We've been visiting the pub for a few months now & we're always very happy with quality of the food & the staff are amazing. They go out of their way to make sure all is well & that their customers can get safely home if the need arise. The music is always on point . I recommend a visit for drinks or dinner or family get together to enjoy this fabulous Pub.
Great night at Wolf. Staff is always so nice (especially Dylan). You accommodated us really well & the drinks are amazing. Thank you for a beautiful night.
Excellent food & service. I would have liked the happy hour explained before we ordered drinks, but I had to ask & it seemed there were some beer choices, not mentioned on the menu, but I could be wrong. Will definitely return.
Great atmosphere especially with trivia night! Went there to celebrate my sisters birthday & it was fantastic & lively. The food was amazing, the mussels were to die for, the drinks were stiff (which is perfect!) & staff were so kind. Can't recommend enough!

We had reservation at 7pm on a Tuesday, but came a 10 minutes early.
Upon arrival, we were greeted right away. Our hostess gave us a quick tour, & proceeded to take us to our table. The ambiance is nice. The music wasn't playing too loudly, so my guest & I were still able to talk to each other without screaming at each other.
Our waitress came quickly to ask if we wanted to order drinks, & event made a recommendation for the mocktail. It didn't take long to receive our drinks, & to give our food order. As we sipped our drinks, & enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant, our entrées arrived: BRAISED PORC CROQUETTES was delicious. 3 pieces of nicely fried croquette was good on its own & didn't need the extra sauce; BURRATA & ROASTED SQUASH served with their own homemade focaccia was beautiful. It says roasted squash in the title, but in the description it was pickled, we definitely got pickled not roasted. If I let my foodie self talk, I would probably have the castel franco, chicory & endives slices more thinly to have a more delicate experience with the burrata cheese. We took a bit of time to eat our entrées because the mains came & we hadn't finished, but the staff was kind enough to grab our plates out of the way for the mains.
SLOW COOKED OX TAIL GNOCCHI had good flavors. The gnocchi were soft as they should be, there were some pieces of ox tail, & the tomato sauce was on point, not too acidic; LAMB ROGAN JOSH PIE was the big winner. The pie was quite hefty, the crust was flaky & well baked. The filling was ALL lamb, so definitely have your protein intake. It was accompanied by a goat cheese beet salad (salad of the day) & it was a perfect balance. We took the leftovers home!
The restrooms were clean, so always a plus!
All in all, the experience at this establishment is a 5 star for me. Friendly staff, clean place, great décor, lots of personality & flavorful foods. I highly recommend.
A fantastic atmosphere, the place was buzzing. The food was great & service a little slow to start as the place was so busy but it was only about 10-15 mins. We then quickly got drinks & was able to take out time & just enjoy ourselves. Great waitstaff .
From the excellent wait staff to the delectable food & drinks to the fire playlist, we had a perfect dinner. Will happily come back - as often as possible.
