The Junction Local is quickly becoming a favourite of mine in the neighbourhood!
I shared the brussels sprout appetizer ($12), the brisket main ($25) and a side order of frites ($6) with a friend. We ordered a few bottles of cold white wine (all under $40 per bottle). The brussels sprouts were so very good and the brisket was just massive...probably more meat than any one person should consume alone - glad I was sharing it! Fries were also tasty and came with a very tiny pot of herbed mayo - definitely could have used more mayo!
We were celebrating a friend's big birthday for dinner and since there was 19 of us in the group, I expected the service to be a shit show but was impressed that it wasn't! Food came out at a good pace and servers were very good about splitting bills!
I returned on a weekend to check out brunch with the family and ordered the Local breakfast ($14), breakfast poutine ($15) and a kids' sized mac&cheese ($10). And no brunch is complete without a giant ass Cesar ($12) and a pint of milk stout ($9). Food took a bit longer to come as it was fairly busy but the manager was kind enough to drop off a few slices of bread for little ones to ward off the hangry.
The local breakfast was decent but the breakfast poutine was the winner - home fries smothered in a brisket gravy with cheese curds. The mac&cheese was also tasty but had a few spicy pimentos in it that my daughter complained about.
I would just come back to order a few small plates from their dinner menu and have a few drinks. The beer menu is quite good and features lots of local brews.
