| - *2nd Review*
Came here on a separate occasion for dinner with my sister after happy hour drinks from Trevor Bar & Kitchen on a weekday. Although the ceilings are high, it was pretty loud since the restaurant was pretty full with other dinners and people at the bar. My sister is the type that like variety when eating out, so we ordered 2 appetizers and 1 entrée to share. We ended up ordering Chicken Wings, Pulled Pork Sliders and Fish and Chips.
Chicken Wings ($12) - 1LB - Guinness BBQ sauce. Wings were not breaded, Guinness BBQ sauce was kind of bland, neither sweet, tangy, nor smoky. Comes with celery, carrots and blue cheese to dip.
Pulled Pork Sliders ($12) - slow roast Ontario pork shoulder & house coleslaw. Comes with three sliders, This was pretty good as the bbq sauce in this was much better tasting than the Guinness BBQ sauce used for the wings. Pulled pork was tender, and the coleslaw on top added some crunch to it. This item was the best part of our meal.
Fish and Chips ($17) - Kilkenny Battered Haddock, fresh cut fries, house coleslaw & homemade tartar sauce. Breading on the fish was on point, fried golden brown and was moist. The homemade tartar sauce and coleslaw was good as well. Fries were not as crisp as I would have liked.
Again, typical pub food, not great, not bad.

Came here for weekday lunch with my co-worker. Wasn't too busy when we got there. I ordered the Ontario Beef Cottage Pie. My co-worker ordered the fish that was on special, I believe it was Arctic Char.
After placing our orders, I noticed one of the chef's came out and started talking to one of the customer's behind me about Raptors basketball. I turned around and it was Jack Armstrong (Sportscaster for the Toronto Raptors). Being a Raptors fan, I had to get a picture with him at the end of our meal. My co-worker didn't know who he was but got a picture with him as well.
Ontario Beef Cottage Pie ($16) - Carrots, Peas, & Corn Topped With Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes. It was baked in the oven which gave the mashed potatoes on top a bit of a crust. Typical pub food, not great, not bad. Came with a side of salad.
Highlight of the meal was taking a picture with Jack at the end.
Most notable Jack Armstrong quotes:
"HELLOOOO!!!"
"GET THAT GARBAGE OUTTA HERE"
