I must admit, I avoided this place for a while because I thought it would be yet another pretentious hipster joint full of disappointments. While bf and I waited for a table at Barque down the street (a favourite) last night, we decided to venture down and check it out. Surprisingly, a small booth was available at about quarter to 10 on a Friday night. The place was busy but not crowded, and the staff were immediately welcoming and pleasant. The overall ambiance was not what we anticipated, in the best way possible. It's warm and cozy with great music and attentive staff. While bf had a few pints of beer, I tried some cocktails, the Ace Manhattan and a Pimm's Cup. Both arrived very quickly and were delicious. We then ordered Buffalo Fries to share, and were worried that they'd be a tiny portion. Instead a decent sized bowl arrived a short while later. While we can't rate a full-out meal here, since we have yet to try one, I would highly recommend this spot for drinks and snacking!
