I guess one person's "dive" is another person's "charming, eclectic, homey party-space".
I went on election night 2011 with a handful of Twitter friends to watch the results come in. TVs were kindly switched to results coverage and the place filled up rapidly. Sadly only one server was on duty, despite us advising in advance there'd be at least 10 of us showing up. So service was a tad slow, but the waiter worked his butt off and deserved every bit of the tip we left.
The pizzas were delectable. There was one - either curried or tandoori - chicken pizza that was devine. Interesting menu...a little Mexican, Indian, and expected pub fare. The aroma of the wood oven is heady when you enter the place.
I loved the layout. Tables for between 2 and 10. A good-sized bar in a sort of sunken living-room. An upstairs is more like a loft ie: you can look down on the patrons below. Washrooms are upstairs, not down.
Bonus? Free WiFi! Once connected, the password is "Stratengers333".
I wish I lived in the neighbourhood because this would be my frequent hangout.
