| - Do you like girls who wear glasses, and boys who have beards? Then this is the pick-up place for you!
This place just fell short of hitting the mark on all three things: food + booze, atmosphere and price point. For two beers each, plus some really half-assed cheap tasting food, I don't want to spend $60. I recently had amazing food, 3 drinks each, and spent 4 hours at Snakes & Lagers, and spent the same amount of money (for 2). The beers just weren't served at the proper temperature. I liked the selection, but it was way too loud in there to get into a conversation with the server about, like, what the beers actually were? We asked about the honey beer and she said, "It's sweet," as her only descriptor, and I drank it, but it definitely would not be described as such by anyone who isn't a seasoned beer-drinker -- it still tasted pretty "beer-y" to me, and we had originally asked about a pear cider, so she should have picked up on the fact we were looking, in fact, for a sweet beer.
Food was fine but pedestrian as heck. Music was very odd (stuff I like, but not "blast in your ear" kind of music, and yet was blasting in our ears) and have the Leafs playing on a projection screen, but no tables facing said projection screen, is an odd lay-out.
I probably wouldn't purposefully be back, but I'm sure it really suits some people.
