| - Very solid experience, and among the upper tier of Firkin locations I've visited.
I came here with friends a couple months back, as we were on our way to dinner but were finding that most of the nearby restaurants were packed solid. Luckily, we came across this restaurant by chance, and the very polite server mentioned that they had a table for us. We actually got in just in time to see a UFC fight that was playing on the monitors above the booths.
Firkin on Yonge has a very laid-back, intimate vibe to it. Despite getting full later on, it's the rare restaurant where I can say that you could still hear yourself talk despite the noise. Everyone in my group just had a very relaxed, chill time, and we had dinner and drinks before calling it a night. Only complaint? The seating is a tad too cramped, but otherwise, no major complaints.
I had a bottle of beer, the fish and chips and the apple crumble, and was impressed by how light the batter was. It was a very satisfying meal, and the price (just shy of $30) was about what I expected.
Very solid experience overall, and I will definitely be back if I'm in the area.
Recommended.
