| - This place is pretty decent; ended up here after a UYE event with some other Yelp Elite folks.
In terms of entertainment, they had darts, an XBox, foosball (free, because the dollar tray thing was pull-out, no security??), and some bean-bag-basketball-type game. There was also ~3 TVs that have different programs on them - since we went on Super Bowl day, one of the screens was showing that game!
Service was great & prompt - and the bartender even comes out to hang once his shift is over -- I think (if I remember correctly) he was playing the UFC game in the back on the Xbox with some of the patrons.
Cheap PBR / Steam Whistle, but I give a -1 only because of the lack of beer selection. The higher-end things like Guinness were a little expensive based on what I noticed versus other bars, but for the most part the prices were reasonable. They also have food! It's mostly some main dish with a chili side, and the cost is fairly reasonable - $6. I didn't get the dish, so I don't know if it was good value-for-money.
Other negative is lack of seating - outside of the bar and a few spillover areas, this place doesn't have a lot places to sit. It's definitely a smaller venue in general, so it may not be best if it had 30+ people. Luckily, we went when there was roughly 10-15 people.
Location-wise, it was fairly close to a streetcar stop, which went straight to Bathurst Station, which is really convenient!
Would definitely come back, and would recommend for anyone wanting a great atmosphere in their local bar!
