| - I went here a few years back for some 'grub' and I remember it being average pub food at average pub prices.
I went here again last weekend on Saturday night, didn't stay that late, till about midnight, and wasn't particularly impressed.
It wasn't very crowded, but that was actually a good thing as we weren't there to get drunk (3 of us weren't even drinking at all that night, myself included).
We played pool and foozball. The Foozball was one of the absolute worst tables I have ever seen, rickety, in dim light, with the ball getting stuck on its way in and there's a little cage around it so you won't steal the balls. It costs 50 cents a game which I guess is fine but it lasts about 2 minutes. It's also right next to the washrooms.
The pool was better however there are only 3 tables and $2 a game.
The whole experience is all very average.
Good because it's downtown and not filled to the brim with people but also not a particularly fun or exciting place. I wouldn't mind checking it out on a night where there is a party or event to see if it gets any better.
It's a solid choice if you're in the hood and looking for an average place to have a beer.
One thing they had which I've never seen before is a boxing game which is ridiculous at $1 per 2 punches. Being an average height girl there with all strong men, I thought it was a long boxing match so I hit it once, softly and got a "baby" score at 5 whereas my fella hit it and got a 738 score. Then the other people playing pool saw it and wanted to play so that was cue to get out, there wasn't enough left to do there any more.
