| - Having hit the Griffin once or twice a decade ago, I was excited to move to the neighbourhood to have frequent chances to work my way through the burgers list. Can't say enough about the food at the Yellow Griffin - I don't eat beef but have plenty of choice for patties otherwise, and all of the toppings combos make for delicious dinners! Plus my fav sweet potato fries and Tennent's on tap never hurts.
My fella, a newbie to this place, wondered what upstairs looked like - I didn't even know there was space up there! Beyond a great pub feel up a flight of stairs, the space has a pool table and darts, rarities in the neighbourhood. Margaret, the bartender/waitress upstairs, is incredible - she is so friendly and has remembered our names and beer of choice since our second visit! We held the fella's 40th birthday there last Dec and again, can't say enough - the munchies we ordered were tasty and Margaret juggled food and drink orders with ease for 40-50 people, impressing long-time hospitality types. A friend was looking for an impromptu venue that could host her karaoke birthday party and the Yellow Griffin fit the bill with their drop-down screen and decent sound system. Can't say enough about this place, thumbs way, way up!
