| - Super creative and unique cocktail menu. I particularly enjoyed the Cocktail Flight (includes 4 of their most popular drinks for $29). It comes with a piece of paper with information on each drink. Even though I didn't enjoy every one of them, I liked the fact that I didn't have to invest in a full size drink to figure that out--and I was able to try more than I normally would.
Harvest Daquiri- My favourite from the flight. I enjoy sweet, fruity drinks and this one was just like apple cinnamon to me. Only drink from the flight that I would order a full size.
Netflix and Chill- Wrapped in a popcorn wrapper and topped with actual popcorn, this one is an eye pleaser. The cocktail itself was ok, with a little buttery taste, but a half size was more than enough.
Cucumber Basil Smash- Super refreshing, and delicious in its own way, but the flavour is not my preference.
Macadamia Mai Tai- Least favourite, didn't really enjoy this one at all. It tasted like cardboard to me. However, it came lit up with a flame, and was another eye candy drink.
After my flight I ordered one more drink, the **Clarified Milk Punch** ($15). This was a real winner in my eyes. I LOVED it. My absolute favourite of the night; and had we stayed for one more I would have ordered it again. It is a "secret blend of seven delicious spirits, exotic fruits, spices and teas and milk wash", also served with fruit loops. Simply delicious.
My boyfriend really enjoyed his Old Fashioned, which is saying something because he is pretty picky about them. It is one of the best he's ever had, and he has already made plans to come back with one of his friends for another.
We also ordered the fried mac and cheese bombs and the umami fries. The Mac and Cheese bombs were pretty good but they have curry catsup in them, which led to an "off" taste for me, just my preference. The Umami fries were good --- fries with umami spice and hot & sour mayo. Typical pub food, nothing special.
Overall, we really enjoyed the night here. It has a nice ambiance with dim lighting, making it very cozy. Service was a little slow and inattentive at times. The drinks and appetizers are also a little pricey. Our night cost about $134 for the two of us. We both would definitely come back again.
