Why does Toronto love Bellwoods? As a newcomer to the city I don't know. The beer is okay, but personally I find it quite floral in aroma. If that's your thing then that's fine but most of their offerings are pretty much along those lines. As for getting food who knows. I've tried going twice and there was a 1+ hour waiting list to get seated. There is an outdoor seating area which they'll seat you at (even in February) but that's really only a perk if you're not at all hungry and don't mind drinking outside (fantastic in the summer, miserable in the winter). But still, there is far better beer in Toronto.
