   Great service and food was delicious. Chairs were very uncomfortable but they changed our seats and the booth was much better.

   We were charged for a Caesar salad that didn’t have croutons nor bacon bits even after we complained about it. $7 for a side Half $%# ceasar is not right, either make it a combo or do better as a business. You won’t ever have me back not anyone I know. Rest Assured!

   Terrible service and a waste of a nice evening. We were a table of 12 none of the items on the menu other that fries and cauliflower were available. Prosecco and Wine were not available and nobody cared about it. What a terrible terrible place. Never again.

   The food was tasty. The service was not so pleasant. Most of the seating is stools without backs which also means there is no place to hang your coats. We asked to be moved to one of the few booths and luckily one was available. It would be more accommodating if they would use the long side wall to install some hooks for coats.

   Good beer selection made in house. Decent pub style food…burgers fries wings. Ambiance is fine, basement pub dimly lit. Overall good experience and not overly priced.

   Doesn’t feel like a genuine microbrewery to me. Feels like a copycat corporate version. But I might be wrong.

   Half the menu wasn't available and there was no indication of that on the website or by the staff until after we had sat down and ordered drinks. Would have gone elsewhere if we hadn't ordered already.

    In any other business, when you buy in bulk, you get a discount. Why is it that the restaurant industry thinks that it's appropriate to charge a premium disguised as a "tip" when you come with 8 people or more? I steered 16 of my friends to this place and we were slapped with an outrageous 20% "tip". It's not a tip if you charge me for it! A tip is meant to be voluntary, as in, the client should chose whether to give a tip and how much that tip should be. How is 20% justified? The service was not exceptional. Mistakes were made. There were delays. The food was not "great" by any stretch of the imagination. In January 2022 the minimum wage applicable to service workers was increase to the standard minimum wage. Before that time it was understood that a tip was to help service workers make up that gap. Today there is no gap. And BTW the standard tip for meh service is 15%. We got meh service. And why is a "tip" more worthy when serving a group of 8 or more? The 15 of us had sat at 4 different tables of 4 people each and ordered that exact same items? Is that somehow less of a burden on the servers and the kitchen than when 16 people sit at a larger table? I don't think so. I wonder if the restaurant is pocketing some of that tip... see the CBC Marketplace episode titled "Tipped off: Exposing where your tips really go".
