We went tonight and it was nothing but amazing! Great food and the staff were so kind, making us chuckle at times. I had the burger which was flavourful with THE SOFTEST bun I’ve ever had. It was delicious. Also tried a drink called the “Heidi Bane” it literally tasted like candy. So good! My boyfriend and son said their food was great as well. I highly recommend this place and will visit again next time we are in town.

Taqueños recommended by bartender, who told me they were made fresh in house, were obviously packaged frozen and disgusting. It’s been a long time since I’ve had something that bland and processed in a pub. Going by old pics, which looked nothing like what i ordered, it seems like this dish WAS made fresh in the past.

Then the same bartender served me a beer and i asked her if that was a pint. She said yes, but clearly that glass was not a pint. I was lied to twice.

It was alright; I got the poutine with beef which was not great. Fries were clearly frozen fries with minimal seasoning, gravy had little flavour and the cheese curds melted too quickly. It was edible but I’ve had far better poutine for less. My wife had the burger and it was pretty good (though it came with the same unappealing fries).

Was expecting a bit more based on the reviews unfortunately.

Excellent arepas! I stopped by for lunch as I was staying in the area. Incredible flavours, the garlic cilantro sauce is perfection. Waitress was also extra kind and attentive. Highly recommend if you’re in the area! Also lots of gluten free options on the menu which was a plus for me.

Absolutely a must-try for anyone in the area! From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The food was nothing short of incredible; each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The atmosphere perfectly complemented our experience, creating a warm and inviting space to enjoy our meal. We left feeling satisfied and eager to return for another delightful experience. Highly recommend!
