The Hose and Hound was recently sold and the new owners underwent renovations. It just opened back up to the public last week and we stopped in after helping my brother move.
Nicely done! It seems to be brighter in there but the skylight was already there, but they opened up some of the internal areas like removing the ledge above the bar - that opened up the bar.
The H&H still has the same great service and still has their Eggs Benny for Sunday brunch. The hollandaise sauce taste like it is freshly made in house and is delicious.
Check them out - an awesome stop in the neighbourhood.
