on our way out anyway, but to think that this man, employed by this establishment, could be so outlandishly shortsighted is a true injustice. Suffice to say, my friend has never done cocaine in his life, we quite literally made jokes about this man's accusations the whole ride home. Still, I will never go back to this place, because I shudder to think of myself in his situation & what I might do, how it would make me feel to be on the bad end of this kind of person's shortsighted & unfounded accusations.

That said, I urge anyone & everyone to beware of the types of people this establishment has working under its payroll. Most of their staff (everyone else in-fact) were excellent, but unfortunately it only takes one completely rotten apple to ruin the bunch.

Awesome ambiance, great service & great drinks. The food was just okay. I had the bison burger, which was flavourful, but the bun was soggy & falling apart. The French fries were nowhere near the taste you usually get from pub fries, they tasted like frozen fries that weren't fully cooked throughVoir plus

Un resto que j'avais vraiment hâte d'essayer... & une déception totale la place est superbe par contre le service oufff j'ai due courrir après le serveur pour lui dire qu'on avait faim nous étions trois & nous avons tous été déçu de nos plats... le pire a été le fish & chip qui sentait & baignait dans l'huile dommage car la quantité de poisson a l'intérieur était très bien mais le goût ne venait pas avec malheureusement, les frites étaient raides comme de veille frites qui on été cuite à plusieurs reprises. Poliment nous en avons glissé un mot au serveur qui nous a répondu tout le monde est arrivé en même temps désolé, qui pour moi est une réponse qui a aucune sens. 3 petits drinks ordinaires un fish & chips & une entre de nachos partagé 98$. A savoir que le prix ne m'aurais pas t'en dérangé si j'aurai bien mangé. Malheureusement c'était notre dernière fois à cet endroit qui nous semblait t'en prometteur.Voir plus

The service is really friendly but the wait times tend to be a little long. We had to wait about 15 minutes after being seated to order something to drink & then another 15 minutes to get it. It's not dramatic but it can be improved on. The food came in waves instead of all at the same time but it was within normal margins. The quality was there & the portions are good for the asking price. Also, the music & the overall atmosphere was on quieter side wich is a big plus compared to other restaurants/establishments in Dix30 where you can barelly hear the others at your table. All in all would recommend.Voir plus

Food & service is a hit or miss. Been here twice with the first time having great service & decent food. The second visit was horrible. Waited two hours & had yet to get our food. As usual, tables that came an hour after we ordered got their food. The waitress was nice, kept going to the kitchen & telling us it would take about 10 more minutes a couple of times, but still no food. Someone in our group of 6 talked to the manager about the two hour wait for food (all that was ordered was a couple of burgers, a sandwich, wings & fries). She said there was nothing she could do about the wait. They were busy. The place was half empty & it was 9:15pm on Monday night. We kept pressing & she finally said she had to make a phone call to discuss the situation (if you are the manager you should have the power to make decisions & handle problems). Came back with an offer of a round of shots (we refused cause all we wanted was our food). When we said we wanted to cancel the food orders, she gave an offer of a round of beers (again we refused cause we already had 2 beers each & at this point just wanted to pay for our drinks & leave). She gave a final offer of comping a beer if we waited for the food (for some reason she didn't like the idea of canceling the food orders). Another 30 minutes later the food came. It was around 9:45. So after waiting 3 hours for the food order…the burgers, wings & fries came & they were all cold. If there was a table that waited 3 hours for their food, as a manager I would definitely make sure that the order was accurate & piping hot. It feels like the staff said screw these paying customers so that they would never come back.Voir plus
