| - Hopefully you can trust me on this one - I work in the area, and unfortunately and stupidly have returned because it's super close and on a hot day, the beer is cold. Cold only.
More than once, the beer tastes flat, or like vinegar.
More than once, the service (usually during the day and just after work) is atrocious and beyond aloof. I like to believe a server is casual and relaxed when serving, but this place truly sucks.
Take yesterday for example: two people sat down near me (from Germany, perhaps Holland - couldn't make out the accent) at about 4pm. They ordered wheat beer, and before they could sit to enjoy themselves, the female server began by loudly speaking about what a wheat beer is - AS THOUGH SPEAKING LOUD WOULD MAKE THEM UNDERSTAND BETTER - you asshole. Then, the server asked for ID - fair enough. HOWEVER, their ID was not good enough - even though it had a valid date on it.
The girl asked, what's wrong? The server continued in a loud voice telling her that Ontario has strict liquor laws (yes, that's true), but are you seriously giving these two quiet people a hard time when all they've asked for is a beer to drink on the hottest fucking day of the year? They were amazed and flushed that a server could be that rude and curt, and in such a condescending manner.
SCRUFFY MURPHY's - your servers' attitudes are unacceptable and embarrassing.
I stopped on my way out to speak to the couple to assure them that having a cold beer anywhere else on Eglinton would be much more welcoming.
