  • This little pub may be overshadowed by it's flashier neighbour (The Longest Yard), but once you spot the giant Steam Whistle ad, just south of Belsize on Mount Pleasant, promising only "natural blondes" then you've found a good little pub with an interesting twist. I'm not too familiar with a tradition pub with a Greek twist, but I'm certainly not turned off by the thought. And, after last nights experience, I'll be back again. Wednesdays at Aristotle and McGregor's are Wing and Pitcher nights. 3 lbs of wings and a pitcher for $20 (as of June 25, 2009) is a great deal, but would it be too good to be true? When we asked our server for menus she seemed a little thrown, not because she didn't want to help us, but because the wing special is so popular that no one orders anything else on Wednesdays. Our server was pleasant and patient as we made our decision. In the end we ordered Mozzarella sticks, a small Greek salad and the wing and pitcher special. The salad was big for a small, the mozza sticks were server hot, but not burning hot, so no complaints so far. 3 lbs of wings are a lot. And, being so popular we expected some concessions to be made. They were a little light on the sauce, but not so much that they lacked flavour. They also came with 2 sides of dipping sauce (Ranch I believe) and a few large pieces of celery and carrots. Typically, on cheap wing nights other places forgo the dips and veggies, so it was good they were included. You can also get nachos instead of wings, but we didn't see anyone make that substitution. One downfall to the place is that they don't have air conditioning (or it wasn't running the night we were there). I personally didn't mind as the fans they had running did their job and I was comfortable. Plus, the heat seems to go away as you reach the bottom of that first pitcher. The menu is a mix of regular pub fair and Greek standards. The prices are reasonable (especially considering this neighbourhood where everything feels overpriced). The crowds are mostly from the tennis court and baseball diamond on the other side of Mount Pleasant, with a selection of regulars as well. If you're looking for good wings, a good deal and a nice atmosphere, I suggest you skip St. Louis and head East to Mount Pleasant.
