| - While my family and I (husband and toddler/baby) were regulars for years, I hadn't been back since just shortly after the management changed. The new menu just wasn't enticing to me, as it seemed far from the casual, cheap, comfort food we were used to and happy with.
It seemed that they had changed back to pub-style food so we ventured there recently to check it out. For a Friday night, albeit a cold one, it was really slow, and I missed the energy that the former busy mix of people provided.
Our food took quite awhile to arrive, despite the slow evening - or because of it? We ate a cheeseburger, poutine, house salad and kids' Mac and cheese. It was good. Not great, but fairly good. I couldn't help feel underwhelmed. I thought the prices were just a bit too high for what was provided. There are other pubs nearby with better food for less money (Victory, for example).
Anyway, I will be back, regardless, because I like supporting my local restaurants and, really, $12 for a burger/fries/coleslaw is nowhere near exorbitant. But I do miss the old Grapefruit Moon.
