A great little neighbourhood pub if you're looking for super casual and cozy. The drinks are very reasonably priced, and there are always daily specials for food and drink.
I'm reading a lot of bad reviews about the Jersey Giant regarding the food and I'm a little surprised. I've eaten here 3 times now and I have no complaints!
On Monday, they have a wing special - 10 wings for $10 or 15 wings for $14. Comes with a serving of fries. Both were great, especially the fries here. We also tried the fish tacos which were decently tasty.
On another day we ordered the fish and chips when it was on special for $11.99 (with drink purchase). It was a really generous portion of fish with a perfectly light crisp beer batter.
My hubby said he had the poutine before and loved it.
All in all, a solid place, but obviously for casual fare and it's not for some of the uptight patrons (which may have written some of the reviews). For example, if you know there's only one server working their butt off, cut them some slack! Big deal if you had to go to the bar to order? You never know if someone called in sick or something, and it's really not the server's fault if they're under-staffed either. Have a heart, and get up for some exercise every once in a while!
Maybe I enjoy it here more so because I am not coming in with the expectation of 5-star service (although I've always had good friendly service from all servers and bartenders here).
