| - A fan of the Pauper's! Yes, it is nothing especial when compared to other pubs from afar, except that in fact make it a relatively cool locale when you add the sum of its parts.
A-) This place is pretty big. It's three floors of fun. First floor is the regular bar. The second floor is also a regular bar, except with a grand piano, a dance floor and a back area to book if you want/need the space. The third floor is an awesome little patio, worth spending an evening during a cool summer night.
Now, as some of you may know, I run a few social groups plus Toronto's largest Spanish speaking peer-to-peer language group, and I want/need the space. (For more on these and other shameless, self-promotional plugs, please check my profile :-p)
B-) The relatively cheap beer. I mean, let's not kid ourselves, most people don't go to pubs for the decour or the high end food.
C-) The really great patio! I have uploaded a photo or two so take a look.
D-) The pub is a tight ship. Yes, there might be the odd hiccup but the night manager, Jose is very attentive and willing to work with you to make sure events go without any hitches
E-) Special pricing on most nights! Which goes back to B-)
F-) If you are interested you can catch hockey/baseball/whatever games on one of their many large screens, which depending on who is playing, they may have drink specials based on that! Like cheaper pitchers if the Leafs are playing in the playoffs. Again, that goes back to B-)
G-) Live music on Thursday nights on the second floor!
H... I am losing track here... ;-) The piano! ...I like grand pianos and I get to play on it from time to time.
All in all, an institution of the Annex if you are willing to go for something more straight down the middle and laid back than say, posh-lite Insomnia, or dirt-hole The Beer Station.
