Alas, something about Loons doesn't quite click. I've been here both for an afternoon beer, and an evening, um, series of beers, and while it's not a particularly bad bar, somehow it never stands out for me.
The food is fine, although they can't compete with the prices of the ethnic eateries further down Roncesvalles; they also have standard bar deals like tall-boy specials. The patio out back is quite spacious, so definitely head through the bar to there if the weather is nice, as the interior seems a bit gloomy even during the day.
