Being located in North York around Yonge and Sheppard, makes it such a convenient location to visit. It's one of the only bars around that stretch that sells pub style food and beers. Everything else around that area are korean/japanese or random joints. The next closest pub style bar would be st louis north of Frog.
The whole Firkin franchise has recently revamped their look and now have this modern touch to their environment. They have new couches, seating, and decor. Their menus are redone and have great selection in food.
This particular location has an upstairs patio and pool table and a mini bar. Their bottom floor is more quieter and intimate.
The waitresses are mediocre as some can be rude and some can be nice. Depends on the day.
The food portions are massive and definitely worth the price you pay. if you feel like coming out full and feeling gross (but in a good way) then definitely come here.
I enjoy this place more so for the group atmosphere. I bring my teams here after a game and enjoy a few pints.
I wish they had more beer specials or team specials. They used to sponsor Toronto Sports and Social Club and provide us a platter if we bring our team and show our TSSC ID's but they don't anymore. Too bad.
Either way, for the location and convenience, it's worth going here.
