| - I went here for a Sceneopolis event last night so my review will vary from the others.
As an event space, this place was great. The decor is fascinating, from film influenced drawings on the walls to mexican decor including pinates, it really lived up to its name with its kitchy accessories. Upstairs feels like a rec room with couches and nice but cafe-style chairs. Not really my thing. Downstairs is more loungey and where I spent most of my time. Tall tables, couches, and various other places to sit made it different and unique. The bar is really neat too as the kitchen is behind there as well and it takes up a large stretch almost the length of the wall. It was neat to see cocktails being mixed on one side and food being prepared on the other.
The food was great and included nachos (again like the previous reviewers said were served in pizza boxes), peach and chicken quesadillas (yum!), mac'n'cheese and hot dogs. The event was sponsored by Canadian Club so we drank CC sours (AMAZING) and premixed CC and coke/gingerale from a can. They were also pretty good, I found them sweet but apparently they have 20 per cent less sugar than a normal mix of CC and coke.
Also this event featured a performance by Eight and Half at the back. We got a great spot on the stairs and I didn't hear anyone complaining about not being able to see. The band was INCREDIBLE and the main reason I was at the event, let's not lie.
I would love to go back and try this place on a normal night. I'd bring some friends and give it a shot. Everyone who worked there was super nice and I love, love, love unique places like Kitch. I highly recommend it - even if it's just to see what the fuss is about.
