| - After walking around all day, sightseeing, shopping and museum hopping, all we wanted was to sit down and have a beer. At 5pm on a Sunday night this was proving to be harder than one would imagine. A sudden craving for buffalo wings struck and off we were to find a pub-style spot with simple pub food and a couple of beers.
Les Brasseurs could not have been a more perfect spot. It was like TGIFridays, but with a brewery. They had wings (albeit dry ones with barbecue sauce and no bleu cheese), they had beer by the pitcher and all of that cheesy flair decor you'd come to expect from a chain restaurant.
The service was slow (even with hardly anyone in the restaurant) and, given all of the friendliness we were used to from our Canadian counterparts, kind of aloof and non-existent.
The beers were really tasty...crisp and fresh. Because we planned on having dinner later in the night, we shared only a plate of chicken wings. They were crisp but kind of small and dry...with only a side of barbecue dipping sauce that had a bit of a kick.
While it satisfied and wet the whistle, with all of the good places to eat around this part of town, it's easy to give this place the once over and walk on. But if you're looking to spend a little money and have a filling meal with a decent mug of beer, give Les 3 Brasseurs a shot.
