| - The Pub itself is such a cute building! Literally its an old cottage made of stone walls, walk up the grey plywood deck into a warm and bustling Pub on a Friday night. Dim lighting, with the sounds of Rob Creamer belting out some live tunes and tearing it up on the piano keeps the atmosphere lively.
A server greets us on the way in and tells us to grab a seat wherever we like and someone will be over shortly with menus. The restaurant is sort of split into 3 small sections, the bar side, the lounge side with pool table, and dining room area with fireplace. Plus there's a lovely garden patio outback for the warmer nights.
We pick a table in the dining room side at the very back of the restaurant complete with candle light and dark wood tables.
The menu is simple consisting of typical Pub fare plus a menu of weekly specials. There is no drinks menu but our waitress advises us that on that there are 16 varieties of draught, domestic, imports, craft brew and even cider on tap.
For starters we go with
Vegetarian Flat Bread- Topped with mixed peppers, spinach,sautéed onions, mushrooms, black olives, feta and shredded cheese.
We order the half portion size and are happy we did as we are astonished to see 4 large pieces arrive on a platter. The crust is very thin but not crispy enough to hold up against the ample fresh toppings. Knife and fork are required but it's still delicious.
Mains
Pulled Pork on a Bun + Sweet Potato Fries- Select pork shoulder rubbed, seasoned and slow-cooked to tender perfection topped with sautéed onions on a fresh Panini roll.
I adored every bite of this sandwich! The meat was tender and very flavourful, not overly sauced so the meat was able to stand on its own and its great flavour definitely stood out! Loved the addition of the sweet caramelized onions and fluffy toasted fresh roll which was able to hold up the ample amount of meat.
Sweet potato fries came as a huge side, cooked perfectly crisp with a delicious garlic aioli.
Dessert
A great selection of desserts but as a peanut butter lover one particular item definitely won me over.
Peanut Butter Cup - A chocolate cookie crunch cup filled with peanut butter nougat, moist chocolate cake, and a scrumptious mousse full of chunks of Reese's pieces.
I was so lucky that I was able to snag the last slice of the pie that night! If you are a peanut butter fanatic like myself this is a Must Try! So creamy, peanut buttery, chocolately everything I require in a dessert plus it's topped with reese pieces and drizzled with more chocolate.
I was in a definite food coma at the end of this meal! Overall great ambiance, great food, great service, and great prices as well. This is a definite must if your in the east end!
FYI Coffee here is surprisingly really good, came out piping hot with great flavour. Downside is that parking is really limited as it is shared with a used car lot, so either come early or try your luck at the nearby neighborhood streets.
